SOF2 = extreme blowage
 

Got a lend of this off a friend today to play what shoulda been a good game, fuck does this game suck.

Theres so many tedious things about this game.

First off the enemys really piss you off, in jungle missions you can have every inch of you covered in camo gear and your face plastered in camo paint and hiding in tall grass, yet you sneak anywhere even remotely near to an enemy and the bastard immediately spots you and starts rattling away. Even if you're nowhere near the enemy they usually somehow spot you and start firing.

The sounds in this game absoloutely suck. The uzi's sounds like someone rapid fire farting, the m4 sounds like a toy and generally the sounds in the game are just shit.

The weapons models suck extreme amounts of ass as well. Caan someone PLEASE tell me why when texture artists are making a skin for a BLACK coloured weapon they ALWAYS make the damn thing grey??? It boggles the mind that these morons somehow see silver\grey when everyone else sees it as black.

The m4 carbine looks like complete bollocks, here is a weapon that is basically a cut down m-16 rifle but in this game it somehow manages to look about twice the size of an m-16a2 rifle and extremely bulky as well. The damn models barely even rounded and looks angular instead of being round. The reload animations a good laugh though, he inserts the magazine and then presses the charging button which just happens to not even be a part of the damn model. His thumb just presses mid air.

And wtf is up with the m4 grenade launcher? Unless the grenade actually lands on an enemy more often than not it doesn't even injure them, it just totally seems to lack any kind of splash damage.


M-60 in this game is a joke as well, heres a squad support weapon that specialises in spraying but in this game even taking short bursts at enemys a short distance away seems to have no effect whatsoever. The sniper rifle is another one thats good for a laugh, if you hit the enemy anywhere else but the head they seem to ignore the fact that theyve been shot and just keep on coming.

Only half decent thing about this game is the "ghoul system" which is fun for about 10 minutes if you;re lucky.

Also can anyone tel me what the FUCK is the point of having a prone system if you can't fire your gun from that position? ALso why are the terrorists running about mainly with m3 grease guns??

And have a look at this for a laugh

Think this guys been watching too much saturday night fever. I shot him like 30 secs before this was taken and the model was still sitting there jerking around.

Very dissapointing game which coulda been good :(

the character models look like dolls with big heads and small skinny limbs

The model in that pic acutally reminds me of a character in halflife :/

It was a nice try, but I'll take any game over that.

i only played the MP test and hated it.......

I too was dissapointed with SOF 2. It now sits uninstalled on a CD rack likly to never be installed again.

Has anyone else had the glitch were the enemy's walk at hyper speeed. The damage system is also pretty f'd. Oh well its not on my system anymore.

The multiplayer was pretty bad as well. Maps were big. All the simgle player issues craried over though.

It was a waste of my time. The gore was fucking nasty. Sure, it was cool, for the first 5 minutes. Ugh.

...aww c'mon...it's not all bad.....what about the level where you're in HQ, the "store".....rivetting stuff...
and all the chit-chat updates from HQ that take forever, but which I seem unable to skip.... sleep:

and yes, Gerard, the enemies vigilance, coupled with their use of Aimbot is awesome...[img]http://aff.ne-rangers.net/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]

On a scale of 1 to 10.....I'd take Redneck Rampage any day! eek:

...erm, yes...well, thanks for that.

Imo thers 2 good things about this game.

1. You can shoot the main gun out of an enemys hands and they will then draw their pistol.

2. The glass breaking effects are good.

Thats about it :/

i can never find the reply button damn it!!! yea i just downloaded the demo and that was enough for me. i think the graphics sucked M16: what game do u guys think has the best game character models? i say moh still owns the shits outa all game characters ever made. cant they make the gore with moh character detail? that would be sweet. but i think doom III will bring this wanting home. biggrin:

meh, the game has its obvious flaws, but its still quite fun. since i, erm, visited my "software distributer" i wasnt really disappointed. i thought the graphics were quite good, on a gf4 ti4200. the skins definately were sub-par though.

the good thing is it has full modding support. some great mods should be coming out soon, and raven is one development team that will stick around with the game, and keep crankin out patches and major updates. they also take in account of user feedback, just look at how much was changed from public beta to the full version.

So gay game, then?? Damn...I was going to get it too.......!

Many groups, and armies still use obsolete weapons its not uncommon, hell the m16 is from the early 60's as with the AK-47.
