    Mad Max, in some ways, is possibly a pioneering game in the open-world genre, but otherwise falls flat on it's ass.

Most satisfying hand-to-hand combat I've experienced in a game, great graphics and animations. Loved the vehicle motion and combat and customization options, the level design (the world is massive - lots of different areas to see), random events interrupting your business, such as storms and bandit patrols (although I wish some of them had stopped doing that after getting beat up so many times).

    While the game featured several fleshed out characters and well written scripts and dialogue,it looks like Avalanche Studios figured they don't need all that and decided to not utilize their writers' skills further than the bare minimum. This company doesn't seem to appreciate a solid, prevalent story in an open world game. There's a whole lot to do here, but there is a serious lack of that driving force that should keep you motivated to explore every nook and cranny of this amazing world.

    The main story in this game revolves entirely around Max wanting his stolen V8 engine back and he will cast aside all his emotions and any interest for some sidetracking (there is a SERIOUS lack of storied side missions) to make that happen. Consequently we now have this grumpy Max who yaps at everybody for no reason and is simply an obnoxious character.
    The world is absolutely massive, but there are unfortunately a limited number of activities: destroy stuff, beat up raiders, listen to some NPC's boring one paragraph intel, destroy convoys, fight patrol cars, race through the wasteland etc. That's what you're expected to engage in over and over, but besides yielding you more upgrades for your car doing all that doesn't have a point. Think about how that plays out: you spend hours upon hours doing chores to earn a new exhaust for your car... It's Just Cause all over again - a vast world with no draw.

    The only reason I figured a 7 instead of a 6 or 5 is because the little story it had showed potential and was executed well enough (not decently though - transitions in the story were not seamless and needed work), and the visual aesthetics were impressive. This was almost the perfect Mad Max game, but unfortunately it focused too much on the Hollywood definition of the "Mad" part and neglected the necessary attention to the other. Remember the first Mad Max movie? Strong story that makes you root for Max all the way through. This game simply doesn't capture that effect.    … Expand

    - Nice graphics. Although nothing revolutionary, but landscapes look nice
    - Well ported from console - Well made, in 60hr gameplay I had only few glitches, that were resolved by restart - Car chases (and harpoon is dope) - Rather large and detailed world (my favorite is airport location) - Some comment that story is boring, but i'd say it fits nicely in post-war setting (not    Pros:

    - Car chases (and harpoon is dope)

    - Some comment that story is boring, but i'd say it fits nicely in post-war setting (not that you can expect some complicated story when all you need first is to survive), look at the movies.

    Cons:
    - My major issue is that game is extremely easy. If you didnt started to play games yesterday, theres no challenge here, contrary to the fact that this is post-apocalyptic world, where survival should be hard.
    - My second largest issue, is that game apparently, is targeted at younger audience - tons of car customizations, collecting different cars, boring side missions, meaningless tasks to reduce threat in region, lots of scaveging locations just so you can fight more. This should have made world not feel empty, but there are more effective ways to do that (Fallout 2?).
    - Car physics. Although it is fun to chase convoys, it feels so unnatural that you cannot destroy your car entirely, flip on roof or die while crashing in full speed into a wall or something. This would make chases more intense and challenging.
    - Self-guided missiles? Lots of them? In the desert?

    That being said, the game is ok, i had fun with it.
    My advice if you are not casual gamer - skip side missions, dont bother with stronghold projects (except where it is required to keep on), just keep with main mission. The game will be a little more challenging this way.    … Expand

    Сюжет
    Очень понравился в большинстве аспектов (кр. продолжительности)

    Графика
    Красивые пейзажи, много мест, в которых хочется сделать скриншот, так же была завезена жёсткая оптимизация, сейчас это можно назвать новшеством (я понимаю, что тут по большей части пустыни, нет огромных городов, но всё же)

