Frontlines: Fuel of War is a large-scale warfare FPS much like Battlefield’s multiplayer but in a singeplayer setting. The short campaign revolves around the 125th Strike Division nicknamed "The Stray Dogs" fighting against the evil Red Star offensive in the Oil Wars. The gameplay is straightforward: Shoot the bad guys, capture and destroy objectives. It trades the lone-hero narrative for an interesting feature: When you die, you simply redeploy as another soldier, keeping the momentum of the battle moving. On the normal difficulty, enemies are too bullet-spongy for my taste, but changing to the easy difficulty solves that problem. There's environmental destruction as well, although it isn't quite as wild as Battlefield, you can still blast away enemy cover and sentries. You also get to pilot tanks freely in and out of battle, which is basic but remains very fun. The AI is surprisingly smart for both allies and enemies, contributing heavily to the immersion. You cannot give direct orders to your teammates, but they already follow your lead, automatically seek cover when under fire, and provide useful call-outs. They’ll let you know when an area is clear or pinpoint where an enemy is hiding. Enemies are smart enough to retreat when you capture an objective or advance too aggressively. They make excellent use of buildings and cover, making every firefight feel like a genuine struggle for the frontline. The game offers a nice arsenal and your soldier can carry a lot of equipment. Most notably, the RC toys with guns which makes you wish they were in more games. The sound design is also pretty good. The gunshots are aggressive and the cinematic score fits to the intensity of each mission. The main issue with this game is that it’s difficult to run on modern hardware, and its poor performance drains all your computer’s power. So before purchasing it, make sure you’re ready for troubleshooting! If you enjoy continuous gunfire, soldiers shouting and rockets flying at you, give this game a try.

I bought this game back in 2009 or so, one time it was on sale... and idk, never finished it xD So I just did (I had to install the nGlide wrapper and the legacy Physx drivers) and for a game from 2008, it is okayish. Nothing special to remark, although it was fun to play.

Even tho it says ive played for ~10 hours. I played this game my whole Childhood when growing up. If there was a "time played" section on this game like there is here on steam, it would be, for me playing this game, in the 10,000s for hours played. Really, ive played this game so much on the Xbox 360 I replayed the campaign like 600 times and still continue to play it. Yes it's a short campaign and not the most creative, but the game itself is really funny with the AI ragdoll death animations and the amount of weapons and vehicles for a game this size, also the storyline makes alot of sense, its just to understand the storyline more you need to to some research on google as the game doesn't show it all. Its sad THQ went bankrupt along with kaos as they made this banger.

I've played countless hours outside of steam, back when the game first came out. This game was my life for more than a year. What a nostalgia trip for me it is. A portal to simplier times.
