    Granted, I haven't tried out the multiplayer aspect (nor do I plan to judging by others impressions of it), but this is perhaps the most generic shooter I have come across in quite a while.

The first 'warning sign' which the user will notice as to the quality of the game is that there is no real support for widescreen resolutions, despite being a widescreen option in the graphics menu. This was initially surprising due to nearly every new release game supporting it for the past two years, however a look at the graphics engine quickly explained why this so. Put simply, the game looks like it came out five years ago even on the highest settings. Trees are cleanly cut in half when shot at while identical, badly textured enemies abound. This wouldn't be an issue were it for the gameplay itself being of decent quality, however it is not. The enemy AI is as basic as that of Doom, with the enemies either standing still and shooting (and missing) at the player or running in a straight line towards them, thus making them incredibly easy targets to pick off. There is no recoil in the weapons nor are they even any interesting. Hence, it is possible to merely run forward and shoot at any enemies one encounters without worrying about taking any damage; the one time I did was from an enemy only a meter or so away. The overall feeling is that of playing any generic FPS with cheats turned on; as a result the game has a complete inability to build or maintain any tension or intensity whatsoever. That said, I did have some minor fun with it occasionally, in a 'so bad it's good' kind of way. However, the lack of any challenge in the game means that it gets incredibly boring quickly. Having reasonably enjoyed both the original DF and Black Hawk Down it seems as if this series has finally gone down the drain after circling it with Xtreme, with this one being so bad I was humoured by it.… Expand

    NovaLogic, you really need to stop making these low budget crappers for just the ultimate fanboys of the delta force franchise, as it is truly getting old and no one is going to buy this crap. Ai is non-exsistent, terrible graphics and next to no new content. You have really pulled the last straw this time... Not even a graphics update since the old DFX back in 2004?

    I purchased it on Steam because of fond memories of Black Hawk Down.. and thus even the pleasure of throwing this game out with the garbage has been taken from me, it will forever disgrace my account.

    Graphics are from the 90's. Bad playstyle. The beta was bad... this is worse. For alll the Nova lovers out there... Nova said "Gotcha" for this purchase. Early Nova games were classics.... this one is too.... classically BAD! Save the $... there are way better fps games out there right now (and more coming) to spend your hard earned cash on.

    Terrible game, don't spend money on it, you have to pay xtra in order to get a crappy cheat protection that doesn't work. Nova is going backwards instead of forward, charging players for extra features that they don't inform you about. The game engine is over 6 years old, weapons look like a 10 year old did them in paintshop.

Plenty of Free game out there that offer plenty more than this one plus they don't hit you with hidden cost, Nova wont even let you post on the forums for this game unless you BUY a GOLD membership. All in all, with membership costs, this game will cost you 60 dollars, what a joke for a reworked old game that is worst than the first one they released. BUYER BEWARE.… Expand

    Few people seem to notice that this is merely a graphical update to Delta Force 2 w/ more multiplayer goodies. If you've got a laptop w/ an integrated graphics card I highly recommend it as it is a fun game and it's the closest to a BF2 or CoD4 as we're gonna get until developers start offering lowered graphics options. Glad to see a lot of indie guys doing this already. If Few people seem to notice that this is merely a graphical update to Delta Force 2 w/ more multiplayer goodies.

Glad to see a lot of indie guys doing this already. If you have a good graphics card, don't bother unless the price comes down and you just want a great, nostalgic action shooter w/ a helluva lot of folks to frag. BOTTOM LINE: Until the price comes down you'd be better off getting the original Ghost Recon from D2D. With all the add-ons it's only $15 and then you've still got all the great MODs to play with and a great community.… Expand

    I've played a few shooters in my time and this is without doubt, the worst game I've ever played. I wouldnt bother with this game if it were free. It's a crude cobbled together game made from older novalogic games and adds no new content what so ever, it's not even at the level of some of the JO mods that the comunity has made for free.

Oh and if you want to play on servers that have more than 16 slots you must pay for a "gold" subriction- monthly, that includes privately hosted servers so get your wallet out. Dont worry though, you'll be lucky to find 16 players online at the same time.
    This company is looking to milk it's few remaining fans (who are still dreaming of the old days of DF) for everything they got before dissapearing of the face of the earth.
    Be warned, this game is for novalogic fanboys only.    … Expand

    Quite possibly the worst shooter ive played in my gaming career. I was a fan of DF 1 2 3 LW BHD and JO. But seriously novalogic, extreme 1 and 2 are absolute garbage. Stay away from novalogic kids.

    Horrible game balance. Massive hit boxes. Overpowered vehicles to the max. Do not buy this game. Shouldn't even be installed on your computer. Waste of hardrive space.

    I had hopes on this game. I installed it, started to play, and played for 10 minutes, and then I exited it. I deleted it, because this game is not only bad, It is a "xtremely" disappointing. While the maps are huge, the gameplay is lame, and It's a copycat of Battlefield. So, this game is created in 2009, and I can't believe it, because, graphically this game is quite horrible.

    This "xtremely" forgettable first-person shooter doesn't excel at anything.

    The only thing that's "xtreme" about this game is how extremely mediocre it is. The missions are uninspired, the authenticity is lacking, the servers are under-populated but, hey, at least it looks dated, right?

    Xtreme 2 succeeds as a budget game - it just doesn’t cater to any audience in particular. A lack of focus is the overarching problem with this decent budget title.
