    1. While Homefront’s singleplayer campaign was very short, I got over 500 hours of enjoyment with the multiplayer.

        1. Guess that really depends if you were a Frontlines: Fuel of War fan or not, Since it was made by the same developers. The gameplay was almost identical in everyway, So essentially Homefront was pretty much a Frontlines: Fuel of War 2.

  1. Oooooh yes! … I liked the first gameplay trailer and if they continued developing it that way, this’ll be good 😉

  2. I am so confused.. The New Direction they were taking when it was being developed at Crytek was an RPG Adventure, Open World Game.. Now it is back to being a FPS? Or was it always an FPS Open World Adventure ? I am so confused it isn’t even funny.. Maybe the Author overlooked something? If it went back to FPS like the first Homefront and is linear again.. count me out. (That is NOT THE SAME DIRECTION!)

  3. Wake me when there’s gameplay. And good gameplay this time, not linear cutscene watching gameplay. The remote toy car section was cool, more like that.
