Operation swat

Operation swat, developed by WhackAKey Games and published by Conglomerate 5, is a first-person tactical shooter that aims to simulate small-scale SWAT operations through a mix of direct combat and basic squad command mechanics. It places players in the role of a team leader tasked with clearing hostile environments, rescuing hostages, and coordinating a group of AI-controlled officers.

Monotonous gameplay, stupid AI and boring missions.

This game is traumatizingly laggy. Case to point, just to exit from the laggy tutorial to the surprisingly lag-free menu, it took loading (AND UNLOADING) of about 2.0 gigabytes of RAM content. This took like 10 minutes. The task manager shows it loading assets and then dumping them even though it is not even close to filling the available RAM (I am giving the bloated Unreal Engine a rare benefit of a doubt.) The only good thing in this game is the powerful gunshot sounds. The muzzle fire animations look goofy and low-res as hell. This thing looks like something that should run with 200 megabytes of data instead of 10 gigabytes. It was funny to see sunshine effects on a brick wall INSIDE A HOUSE WITH NO WINDOWS. :D

The gameplay lacks variety and is boring. The game feels like a simplified corridor shooter.
