Can't even play past the tutorial, unplayable chinese gacha garbage which doesn't deserve to be called Metal Slug
This is a pretty solid Metal Slug experience. Slight mmo approach. Fun events. A lot of different game modes along with a Metal Slug campaign. PvP has been a lot of fun for me. I only stopped playing because it started to crash a lot after a recent update. Seems like a new update solved nothing. But, thats not why its a thumbs down for me. Its thumbs down because its Tencent and with that comes a crazy gacha system that would drain Bill Gates. I got lucky with some pulls and getting high up in an event. But, if you want to keep up, its just that. Luck or unlimited funds for pulls. How they managed to turn Metal Slug into this is wild. They buy out or rights to IPs to milk it in anyway. This one by milking the nostalgia of Slug. And, if they can't buy, they will try to just straight copy an IP and act delusional when accused lol (Zero Dawn). Screw you Pony Ma. Give Canada back Warframe.

Nostalgic visuals, but the game relies too much on upgrades and modernization. It does not capture the simple fun of the original Metal Slug games.
Pros: -Free to play -Nostalgic characters -Pretty well done 3D effects -Good mechanics and movement without input lag -Fairly interesting and long single player storyline Cons: -Modern "pay to win" scheme -Forced daily events and events and tasks in general -Menu too crowded with dynamic buttons and unnecessary things -At times feels "retro" but most of the times feels like they've done too much 3/5
what a slop, literally all they want is your informations...
Al registrarte aceptas que tus datos se registren en China, mal optimizada la experiencia con control de pc, jugué el primer nivel y al recibir un premio se bugeó y se cerró, al reintentar el ingreso no pude, no sirve sin internet, tienes que estar conectado para jugar, buenos gráficos.
Момент, когда Tencent посмотрела на аркадную серию, где вся философия помещалась в три слова — беги, стреляй, взрывай — и решила, что ей совершенно необходимы RPG-прокачка, сезоны, кооператив, рогалик-режимы, развитие персонажей и внутриигровые покупки. Формально Metal Slug здесь узнаётся: знакомые уровни, Марко, техника, боссы, стрельба сбоку. Только теперь между тобой и следующим весёлым взрывом периодически стоит меню размером с бухгалтерскую программу. Самое обидное — стрелять-то всё ещё бывает весело. Но классический Metal Slug был аркадным автоматом, который хотел сожрать твою монету; Awakening — мобильная игра, которая хочет сожрать твою привычку заходить каждый день. Серия прожила почти тридцать лет, чтобы наконец выяснить: генералу Мордену для мирового господства не хватало не армии, а сезонного пропуска и системы ежедневных наград.
Trash developers, a copy paste from the chinese version, nothing is fixed, support is just bots. Dead servers everywhere. Avoid!
It says "The test isn't available in your region" WTF?
Tested and does not run on Linux. No interest.
