To be honest, DIEHARD FUTURE COP LAPD SUPERFAN, its cost me friendships, and i'm okay with that. For years I've sought for any form of a remake, remaster, a sequel, or even a loosely inspired successor to no avail until I found this game (Immediately sent screenshots of the store page to some day 1 homies that understand what that game meant to me). Before my review thank you so much for bringing this game back to life, it sincerely made my day, my week, my month, and I plan on following up for future updates(hopefully they come..). My honest take? This game has potential and I think the new unit additions were like watching my own ideas being brought to life, although I do miss the futuristic/retro aesthetic of the original, I can appreciate the modern take. I can't shake the feeling I was playing an early access game, for me the game was pretty buggy and at frequent times unresponsive to input leading to weapons not firing and subsequently death. I don't think theres any reason f...

game feels unbalanced
been like a year and a half with no updates or anything, it's just abandoned TLDR; It's good for some nostalgia, but the game just doesn't feel good to play. Buy it if you like supporting Future cop spinoffs, but don't expect anything groundbreaking *The new turrets and tank types are fun and a good idea, even if there is nothing visually different about them to make them easy to identify *The effect on Sky Captain's voice is really nice, and feels close enough to the original that I won't complain *I only played on 2 maps, but they were basically copy/paste of eachother, so it felt pretty boring. I understand the 3 lane thing is popular for mobas since it's balanced and easy to understand, but man is it boring *No auto-locking like in the original Future Cop means you have less feedback on if your attacks are working, especially since the attack distances are so short. I do know a red triangle appears above the unit when it is within range, but that also doesn't seem to always ...
