  • Easy Red 2 is an indie game made by a small team of just a few people yet it somehow has more content than other games made by big budget studios with multibillion dollar corporations backing them...AND it just got a new update with a FREE new Pacific campaign and a new paid DLC that adds in the Battle of the Bulge and the French army as a faction.
    Welcome to my review of Easy Red 2. Leave a LIKE if you enjoy and check this game out. It's currently on sale!

    I want to add that this game does AI squads better than any other AI squads in any other game I have ever played. They actually fire at the enemy, they're actually valuable, they aren't fucking braindead. They don't just stand in the open for no reason when there's cover nearby, they actually take cover, sit in windows, behind sandbags, in a trench etc. They will also pick up guns from dead soldiers if they run out of ammo, and they generally just make their own decisions. Like if you aren't playing as the squad leader, the AI takes over and will order artillery strikes that actually hit the right locations, and direct the squad where to go. Your AI medic will actually revive you if he gets the opportunity. AT gunners will engage tanks. Flamethrowers will advance aggressively to the front and roast the enemy. It's absolutely beautiful. The AI is just fantastic.

    One of my favorite details of the game are the dog tags you can take from dead soldiers you either find or kill! Sometimes I'll be blazing around with my M1 Garand and yank a dog tag off a dead German and realize I just killed an 18 year old. I'm almost 21, and seeing that age makes me stop and just think, 'If I was him, I'd already be dead.' It sorta makes me reflect on how young these soldiers were, and how short a life really can be. Even if these are just AI bots, once you give them a name and an age, it humanizes them.
    And whenever you get killed in game it flashes up on screen what your solder's name was and the years they lived and died, like how Battlefield 1's intro did (which I love). You actively played out the last minutes of a man who's whole life lead up to that point, and now boom, one mistake or sheer bad luck and he's dead.
    It may not impact as much on others, but it certainly does on me as a history nerd. It actively shows how young men like myself fought and died in their millions, and the soldiers I played are apart of that mass slaughter. I could easily imagine myself as one of those men, joining with bright youthfulness and naivety only to be killed in Normandy, Stalingrad, Guadalcanal, Monte Cassino, any part of the war. And the game ties that in rather well. War is Hell.

    As a long time player you forgot to mention how to revive both wounded allies and enemies you drag them behind cover or risk getting shot yourself. A very realistic feature.
    Also the fact in this game you can take prisoners some virtually no game does at all. If you are surrounded by enemies your character will surrender on their own which is cool.
    And the third thing is how you can take not just weapons and ammo but full on uniforms from dead enemies and allies. This means in multi-player you can ecieve enemy players by dressing as one of them and sabotaging them before they realize you ain't one of them. A feature not seen since commandos strike force on the ps2

    Easy Red’s strength is the fact it doesn’t focus so much on one thing and forget others. It does most things “good enough” and doesn’t try to oversell a certain feature. But as you said, it can be fairly janky at times. It reminds me of the older shooter sandbox games of the early 2000s and has a certain charm to it. The ability to take POWs (or not 😳) is also a really cool feature.

    Yeah man. Easy Red 2 is basically what I always wanted out of Battlefield 1942. I've been playing it since early 2021 and just bought it on a whim, but I've been hooked since and I've seen how much progress has gone into this game. Marco (the developer) is planning to revamp the AI in 2024 and also the Kos map. So that it won't feel as open ended and sparse. Also, I don't know anything about Italy's laws regarding the swastika, but the developer Marco is Italian and I think he lives in Italy, so maybe he had to censor it due to some sort of law? Similiar to Germany. Idk. That seems like something that would happen in an ex-Axis member country.
    Also I don't think you mentioned the workshop support!! This alone is why I can't stop playing Easy Red 2. Some of the modded maps and campaigns are actually better than the ones created by the developer! I'd say that Utweiler, Germany is probably my favorite modded map so far. It basically features a large scale U.S. offensive to take the town with armor and mortar support. You can absolutely level the town, but once you take it there is a twist with a massive German counter offensive including a particularly tough Tiger 1 which absolutely wrecks. I think last time I played the map it took 3 Shermans to take out. Felt like something out of old school Call of Duty. But yeah the mods are definitely what keeps it alive as you basically have unlimited content.

    In the case of regional differences involving the Manji being replaced by the Iron Cross, that was true in Germany up until a few years ago, when it was decided by lawmakers that video games are a form of art, which means they can have something many Germans consider offensive and be protected by law. Thing is, that happened just months after the release of Wolfenstein II The New Colossus.