    Геймплей и доп. контент
    Тут есть нарекания, причём большие.
    1. Игра от создателей Just Cause, и вы можете не поверить, но это не шутер. Здесь по факту стрельбы нет (несмотря на дробовичок). Поиграв в таком жанре я понимаю, что без перестрелок-укрытий-перекатов это выглядит слабовато. Был бы это шутан - игра была бы более "Win"
    2. Как тут убивать врагов? Давить и в первую очередь драться. Драки - огромная часть геймплея, ни одна игра, где геймплей основан на рукопашном бое (офк без мечей) не могла похвастать успешностью, и я эту унылую часть геймплея назову самым большим гейплейным провалом данной игры
    3. Сайд квесты интересные, но опять же их мало, как и сюжетных
    4. Небольшой мнимый диалог:
    - Чего тут много?
    - Сталкания
    - Интересно?
    - Нет
    5. Контент, связанный со сталканием по количеству "+" где норма, "-" где перебор:
    +Пугала
    +Снайперы
    +Конвои
    - Мины
    - Лагеря (подробнее о 5ом пункте узнаете из самой игры, каждый момент муторно описывать)

    Музыка
    Я играю с очень тихими настройками, но как я понял её нет, рёв мотора - единственный звук сопровождения, в данной игре. Я бы это к минусам не отнёс

    Хорошая игра, вполне сгодится как проходная, была бы здесь шутерная механика - игра бы могла тянуть на 8-9 баллов (в зависимости от реализации), но в плане безшутерности она дала интересный экспириенс. О прохождении не жалею и могу посоветовать поиграть всем, но если вы любите игры (в плане сталкания) ассассинс серию, фар край, то это не для вас, тут большой перебор с этим, отсюда невозможность получить, так называемую на PS, "платину", для получения ачивок за сталкание вам потребуется часов 60 однотипного геймплея (без учёта всех остальных целей)

Mad Max doesn't take may risks and excels on most aspects. There are two forms of combat: Driving and Fighting. Driving is where this game thrives. The mechanics are solid and easy to get used to. You can kill other divers and destroy enemy cars many ways. You can ram into them dealing more damage depending on the car parts you have, you can use a harpoon and tear off a piece of a car or pull the driver out of the car. You can use the slingshot to instantly kill enemy's and take out fuel tanks/tires but it has very little ammo so it's not recommended. There is a sniper for taking out opponents from a distance, and the thunderpoon which is a explosive harpoon. Well driving you have the help from a hunchback named Chumbuket which easily is the best character in the game. He fires the harpoon and fixes the "magnum opus" which is your car. He loves that car more than anything and you can't help but share the enthusiasum as you dive across the open desert. Fighting is pretty dull. I consists of a lot of button mashing but when you deal enough damage to fill up max's rage meter, Max does a lot more damage. You need to be on foot to take out Scrotus camps and other outposts. The camps have you fighting a bunch of enemy and either destroying feul tanks or destroying something else. In some special camps there is a forgetable boss fight that is always the same. The story is very hit and miss. Compared to the movie it's not as good but it isn't bad either. What makes the story not as good as it should be is Max. I have never seen a charecter in a game that was this stuborn. He very selfish and does all of this just to get his car back!!! His back story is very vague and I found myself caring about Chumbuket more than Max. The other characters are forgettable as well. Scrotus, the main antagonist, appears in the intro cutscence and you don't see him again till near the end. Most characters have no development or personality what so ever. It's not so bad considering the location of the game but it wouldn't of hurt. You have the ability to customize your car to your preference, you cant have a fast weak car, a strong slow car, or a little of both. There was a ton of options to choose from and really added to the gameplay. You can also upgrade your fighting abilitys but those didn't really add much. The problem is fiding the scrap metal to upgrade. Very few things reward enough metal and it can become repetitive searching for scrap all across the giant map. The port is great!!! I was worried after the port failure of Batman: Arkham Knight but this is one of the best PC ports of all time. Tons of customization settings and a FPS that never went below 60 and sometimes went in the 100's sets the far beyond any other PC port of this year. Overall it's a enjoyable experience. Is it great, no, but I still thing this game is worth a look for those interested. It represents the Mad Max universe well and fans of the arkham series should fine this game enjoyable as well. Mad Max gets a 7.6/10… Expand

    As others have already mentioned, this is one of those grindy, repetitive open world games. The story is not that great and all the non-story tasks are basically just copy/pastes in a different location. Destroy x oil tanks, kill all enemies, collect x this, etc. The combat is a watered down version of the Batman games with not much variety even when you've unlocked all the skills.

