As much as I'd like to rate this game highly, I can not. It was created for the consoles (X360/PS3) and back-ported to the PC and it shows. There is no dedicated server or good online matchmaking menu. Also, there are no graphical options that the user can set and there is no anti-cheat like Punkbuster. The story is passable (not really central or important) and the gameplay has been cited as linear and predictable with scripted enemy spawning. This is true, but the levels are always fairly interesting graphically and the gunplay is (I think) awesome. That is where this game shines. The CloakNT 3 engine used in this game (created in-house by Cauldron) looks and feels great. There is a very nice feel to all the guns in multiplayer (assuming you are not lagging) and there are a myriad of customizations to apply to the guns. This makes for a fairly fun and quick multiplayer game. The multiplayer suffers because there is no visible ping check nor dedicated server utility and no user maps because WorldStudio has not been released updated to be compatible with anything but Chaser (CloakNT 1). These issues aside, it is a pretty fun MP game with a SP that will be largely forgotten.Read full review
I would pass on this game ... if you love Call of duty or rainbow six games or medal of honor games or far cry games or even older soldier of fortune games LOL ... the aiming is awful ... u have to watch the bullets (tracers) to actually hit terrorists ...the sights are way off ...and you will waste half your ammo by using their targeting circle ... the game would have been awesome 6 years ago the graphics are ok for today but not great ... and the movement is crazy when you run.. no peaking but you can jump ... I liked the last soldier of fortune game "Double Helix" but that was 5 years ago ??? I think .. Good Lucky if you buy the game
Pros + Good graphics + Can have weapons in both hands (dual pistols ect.) + Various locations + Can blow off someones leg with shotgun + Many weapons and attachments Cons - Limited number of online servers, even after upgrading patch - No dedicated servers - Glitches in multi-player such as players models not being skinned - Blood was very unrealistic - Enemy AI was really dumb If this was just a single player game I'd give it a 3 out of 5. However, the multi-player was so disappointing the game has to receive a lower rating. As for the single player it was much better than multi-player.I have a few good battles such as the last match with Ethan Wall and the battle with his brother. Although the storyline was somewhat good, the enemies were dumb as rocks and this caused me to beat single player quickly. I would not recommend this game to a friend. I suggest Call Of Duty 4 as an alternative as its multi-player has many dedicated servers. It also has modern weapons as well.Read full review
I bought this game because at times I like to shut off my brain and just go house. The graphics are pretty good but the gameplay lacks. This game is very linear and the AI is very dumb. One of the worst parts is the "boss fights". They are another human but take loads of ammo to kill. It got to the point where I would actually run out of ammo and have to use the knife to keep the boss in an animation untill he died. No exaggeration, it must have taken about 2-3 minutes of knifing to kill the boss. This is a game you get for 5-10 bucks to have a laugh at for a while, but thats about it. The copy I got had the original SoF in it and that was the main selling point for me. I like to go back and play oldies from time to time. Oh and by the way, did I mention it is gory? They introduced the GHOUL system with the first game and tried to make it the selling point of this one. It just goes to show tons of blood and body parts dosen't make a game.Read full review
