    Wait, you're still reading the description? Do you expect some kind of funny quip about Homefront? Well you ain't gonna get one. This game sucks and doesn't deserve one.

      imagine you get sucked into a bad online fps and spend your time fighting bored players until eventually the game dies and youre the only one left roaming the server, unable to get some rest as the map resets ever so often.
      Eventually your undieing soul goes numb and you just accept your fate, mindlessly emptying your mag as the only form of resistance you still have against your hellish experience of life, when eventually, after years, someone else joins the server, another living being, but you've been too far gone to even still know how to croutch to say hello
      Your senses, fuzed with the map, feel him coming closer, aiming at you, and for a moment you hope its all over, finally.
      Your head explodes, the player leaves... respawn.

      All they had to do was take BF4 give us new guns/ maps and game modes. MAYBE a story even if small and it woulda slaughtered 2042 in sales. (at least id think so) but nope...and i bet u the reason its lacking so much content is so they can sell it back later.. like new maps or guns along with cosmetics... idk if thats 100% but i wouldn't put it passed EA to find some way to sell it back. cause i think they said there's no battle pass thing but that don't mean they cant just do DLC, ya kno?

      When energy drinks first came into creation, Red Bull, Monster and Rockstar all had an original flavor. Each one was a little bit different but they were all "energy drink" type flavors. As time went on, and energy drinks became more popular, people started making energy drinks similar to the top 3 companies and thats where "original energy drink" or "Standard energy drink" terms come from. They refer back to original energy drinks. If they do a crappy job at it, some call them generic energy drinks. Now, many years later, there are 1000's of different flavors and some companies don't even do an original flavor, like Bang and NOS. That being said, Full Throttles original flavor is a bit citrus-y, but not as citrus-y as NOS.

    They were too cowardly to have China as the villain, and so they settled for a freaking ridiculous enemy scenario with a serious tone that does not fit at all.
    Edit: You have to have worlds with some semblance of logic, for even craziest settings to exist. W40K is a good example of this, the universe is nuts, but there is believable explanations. How does NK expand? Why would ANYBODY in the occupied countries fight for them, and is China so weak they would roll over and accept being taken over? What about NATO? This could have been avoided if the game was more making fun of tropes and having fun, but the game treats it's lore deadly seriously. So we have a game that is a mediocre shooter, and with tone and lore that are at odds.

      This is not a bad game. If you're SOLELY looking at graphics and not gameplay or plot or multiplayer or weapons or bonuses, then it's a 5/10. The graphics and campaign's length are the weakest parts of this game. The actual gameplay is fun and it introduced things like the parrot drone which COD shamelessly copied.
      I think the only way you can say this game is bad is if you are bad at the game.

      Homefront: The Revolution is a hidden gem now. Yes, the launch was awful. Is the game perfect? Far from it. But it's one of the few games I know that generates the feeling of a single-player Red Dawn game. I actually really enjoyed the gameplay. Sabotaging KPA equipment, opening up ambushes with RCXDs on checkpoints and convoys, hijacking drones to fight for you; it's all just a good time. One of my guilty pleasure games for sure.

Instead of an off-brand Call of Duty campaign with a Red Dawn coat of paint, The Revolution actually encourages you to use hit-and-run tactics, evade patrols, hide away, set-up ambushes etc. Because the maps are open, and you're usually given the freedom to tackle objectives on your own without an NPC telling you when to wait and when to shoot, it feels like you have agency and autonomy unlike the first game. It's kind of a unique game in that respect, I can't think of any game I've played that really nailed the vibe of being a freedom fighter like it does. As flawed as it is.

Is just stupid, be it China, Russia, NK or a South American Federation, the worst they would do would be blockades, maybe arms deals with paramilitary and insurgents inside the US, but invasion and occupation? Would be stupid, mostly because even in the best case scenario, neither of those countries would act like the US itself, mostly because they wouldn't direct most of their budget to their military to sustain a occupation force, even the US itself is becoming incapable of it, the struggles would be internal, or with PMCs, maybe some border and naval skirmishes, but never a full on invasion, too costly for pretty much no gain, they could've do it like FC2 in the US, would make way more sense...
