Guns Guts Glory and … Ghosts? Cross Fire a new free FPS has all these things including a new game mode called “Ghost Mode”. Cross Fire boasts over 10 different maps 30+ different guns and 4 game modes. It is a game that will quickly become one of the top games in the Free Online FPS industry.
When you first start playing Cross Fire you are confronted with the choice of 3 different types of player characters. The only difference in between the 3 characters is their look. The developers should eventually add more differences.
There are 3 main problems in Cross Fire: Ping hit regulation and sound. Cross Fire being a replica of Counter-Strike 1.6 has almost everything down pat except for these 3 areas.
There is a major problem in Cross Fire with pings. The servers which are located in Canada give off higher and higher pings the farther away you are from the main server. Anyone inside North America will get a relatively good ping but currently there is nothing stopping anyone outside North America from playing. Cross Fire was made by SubaGames but SubaGames was allowed to make it from a company who made the original Vietnamese version. When people look for Cross Fire they usually find the American version. This leads to more people outside of North America playing. What happens is that someone from Brazil or Russia will come in and have over a 1000 ping. That high of a ping makes it almost impossible for hit detection to take place on that person.
The second main problem hit regulation doesn’t look like it will be fixed anytime soon. If you are looking for a replica of Counter-Strike I’d suggest either buying Counter-Strike or finding another game. Most headshots in this game are made by luck and are effected mainly by ping. If the person you are shooting has a low ping and you have enough skill to aim at the head you will likely get a headshot. If the person that you are aiming at has a ping of 500 your chances to get a headshot lessen dramatically. Hit regulation in this game can be put in the same category as ping because one compliments the other. There are no spray tactics in this game because the spray on every gun is different. The only gun that follows the spray of Counter-Strike 1.6 and Source is the M4 where the bullets go up if you shoot at the ground. Guns like the AK-47 and AK-74 will eradicate your recoil.
Sound a major part in every gamer’s playing style is very ineffective in Cross Fire. The main game modes that utilize sound are Ghost Mode and Search and Destroy. Many times you will think you hear someone coming in front of you when really they are right behind you. Sound is a major turnoff in this game and needs to be fixed immediately for this game to be more successful.
Cross Fire like the game it replicates will be big in competitive gaming. Since closed beta there have been lots of clans and teams. Only more came with the introduction of the ever-needed clan system in open beta. Although the clan system is not fully worked out clans are still popping up every day. Matches are usually a 5 v 5 and it is played for 4 games of 7 rounds each game on 2 different maps. The team with the most rounds won at the end will win the scrimmage. What happens in Cross Fire though which you will not see in Counter-Strike games is the trash talk. Whether it be on the forums or in-game trash talk and flaming in this game is outrageous. Once all the clans simmer down and play respectful competition will improve considerably. Players are still waiting on an official Cross Fire League like other competitive shooters have.
Overall Cross Fire is the best free FPS since Combat Arms. Other than the 3 major problems mentioned earlier Cross Fire is on its way to becoming the best in the business. With an active community and GM staff no player is left feeling alone. The competitive side of Cross Fire boasts a great deal of competition and fun gameplay albeit the trash talking and flaming. Cross Fire is great for a free FPS but can still not compare to retail FPS games like Counter-Strike 1.6 Source and the Battlefield series.
Game Ogre’s Rating (out of 10): 8.00
A tactical first person shooter what will make your hearts beat faster for every shot fired or bomb exploded while playing the game. This game, similar to CS:GO, is a great FPS game where you try you quick thinking, quick reactions and accurate shooting to try and kill the opposing team. This is no easy task if your against the best of the best from all over the world. The rank system is good but what is makes it stand out from its competition is its mechanics. The mechanics is much easier to use and but the mouse be a bit sloppy. Overall, it is a great game to try and spend your time into.
Another shooting best game, Crossfire is really popular and mostly played game. This game is similar to CS series and Special force 2, But their differences is just the graphics and how the settings is done. This game is also fun to played tho, because CF many modes, many types for you to played. This game also have free m4a-1 when u complete the tutorial xD, The rank system of it is balanced and good, all you need to do is only hard work if u really wanted some rifles/snipes, but the bad on this game is, there’s many cheaters that are desperate, because they want to rank fast and collect some gps also. Those maps of it is also good, I mostly played team death match mode and always black widow map ? If I’m not mistaken. This game is really good 🙂 recommended ^7
Cross Fire is a nice online first-person shooter game, especially since it is free. What I like most about the game are the various guns the player can choose from; I usually go with an assault rifle because it is might favorite kind of weapon to use. The gameplay is addicting, and the graphics is moderately okay, though not comparable to more recent online first-person shooter games. I do enjoy playing through the different game modes that the game offers. I would recommend this game for those interested in free online first-person shooters, though it is not as great as shooters like CS:GO. Overall, I would rate this game a 3.9/5.
