As a FPS related with Vietnam War,Vietcong has reconstructed the dread of jungle warfare in Vietnam War.
When I play Vietcong in first time,I thought this might be a simple FPS as Counter-Strike.But when I start the first mission,and be shot by a VC sniper,who hid at the jugle about 10m away,I changed my opinion--it is not a simple FPS!The enemies will not stand in fornt of you and be shot like a fool,they are hunters,hide in the jungle and prepare to kill you. The VC in this game become very smart,especially in "vietnam" level.They snaked to
you back and kill you with their AKs,keep in low to avoid you shot,and even laugh at your death.The smart enemy AI result in a exciting gunfight and become carefully of engage with enemy.
The enemy is so sly that we need some strong support,and it provide five teammates come along and fight to VC with you.Pointman,medic,radioman,engineer and HMG(Heavy Machine-Gun) gunner will provide various kinds of support you need.Without them,you just can die in this hostile jungle with despair.The AI of your teammates are as smart as their enmey,they can defense,cover you,attack,and even retreat,just like a real soldier doing in the war.
The graphics in the game is great,the detail and texture of weapons is very good,look like a real weapon.The texture of characters are real,also.
The sound in the game is outstanding,every firearm has its unique firing sound,you can even recognize the weapon VC carried by its sound.
The less scores I give in "Value" as a result of its short missions,while the missions in Vietcong is exciting and interesting,its length is too short to give satisfaction to the player,and I think it is quite a bad point of Vietcong.
However,Vietcong is still worth to play,for its real atmosphere of jungle warfare and interested missions.
