I bought this game the other day just looking for a different type of WW2 first person squad game. The price is very reasonable at (dollar amount) and before you think this is a bare bones game it is not. The graphics are average to good and the action is fine the biggest problem is that I have not gotten past the 2nd mission not because of being to hard, even though it is. The reason is the game keeps hanging up and freezing. I have tried many fixes and they don't seem to fix it. My system while not the hottest is still workable with P3 833mhz,256 memory, GE Force 2 32mb card/ This would be a truly fun game if it would just keep freezing!!!!!!!!!!!

Good game; just a few small hang-ups

Deadly Dozen is a good game, especially for the price. However, there are a few things that could have been done to make it better. For instance, there are only two positions for the player to be in, standing and crouching. A prone (laying down) position would make this game a whole lot better. Also, I have found a snag with the graphics. A few of the weapons and all of the helmets worn by the soldiers appear in solid white. It might be my system, but it is fairly new, so I do not think it is the problem. Besides that, I really enjoy this game, and for the price, you can't go wrong.

good

I think that we saw much of it in "Hidden and Dangerous".
O.K. it is not souch bad but unfortunately the game is full of bugs(altough I have version 1.01).The game needs to be patched
again.What realy stupid is "fade away" effect of bodies.Also the animated blood is missing.Aftherall it is a wargame,isn't it?

Best bang for the buck!

While priced low, don't be fooled into thinking this is a budget title. It's not. This is a first-rate game at a bargain price. It is a WW II mission-based game in which you control a squad of men into Germany. You can switch at ANY time from first to third person. You can also switch bodies with any of your men at any time, which is really cool. You can command your men to hold position, attack, or follow in a variety of formations. You can commandeer vehicles. The sniper rifle has always been my favorite gun in any game that offers them, and I was delighted to see one here, and it works fine. You must sneak and strategize to survive. When starting the game you pick your squad from 12 available men with different skills. Then you outfit them however you like. This is a nice feature and is more involving than other shooters, but it is very easy to do. There are rain effects, and the grass even blows in the wind. The graphics are great, and I was amazed to find that the game ran smoothly (640 x 480) on my ageing PII 450 with an NVidia TNT 1 video card. I'm running 256 MB ram and 16 MB video ram. I'm running it with high detail. I imagine if your video card is 32 MB, you could crank the resolution higher and still get good framerates. This game even comes with a small manual, which contains most everything you'll need to know to play the game. Others have mentioned a few graphical glitches, but I have seen none of those on my system, and I suspect video card driver problems with those who have had those problems. Bottom line: This would be a great game even if it was full-priced. This is the best money I've spent all year, and I can only hope this low pricing is the start of a trend.

If your into Saving Private Ryan you'll like this game

This is a good game for you ww2 fans out there. I like the fact that you can switch between first and third person modes. The graphics are pretty good and the weapons are great. overall this is a great game for the price.

If you like a game with wierd graphics, and non readable text. I have a machine that can run new games like civilaztion 3 , not this. If you decide to buy this game it's your bussiness, but it's No fun unless you don't like to play it. I encourage people not to get this.

I don't understand some of these negative reviews- this has to be one of the best games anyone has done with the (...) price.

The game is similar to Hidden & Dangerous and Rogue Spear- but in 3D and with less planning. The graphics are excellent and the sound and music are top notch- gameplay just flat out rocks!!!

Don't be swayed by these negative reviews- DEADLY DOZEN is worth every penny and is more fun than Wolfenstien (...). The "big boys" (i.e. Activision and EA) charge more and deliver less game- kudos to NFusion and Infogrames for showing everyone that great games don't NEED to cost $$$ (...)!

It will be the best money you have ever spent on a PC game- ever!

Immersive Experience

This game is very addictive. It feels as though you are there. Graphics, sounds & music are great. All for [not much money]. Be sure to download v1.03 patch to correct the bugs.
