Let us not hide the fact that the original Star Wars: Empire At War has turned out not so perfect, what we were promised the master lightsaber and coaches of the Force. But the game is still remembered as one of the brightest strategic projects this year. And continued, as always, did not make the wait. Surprisingly, the authors of such a short time managed to not just planed plastic 25 new fighter jets with the prefix «TIE» to the drawings of loyal fans.
In the Galaxy, which is almost thirty years, torn to pieces by two irreconcilable sides on the screens of all cinemas, hooked the third and extremely dangerous roommate. For which, moreover, the police hunted the whole space, because as a new contestant for power over a couple of dozens of planets - the criminal syndicate. Of course, without all kinds of bandits, smugglers and other gentlemen of fortune and it had not bypass it, but they mostly loomed on the sidelines, and certainly never get stuck in an epic confrontation between the Empire and the rebels. Forces of Corruption will present the criminals and murderers as an equal by the previous parties, with the features, complexities and attractive skills. As you look at the fact that "corrupt officials" are able to control entire planets, not sending them to the borders of an impressive fleet and not planted on the surface of the companies of soldiers? If you have boarded the ship of space pirates, the previous experience to take over the worlds, obtained during the campaigns Star Wars: Empire At War, no longer useful. Why?

Empire is fighting for universal domination, the rebels - for freedom, and the syndicate - for profit. That's money for them - the same force with which the Jedi got rid of difficulties. Especially it was often necessary to use on the global map game where indicated schematically planet, fleet, and your advisers have been meeting. To some little world came under your control, it is enough to send him to a man who will slip a bribe to local authorities, to carry out sabotage, lower production rates and perform other "harmless" dirty tricks. If things are going in your favor, it becomes possible to "merge" a significant amount of budget authority in the treasury of the syndicate. On the stolen money right there on the black market are bought exclusive drawings of engines, tanks, and even entire vehicles. As soon as I gain enough cruisers for the fleet and departure from the spaceport, you can forget about limited flights within a zone a few friendly worlds.If before your fleet blew into orbit another planet, this meant the inevitable battle that takes time and precious ships. Playing for the syndicate, you pop into his pocket a small bribe the manager and without excessive fire losses and moor to the desired planet. So it is enough to keep a tight wallet in his pocket, so it can freely travel about drowning in strife galaxy. It is noteworthy, but to take "dirty money" murderers and extortionists are not shy, even ambitious and high moral rebels.

In any case, the parasite on other people's worlds will soon get bored and want to see an army of spaceships and a new side in action. Tactics ground battles for the syndicate is not much different from the style of fighting Imperials or resistance. As before, you have teams with strengths and weaknesses, which are good only for certain types of enemy. Externally, the new units look great, and it also applies to small recharge for the other two sides. But most of all attracted to space battles. For starships syndicate designers can easily write a premium, which is enough for a two-week vacation in the Caribbean archipelago. And heavy cruisers, destroyers and light bandits after the first meeting of haunting, as it once was with the X-Wing, TIE-Fighter and Star Destroyer. Incidentally, the Empire has a new monster class Star Destroyers »Eclipse, which in size and power comparable only with the Death Star.
Model soldiers and ships, though look incredibly, but still felt worn and negligence pictures. Space is a murky black texture with randomly scattered white dots stars. Yes, and terrestrial landscape is markedly lacking diversity and outstanding facilities.
But who should be considered deserts and grasslands, where the battlefield buzzing lightsabers and laser flash flash? Any battles set in the best traditions of fantasy Lucas, so fighting in Forces of Corruption - present a spectacle of special effects with the wagon, not a nuisance and a headache.
The new campaign takes place for some eight hours. During several missions to the new party so get used to that allotted time, it seems crime is not enough. But the developers do not expect to stay on a single supplement. At the last Electronic Entertainment Expo LucasArts representative hinted that the new game with brand Empire At War is in development. Will there be a complete part two? If you want to know - to stay in touch.