This is basically just a jack of all trades, master of none type of game. They just put together gameplay from GTA, Assassin's Creed, Batman, and Farcry, but it doesn't do anything necessarily extraordinary. I would say the only thing I commend them on is the car battles.

    Don't even get me started on the poor optimization of the PC port. Seems like they only tested the game on a few different hardware configurations. I have a clean install of Windows 10, all drivers upated and latest BIOS firmware, but the game crashes randomly. I've installed 4 different versions of the Nvidia drivers and even lowered my settings to normal, but the crashes still occur. I know my video card (GTX570) can handle this on high settings because it runs smoothly on high up to the time it crashes. I can run MGS V on high with no problem. I think I've just come to the conclusion that WB Games doesn't have a good QA team for their PC ports. I mean look at the debacle with Arkham Knight. They had to take the game off the Steam store and push it back due to the technical problems.

    (Update 9/29/15) - The latest patch has resolved the random crashing I was experiencing so I've bumped my score up from a 6 to a 7.    … Expand

    The Engine is crappy (Assassins Creed engine), same goes for the collectibles - Assassins Creed style, like 1000 to collect for better Gear/Stuff. Story is way too short for that Game, also this Game got only 2 patches and now it doesn't gets updated anymore- but it definitely needs some. Not worth the money, better go get it for free in the Web....

    Cons:
    -Somewhat repetitive
    -Didn't permanently catch interest
    -Is a run-of-the-mill open world game

    I bought Mad Max on steam right after watching Fury Road a few weeks ago. It was a far more impressive and fun game than I expected. I anticipated a bad, poorly written clone of the movie. Luckily this was not the case: it evokes the feeling of the film while being its own thing.

    The game was fun, especially with the car combat. The combat on foot was typical 'batman' combat, and it worked at least, even if it wasn't as fun as the car combat. The car upgrades were introduced slowly but consistently. The game has a definite polish and I don't think I encountered any bugs in my time playing.

    In most aspects, Mad Max is a very typical open world game: you drive around, reduce enemy influence, and take over areas. This was fine. Nothing special, but better than you'd expect from a movie-related game.

    The only complaint I have is that Mad Max did not hold my interest for long. I primarily started playing after watching Fury Road and I quickly lost interest. I will probably return eventually to finish the game, but it won't be any time soon.    … Expand

    Long anticipated Mad Max for more then 2 years has finally seen light of the sky with really high hopes of something unique and very good quality developed by already well known Just Cause developer team, Avalanche Studios.

    You play as disgruntled Max as “lone wolf” with his double-barreled shotgun through endless sand dunes in apocalyptic atmosphere set somewhere in future, yet without remaining technology other then vehicles and scrap to present main value in this world. Third person action game where you fight for surviving until very last breath, without place for love and kindness left only with memories and not promising future with only one remaining quests; to find the “Plains of Silence”, a fabled land where he might find solace from his madness.

    Weeks before official release developers has made couple announcements both written and during podcasts about interesting and not much seen auto-generated map with endless driving and much more unique experiance of free roaming. Endless nothing is not so endless after all. First thing which majority of players tried is exploring beyond map limits where on most sides you would hit invisible wall or start loosing health very fast for no reason whatsoever while in only couple directions you could drive for more then couple minutes without any single camp or in fact, any object.

    With that being said one of most unique features related to exploring for this year felt in water and we are left only with remaining action based side of Mad Max. Vehicles are matter of life and death where Max on very begining of this a bit more simplistic story; is left without vehicle, the Interceptor, having a goal to build his ultimate car, called the Magnum Opus. He is seeking a revenge and his car, but nothing more which lower importance and stakes of his goal from perspective of a regular player.

    Most of the time action and fighting is based on vehicles fight so upgrading vehicle and extra features as armor or harpoon to tear out doors, wheels or even drivers themself will be handy and unavoidable if you want perfection yet again not so necessary since game will force you in particular missions to get required upgrades before you start them. Shotgun and sniper are only Max’s weapons which are available while driving, you can use shotgun for destroying other cars but for sniper use you need to switch positions with Chum and get into trunk. Male fighting system on the other side is based on Batman series, completely identical with known attack/counter/dodge mechanics where physics are more realistic then previosly mentioned series where personal Max upgrades once again come handy and helpful for quicker and safer resolving of fights. More health, armor, increased attack damage and couple more attributes you upgrade to a couple locations marked on map which represent mysterious man who will help you in achieving that.

