Software Reviews and Criticism

  TOO MANY BUGS

  Multiple times the character froze while still being shot by the gangsters. Had to quit the app and start over again. If the cursor goes down where the task bar is and you are firing the weapon you wind up opening Notes or iTunes or whatever. Then you have to swipe to the other screen and the fight was going on in the background and since you were firing you were standing and therefore your health was badly depleted. You can’t go anywhere but locations the game insists you use. You also can’t take a different route to get to those positions. You can’t run and shoot. You can’t kneel and shoot like the opponents do. I found this really irratating since you have to stand up and fire at bad guys shooting at you from a great height with laser weapons. I found it an irritating exercise in futility. I got through all but 1 of the contracts with just the basic weapons. I found it crazy that a flash grenade that supposedly blinded the opponents for a short time didn’t make any difference if you waited for the flash and move to another location they immediately knew where you moved to. Was amazed that the graphic noted head shot and yet the guy I hit from about 5 ft was still alive. Just didn’t feel this game was worth the price I paid, which was free.

  It passes the time.

  The recommended weapons and medkits set you up for a “pay to win” scenario. But I’m stubborn and refuse to buy into that crap. However, it ties into my biggest complaint. In my efforts to survive while outnumbered and outgunned, attempting to “move forward before the timer expires” as my health dwindles away, moving my cursor and clicking to fire opens up my launch bar in the background and opens up apps. Then I just end up taking a beating as I hurry to close the apps and get the game to open up again. The game needs a fullscreen mode where this kind of stuff won’t happen. I guess they’re probably gonna hope that I’ll just get frustrated enough to start paying them for the ability to equp myself properly but, as I said, I’m too stubborn for that crap so the result they will likely achieve is me simply uninstalling and taking a couple stars off my review. I don’t wanna do that. It’s not a bad game. I just think the devs were seeing dollar signs and it resulted in some practical details being overlooked. If they aren’t gonna let me have better gear, the least they can do is fix the issue regarding the mouse clicking on and opening apps in the background while the game is open.

  Good gameplay and is intreging, but needs SEVERE improvement

  This game is fun, but it has many, many bugs. First, you can still access the dock and the toolbar on Windows, which exits out of the game and opens other apps; it doesnt even pause the game when doing that. Second, in certain ghost missions, you REQUIRE knives. There is an enemy beyond reach of melee and you cant move on without taking him out. I had to reinstall the game and restart because of that. Third, the first weapon you buy is full of crap especcially if a smg is MORE POWERFUL than a SNIPER RIFLE! Is that even logical. The first weapon you buy is the Bronson, and i saved up in a matter of 10 mins to get the raptor smh, which is more powerful than the rifle itself!!! These are many reasons why Glu should get its sh#t together and create a good Contract Killer 3. The game is also full of other weird features such as unlocking certain things at different levels, in real life, if you were to go to a gun store to get a silencer or a scope, would the cashier say: “sorry sir, you need to be level 7 to get a universal silencer.”. Is that even logical?! Anyone who works at Glu, if you are reading this, please fix the bugs i stated above and seriosly think about inproving the game.

  Even worse than the moblie version

  Pay wall, but it is possible to win… until you realize that even the biggest “free” gun is underpowered. Some commands are overlapped (like placing bombs), dock isn’t disabled (as in, you can move to your dock and click out of the game), exiting the game doesn’t even pause it, necks do some sort of freakish rubber band sometimes, the story is bad, the story isn’t even finished, it doesn’t have half of the content the mobile version does, stealth is half baked, AI is dumb, automatically coming back out of cover after a reload is dumber, it looks pretty bad, and it is pretty bad. It was two stars at most on moblie… the mobile version actually finished the story, at least. If you really want a cover based shooter with a massive pay wall from Glu, get contract killer sniper on a mobile device. Not that CKS is a much better game, but it certainly trumps this pile of crap! I actually enjoyed CK1 quite a bit. It’s sad to see this abomination come after it. Many people would call this half-baked. This wasn’t even put in the oven. This is Glu at it’s typical- freemium all the way with the least amount of effort put into what could have been a somewhat decent game.
