Demolition Pro Online Reviews

Really unimpressed with this one considering the developer's previous game [i]Garbage Truck Simulator[/i] is such a solid title. This honestly feels like a high school game dev project gone wrong, not sure what its creator was thinking with releasing [i]Demolition Pro Online[/i] in its current state. Note as well if you're the sort to be concerned about it [b]this game requires an active internet connection to be playable[/b] as you must play on some obscure server to advance and unlock later levels for play in offline mode (offline mode has no save feature nor ways to earn XP either, rendering it pointless). Gotta love that hidden DRM, right guys? The starting map is interesting, having to rip down an old multi-unit garage situated close to a newer garage you can't harm and beside a garden shed you must avoid. You're defaulted to a water hose to reduce dust and a small wheeled excavator for the demo work. Sounds good, right? Mmm not really, considering the outriggers on the excavator don't work so bashing on the building causes the machine to tip wildly and sometimes even roll around...into the other garage you're supposed to leave alone. On top of switching between camera angles to make sure you don't hit something you also get to fight the controls because they're...hilariously bad. Did I mention the audio? It's all in German and the game starts with you being yelled at by some guy while you're in a portapotty because...I have no idea. This feels less like a simulator and more an exercise in frustration so I'm boarding the earliest train to Refundsville. Big yikes.
