Is anyone getting this game?  Its from the makers of Frontlines Fuel of War.  I like Frontlines for the most part, although a bit a buggy.  But, the story for this game was written by the same person who wrote the original Red Dawn.  So i'm interested in seeing how this works out.

Storyline seems neat but the graphics (even in the trailer where they want it to look better than the game itself) are badly outdated.

Looks like frontlines...

KAOS was started from some BF1942 or Desert Combat guys, either way, they are stuck on the idea of vehicular combat, which is cool, except that from the trailer, it looks like the maps are tiny.

That was the point that I found the most ridiculous.
Heck, even the story of Russia invading Alaska in BFBC2 was ludicrous. So how would North Korea be able to do that.
EMP weapons seem to have replaced nuclear weapons as the new deus ex machina.

And the rest is your generic, post-apocalypse, no-government, fascistic, neo-Wild West story like it has been depicted in so many games and movies before.

Oh its the North Koreans? I thought it was the Chinese. That's even more ludicrous than the "North Korean Superpower" in Crysis.

I find it charming in the same way that the humans won for no apparent reason in 'Independence Day.'

I honestly am getting fed up with these storylines. It's an energy crisis, some bullshit high tech aliens invade low tech humans, all that stupid stuff is just plain boring

Hate to break it to everyone but it seems this game is just a bad CoD clone.

http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/02 … homefront/

Until you start playing. Which so far seems to offer disappointment. Homefront, against my optimistic expectations, appears to be another Modern Warfare clone. In the same way the disappointing Medal Of Honor was another Modern Warfare clone. Which is to say, the first three missions are about running around just behind the action, wondering if you really need to be there.

But the first three levels we’ve had access to ensure that you are always in last place. At points this becomes so pettily enforced that you start to feel like the hated kid in class, the one who gets pushed and barged out of the way, even by the nicer kids. If there’s a trapdoor to jump down, a passage to explore, or even doorway to walk through, your two NPC buddies will literally shove you aside to make sure they get through first. If there’s something cool to do, like throw a filing cabinet out of the way, then you just stand there and watch. Want to open a door? Learn your station, scumbag. And tragically, the same counts for cover.