    Despite very good fighting physics of Max and AI, it’s still a bit out of space. Impact with cars and tries from AI to run you over once when you are of car and you wait for Chum to complete repairment will often finish with laugh instead trying to escape and dodge vehicles. Despite high speed or perfect trajectory of cars Max’s body will often be pushed on a side without falling or having any moves which should indicate that he has just been run over by a car. Jumping is possible but it will be used only on places where you might get stuck by accident and it’s required to get out while most of the time you will use “use” button for starting animation where Max will climb alone which kills immersion for most of the gamers.

    Whole Wastelend is devided in couple territories where eventually you meet main guy, work along with them and get fortress as safe locations for your car. Whole point of those territories is to explore and do all things which would reduce threat on that same location. There are threat levels and by destroying camps, sniper towers or scarecrows where you might need some of high upgrades. Some cleared enemy camps will be replaced with your allies and you will be awarded through time with random amount of scrap, which you also get in every location by exploring. You use scrap for Magnum Opus upgrades or for things in previosly mentioned fortress which gives you random features and perks, like refilling your ammo belt and others. You are also able to fast travel without any cost between fortress locations including some other explored points on map which will reduce length of this adventure by a lot if you decide most of the time to use this feature.

    One more side of this adventure with really huge potential is not fulfilled with surviving mechanics.

    Mad Max is one solid and very mediocre game but probably biggest victim of unused potential this and probably even couple years back. Great optimization and idea but yet no story, much repetetive goals and things to do without space for immersion or getting a bit more into game.    … Expand

    At first glance, Mad Max is a fantastic open-world adventure teeming with things to do. The excitement can give way to boredom because the short story can’t hide the required grind to advance. Still, there is a plethora of different dusty environments and strongholds / outposts, while the detailed landscape is full of things to do and discover.

    Total size on my hard drive: 32.8 GB

    ++ Optimization is stunning. One of the best optimized games of the past year or two.

    + Graphics are great. Light, dust, haze is a great icing on a highly detailed cake. Clouds look a little low-res at times, but the skybox looks fantastic in general (if you like sunsets / sunrises, there are some great screenshot opportunities).
    + Punchy sound design. Explosions have great impact.
    + Great story - gritty and grim - but it’s short. Do yourself a favor and complete the Wasteland side-missions in addition to the main campaign. You’ll get to know the factions a bit better and the game feels more complete.
    + The wasteland is wonderfully detailed. Rocks, caves, forts, pumping stations, strongholds, outposts – even though it is a dusty wasteland, there is plenty of visual variety.
    + Customizing the car. From the body style, to the suspension, engine, armor, and more, you can really make the car you want to play the way you want.
    + All the unfinished missions and quests return after finishing the main story campaign so you can take your time, explore the wasteland, and 100% the game if you want.

    +/- The hand-to-hand combat is a riff on the Batman Arkham combat system with fancy finishers but without gadgets. It works well enough, but nothing outstanding about it. (If keyboard & mouse is your preference, be sure to have a 3-button mouse.)
    +/- The game is a grind for scrap, which is used for much-needed upgrades. If you hate grinding, walk away. If you enjoy exploration and looting, then Mad Max is an amazing experience.
    +/- Child slavery content warning. There isn’t much, but it is there.

    - Checkpoint saving only. Awkward in a sandbox game.
    - Driving mechanics are sub-par; floaty and imprecise, the smallest bump can send the car flying, leaving Max facing the wrong way in seconds as the enemy speeds off into the distance. Not good in a game that focuses so much on driving. The Gastown race almost made me rage-quit the game.
    - Enemies are endlessly re-used.
    - Grinding is required. Upgrades are sometimes hidden behind completely clearing a region of threats.
    - Glitchy menus. Hitting Escape to view a new log entry would frequently result in seeing the menu headings, but no images or text. Switching to another menu then switching back would usually fix the issue.
    - Messed up mission progression. Need to build the “Jack”, a special class of car referred to as an Archangel. Well, the next part of the mission wouldn’t trigger, no matter what I did. Checked online. As it happens, I had parts on the car that were a level HIGHER than what was required to progress. I had to un-equip all upgrades on the car, and re-equip only the upgrades the game told me to, and the rest of the mission triggered properly.
    - Some quests that were supposedly optional disappeared without warning because I chose to continue with the main story first. All the missions return for completion after finishing the main campaign, though, so there’s that.

