![]() But there's really no need to beat a dead horse. If you've got something new to show me, do it. I'm not sure what the need is for the constant reiteration of both of those things. Marty is a SUPER macho man and Rust is a dedicated detective, but he's totally weird. However, the show itself hasn't been really good at dealing with the two detectives' personal lives. I have also found the parts about the Marty and Rust's male relationship interesting. Thus far, I have really liked the portions of this show where actual detective work is being done. But at this point the two male leads aren't really holding up for me, either. I think this story is about the male perspective, and since these particular men don't really seem to give two shits about women, it makes sense to me that the female characters are portrayed with absolutely no depth. But, according to reports, Nic Pizzolatto allegedly plagiarized a large amount of his work from several authors and including Thomas Ligotti. Nic Pizzolatto admitted that horror writer Thomas Ligotti had a major influence on HBO's 'True Detective'. Is there really nothing else there? He's just a Southern "good ol' boy" with no depth? We leave THE ONLY depth in this show to Rust? I mean, I don't know that I have the exact same problems with the lack of strong female characters that some critics have had thus far. HBO's 'True Detective' is in hot water after being plagiarism allegations surface. ![]() Poor Marty is seeming like a caricature of masculinity. I really found the Maggie/Rust sex implausible. This episode was not as strong as the previous one.

![]() A typical mission will have a few objectives that must be completed for the mission to be a success. Your missions include such tasks as destroying certain buildings or objects, capturing a particular enemy soldier, and/or freeing a fellow commando, for example. ![]() It is just much tougher this time around so you really need to have honed your skills from the original game before jumping in here.įor those unfamiliar with the original game, the Commandos are a group of World War II era specially-trained soldiers that are known as the "Dirty ? Dozen." You are in control of all six commandos, each of whom specializes in a specific skill, but not all commandos will participate in each mission usually only three or four Commandos will be at your disposal. For the most part, if you played the first game, you know what to do here. One new addition that I did like was being able to grab an enemy and move them around at gunpoint. The enemies for the most part are the same, but there are also wild animals that can get in your way too which is kind of fun. Once again, Commandos Beyond the Call of Duty has you needing to make use of your commando’s abilities to complete missions. In all honesty, not a ton of new stuff was actually added here which is a bit of a shame and the stuff that was added did not exactly break any new ground. The Spy is kind of cooler in that he can steal uniforms and use them to his advantage. ![]() You do have a few new items such as smokes that you can leave out as a distraction and handcuffs to, well you know handcuff people. Some of the commandos do have a new ability that they can use. There is not exactly a ton of new content in the game. These missions in Commandos Beyond the Call of Duty are hard as nails by the way! While this is a stand-alone expansion, I would not suggest you play this to see if Behind Enemy Lines is for you! This is made for people who are already experts at the original game. |
