    Базовый клон Call of Duty, но со своими небольшими фишками и отлично проработанной атмосферой. В 2023-м вполне актуальный сеттинг. Учитывая, что в игре будем противостоять бандитам с империалистическими замашками.

    Worst and unfinished story, bulls**t dialogue and deaths, f**k KPA concept and Korean language, awful and terrible AI difficulty. Gameplay is terrible. I feel so rage and anger while I play this game. Don't buy this. This is the worst game than Dark Souls and Roguelikes. Instead of this game, play Crysis 1 and kill these KPA. PS. The lucky one is I played the crack version of this game.

    Сыро, скучно, пресно. Игра недоделана, даже не смотря на то, что с момента релиза прошло ооооочень много времени. НЕ НАДО ЭТО ПОКУПАТЬ.

    Esse jogo não me prendeu de forma alguma, porém tem muitos desafios que proporciona ao jogador conforme sua época de lançamento.
    Hoje em dia não consigo mais jogar nem para lembrar é um jogo que passa rápido demais história boa mas curta e cansa demais ao jogar ele.

    Очень недурный, крепкий боевичок. Сделан по лекалам колды - много зрелищных сцен, эпика и взрывов.

Лор подается, в основном, в виде записок, раскиданных по уровням, что немного сбивает темп игры, но читать их интересно сам же геймплей не отличается от колды и шутеров тех лет, хотя и пытается быть разнообразным и оригинальным, например, в одной миссиии нам дадут поуправлять вертолетом, а в другой будет простенький стелс. Оружия немало, хотя оно не то чтобы сильно отличается между собой по мощности, а вот стреляет каждое по-своему. Самая крутая схватка происходит в конце на мосту, где максимум концентрации экшна на метр, очень впечатляет. Проходится игры быстро, наскучить не надоедает, а за событиями интересно наблюдать.

    The interface is wonderful. You have so much information immediately available to you. Google Maps always has a minimap in the lower left corner, which gives you a good overview of the area. Getting information about people gives you a clear, clear window. Hacking offers a menu with easily recognizable icons, so you always know what your button presses will do.

    [The Level Designs look great, it feets the game perfectly as an occupied future America.
    The combat feels fantastic for an FPS, I would be surprised if it didn't. Developing studio is kinda familiar with the FPS scene.

    The dialogue during the game was kinda lackluster. For me, it kinda feels like fillers between cutscenes, not that memorable, and not that interesting most of the time.
    The cutscenes will make up for the dialogues in between the cutscenes, and the cutscenes is great, but predictable some of the time.
    For me, the voice acting feels fantastic.

    The graphics look great for a 2011 game, but it will feel outdated in 2021, but that is to be expected.
    The Animation looks fantastic and feels smooth.
    The Motion capture looks fantastic most of the time, but it did feel off at some points during my playthrough.
    The Voice-Sync feels off most of the time, in and out of cutscenes.

    I did encounter a bug during the mission “The Wall” in part 2 of my PlayThrough Series of Homefront.
    Basically, Connor got stuck on a large piece of rubble, and I could not progress while this bug was happening. I will classify this as a breaking bug as i could not play the game normally or even progress at all with this bug.
    I also encountered performance issues, at times the game would freeze for a few microseconds, but long enough to be noticed. I noticed this happening while the NPC character was opening/closing doors or doing other interactions while gameplay.

    The plot is textbook, occupied USA, occupants evil, many games have done more or less exactly the same thing before and after when Homefront did it.
    The End was kinda eh.
    The Character Development was great tho, ill give them that.

    The replayability is not that great, there are some servers up for the multiplayer, but you might have a hard time finding matches as most of the time there are 20-30 ppl playing this game. Even less actually playing the multiplayer part of the game.]

    "6/10 – Average.
    These recommendations come with a boatload of “ifs.
    It's only held back by a few issues (or stiff competition).
    Not always the best choice, but it can get the job done.
    There’s a good game in here somewhere, but you’ll have to know where to look, and perhaps turn a blind eye to some big drawbacks.”

    Not a bad gameplay, the game for 2011 was not very relevant, but after 2014 and even more so now it looks very serious and causes dozens of deja-vu with real during the passage. The game still has multiplayer, and there is online for a comfortable game.

    Very generic shooter, not that I didn't have fun with it, but it just doesn't innovate both in terms of story and in terms of gameplay.

    Homefront is one of those games that tried to cash in on the success of games like call of duty and battlefield only to fall flat on its back but it has some small good ideas that i liked that kept this game from being terrible

    Story: concept is good , similar to red dawn (the remake more so ) the north Koreans invade america witch in 2011 was a very real perceived threat. you play as    Homefront is one of those games that tried to cash in on the success of games like call of duty and battlefield only to fall flat on its back but it has some small good ideas that i liked that kept this game from being terrible

    Story: concept is good , similar to red dawn (the remake more so ) the north Koreans invade america witch in 2011 was a very real perceived threat. you play as a former helicopter pilot turned revolutionary recruited for your skills . so far so good , my problem with the story is just how quick it is , the story takes just over 4 hours roughly 5 and there is little to no character development beyond tropes. All the dialog sounds awkward and cheesy but at least its decently acted every plot twist feels forced and feel like a lazy attempt to be emotional . at the very least the story is an excuse for action but i think that this story would be better lent to an open world game ( i say this having never played homefront the revolution yet )
    Story: 5/10

    World building: Alot of this games world building is done in the opening cut scene and that's boring even if it dose have some creative concepts and i think the politics surrounding this event are plausible , mexico closing its border to Americans in the games lore made me laugh a little bit because of how ironic that is now. i think this game's world should have been fleshed out more in game rather than its opening cut scene
    worldbuilding: 7/10

    Graphics; some animations are awkward and stiff. the style is ok its fits the plucky resistance in a dark almost sci fi world , textures are meh at best , the graphics just feel sort of average like the devs wanted to emulated the style of call of duty but couldn't quite match it but the graphics do their job like a middle class working man , dose whats expected of them no more no less
    Graphics 5/10

    Gameplay: the game feels like a watered down call of duty , but it dose some little things to set it self apart like guns have multiple reload animations , a person wont reload the gun the exact same way every time and so far homefront is the only game iv seen that has done this , its a small detail i really appreciated about this game. guns don't pack a good enough umph , recoils like non existant and explosions and physics feel sorta flat and life less and that should be the most important thing in an action game.
    gameplay 4/10

    Sound design: the music is good but ultimately forgettable, guns sound like they are shooing plastic bullets , the voice acting is decent but not amazing . the in between radio broad casts was a cool idea that elevated the world building a little bit and helped make loading screens not so tedious
    sound design: 6/10

    A interesting story but rather average game, it's very linear, just follow people around on a map and do exactly what they say, no freedom to explore or go where you want.

    It's ok to buy on special if you want a quick fps you can complete in a day or 2, thankfully I got this for free as the game is too short and not worth the full price of $29.95AUD for it.

    I have a hard time recommending the PC version of Homefront. It's a decent game with a unique take on world events, and its fresh and fun new ideas for two-mode, bot-less, online only multiplayer kept me coming back long after I'd waved adieu to the single-player portion, but the performance and playability on this platform is far eclipsed by the stability found on consoles.

    It's dreadfully average and far too quickly finished, providing nothing more than the most basic type of fun on the first run-through and little incentive to revisit. Not because it's broken; just because it's boring.
