BattleZone 98 Redux
Description
One of the greatest sci-fi strategy games of all time returns with remastered visuals and online multiplayer.
Enter an alternate vision of the 1960s where the “space race” is nothing more than a cover for an interplanetary war between the US and Soviet Russia over mysterious alien bio-metal.
Take command of an army of sleek heavy assault tanks, strike cruisers, APCs and more, and wreak havoc with super-heated projectiles in your mission to blast your enemy from the face of the Moon, Mars, Venus, Titan, Io and Europa.
Scavenge the battlefields for crucial bio-metal, deploy powerful defenses, construct advanced facilities and escalate each battle to an epic confrontation.
Revolutionary, revitalised and remastered, Battlezone 98 Redux’s blend of thrilling first person action and tense RTS gameplay is as essential now as it ever was.

New graphics, no LAN
This once WAS a great game. Now it is destroyed by greed of new owners. - They removed "free" multiplayer (no LAN/TCPIP) - They bloated graphics - THEY MADE CLASSIC VERSION UNOBTAINABLE The community is no more, you can't play it on LAN with friends But you can still play singleplayer with new graphics You can still enjoy it and hope for the original to come back some day in "goodies" section

Steam Version, the better version
The steam Version of this game has workshop integration, which you will need to be able to get additional maps i guess, since the developers are too cheap to host them themselves. first, I have been told the shading has been improved, but i can't see it.. the shadows aren't really visible to me, it's beneath me, not in view, and the other ships, i can't really tell you, cause every time one enters my screen the game lags, it kind of hiccups, and by the time i can react i am dead, every time, knowing where they are and all beforehand, dead, dead, dead, over and over. This is the beginning of the NSDF campaign, that's what I have tried. this happens the first time the drone pops up in the training mission as well. it has full HD now, not that you can tell that.. even on a PC like this that's LESS than 3 weeks old. it is a loveless work, if you have good memories of this game from the old days as i had, I gotta tell you, go back to Freespace Open, this is a bust. you can't reach Rebellion really, they just have their little Muppets come talk in circles with you, like this: https://www.gog.com/forum/battlezone_98_redux/what_about_the_old_classic_version a Redux should include the original for historical purposes, most do, this doesn't. a games modding shouldn't be singular platform and should instead be hosted by the producer for the access of all, and not just Steam, using their workshop (trying to be even cheaper than cheap, they want to be able to work for profit and their supplies should be free so YOU should pay for that). so if you want a DRM free version, let me point out you will have the campaigns and they really don't care about the rest, it's on you. Buyer beware. you will want the Steam version for the workshop (Gog will love that remark i am sure, but it is truth (PS. it's also 5$ more here at GOG to miss out on the workshop). Isn't Galaxy itself a form of DRM? it is REQUIRED for multiplayer. the original was better. needs an anti-redux mod.
