    Don't bother with this game. Full of bugs and multiplayer doesn't work. I have no clue how is this even allowed to be published on Steam.

    The game is a 10 but the optimization and remasterization is a joke...the game is playable but you need to disable the V-Sync, disable on the game file the fullscreen optimization, don't use fire (lag spikes the game) and don't use alt+tab. I'll change the review when the game can be played with those problems solved

    Basically a piece of garbage. I have never gotten this game work without some issue that made it unplayable. The original game is much more compatible with modern systems than this which is supposed to be a remaster...

    Do not buy this game, it's just broken and will not work properly in any modern operating system. Even if you go all the steps of the support from team17 page, game won't work properly. Depening on your hardware it won't even start, i needed to force it to integrated graphics for it just to start, and even then it barely works. Remastered my ass, feels like an ms-dos game that you can't manage it to work, don't do this to yourself even if it's a beloved game like it is for me. Oh and the game…

    It's a quick cashgrab that coasts off one of the classic Worms titles, with its most glaring problem being that it's not even fully functional. The bare minimum for a remaster should be to be compatible and fully playable with modern systems, and WWP Remastered fails on that front: in order to properly play the game you'll have to make some adjustments first and to make the multiplayer work you'll even need to change your router configurations. You can go to the Guide section to see how to fix…

    Worms World Party is my favourite entry in the series, among the very first PC games I ever played in fact. So it pains me greatly to punch it with a negative score like this. Not only is the game missing content (speech banks, flags (some of which are available in other entries), and the Christmas mission), but worst of all: The game released, and has remained in, a very sorry state. Floating white boxes and rectangles that plague most screens, lag, specially when you trigger big explosions…

    Your worst enemy in Worms World Party is pressing Alt + Tab. What this does is break the menu - clicking anywhere doesn't work after using that command. The rest of the game is pretty much Worms Armageddon but with a few fun factor enhancements in deathmatch, crate match types being one of them. In case you're using Windows 10 as I was, you might encounter a weird game-breaking bug right from the start: a huge white box in the left corner that doesn't disappear, neither in the menu nor during…

    Many reviews claim the game won't run. I have found only two issues: 1. White box in some game modes, which can be fixed by disabling screen optimization for the game exe (see Guides section if needed). 2. Black Options screen - haven't found a fix for this one, but I don't need it that much. Rest of the game works fine.

    Back in the old days of gaming, you didn't have to look far for some seriously fun strategic gameplay and there wasn't much better out there than the series that is known simply as Worms. Revered for its creative premise by controlling a team of cartoon-like worms as you aim to destroy the enemy team by means of various weaponry and tools at your disposal alongside various missions that tested your knowledge of the game and how competent of a strategist you are on the go, it is no small wonder…

    Most of the menus doesn't work, they glitch out or even crash the whole game. And creating games with friends is really difficult because your personal internet connection has to match certain exact settings for it to work. Which is a shame because the gameplay is classic worms.

  • Steam user Steam user …0888Steam reviews · Jul 17, 2024

    they should fix the crashes and the black and white boxes covering the screen. also. small suggestion, if you fix it: make it remote play together. it'll help a lot of people enjoy it once they get bored of single player and/or random matchmaking, too

    Worms World Party was released back in 2001 and was the next game after the very popular Worms Armageddon, so expectations were high. It uses the same engine, so it’s very similar in terms of visuals and gameplay. It added some new features, with a bigger focus on online multiplayer, but overall, it feels slightly off. The single-player campaign has more missions. It’s a bit easier but less interesting, with more emphasis on platforming. And the weird ranking system is still here, so gold…

    Not sure if this one or Armageddon was my fave, but this version is definitely NOT remastered. An insane amount of artifacts, issues, bugs, glitches... you have to disable fullscreen optimisations (right click w2.exe, properties, compatibility tab) just to get rid of white boxes.

    I remember this game from my teenage years as a super fun and awesome way of playing with friends. So when I found it here on Steam I was stoked. Unfortunately however it is incredibly buggy and unplayable. Game will not let me play in any other mode rather than single player. Even then I would get a black screen or partially blanked out screen. Gutted it didn't work out as I was hoping to play this for a long time. Thanks to Steam for fast support and refund.

    Had to deal with white boxes by myself (turn off fullscreen optimisations), then lagging (had to make an exception in windows security app), which is manageable... but yeah, while my campaign approach is trial and error, the fact that i get help in the form of additional boxes that can't even be turned off is an insult for a player.

    As others have said, this doesn't work on any modern PC due to comaptibility issues. It is not REMASTERED at all, it's the same game that was released decades ago and now computers and operating systems it was made for are obsolete and the code wasn't updated. Don't bother, it is a scam.

    If you get a lot of lag when there are fire effects (embers), do this to reduce the lag: Right-click on the game in steam Manage... Browse local files Go to "Data" folder Go to "Wav" folder Go to "Effects" folder Delete or cut and paste elsewhere the "SIZZLE" sound file Go to "Remastered" folder Delete or cut and paste elsewhere the "SIZZLE" sound file Note that this will remove the sound when the embers are burning. This reduced the "fire lag" by 50% for me.

    Worms World Pary was, at the time of it's release, the best in the series. That is why I belive it is inexcusable how it turned out to be. Cons: -Some minor bugs (like white boxes and stuff) that YOU will have to learn how to fix. -Terrible performance, how can a 2000's game run like trash, making a 2017 PC implode (GTX 1050)? I had to circurvent this downloading a beta version without this problems. -Censorhip. You like funny accents and edgy weapons names? Welp, they are mostly gone.…

This game has great sounds but that's the only positive. When you run the game, it stutters quite badly. When anything like explosions happen, then the stuttering is worse and clearly visible. I have a Windows 11 laptop that has an i5 processor with an RTX 3050 graphics card, so it plays lots of 3D games without any issues, so I am unsure…
