This game takes us to Florida in the 90s with the objective of placing us at the top of organized crime. in the purest style Payday, we will rob banks, rob facilities, infiltrate enemy bases… The hail of bullets will be intense but, It’s worth it?. Find out in this analysis.
I played in a Xbox series Xfor this version two graphic modes are available, performance and quality. Mainly, I used the former.
Crime Boss: Rockay City is already attracting attention for its coverage
Surely the first thing we all noticed when hearing about this game was that when it came to seeing the preview ads (remember it first came out on PC at the end of March ), the faces of the protagonists were familiar to us. Of course it is that the very Chuck Norris appears there, and who does not remember those magical episodes of texas ranger that a whole generation accompanied us during childhood. Not only Mandrel is the protagonist, but also put faces to game characters actors of the size of Damion Poitier, Danny Glover, Danny Trejo, Kim basinger, Michael Madsen, Michael Booker, Vanilla ice cream…
With this staging, we will have the chance to enjoy three distinguished game modes, Baker’s Battle (history mode), time of the crime (online multiplayer) and Urban legends (Online cooperative missions).
The game is divided into three playable modes that ensure a good number of hours
Baker’s Battle: This is called the story mode in which this focuses Crime Boss: Rockay City. with a philosophy roguelikebecause our decisions will have some importance in the result, as well as the possibility of organizing the cartel
Mainly, we will divide our tasks into commit thefts of materials, money, minerals; assault transports, institutions, banks, etc.. The problem is that, the missions, although at the beginning one can believe that they are posed in an organic way, in the end they turn out to be developed in an artificial way since, although the scenario changes (less than one does would like) and the objective, we feel that we always do the same thing.
At half-time of the missions, from our base we will organize our team, recruiting new mercenaries with different characteristics, which we can improve throughout the story. There is also black market this will allow us to sell everything that is not a currency and that we have taken from the enemy of the missions. With that money aside from recruiting, we can buy new weapons this being a considerable number.
Beyond the main story, we can continue to be interested in this Crime Boss: Rockay City
Time of crime: It’s him ultimate multiplayer mode, it will put us almost in the same situation as the story. Here we can carry out the same actions such as the organization of the mission, the recruitment of personnel… What it allows us is collaborate with up to three friends online. This is appreciated because the missions are very similar to each other.
Urban legends: In this modality we will live microstories that will be entrusted to us by the different bosses, playing four missions for each of them. In this mode we will have the help of six mercenaries that we will have to take care of. If they fail in the last of the four missions offered by this mode, we will have to start the series again from the beginning.
Shoot, run, unlock the doors and start again
What else will we do in Crime Boss: Rockay City is to shoot, and although he shooting be perfectly acceptablewe see that our rivals, who have a better armed special class, wear vests, etc., behave inappropriately. The game has no difficulty selector.so the further we go, the easier it will be thanks to the bad AI. We may die, but it’s true that as we say in tennis jargon, it will be due to an unforced error. A player with minimal skill in an FPS will have no problem solving this game
Enemy AI is the problem, but in the wrong way. Since they act a bit wild (not to mention like headless chickens), they overdo the toppings. For no apparent reason, they pop out when you and your teammates perform suppressive fire. The result is that we will become some kind of Rambo and shamelessly shoot the police. Things can be complicated by the number of enemies that attack us, being a hail of bullets worthy of the films of Sylvester Stallone.
Leaving the shooting aside too we will unlock locks, safes, vehicle doors…We’ll carry the loot by making our body feel the weight of the load, swinging our screen a few degrees slightly to the side. We’ll run and escape true Hollywood style to get to the evacuation point. In a few moments we can something secreteliminating one by one our enemies by exploiting their great handicap, their small intelligence.
Technically, Crime Boss: Rockay City is far from what you might expect
Have the cast that matters Crime Boss, Rockay Cityit is difficult to see that certain not completely badly designed actors have inappropriate facial expressions. well yes that all our protagonists are recognizable, the lack of polishing is noted in some of them. Those that are not so main have too basic a design.
In general, the game offers detailed scenarios and quite successful lighting effects, but They are not able to surprise us at any time
The sound and the voices of the actors at the level of a Hollywood film?
Well, unfortunately and despite have the voices of these renowned actorsthe game never makes us feel like we’re in a movie Hollywood. Come on, that shouldn’t make us feel that way either, but there comes a time when what we are told is so unimportant that even the voices lose. Moreover, not all the actors seem to have had the same motivation.
The other sound effects are correct, the game is Localized in English voices with Spanish subtitles.
Is Crime Boss: Rockay City worth it?
Depends on what we are looking for. If you like style games Payday and you are waiting for the release of his third opus in August, maybe Crime Boss: Rockay City be your game If you’re looking for a complex story of cops and robbers, don’t count on it since, It’s an artificial story that serves as a pretext to shoot a few shots and that’s it.. While that’s not to say it’s not a game to enjoy, the tone is carefree and its shooting it’s quite passable with some spectacular moments. Despite technically he could give more of himself, its great attractiveness shines in the actors who put the face and voice (medium better or worse) to our protagonists. Additionally, we have the ability to play with three other friendswhich breaks the repetitive rhythm of play and sometimes makes us forget, its infamous AI.
