This game makes me feel ill when playing it. It's not so much the gore but all the screams of pain

>> No.4253641

Where do you even find this game? It's not on Steam or GOG.

I think Elite Force is the better Raven game from 2000

I still prefer Shadow Warrior Classic's riot gun.

Quad-barrel shotgun, two fire modes, single shot or four-shot rapid fire.

Also Soldier of Fortune II: Double Helix had the Daewoo USAS-12. Full auto shotguns are always fun.

really? I never bothered because I figured it would just be licensed trash, I know its raven and I should trust them but star trek damn do you only get a phaser or what

I dunno man, I like the riot gun but some things always bugged me about it.

>that annoying reload
>the brutal recoil
But I must admit it did have some pretty fucking satisfying audiovisual feedback.

Imagine Quake 3 with a full blown singleplayer campaign and better weapons with alt fire modes. Phaser is just your starting weapon and a replacement for the gauntlet.

also you have to extract the .iso files to install it or else it will say you have an unsupported OS
if you have performance issues, rename stvoy.exe to Quake3.exe

SoF is a pretty mixed bag leaning towards mediocre but damn if that first map isn't intense and brutal as hell

It's fun as long as you play under challenging. Game clearly wasn't designed for the higher difficulties.

I had no idea this existed. I looked it up and youtube and there is a minute of loading for the opening cutscene followed by two minutes of loading to get in the game. Also the shotgun reload sounds ridiculous. It's impressively smooth for what was a modern pc shooter though.

Double Helix was a really bad proto CoD. The door gunner missions are agonizing.

>> No.4254496

>>4254348
changing the EXE is cause some of those idtech games hit GL limits right? and driver makers hardcoded exceptions for the quake games cause they are still popular. I know heretic 2 has that problem and crashes when you try and launch it but renaming it quake2 fixes it.
