"Oh no, they took away my ability to quick scope with full stability after running one kilometer in full gear while standing up! How dare you! (Insert Greta Thunberg here) How dare you make it harder for me to aim down the sights while the ground is shaking because of a mortar barrage is literally coming down 10 meters behind my position and it affects my ability to launch a proper counter attack! How dare you the game developing company that promised it was going to make a game centered around squad communication and squad tactics that involve things like actually having to work together, using the roles of the squad to compliment each other and not just lone wolfing it around the map and flipping the bird to your squad mates! What a horrible game studio for actually coming out and doing what you promised the kickstarters and the people who supported this game when it came out wanted from you! Why don't you produce garbage like battlefield 2042 and Call of Duty so we can eat up that slop like the pigs we are!"

Hope you like the infantry update because that's not the only realism update coming to squad. There is more coming and this game ain't dying it just got 10 times better!

Let me break this down for you. Six Days in Fallujah is a slow paced tactical shooter that is intended for you to work within a four man fire team to achieve what ever goal the game decides to throw at you. This is not Call of Duty where you can dress your gun up like a barbie doll, or Insurgency Sandstorm where you can lone wolf the entire map. This is a full on simulation of squad tactics that will punish you for playing like other FPS games. This game is also trying to convey the stories of the men who fought in that battle which means you are going to be issued the equipment the Marines were issued in the early 2000s. This means no uniform customization, no weapon customization or attachments. Marines at this period in time were lucky to be given RCOs for their rifles before the federal government decided every Marine should have them.

Gameplay is the main reason you will be coming back to this game. You are walking into enemy held territory where the enemy is dug in. They know every room, and every hole they can hide in waiting to pop out to get you. You are fighting a 360 degree battle at all times. Enemies react to your attacks, and make no mistake they won't hesitate. If you fail to suppress they will suppress you instead. If you suppress them they will back off to flank you or if they are boxed in switch to full auto and lash out at you like a cornered animal. They react to your flashlight indoors and outdoors too. The glare of the light will often make them fire in the area you are moving into before you arrive. The languages they speak also differ. The enemies were not just native to Iraq. They came from all over the world. You will hear Farsi, Arabic, English, Russian, Spanish, and bits and pieces of other languages I have yet to make out. The missions are random and the side objectives are also random. The map layouts change every mission and every restart.

Now about the price. You might be thinking that 40 dollars is steep, but it actually does you a large favor in return. Most trolls won't buy the game to start griefing the community. Players that I mentioned earlier that like to run and gun or lone wolf are punished by the gameplay of the game that they will rage quit, and because a large part of the community is made up of active duty and veteran military members there will be a lot less stolen valor wannabees around. What you have left in the community are people who legit want to play the game the way it was made to be played. The passed few days have basically cleared about 90% of the community to being solid players who want to work together to achieve the end goal in every mission. There is also a roadmap made by the developers for future updates. They are also going through the forums to take suggestions on game mechanics and bug fixes. I have a feeling Highwire will come out on top.

It was a good run for this game, but it's kinda dead now. The servers that are still up are die hard units that want you to play every which way, or get mad at you when you talk out of turn. There are no bots like in counter strike source to give you some entertainment at least. This game is just truly dead. Go buy Hell let Loose they have an active player base that's growing, and a lot less toxic players.

The Developers some how managed to destroy their own game! Mods from the workshop are no longer showing up in their launcher. There was a way to circumvent this but another update killed that too! I can't recommend this game due to these issues. This was major ♥♥♥♥ You to the Xcom community. Also with these new updates the vanilla game is starting to have more glitches and issues. The game was fine two years ago why change it? 2K you ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up big time!

I came to this land with nothing
But a hope and a dream in my eyes
The kingdom at war would all bow before
The king whose coming was nigh

Together we fought against brigands
And looters the scum of the world
But soon our steel would be clashing with that
Of Lords and barons and earls

So ride forth into the fight
Take your arms and take your courage
Let none stand in the way of your crusade

The cities that stand on high
Shall go up in flames
Calradia shall fall
I’ll see to it all
With Mount and Blade

First in line were the Vaegirs
And though their archers eclipsed the sun
We fought in the shade until we had made
Sure that the battle was won

And the Nords, they didn’t know better
Their men all so proud of their hair
But what use is a beard when our army draws near
To your town and destroys all that's there

The cold and treacherous north
Stood no chance against my power
In the snow did they all cower ’till they were slain

The lands all covered by snow
Went up in flame
Calradia shall fall
I’ll see to it all
With mount and blade

Nor were the steppes safe from slaughter
The Khergit Khan wept at my knees
Despite riding high, drew my bow and then I
Shot him down with the greatest of ease

The sands of the sarranids wept and turned red
With their blood as they charged to our blades
The silks that they wore were not meant for war
In the way that our hearts had been made

The dunes they rippled with fear
And the steppes posed little threat
As their fate their people met, in light or in shade

The sun and the sands of the east
Went up in flames
Calradia shall fall
I’ll see to it all
With mount and blade

And what of the Rhodok crossbowmen
Or the Swadian cavalry
They must have known they’d met their match
When at last they came to face me

And so the world is in my grasp
And the crown is mine at last

Now merely to mention my name
Spreads fear throughout the country
Just try it and you’ll see
The legacy made

And all that’s been left in my wake
Has gone up in flames
Calradia is mine
For all of time
With Mount and Blade

-The Emperor of Calradia

I would suggest this game to people who just want to get out of the counterstrike cancer comunity. Also it adds some realism and other aspects. If you buy this game you will have trouble when you start don't worry we have all been there. Just watch how others play and copy them. Also very great maps and custom servers. Have a look I think you will enjoy.

*Played Road to Independence, and fought off the British
*While killing the British the United Provinces declare war on France and Me
*5 turns later United Provinces take France
*2 turns later Spain declares war on United Provinces and takes over France
*3 turns later My army is fighting the United Provinces in Europe
*5 turns later I wiped them out
*10 turns later Sweden is at war with Russia and destroying them
*5 turns later I become somewhat like the UN and march on Sweden
*2 turns later Sweden declares war on Denmark and takes their capitol
*10 turns later I take Denmark's capitol back and gives it back to Denmark
*2 turns later Denmark declares war on me because I am allied with Spain and the Cherokee are allied with Denmark and Spain attacks the Cherokee
*5 turns later Denmark sends an army to America and takes over Boston

10/10 Would be attacked by Denmark again

It really is a good game I play it alot.
