Learned the game, cool, cool. What really dragged me in, however, was playing it for 20 minutes the next morning. If you don't have much time, need to study etc, then this has to be the game for you, man. Been thinking about how to improve my play the whole day. Now, in between study sessions, I just throw around some challenges, play for 30 minutes, and I have my fix. handegg\/10 - Murca strong. I want to recommend this game, but I can't. I want to LIKE this game, but I can't.A deep, rich strategic experience in a novel format (i.e. future sportsball)? Practically auto-sold on this game. After playing through the tutorial, I get the basics of how to plan turns and such, so I move on to the Basic League.Here's the thing, though: this game does a terrible job of explaining itself. I know how to move my bots, but not why I should. It takes me a couple games before I realize that the goal of the game is less "get the ball in the end zone," and more "figure out what your opponent isn't going to expect or counter, and do that," but I STILL don't know how to reliably gauge what are good options or plays. Half the time it feels like whatever I simulated during the Planning Phase doesn't work out -- bots don't block like I expect them to, or (more importantly) chase the ball carrier like I expect them to. The bots have half a dozen stats that aren't even mentioned in the game tutorial\/help (nor shown in the tabular Free Agent view). I still don't know what the hell "Halt" does.Undeterred, I move on to the regular League, hoping that will give me more options for managing my team between games. But then I discover that I have the worst bots in the GCL, and my salary cap goes up by a paltry few hundred dollars per win while the free agents' "expected" salary shoots up by over a thousand dollars per game week. So, I'm basically stuck with my starting lineup of losers and mostly-losers, facing off against teams with all green (positive) stats -- my bot tackled an enemy bot who literally shrugged it off and walked past because his RESIL was maxed. I'm playing a game that appears to be about outmaneuvering\/out-thinking an enemy when I am unable to estimate the outcome of a play and don't even really know which plays are good ones, AND my guys are the worst bots in the League? The only way out appears to be to grind losses until I get better at understanding how to make the best plays possible with my awful lineup, and after 15 losses I don't think I want to play anymore.I think part of this could be made better if there was a better strategy guide to the game, but I didn't see anything like it online. There was a section of Mode7's forums devoted to Frozen Cortex, but there was nothing useful there. It's a shame, the game seems like it has a great depth of strategy to it, but it's too obfuscated and inaccessible to new players.. Hard to learn, hard to master.Sometimes you spent 5-10 minutes to plan 30 seconds.But if you into planning strategies, you will love it.. I just picked this game up yesterday, and Ill say its pretty cool. I am a sports guy, and I love strat games, so this was a no brainer for me. The game is fun and with more time, Im sure I will become fairly good at it. However, that is IF I get to play more. The game crashes on me at various points in the match. I have only played one full game out of a dozen or so trys.Once they figure out this crash bug, Im sure Ill log plenty of hours on this would be gem.I recommend with the caviat that the bug is fixed (obviously). I may have found the game I was looking for. A turn-based tactical game, with an element of sports (gridiron). I love how you always have to be on guard, and you can never be too careful when making a play. It's incredibly frustrating yet equally as fun.Put it this way: I keep losing, and yet I keep coming back. Mode 7 are obviously doing something right if that's the case.. tl;dr \u2014 Simultaneous-resolve turn-based sports game. If you like(d) either Blood Bowl or Frozen Synapse, check it out. If you're looking for a game that you can play with friends over long-distances that doesn't take a lot of time or emotional commitment, check it out. Mode 7 does great work, and nervous_testpilot's soundtracks are always top notch.If you hated FTL or Binding of Isaac (or any of the games I mentioned above), you may want to pass. And if you're on the fence, check out Northernlion's preview of it. He gives a good idea as to what the game is like.And now into the nitty gritty.All in all, I would recommend Frozen Cortex. It's highly addicting, really fun, and the games are short enough that you can play one on a break or with minimum time commitment. Bonus, it runs on my toaster of a laptop. The controls are snappy and responsive with no noticeable input delay, and the interface is simplistic and clean. The background designs are gorgeous, in that whole cyberpunk future kind of way, and it's fun to see my old friends from Frozen Synapse making a return as coach icons.That isn't to say I don't have my gripes with it, however. Overall, the game is not new player-friendly. That isn't to say it's not fun, however. It has a learning curve that is