There is a first-person mode but since you can only use it when standing still it's virtually useless. Aside from that the control isn't too bad.
This happens so often that it's very easy to get confused and even lost in a single room! A map in the corner attempts to help but is virtually useless. The most frustrating thing is when the viewpoint switches between various cameras (and angles) while trying to move through a room. To make matters even worse, you have absolutely no control over the camera at all. First and foremost this game falls victim to the dreaded camera angle disease - you can't see where you're going most of the time. They completely wrecked what was a great potential for a really cool game. Today's game developers seem to follow the tenet of 'this is an interactive movie, a work of art, not a game.'? The Terminator: Dawn of Fate is a prime example of why this sort of thinking just doesn't work when it comes to creating a good game. ("We're going to be working on the camera until they tell us to stop and the game ships," Tabor says.) Here's hoping. To ensure a cinematic feel, Paradigm opted for a third-person perspective and a dynamic camera that currently, to put it mildly, makes us want to chuck our cookies. Battles can be fought in close quarters mano a mono or with any one of the game's 15 or so long-range weapons. "This is a relentless action game," says Lead Designer Ken Tabor. A rather intriguing storyline should keep players hooked like trout-the developers have created a new faction of cybernetic men called the Digihumans and thrown in a subplot involving a human traitor.
These formidable foes quickly learn to raise their arms to deflect bullets, teleport in a gorgeous flash of pink and blue, and explode brilliantly when stabbed by the humans' plasma baton. New and never-before-seen Terminators such as the hulking, rusted-out T-400S and the more modern T-8oos haunt the game's levels. Though still early in its development stage, Dawn of Fate may hold magic in the mold. Mission-based play initially sees the humans on the defensive, slugging it out with Skynet's forces in a shattered Los Angeles, but shifts gears as the game progresses and, ultimately, the fight ends up on Skynet's doorstep.
Players take the role of humans Kyle Reese, Justin Perry and Katherine Luna as they attempt to thwart the vile Skynet's schemes with extreme prejudice. Fortune favors the brave, and also those who pack heat in excess.
