Ok game with solid gameplay, sound, and graphics, but with numerous flaws.

When i first saw this game, i was very xcited. It was completely different fomr any other game on the market and it looked pretty good. When i got it though, it dissapointed me a little. The graphics are pretty good, but it seems like the entire population of the United States in 1865 was an old, white haired man, a guy with brown hair and a mustache, and a guy with blonde/orange hair like a girl. The gameplay was ok, but there are some flaws, First, some guns have only 1 shot and reloading is worse than a sniper on ww2 fps game. Second, enemies hae excellent shots if they decide to shoot at you, especially behind stone walls when you are are completely behind cover. On easy, enemies will wiat 5 seconds to shoot you, but you are always reloading, all the time, so it makes no difference. Now dont get me wrong, i think this game is a solid fps, but it can get annoying with all of its little quirks. the sound is ok, a chorus of little boys singing opera like music, not like shatter windows high but little kid high. Overall, dont get htis game unless you love fps, history, and new frontiers of gaming.
