Other levels were certainly more realistic and there was even some bad weather tossed in that reduced visibility. It was so good it actually defied reality as there was no haze on the horizon or variable LOD – everything was pristine and in focus from my feet to the horizon. The graphics are breathtaking in places with great lighting, special effects, texture detail, and a draw distance to the crystal clear horizon, and all running at a smooth 60fps. One of the only good aspects of Vigor is the map and the unique levels it contains. You can even buy insurance to protect your loot if you get shot before escaping the level via the exit. You can invite friends to join your game from your Shelter, and once you enter the pre-game lobby you have a chance to assign various boosters.
They either sucked, wouldn’t chat, or would turn against their own team. The few times I played with strangers (killing time waiting for my teammates) did not go well.

Playing with others can be fun but only if you are playing with friends you know, and since the game is free it shouldn’t be hard to convince any with an Xbox to give it a shot. Just hit the key locations and ransack the levels as much as possible. If you are playing alone then enemy avoidance is the way to go. The game can be approached in several ways. There is a nice level of cold despair in the atmosphere as you race around collecting loot and trying to stay alive. The Unreal Engine has never looked quite this good with a mix of sprawling landscapes and other urban environments. Vigor plays from a typical third-person view as you traipse across some stunning scenery. There is a nice selection of mission locations to choose from or you can jump into Quick Play for a random level selection that will often load up a match 2-3 times faster than trying something specific. There is minimal customization, so it gets a bit weird in the pre-game launcher when you often see multiple versions of the same person, especially early on before people start creating custom loadouts. You’ll need to create a character but the pickings are slim with only nine models, only three of which are female. Vigor takes place in 1991 Norway, the last safe place after the nuclear war in central Europe. In the past I’ve been a big fan of Bohemia Interactive’s games such as ArmA and the Operation: Flashpoint franchises, and while Vigor certainly achieves a certain level of technical prowess, the experience falls apart after the first hour or so about the time you realize this is purely a platform created to launch an assault on your wallet. I was provided a code, so I didn’t even realize it was a “free to play” game on the Xbox otherwise flags would have already been raised. I had no idea what I was getting into when I signed up to review Vigor.
