The storyline is set in s in the fictional world, where the Nazis have won the second world war. As a result, they are trying to take control over the whole world. The player takes the role of an American war hero named Blazkowicz, whose goal after leaving a mental hospital is to ultimately defeat his war enemies.
He is not afraid of any types of combats — he can fight melee, use all kinds of firearms, grenades, or knives. All these things can be used in order to gain advantage over the enemy.
The action of the game takes place in many nooks and corners of Europe. Our hero managed to visit almost all European countries. All of that combined with famous science-fiction elements we know from previous parts create an amazing atmosphere and ensures great entertainment. And how do you think you will handle the fight with war adversaries? Recommended Requirements Core i7 2. Burn or mount the image. Install the game. Good for them, but no added financial benefit for you, the consumer.
I'm part of the problem, as I downloaded the game anyway and didn't even bother to send a sternly worded letter to Sony. Hopefully digital prices will drop in the future, but there's no sign of that happening en masse yet. Then comes the download itself.
The 51 GB file size seemed pretty daunting, and I knew it would likely be a few hours until I was actually able to play. I started downloading at 8 AM and left it running as I worked. The problem with both Xbox One and PS4's download system is that it doesn't give you the rate of download.
PS4 at least gives you estimated time remaining, but even that is wildly inaccurate. My timer went from a hard-to-believe 41 minutes to 1 hour to 2 hours.
Then, when I came back maybe 50 minutes after I started, it was done. After finishing up some work, I tried to play the game at 10 AM, but found I was still denied. The game was trying to download a pair of patches, and failing to do so.
Both were about halfway downloaded, but kept dying as something was restricting them from completing. Finally, the first one finished about a half hour later, but the second struggled along like it was being dragged through digital mud.
Enter another problem. When PS4 fails to download something, it simply stops, and may or may not try again later at an unspecified point in time. What that meant for Wolfenstein was that for this last troublesome patch, I had to literally sit there with my controller hitting X to "retry" every five minutes. The PS4 would reconnect to the patch and download anywhere from nothing to MB before dying again.
I literally couldn't leave the room, or it would never get done. At long last, the game was ready. I hopped in, and played through the main tutorial level that has you running around a large warplane, putting out fires and dumping cargo out the back. The plane crashes, I jump to another one, and I'm about to start the next area where hopefully I get to start shooting Nazis. What the hell? I just spent forty five minutes playing patty-cake with my controller to make sure the last bit of data downloaded so I could start playing.
I looked in my notifications to see if anything was still downloading. I looked in the game information screen itself, which told me it was ready to go, and would only let me go back into the main menu of the game which would once again lead to the error screen. Finally, I just Googled the error message and found a forum full of others who had similar issues. So what was happening? Despite appearing like my 51 GB download finished lightning fast, I merely had downloaded enough of the game to start playing.
How on earth was I supposed to know this? Since the active download didn't appear in "downloads" or in the game info section itself, I literally had to go into the storage management of my PS4 and find Wolfenstein. The game info and storage info told me I had 51 GB downloaded, but it was only when I went into detailed storage info I finally found yet another progress screen. I'd only downloaded 8.
No download speed, no time remaining bar. The problem here is twofold with both Sony and Wolfenstein itself. There's no point to this "play as you download" system at all if I'm going to play for 15 minutes then have to wait another three hours for the rest of it. Now what do I do? Do I keep trying to resume the game every ten minutes to see if the next section is unlocked?
Do I keep playing and constantly wonder when I'm going to be booted out of the game next? And Sony is idiotic to hide this information so deeply in the bowels of the menus. How is the fact that I'm currently downloading a 51 GB game not in my downloads notification area?
How does it not say that on the game tile itself? Why did I have to go to a forum to uncover what was going on here? Sony wants to create the illusion that digital downloading is easy because you don't have to wait five hours to play a game that comes with a massive file size. They don't need to bother you with pesky information like background downloads because you're playing what you've already downloaded and having a good time, right?
If it worked like that, sure, but in this case the system backfired horribly leading me to almost delete and reinstall the game as a last resort as I couldn't deduce what the hell was going on. It would be done downloading long before I ran out of available content.
