Project Reality

Project Reality is a multiplayer shooter developed by Project Reality Team. The production started out as a modification for Battlefield 2, but after nearly ten years of development process its creators were forced to release it as a standalone version because of DICE's game being withdrawn from sale. It was released in late May 2015, tagged as version 1.3.

The game allows the players to control soldiers of a dozen virtual representations of the armed forces of the United States, Russia, Britain, Canada, France, Poland, Norway, Germany, and several other countries. The gameplay is much more realistic than what we could see in Battlefield 2, the game that was originally intended to be the base for Project Reality. In combat, the cooperation between team members is equally, if not even more crucial than individual skills of the soldiers. A very important aspect of the production is communication. The players can communicate within their team, collectively agreeing on actions, while the commander can also speak to his subordinates individually. The gameplay is heavily influenced by realistic ballistics, influencing the arms' damage output and range. Another factor contributing to the realism of the game is the minimalist HUD that displays only the most important information. As far as the soldiers themselves are concerned, they are hardly superheroes and their movements are rather sluggish.
