Don't buy. It will be a repeat of bugs, removed features, and censorship.
After seeing how Commandos 2 Remaster was handled with the bugs and censorship, Kalypso Media continues justifying my boycott of their games. This is sad as I have enjoyed their games but I can not support their business model on these issues. They develop a game and remove key aesthetics that make them what they were in the past when I enjoyed playing them two decades ago. They also refused to fix several bugs and removed features that were in the original game. This will be just like last time of a cash and grab with your money.

Kalypso Media I may have enjoyed your games in the past but there is no point in me buying from your business and I will continue to warn any developer or potential customer from your business practices.

Commandos 3 HD - Remaster gives you the ingame option to play with historic symbols.

I mean, this game will be in GamePass which you can get for 1$/1£ so I think we can easily try how bad it will be [especially that for example for me C3 is completely unplayable on my PC as some textures (mainly enemies) are invisible].

Commandos 3 : Destination Censorship

Even if i had ignored the censorships and hoping it would work fine, Kalypso had recently doubled/tripled all their regional prices all around the world. For my region, all their games are a little more than double now, no way im giving them money now.

I've been boycotting the buying of EA games for over a decade now and they are starting to crack under their own failures finally. Pretty much I've started the policy of stop buying AAA games from publishers I don't support.

Hi,

Starting with Commandos 3 – HD Remaster, future games of the well-known Commandos series will allow players to decide if they want to play with or without historical flags and symbols (e.g., swastikas as insignia for historical German units).

In doing so, we follow the calls from a large part of the community for immersion and realism in Commandos and for this to be brought in line with common practices in many other movies and series. With this additional gameplay option, we aim to bring a higher level of authenticity to the title.

We would like to emphasise that we continuously and strongly condemn any form of discrimination and racism, and any forms of government that support and foster this. It is of utmost importance to us that the implementation of historical flags and symbols can only happen if we can exclude any form of glorification of anti-constitutional symbols. In the Commandos series, players can only play as one of the Commandos who are part of the Allied Forces fighting against the regime of National Socialist Germany. Thus, we can ensure that the flags and symbols only serve to create an authentic representation of the Second World War.

We hope that in giving players a choice, we can offer an option to experience the tactical gameplay of Commandos 3 – HD Remaster in the best possible way for each member of the huge Commandos community.

Actions speak louder than words and your publisher's actions have tainted any potential good will you may try to speak. Also your company's reputation isn't that great to begin with with your company's only other solo developed Steam released game sitting at Negative (18%). Your company's contract assistance development portfolio doesn't give much hope for this either. With these facts, you've been essentially set-up for failure by your publisher and the suits of your company.

You could prove those of us critical of this game development wrong but that is not a bet I'm willing to make with your company's history and the developers history.

Good direction,we as a players are all people,me as polish player got friends from Germany and Russia and there is no hate speach or anything like that, for me is important original content and historical symbols etc.Also would be nice to get historical symbols and coop mode for commandos 2 even as dlc. I cant play it current state due is too disgusting to even touch.

Make this retroactive for Commandos 2 HD Remaster (if you haven't already), and all'll be good.

Until this is retroactively done for commandos 2 I will never be giving you money and I know many others who feel the same. Censorship is another form of lying.

If history offends people they should stop repeating the same decisions.

don't support microsoft mate. they never had the best intention for gamers and they never will.

Idk how people can hate on epic for a year long exclusivity deal but they keep ignoring the real looming threat to game owners which is microsoft.

THIS.

I didn't buy commandos 2 HD remaster, or any Kalypso game for that matter. Untill commandos 2 & sensorship is fixed. Otherwise these are indeed just words.

How is it a threat may I ask? In my opinion GamePass and other types of subscribtions are great for newcomers as well as those who are still thinking should they buy the game or not. If you really waiting for the game then for 99% you will buy it and support the dev. For me thanks to these subs I tested and bought at least 10 titles in past 2 years. Otherwise I would skip them due to the fact I still wasn't sure about them.
