As regards franchises, a certain consistency of feeling and tone, and a certain degree of quality is expected. No One Lives Forver and NOLF 2: Espion Way H.A.R.M. Were the two furtive espionage action games. They were known for stupid characters, awkward gadgets, a story, and the satire of spy movies of the '60s So when a game is positioned as the official NOLF 2 prequel comes, you might think that this trend will continue, right? Except this time from the male point of view.Contract JACK It starts with you tied to a chair and is about to be executed style. You break, beat a guy to death, take his gun, and proceed to throw rubbish to everyone in your apartment. There is a lot of blood spattered and vague after wave of enemies appearing identical in appearance to activate a spawning point.Unfortunately, this game
is in a nutshell. Gone are the gadgets, history, most humor and satire, conversations the most random ear, while Cate Archer, stealth and scattered through the level recordings. Jack is described as a contract killer - in fact, J.A.C.K. This means "Just Another Contract Killer", but only one weapon in their arsenal comes complete with a silencer and a machine gun. No knife, piano wire, sleeping gas, silent gun or even a blackjack. Instead, a shotgun with incendiary handle pump rounds a Tommy gun, an AK-47 can pull rounds that put people on fire a plasma gun, fragmented grenades and a crossbow and a pistol is obtained hand- Explosive shells. Jack is not a murderous contract. This guy died incarnate.And you need this huge and brutal burden of killing, because you fight more enemies in the first levels, I remember fighting around NOLF or NOLF 2. After a while it becomes an indefinable symphony of the Dead, and enters an
area in which they are viciously reduced again and again and again, flying with the shotgun, changing the gun when you run out of ammo, changing the submachine gun and fill them full with lead - There is nothing like NOLF. Jack barely exists as a character, and his client, Volkov, is present only as a two-way radio connection at the end. Although there is some really funny dialogue J.A.C.K. Is not a coherent element, and is not worth obstinate by dull and constant combat.The levels are incredibly linear, artificially forced their way in one direction. There, the invisible Wall in the outdoor levels, where you can not climb a modest slope on one side. (It does not allow outer levels to be quite obsolete and blocking terrain). There are boxes and tall fences your angel of death is ironically unable to overcome. It
door after door door that exists only as a difference in the texture of the wall (except open doors unexpectedly burst with people running towards you shots).When the game allows exploration, things get confused and frustrating because its compass almost never have a destination in it, and no map, and its list of goals is desperately vague. "Kill type", "Rescuing type", "Exploring the database". Yes thanks.Let us return to arms for a second. First, your only weapon is useless as a silent weapon reduced to silence, as spawn triggers sent to enemies to come after you before you might have heard or seen it. The machine gun is low compared to the AK-47 and the Tommy gun, but it is difficult throughout the game to have a
constant amount of ammunition for these weapons. Boxes of ammunition store a small random variety of towers, so you have to kill people with ammunition that you want to use for that weapon. But the amount of ammunition they have is also random. It could be a full staple, or there could be a left turn. Usually it is closer to one.
