Gonzo 1982 Commandos | FAST • Series |
Could you clarify what you mean? Here are a few possibilities:
- Softline called it "unplayably brilliant… a masterpiece of hostile design."
- Electronic Games awarded it 2/5 stars, citing "unforgivable RNG dependency. A single pistol shot from off-screen can end a two-hour mission."
- The Vietnam Veterans of America newsletter controversially praised it: "Pike captured the second-by-second terror better than any Pentagon training film."
Real-Time with Active Pause (RTAP): Actions unfolded in real seconds. The player could hit the spacebar to issue orders, but time would only freeze for 8 seconds before automatically resuming—simulating the pressure of a patrol leader’s decision window. Hesitate, and your squad would default to their last standing order. gonzo 1982 commandos
