Although the game has nothing in the realm of totally new or innovative gameplay it is really fun. Frontlines: Fuel of War is a great playing game with all the earmarks of a long lasting multiplayer first person shooter.
Frontlines: Fuel of War is brought to gamers by THQ and KAOS Studios to the PC and the XBox 360 console in all its first person glory. Fuel of War is a very fun game even though it does not have all the high ratings or outstanding reviews, it is a fun game that has all the right elements of a well made first person shooter.
Frontlines: Fuel of War follows a common modern shooter theme with the story line of war for the sake of oil reserves. Protecting or getting their hands on the fuel that runs all those military machines is the main storyline and you find yourself fighting for that reason, or just to kick some butt military style. The story is a decent one but not all that necessary in the grand scheme of things as you only really need a decent game to have a reason to fight for one side or the other.
In the multiplayer portion of the game you have the usual team based play with equal weapons and a wide open battlefield so the multiplayer starts out pretty good. The maps are nice sized with plenty of cover as well as wide open areas for the large tanks and other vehicles.
The weapons and vehicles are nicely textured and realistic with a good amount of realism for things like recoil and sound so there are no complaints about them. The scenery is a really good looking rustic battlefield type with plenty of damage all over as well as destructible. The game plays well and there are plenty of great things about it but there is nothing over the top or even fantastic about it.
