A more accurate simulation game would be to have the player run around nonstop to minor medical calls in the terminal or false fire alarms. Once the player arrives, they stand around until paramedics give the all clear or they stand around waiting for the fire marshal to reset the alarms... depending on the situation. Then every 30 or 40 years of in-game time, a plane crashes. When this happens, the player must aim a foam cannon at the plane for 4 to 5 hours until the fire is out completely. Then they go in and retrieve corpses. This is followed by years of counselling for PTSD.
I'm not sure if these changes can be patched in.
the developers decided to make the game more story driven. That's why there is no freeplay in this game. But beside the story campaign there's "mission mode" where you can play all the missions again and try different approaches to solve the missions.
but without a freeplay mode after the story where i can drive the ladder,EMS truck or the battalion chief truck its not as good as it was before....
the story is short and i ended the game in like 2 hours ....
17,99 Euros (on sale) is not worth for this little amount of differnt option to do.
no ladder, no ems missions, no gimmigs like drinking coffe repair and refill the cars, no ventilator, no wheel pressure and all that stuff
no special and new ideas for Pantha like piking trough the plane wall and start an watterattack from outside inside the plane
The graphic is really a bit better and the bluelights are really nice!
but all in all i would say skip this game maybe next time there will be all of those nice gimmigs and the freeplay mode again and hopefully also a multiplayer :)
PS: Sorry for misstakes im from germany ;)
Overall the game was a disappointment.
Cons:
less than 2 hours of actual gameplay
no freeplay
deviated from the rest of the series
limited interaction
advertised the use of vehicles we could not even drive or use
lost it's origonal enjoyment
pros:
story was good
it is firefighting which is a plus
american vehicles were nice to see
Thoughts:
I remember asking telling at the end, well that was a fun tutorial.
I have alot of hours invested into this series and it's spin offs. I quite enjoy these games becuase they let you roleplay as a firefighter and they give you FREEDOM on emergencies and at the station. But with this game I understand they wanted to do a story, which is great! I liked the story and the timeline in it, but it was very short and just left a bad taste in my mouth after finishing. At the end I wasn't thinking, yay I survived, I was thinking is that it?
The american vehicles looked great for the first time doing it. But I remember a blog post about the american ladder truck and a big article on it. But how can I appreciate it when I can't even use it? We were stuck to the same few vehicles and we drove them for about 10 minutes total in the game and then that was it. Agagin I understand the story and I like how it was done, but for games like this you NEED some sort of either freeplay or mission editor or something. There is NO replay value. And trying to give us a chance to replay the missions that are only 4-5 minutes long is just insulting. The old games had the option to be assigned to any vehicle, you could maintain your vehicle and workout and sleep and just be on a shift at the firehouse. All that was needed was after the big fire you could have just had the player on shifts at the station now. It was the little things like that, that made this game fun. Heck the game before this even has shears for extrication.
The hype on this game was so big. This company has a good fanbase that was happy with the products in the past. I dont know if the aim was to try and get a more wider audiance or what but I feel like this upset alot of the actual fans of the series and they might not be coming back. I will give the next game a shot to see if this developer can fix this mistake of a game, but I wont be having high hopes. This game was just a poor product that was released. Not the content mind you, the contant we had was great. But the rest of the game that was missing is what is making everyone upset.
Emergency! series like emergency 2013 and 2014 made this mistake too. they deviated from their older games and realized that the fanbase didnt like the changes. This game just did that. You guys deviated from a formula which was getting better every series and made the games much better and just put out a product that not very many people liked and will probably lose their support.
I love these games and I love this developer but this was a mistake.
Ansich finde ich die Story ja schon gelungen Aber das freie Spiel Hätte ich niemals rausgenommen das hat die Serie ja ausgezeichnet.Ich war auch immer ein Fan der Reihe und als Fan muss ich sagen das das spiel so n bischen ein Schuss in das eigene Knie war.Ich habe auch irgend wo mal das Gerücht gehöhrt das dieses Spiel das Lezte der serie ist, ebtspricht das der wahrheit? Ich hoffe ja nicht Fileicht versucht ihr es mal mit ner Freiweligen Feuerwehr Wäre doch mal was anderes wo die alamierung wirklich noch per Sierene oder pager erfolgt n versuch wäre es doch wert.
PS Die storry ist wirklich kurz und die misionen noch mal zu spielen hat keinen sinn das wäre sehr langweilig
MfG
the story is sort of boring i stoped mid way i like free roam where its you wotever your put on and you respond to fires and you putting the fire out non of story you work your way up not some pre determend story
Or at least remove them!
