  • story
    24 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

Players express disappointment over the absence of a compelling storyline, engaging missions, and meaningful faction choices, feeling that the game fails to capture the essence of the classic Command & Conquer series. Many reviewers suggest that the game feels more like a generic RTS without the rich storytelling that fans expected, leading to frustration and a sense of betrayal regarding the franchise's legacy.

    • “The storyline is key; without it, nothing makes sense.”
    • “All we ever wanted was more variety in units for skirmish games and story missions with the Red Alert feel.”
    • “This isn't a Command & Conquer; it's just a game that is set in the C&C storyline but as a real-time strategy game.”

    • “The storyline can't pick between Red Alert or Tiberium; I would recommend avoiding.”
    • “This is not Command and Conquer; this is using the IP for another war game that has nothing to do with the Tiberium story.”

  • grinding
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and overly repetitive, often feeling like a chore rather than an engaging experience. Despite the inclusion of various combat modes, many reviewers criticize the game for its heavy reliance on microtransactions and a pay-to-play model that detracts from the enjoyment of grinding. Overall, the gameplay loop is described as monotonous and lacking meaningful content, leading to disappointment among fans of the genre.

    • “The freeplay is just tedious and takes forever.”
    • “Such a disappointing experience - the gameplay loop is extremely grindy and what's more depressing - depressingly samey, depressingly micro-transaction oriented and depressingly removed from the classic C&C experience - an experience which the YouTube ads falsely promote.”
    • “These games are a lazy way to get money out of players who want to speed up the grinding process.”
  • music
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating its nostalgic ties to the Command & Conquer series, particularly reminiscent of C&C3 and Tiberium Wars. However, many feel that the current soundtrack lacks the iconic tracks from Red Alert 2 or 3, which detracts from the overall experience and connection to the franchise. Suggestions for improvement include incorporating more classic C&C music to enhance the game's atmosphere.

    • “The music is reminiscent of C&C3, which is great if that's your thing.”
    • “We have the best RA3 song ever made in the commander upgrade menus, but I wish there was more C&C music elsewhere.”
    • “It makes me feel nostalgic with the characters and soundtrack of the original Tiberium Wars C&C.”
    • “Huge suggestion though to give it more of a Command & Conquer feel; add some of the Red Alert 2 or 3 tracks instead of the current boring background music when scrolling around.”
    • “It is kind of a common mobile strategy game, but it makes me feel nostalgic with the characters and soundtrack of the original Tiberium Wars.”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users express disappointment with the game's optimization, noting that it fails to run smoothly compared to other mobile titles like PUBG and FIFA Mobile. Many feel that the game should have adhered more closely to the original Command & Conquer style while being properly optimized for mobile devices, leading to frustration and uninstalls.

    • “I'm thankful that you put it on iOS and Android; if the game is optimized, it deserves a 5-star rating.”
    • “Disappointed and uninstalled It looks like a C&C game but it's not. Why didn't you just stick to the brief, charge people £20 for a revamped, true-to-original C&C game with no in-app purchases, but mobile optimized and updated graphics?”
    • “I'm thankful that you put it on iOS and Android, but the game optimization is lacking. It deserves a 5-star rating if it were better optimized.”
  • replayability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Reviewers highlight that XCOM 2 offers significant replayability, particularly on mobile, as it remains true to the original while enhancing playability. This combination of familiar mechanics and improved accessibility encourages players to revisit the game multiple times.

    • “The limited variety in gameplay mechanics leads to a repetitive experience.”