    • @sunbather1576
      @sunbather1576 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      True but you left out half of the story. You still have to apply for a "test" at your own cost at the respective German "youth protection" institution and they will decide whether the symbol serves historical purposes or is part of an artwork or it is just an exploitation.
      You can just not do that but risk getting your game banned in Germany.
      Hence, the cheaper version is to just not show the symbol.

      It is not just Germany. Other countries where it is outright banned or otherwise restricted in its use are numerous, meaning that you should indeed use an alternative symbol, such as the Iron Cross or Balkenkreuz in order to avoid any such issues.

    Been having a ball with this game. Didn't know it existed until last week and it's exactly the sort of modernised BF1942 I've always wanted (and even has a sort of NPC swapping featire like the in the console version of BF2!).
    Two downsides not mentioned in the video that could (and hopefully will!) Be addressed by the dev:
    1) The UI is atrocious. Plain text with super awkward justification over transparent grey rectangles for the most part. It would do wonders if the dev contracted a UX person to come and clean things up, because it really brings down the presentation a lot and makes it feel cheaper than it should.
    2) Zero context or historical descriptions. It would be nice if the campaigns had at least a little paragraph explaining what's going on and who's involved. Even better would be briefings for each mission. Just the barest of context like in BF1942 wpuld make the experience more coherent and a tiny bit educational.
    (Bonus extra - let me pilot ships like in BF1942! Let me ram aircraft carriers into each other you cowards!)
    All the postives mentioned in the video far outweigh the negatives though. It's a lovely game that picks up a torch that's been dropped for far too long.

    Update: The patch enabling the swastika is out on PC! It will take ten to fifteen days for Xbox/Nintendo to review it before it gets released to console players.

      From Wikipedia: In the SCRM 35 Italian ordnance designers created a compact grenade that was designed to explode on impact, but it also gained a reputation for being spectacularly dangerous. The Red Devil earned its nickname for two reasons- the Italian ordnance colour code for High Explosive was red and when Allies found the grenades unexploded, they sometimes had the habit of going off after the fact.

In addition to Zombie mode my favorite thing was how half of the game focuses on the Pacific Theater. Too bad more games don’t focus on that aspect of the war. There’s plenty of stories that can be adapted into some cool campaigns.

    Definitely impressed by the game, even as a guy that's not a big WW2 nut (so some of the details can go over my head). It was a little jarring to see some of those more simulated aspects (like a minimal HUD with no ammo counters), but that's more a symptom of me not playing simulation games as often and simply needing to adjust. Maybe they could keep it more generalized like they are in the inventory with "mostly full" and stuff. I just hope they don't push the mil-sim aspect too hard and make it Arma WW2.
    I do like that you can play as both factions for battles as well, to get an idea of what it was like for both sides. Though it is a shame that *that flag* isn't present for the Germans despite this aiming for realism, even more odd since as stated before, you can even play as them and get immersed in their side of things but that censorship is still present. I'm not suddenly going to become a sympathizer upon seeing it or something, and the iron cross as a stand-in would by proxy hold the same meaning anyways.

    I was thinking, as you were talking about your major gripe at the end. I completely agree👌 and also hate it when currently in World War II media and games choose to censor the “infamous symbol”. I was wondering though if someone could make a mod that adds in the correct flag and adds the symbols back to the German uniforms, if that would be possible? Therefore it wouldn’t affect different regions of the world that aren’t allowed to show that symbol.

    About the paid DLC's. I brought the game just for Stalingrad DLC. While buildings are ok at most representing a real one in USSR they sometimes mashed together creating a windows or doors that blocked by a wall of other building since assets are just put beside each other. Another one is already mentioned voice acting. In Stalingrad DLC voices indicate what happend and if you got hit or enemy and sometimes soviet soldiers will scream that they got shot after hitting an enemy. It's not much problem for people that don't speak russian but it can be confusing hear it and find that you ok. I'm not sure if this problem exist in other factions languages.

    I can't wait for the modding community to pop off, with whatever fun stuff they can think of!
    My wish being fictional factions, as being restricted to accurate WW2 representation gets a little boring when one has the better equipment or position at times (I wonder how fun it would be to play as the Ravens and Eagles from Ravenfield?)
    Or I'm just nitpicking, as I'm still having an absolute blast, even with the Italy campaign (highly recommend starting with pilot, to go destroy the nearest ship that is providing artillery to your enemy. Then going with Tankers whenever they become available)

      The community has been very vocal with the game since it launched on PC in 2020 so the dev has constantly made the game better everyday. The gameplay loop is also very addictive. It has the survival/looting aspect of fallout but the game doesn't pause while you're looting dead bodies, so there's constant tension.