    It was a challenge to bring Mad Max to an open world game, and Avalanche delivered an incredibly gritty, detailed world and a mature story. While the story itself is not open-ended, there is clearly a chance for sequels - with possible franchise potential. Fans of Mad Max and open-world explore-and-loot games should give it a try – especially since it now discounts during sales to $10 or less. There’s a lot of value here. Recommended.    … Expand

    Expondré mi análisis en varios puntos, los cuales son difíciles de catalogar como positivos o negativos, ya que este juego hace cosas bien y mal en el mismo punto.

    - Empecemos por la historia: No es una obra maestra, eso desde luego, pero dentro de lo que cabe cumple con lo que busca, marcar objetivos y hacernos entender el porqué actuamos de esa manera. Aunque tengo que añadir que en un momento de la historia, hacia el final, esta se vuelve muy caótica y, bajo mi punto de vista, mala, ya que intenta hacer lo mismo que en las películas, volver al punto de retorno (no explicaré nada mas de esto, ya que no quiero hacer spoilers).

    - Gráficos: Sin duda, se ve que han dado prioridad al mapa (escenarios, tormentas de arena, coches, etc.) antes que a las personas, ya que lo primero se ve espectacular, pero lo segundo deja que desear. Sin duda, un punto a destacar son las tormentas de arena, que son completamente espectaculares.

    - Rendimiento: Tengo una 560 TI y he jugado a la máxima calidad posible, rondando los 60 fps, nada mas que añadir.

    - Jugabilidad: Bien, este es el punto más controvertido. Es un Sandbox de libro, y como tal, tiene todos sus puntos positivos y todos sus puntos negativos. Por supuesto, ser de este género le pega muchísimo a Mad Max, pero han querido alargar tanto el juego, que lo han llenado de puntos y misiones secundarias a más no poder, para añadir simplemente horas al juego. Estos puntos no añaden nada interesante, se basan en lo mismo, asaltar fortaleza, hablar con los habitantes del páramo, investigar zonas y asaltar convoy. Son divertidos pero no cuando son una y otra vez iguales.

    El juego se podría dividir en dos partes, cuando vas en coche, y cuando te bajas de el. Aun existiendo estas dos partes, sin duda todo gira en torno al coche (conseguir mejorar el vehículo todo lo que puedas). La parte de Max es muy parecida a un Batman, pero bajo mi punto de vista no te ofrece la suficiente variedad como para que sea interesante.

    Tanto el coche como Max pueden mejorar con chatarra (la moneda del juego) pero he de decir que sus mejoras son extremadamente caras para lo que deberían ser, se nota que han subido el precio para añadir aún más horas al juego.

    Añadir que cuenta con ciclo día y noche, es bonito y esta chulo, pero hay misiones que solo se pueden hacer por la noche y... ¿adivina que? NO se puede avanzar el tiempo de ninguna manera, y el ciclo no es corto que digamos (alrededor de una hora).

    Recomendación: No es un mal juego y se suele encontrar rebajado en un montón de lugares. En un principio iba a votar negativo por el, ya que acumula muchísimas cosas negativas más que positivas, pero sin duda también da muchas horas de diversión cuando ves cómo poco a poco mejora el coche, las batallas entre vehículos, los asaltos a las fortalezas... el juego sin duda es repetitivo, pero si no buscas hacerlo al 100%, te va a ofrecer muy buenos momentos.    … Expand

    + Beautiful world. Seriously, this is one of the top points in the game;
    + Hella fun to enter in the convoy fights;
    + Some strategy in the camp invasions (if you want to be strategic, that is);
    + Combat system is ~OK~.