relatively short, but steep, and hopefully players will go looking for assistance when they confront their frustrations rather than making smear posts on the forums.Frozen Cortex can be absolutely rage-inducing at times. If you've ever watched (or played) sports, you should already be aware of the feeling of watching a good plan come crashing down. It'll happen. More than once. Get used to it.Once a match starts, there is no RNG. Let me repeat that: there is zero RNG. People will complain that the enemy blocks you more than you block them, but it's a matter of using the tools you have available. If you know what you're looking for, you will never be blocked the entire match. Plain and simple.However, there are RNG elements to the game. The pitch design is randomly-generated from a seed. Feasibly speaking, half of the map may be cut off from passing routes; corners may be entirely sectioned off and unavailable. End zones may have only two available avenues of ingress\u2014and both of them may be blocked by the other team's defenders, with no way to pass them other than by risking them intercepting a pass.The robots you have to choose from to upgrade your roster also appear to have randomly-generated stats; again, probably from a seed. In some modes, it appears that the opposing team's stats may also be randomly-generated, going from either junior varsity or the monsters from Space Jam.My main gripe about the game is that the "standard" difficulty should not at all be considered "standard." It's really "hard" mode. You're given a team of tired, limping robots and expected to pull wins out with them\u2014with better robots available based on your performance. So if you can't pull out a lucky win, by the time you get to Week 4-5 of a Knockout season, you're in hot water, especially if (again) you get a pitch that the more maneuverable opposing team can better take advantage of.In a similar vein, why the developers consider Knockout mode to be the "primary game mode" puzzles me. The other teams in that mode are not single-elimination (they come up with some nonsense about how money's tight, so if you lose *at all* the season's over, GG no re).Meanwhile, one click over, there's a much more "normal" season of 14 weeks, then a two-week single-elimination playoffs. I highly recommend this mode over Knockout, especially for starting players. The teams are on a more even playing ground, you can manage your money and hire better robots in greater numbers if you know how to bet, and the game doesn't automatically send you back to square 1 if you make one mistake.I find the match length rather short, furthering the "roguelike" moniker that if you make one single mistake (which may come down to a coin flip, even in the best of situations, if RNG just happens to stack that way), you will likely find yourself in an unrecoverable disadvantage. Furthermore, since we're human and the AI is not, one error often leads to another made in haste and frustration, while if the AI makes a mistake, it coolly carries on. This is why I said if you hated FTL or Binding of Isaac (or similar games), this one may not be for you. There *will* be times that you're put up against overwhelming opposition with no way to counter and a pitch that hampers your every move while the other team goes trolloping around. And you will lose. And if you're on Knockout mode, that's the end of your season.But then there are the times you get it right. The times you land your blocker right in the runner's path and he kicks a robot in the gut, catches a pass, and lobs it back across the pitch to your runner on the far side, who squeaks out an easy and uncontested 11 points in a single run. There will be the times you'll punt it away only to run up and sucker punch the guy who claims it in the jaw. Those moments are priceless.Last but not least, I feel like the tutorial is incomplete. This may be intended. There are parts of the interface that go unmentioned that can take a lot of the mystery out of the game, for better or worse. For example, the movement node is filled with color if the intended move can be completed without risk of any other players coming to block them. Nowhere is this mentioned in any of the tutorials I have seen as of the time of writing this review. It means that new players are going to get frustrated because they don't know all of the tools available to them, and that's not even factoring in the simulation mode that Frozen Synapse players are already familiar with.But all that complaining aside, I still recommend the game. It takes a bit of figuring out what modes you enjoy most, but once you've got some practice down, you'll be throwing long passes with the best of them. Moments of rage pillowed by hours of fun.Bonus: You get two copies when you buy it, so do yourself a favor a bring a friend along for the ride.. This game had a huge start. There was over 100 people online at the same time. Now when the time has passed, there's barely 10 players online at the same time. I hope this game would get more active players.Well, it's still a great game to play offline and especially if you have a friend to play with in multiplayer.
