bit-tech Review
"You see, Frontlines isn’t a bad game at all. It’s actually quite a good game. There’s a good balance to everything and the game always makes it possible to salvage victory from the jaws of defeat if you have a good understanding of where to put your tanks and helicopters. If you get a group of people working together then it can take on an enjoyably military feel, especially with the inclusion of artillery and airstrikes.
However, with the history behind Frontlines of the boy-wonder modders who’ve struck the big time, we have to admit we were hoping for something a little more interesting. Kaos Studios is a developer built on a team of amateur modders from outside the industry, so the logical if misplaced hope is that bringing them within the industry could lead to a few interesting and new ideas.
But that hasn’t happened. Instead, the result is that Kaos has used their knowledge of how games are played to create a well-balanced shooter. What they haven’t really done is introduce any fundamentally new ideas. There’s nothing here to set Frontlines apart from any other game like it on the market – in fact, it feels very, very similar to Enemy Territory: Quake Wars pretty much all the way through. So, while the game itself isn’t flawed in any major way, it doesn’t really do anything to stand out in the crowd either." - 23rd March 2008
