What drives the score

How to read this

Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.

The value story

June 2015 is where it bottomed out, at $9.79. Its cuts run 25 percent off as a rule. There have been 81 in the 13 years tracked, about 7 weeks apart. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 3 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 7 weeks.

Against its own genre it lands in the top 33 percent on value. It is pricier than 82 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 75 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 ($4.99, scores 63) beats it on value, while it beats Battlefield™ V ($4.99, scores 27).

This site sampled 509 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 4 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 63 percent of the 304 reviews written there were positive, against 87 percent overall, and those are 13 percent of everything written about it.

What players say

Expansion is very hard. It's fun but there are moments were ♥♥♥ keeps happening. Currently cannot get passed the Cover Anotov section. Not because it's a tough section, but because I keep getting shot through the tank he uses as cover. Or Anotov decides to stop walking in the middle of a cross fire area when he should to the next cover. Things like happen throughout the Expansion pack. It is a fun DLC but too buggy...

It is not as good as the base game but it is still kind of interesting to play in 2026. Some missions are quite nicely designed but I had a miserable experience because I was playing on the hardest level of difficulty. Enemies were sniping me quite frequently and in the late missions it was almost unplayable due to quite stretched checkpoints. Luckily I learned the magic trick with the F5 button (quick save) and I...

It's first CoD, but much harder. It was unexpected to see such a spike. Just so that you know, as soon as you start the game and have to complete the mission with foxholes and artillery shelling - if you happen to be at least a tiny bit late, you will be shelled, once again YOU WILL BE SHELLED and will die over and over and over again, unless you start the mission over. Some of the moments are still very good, and I...

[![BANG Score](https://steambangers.com/api/badge/2640)](https://steambangers.com/game/2640/call-of-duty-united-offensive)

The BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.

Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 3, price as of Sep 24.
