Pro's:
With the new patch, EM5 is now playable. Before the update, I used to get about 10 FPS on Medium. Now I get 30-40FPS on High.

The vehicles, the models, the interface, and the events all look and feel amazing.

The missions are very fun and very challenging.

Over EM4, the fires in EM5 are now more managable, as they have health bars. This allows you see which fires are being extinguished and which fires are increasing in size and strength.

Overall a great looking game.

Con's:
Despite the aforementioned improved performance, the game seems to return to the 10FPS (low performance) about 1hr into gameplay. For me, that isn't an issue as I usually want to play for an hour at a time, however the issue is still there.

At points, the vehicles move through traffic via the shortest method possible. Sometimes, that involves driving in the other direction to make a turn, for example. Rarely, the vehicle will go through a building (only happened to me once on a mission).

Sometimes, if you have vehicles still in the Area of Operation when starting a mission (after buying all of the vehicles required for the next mission), they will remain there after starting the mission and will not be usable. For example, I had finished a callout, then bought the final vehicle to start the next mission. I did not send my vehicles to the HQ. The Ladder truck (which was deployed at the time) stayed in the AO, lacked a ladder, and could not be called back to the HQ or moved. This was fixed by reloading the game.

In conclusion, it is not a perfect game. But it is an amazing game that is definitely worth the buy.
