Iron Storm [Games]

Finished up [[amazon:B00006HCHF Iron Storm]] this weekend. Your standard first person shooter with a twist in the storyline: What if World War I had never ended? You play as an Allied soldier, fighting hordes of envisioned-1960s-technology equipped Germans and Russians (wait, wasn’t Russia fighting Germany?).

I did have to use the Walkthrough to get through some parts of the game. Sometimes it is just not obvious where to go, or that a particular object needs activating. And some of the enemies are uncannily accurate :)

Over the game is pretty much just okay. The gameplay can be frustrating at times. They should have done better bounds checking—I kept getting shot through walls, as an enemy’s rifle barrel would project through the wall. At first the game feels completely strange, something is untangibly klunky about the interface. But after a weekend of playing, I was getting into it.

    I have just started Iron Storm and am really enjoying it. However I find myself stuck. I am at the Church, early on in the game. One walkthrough says that if you go right on the map, you will find an opening in the barbed wire. I have been unable to do to. If anyone can help me out, how do I get to the church itself? I would appreciate your reply.
