Crossfire: Legion Reviews

Not bad, but only buy when on sale!

miserable stealth missions -> uninstall

BUY AT YOUR OWN RISK: Great game with a lot of potential. But as of the time I am writing this, this game has been abandoned in a buggy state.

I just ignored the bad reviews...if you came for the campaign...it is GOOD! Give it a shot!

"This is not the last time you hear from cipher" I guess it is. Abandonware. Very, very easy and short campaign.

Played the campaign, good old RTS feelings.

The easy AI is the Hard AI in basically every other game. So congratulations, the bots are unbeatable. Uninstall.

This could've been fantastic with cool and interesting untis as well as great graphics and art design. What kills it though is its deck system, lane styled maps and poor gameplay. With the deck system you get heavily restricted basically to 3 infantry options, 3 land vehicle options and 3 air vehicle options (with there being 4-6 units for each category). If you try to break away from the meta it ends up punishing you heavily, unlike say in Red Alert or Starcraft where you can still break away but meta units are still there if you need them. The maps as mentioned earlier are pretty nice visually, the tropical one is one of my favourite maps in an RTS game I think, but what ends up killing them is they're all structured around lanes. There are some kinda open spaces on some of them but you still can't really flank around and it basically ends up being "who has the more units" instead of tactics winning fights. There's also not many of them and there's no 4v4 maps. The gameplay is also kinda poor. The commander system had the potential to be interesting but the abilities end up being incredibly limited, for example the last match I only used one ability twice and that was it for the rest of it. Each units also have abilities but I found myself rarely using them because fights were so quick and most units died so quickly (infantry especially which are pretty useless in this game outside of your first units). The game feels like it was designed for Esports rather then more casual gameplay. If it did a few things different this could've honestly been great and perhaps even finally a new successor to Red Alert and Starcraft but that's never gonna happen now. The game hasn't updated in nearly a year now with either no players or at most 9 (on a Saturday). If you're really interested play the demo first but I wouldn't even bother honestly, just go play Starcraft 2, Red Alert 3 or some other RTS.
