What are your thoughts on this game and the sequel?
>>
Amazing game. I find it hard to go back to the originals now, just too old. But Commandos 2 will always be my favorite, still very playable today. C3 was cool but way to damn hard I found.
>>
>>3345820
Commandos 2 is a 10/10 masterpiece. Very good games all of them.
>>
>>3345820
I bought the trilogy years ago but never got around to playing them, should probably fix that
>>
Commandos is a fantastic game but it's not for everyone. If you like it, also check out Desperados and Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood.
>>
>>3345820
I like how it is actually hard compared to 2 and later games. 2 was so goddamn easy with cigarettes/wine.
>>
>>3345820
Great fucking games. Totally forgot about them though until this thread. wew
>>
>>3348334
Yeah this, played the first one a couple of years after the 2nd and I got stuck on the 4th level
>>
new commandos is in the making yo
>>

Commandos reminded me a lot of Army Men 2, which in my opinion is one of the best top-down shooters of all time.
>>
A friend lent me 1 and 2 which one should I play first?
>>
>>3349346
Play with ur dik xD
>>
>>3348915
It's gonna be a mobile game, so probably shit.
>>
>>3345820
like these games pretty much, though i cant buy it on gog in my country anymore.

Are there any similiar games?

Whats your opinion on Company of Heroes?
Is it any similar?

Thought about getting it.
>>
I remember it being hard as fucking granite.
>>
coming rooiiight ova
>>
>>3345820
I played it many years ago until I got stuck on level 12 (this game is hard as hell) and l never finished. I have all three now and would like to try and beat them at some point. I don't play a lot of war games but this series is unique.
>>
>>3352875
It was pretty tough.

Fun times
>Tunisia (I think), stuck
>Set useless char in the open (sniper iirc)
>Roaming guard spots him, aims at him
>his buddy arrives, also aims at him
>( the exact same shit happens several times)
>Green Beret makes a backstab train that would make a good TF2 spy feel inadequate
Another...
>That one level that was like a Guns of Navarone parody iirc
>Sneak the driver past a lot of guards like motherfucking Snake
>Steal SdKfz
>Leisurely ventilate every german in the island
Also there was another instance where I stole a tank, then got the disguised spy into it and the Germans just ignored me while I slaughtered, them, haha.

dirty fucker you just made me buy the trilogy out of pure nostalgia

forgot the difficulty level of these fucking games was like breaking out of jail with a toothbrush

thanks you
>>
Just downloaded these games. What am I in for?
>>
Is this one of those games where the first one is very good, and the rest are garbage?
>>
>>3358673
True, hardcore stealth games.
Lots and lots of waiting for the right moment to move.
>>
>>3358676
First one was good but really hard.
Second one was still good but easier, with lots of non-stealth tricks to win.
Third one was actually still pretty good but too short.
We don't talk about the fourth one.

Very similar are:

>Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood
>Desperados 1

Super pretty games, but you usually have to force yourself to play stealth, because it's very tempting and easy to turn these into corner shooting games.
>>
My commandos don't have voices when I give them commands, and the movies don't work. Is there a fix? (first game)
>>
>>3358770
>Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood
Oh shit, I remember playing the demo of that when I was a kid, not having any clue what to do and just fucking around, and also, dying. Fun times.
>>
>>3359015
Play it on a VM? Last time I played it was on an actual PIII Win 98 shitbox so not sure the compatibility mode works properly.
>>
>>3359362
does the GOG version run Dosbox? Is that a VM?
>>
>>3360134
I think it was a native windows app, rather than DOS based.No ide if the GOG version has a patch or upgrade for newer machines.

A Virtual Machine is kind of an emulator. Download something like VirtualBox, to create a VM and install an OS to it, never tried one for /vr/ stuff myself since I have an old PC laying around, though.
>>
I remember a friend saying this was good when I was a kid, then I got a demo for the first games expansion pack, the level where you have to sneak into a base and capture some nazi officer.

Huge level, hard as hell, no tutorials, no easy levels to ease me in, no internet to actually look up what the fuck I was supposed to do. Just clicking around trying to figure it out as I went. At first I tried to run at the enemy all guns blazing. Great times.

Took me a week to finish, went out and bought the game the next day.
>>
>>3361892
ever finished the main game?
