Rise of the Triad was the first FPS with rocket jumping, first with jump pads (that enemies can use to, leading to mid air shootouts up to five stories high) first with 11 player multiplayer, first with gore settings and parental locks, first with missle chase cam and a shit ton more. A game unbelievably ahead of it's time.

Play based RISE OF THE TRIAD. Or are you too much of a poseur FPS fan?

Its not wiki articles friend, those are quotes mostly from Joe Siegler's blog and the famous ROTT in HELL article. They're interesting facts you WON'T find in a wiki article outside maybe a single sentence. It was a truly unique and fascinating game and I will continue to share these cool facts about Rise of the Triad. They are on topic and if you are truly bothered by it then hide the posts. As for the images, there is no need to rip my own sprites or scan my own art in if someone else already has.

When reminiscing about the development of RoTT when it's source code was released:
>"ROTT, for all its tortured technology, all its semi-justified graphics, did have some stuff that there was to be proud of. It was the first game with Rocket Jumping, the first game with Jumppads, the first game with parental password and Violence level adjustment, the first game with Capture the Flag..."