    Cons:
    - In case you opt to do the side quests, the story takes to long to engage. Also, the repetition makes it nearly impossible for you to keep up on the side quests;
    - Even though the center characters turn out to be nicely done at some point, the game displays a lack of interesting characters, which leads me to the worst point of the game (imo):
    - There is no variety on bosses. Seriously, the "camp bosses" are all the same guy. Maybe he might have a different skin (a little bit of paint over the mask or something), but it is the same guy, with the same strategies;
    - Despite the car progression being nice, the handling is a serious problem. It took me a while to get used to the steering, since it is very common for you to lose control of the car and crash against some rocks. It sucks when you are in the middle of a car fight and you just stop because you lost the track and hit a rock;
    - The world might be beautifully made,but the lack of variety makes it feel somewhat dull and boring;
    - Regarding the convoys and car fights, refer to con 4;
    - In case you opt for not being strategic in a camp invasion, you can just go on, with your face exposed, and smash everything inside. This COULD be a pro, if the camp invasions weren't all so damn repetitive;
    - Combat system is ~OK~.

    For me, the whole problem lies in the repetitiveness. The lack of boss fights or variations is the most unacceptable part. I mean, come on, this is Mad Max! There is just so much to be done! So many character design ideas! It wouldn't cost an arm to think a little bit on terms of variety, especially on the side missions.

    To summarize, if you are into open world games, roaming around a wasteland with a badass car (using it to obliterate other cars) and smashing random and irrelevant faces with your fists, then this game is for you. If you are looking for some depth and content variation, I suggest you skip it. The game feels very like every Ubisoft game's style, with 4 or 5 types of missions that merely change a dime.    … Expand

    Pretty good open-world game with the thematic of the classic movie saga, it's pretty fun, the driving is cool but it gets sorta repetitive.

    Как игра по фильму, она отличная. Добавить бы сюда разнообразия в геймплее, населить локации чем нибудь интересным или просто архитектурным и ей бы не было цены. А так мы имеем всю туже гринделку, захват вышек, собирательство всего и вся. А ведь у игры не плохой потенциал, прокачка как у персонажа так и у его авто, весь обширная, открытый мир, фото-режим, красивая картинка, но вот просто захватывать вышки и ездить по пустому миру, надоедает да смысла в этом нет, про сюжет говорить не буду, он здесь такой же "стандартный" Но мне было приятно в нее играть, да и концовку не много удивила (момент с девушкой и ребенком) жаль их конечно.    … Expand

    В общем и целом игра страдает тем же, чем страдали Тени Мордора год назад.

Вторичные квесты надоедают, громить базы тоже самое, управляемость автомобиля вообще катастрофа.. Боевка однообразная,    Сразу говорю мне понравилось.

    Боевка однообразная, в оружии нет выбора, что впрочем легко объяснимо Апокалипсисом.
    На этом плохие впечатления заканчиваются, последняя глава резко ускоряет темп повествования, события захватывают и не дают оторваться. Конечно не "Анна Каренина, но история очень даже интересная.

Это данность, с ней можно или смириться, или пройти мимо.

    Reminiscent of B-tier games of old, 'Mad Max' is better than it has any right in being. From compelling characters, satisfying driving and vehicular combat mechanics, through to a generally well executed and weighty brawling hand-to-hand combat system it is worth some time.

    Unfortunately, like most open-world games, it does overstay it's welcome. It's colour scheme is generally drab (though this can work in its favour during certain set pieces). It's infiltration missions are copied and pasted across the board. The AI is reminiscent of sentient potatoes. And there were missed opportunities for both base and colony management systems (the offering being extremely bare bones).

    - Falsa sensación de supervivencia.

    Is it a bad game? Absolutely not. On the contrary, Ubisoft's open-world template is perfect for churning out market-friendly games that tick all the boxes of "What People Want." Or, perhaps, "What You Want."...And honestly, Mad Max's formula is still to some extent "What I Want." Just not as much as a few years ago.

    Mad Max is this year’s equivalent of Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor – a really decent open world game that will not disappoint the fans of the franchise and will win over some undecided gamers, but will not be inducted into the industry’s hall of fame alongside Skyrim, GTA, Black Flag or The Witcher 3.

    Mad Max is a missed opportunity. The exceptional depiction of the Wasteland, the chaotic nature of the post-apocalyptic society, the excellent technical qualities and thrilling vehicle fights are held back by the mundane melee combat mechanics, the loose story, the repetitive nature of secondary objectives and the overall low-level challenge.
