The story mode features a single campaign with varied mission quality and inconsistent difficulty, fluctuating between very hard and very easy. Technical issues such as non-loading cutscenes and delayed mission completion screens disrupt the experience, while replay value is minimal beyond the main campaign. Overall, players should manage expectations and save frequently to navigate the game's quirks.
“The difficulty is all over the place in this game, some missions are ridiculously hard, the others are piece of cake; it is so random that even some of the first missions are some of the hardest.”
