As much as part of me wants to say that this is the superior game solely for the presence of the level editor (which is honestly half-cooked and will never be updated) as well as the character abilities, i feel a lot of gameplay mechanics were pretty watered down compared to HM1's, such as the fewer and more basic weapons, slower movement speed or the smaller view range. Still, it's really fun and satisfying when you manage to Rambo across a large room in this game, and the story definitely makes me think a bit higher of HM2.

Jake and Richter's levels imo were the most fun and the closest to that classic franctic HM1 gameplay.
