VERDICT: Heavy Fire: Afghanistan is a well polished, if short, rail-shooter with cover mechanics, unlockable weapons and equipment, and quick-time events.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
15 of 205 sampled reviews raised it
Combat System - The game has a highly enjoyable combat system, throwing grenades, destroying tanks and cars, having to pick up ammo drops and grenades, the on-rails part of the game is a hit and miss with some players but I find it really fun to have to know where the camera is and avoid shooting my own teammates.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
