Modern Combat: Blackout
80
Grab It Magazine
Modern Combat 5 has the chops to go toe-to-toe with any big budget FPS. Well implemented touch control assists, deep customisation and heart-pumping action set Modern Combat 5 into the elite company of the best first-person shooters on iPad. [Episode 7, September 2014]
Modern Combat 5 delivers a shocking blow right after you launch the campaign as it turns out to be a hack job. Instead of traditional levels peppered with checkpoints and scripted cinematics as in previous MC games, you’re treated to a poor man’s version of Dead Trigger.
The game has wonderful graphics and an intuitive gameplay. In the app there are many missions and many game modes. There are no in-app purchases and the game requires a persistent internet connection. The controls are very simple and the game offers many hours of gameplay.

I remember playing this years ago. I actually had some hope in mobile gaming back them. The game was nice. Ok campaign, nice multiplayer. Then, it changed a lot to survive in the market. Unfortunately, it killed him. But yeah, i have a lot of nice memories from the good times.

The plays great! However, all the adds, stalling to encourage purchases just takes the life out of the game. I uninstalled it, but really liked it!. Hell, just charge me $30-$40 all at once, or so much a month, and let me play.

This game is recommended, because it uses great weapons and maps to fulfill the game. The game is free, which makes me want to rate this 10/10. This is not even basic, it is an advanced game!

Awesome game, totally lives up to the hype. The controls are smooth for a FPS and the changes to multiplayer are great. I know that the always online requirement has some people angry but I personally love it cuz I can level up through campaign and multiplayer. Totally recommend this game for anyone who likes FPS or games in general. The graphics are mind blowing but it's a blast to play as well. U can customs anything to fit your style of play. Pick this up, no iap as well!

A great game and a great production, probably a whole new standard for the genre on mobile devices. I would rather to see a more mature plot, but nevertheless Modern Combat 5 is loud and fun, and should be enough for fans.

Even with the control issues, DRM nonsense, and lack of real innovation, Modern Combat 5 is probably the best example of the genre on mobile. The fun may be loud and dumb, but fans will doubtless fall victim to its explosive charms.

Modern Combat 5: Blackout is a good first person shooter for iOS and Android devices with a great graphic engine and lots of contents. The only bad news is that you have to be connected online even to play the single player missions.

Modern Combat 5 is probably one of the best FPS games for iOS, but that doesn't make up for its flaws. With constant crashes, the game is frustrating at times, which really makes things just bad. For progression in this game, its one of the hardest things to do without spending too much. The energy system forces you to stop playing every 10 minutes, then has you wait for 30 more to reach full recharge. To add on, the requirements for chapters to be unlocked are very difficult to fulfill. To me, the dev's Modern Combat 5 has done everything right, but just ruined the game for the sake of you emptying your wallet.

It was shaping up to be yet another entry. Nothing amazing but still entertaining. However the singleplayer campaign had far too much filler between sections. It's a nice game in itself, but some of it felt like I was just grinding to get to the next story level. The style of previous incarnations may not have been original with one level after the next, but it worked a whole lot better.
