Metro Redux is a reissue of the previously released"Metro 2033" and "Metro: The Last Ray", within which both qualitative remastering was performed. The release took place on August 28, 2014 for PCs and consoles of a new generation. In the Steam service there is an opportunity to purchase a bandle for $ 25 or each game separately for $ 15. Passage "Metro Redux" remained the same, but the update brought a lot of gameplay innovations, which we will talk about later.
This part of the game series received noticeablymore changes than its sequel. "Metro Redux" was created at the last iteration of a powerful game engine 4A. In the previous version of the game had to sacrifice the accuracy and quality of graphics, but with the advent of PS4 and Xbox One, the console can transmit a more detailed image, which is only available on a powerful gaming computer. In general, "Redux" shows a stunning picture, 3 times more detailed and 2 times faster (on consoles with a speed of 60 FPS).
However, this is not just an improved onegraphic component. What are the other advantages of the re-release? Passage "Metro Redux" became more comfortable and exciting due to improved artificial intelligence, work with weapons and stealth mode. The character will be able to wipe the mask, use the gun customization system, and perform steep murders and stuns in melee. If you have already played in Metro 2033, you will be pleasantly surprised by the presence of a large number of new hidden places, as well as new enemies. If earlier the chapters ended with a loading screen, now most of the levels are interconnected.
The ruins of Moscow now look even moreimpressively than before. For this, thanks to the redesigned lighting system. Thanks to this feature, the appearance of the game definitely wins. Additional study of the geometry of the surface in the levels allows you to convey the features of weather conditions. Because of these innovations, the passage of "Metro Redux" becomes even more atmospheric. Now this deserted city with might and main conveys features of nuclear winter. Thanks to a detailed elaboration of character animation, they literally come to life on your screens. The AI of enemies has been updated, as well as their reaction to receiving damage.
Metro 2033 is known for its complexity, andspecially for real connoisseurs of hardcore has been added 2 unique style of play. "Spartan" became the closest to the epic experience of the regime "Ranger hardcore" from Last Light. It is very complex, but the impressions are worth it. But the mode "Survival" is intended for hardcore players "with steel balls": all cartridges are on account, enemies are very aggressive, weapons are slowly recharged. This is the regime that will be remembered for a long time.
Finally, we want to note that, in addition to all previousavailable localizations, in the "Metro 2033: Redux" was added the Ukrainian track, where the subtitles and dialogues of characters are fully translated. Well, for many gamers from Ukraine it will be an excellent surprise.
In the sequel, there are far fewer innovations.The mechanics of the game remained the same, however, as in Metro 2033, graphics, AI enemies and animation of all the characters were refined. The "Metro: Last Light Redux" includes all additions from Last Light, which adds 10 hours of gameplay in total: 7 new single missions plus a tower and hot fights in the arena. Additional weapons are now available in the campaign. The rest of the elements remained unchanged.
Metro Redux double pack combines 2campaign of a single player to create one of the most atmospheric game series. Thanks to improved visual characteristics, you can even better get used to the game and survive the history of wandering Artem. The world has never been so deep and realistic. It's time to plunge into the darkness, taking up the passage of the Metro Redux, and enter the unfriendly subway again! Believe me, you have an amazing adventure.
Next, we'll tell you about the bestgames 2014 on the PC. In the end of the year a huge number of amazing projects came out, which is not surprising, because it's time for new consoles. Which games were the best for the PC? This is discussed in the sections below.
The list of games on the PC that fall into the series of the best in this category is presented by Far Cry 4, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, Wolfenstein: The New Order, Titanfall.
Perhaps the winner is to recognize Far Cry 4.Although the other shooters are equally beautiful. The game Titanfall has attracted millions of players around the world exciting multiplayer and a new concept in the world of multi-user projects, receiving many positive reviews from rating editions. The game Call of Duty finally changed the engine and was able to bring a lot of fresh ideas. The restart of Wolfenstein also became quite successful. However, the endless peaks of the snow-capped mountains of Kirat, charismatic heroes, fascinating and diverse gameplay, as well as cheerful co-op in Far Cry 4 are tightened in earnest. The game offers all the best achievements of its predecessor, while improving many elements and throwing out "irritants" of the project. Truly - this is the best shooter of 2014.
The list of games on the PC, the best in this category, is presented by Assassin's Creed: Unity, Watch_Dogs, Thief. 2 games from Ubisoft, incidentally, were met with a rather ambiguous audience.
A separate line I would like to mention about the gameThief. The adventures of the thief Garrett turned out to be quite amusing and interesting. The player immediately surprises the gloomy world and thoughtful mechanics, but a very boring plot and not completely enriched the world, which was present in the past parts, slightly upsets.
Watch_Dogs also turned out to be quite a good gamewith fresh ideas of a connected world, nice graphics and a commendable story. Nevertheless, the game is full of many unnecessary moments, which certainly did not do her good.
But the world of the game Assassin "s Creed:Unity has become really amazing: thousands of crowds of people scurry past you on their own business, realistically recreated sights pleasing the eye, history carries away its temporary era, and the increased complexity only adds interest.
In this category, the best game is Dragon Age:Inquisition. The third part turned out great: a large open world, interesting quests, a well thought out combat system and the pumping of a character, an entertaining story. In general, Bioware really tried, to give the best role-playing game of the year.
In the outgoing year, most of the re-releases concerned only console projects, but Metro Redux was released on the PC.
The best race for the computer was another projectfrom Ubisoft - The Crew. Perfectly recreated US expanses, thoughtful car tuning, advanced social component, beautiful graphics and an entertaining plot make The Crew the best racing project of 2014.
Finally, the best strategies can rightfully be consideredSid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth, dedicated to the distant cosmos and the conquest of other planets. A good storyline, a large branching of gameplay capabilities and an extensive game map will take many sleepless nights with you in order to build a new civilization.
