The explosive return of ludicrous gibs!

Rise of the Triad, a very modern take on classic ultra-violent FPS gameplay, filled to the brim with over-the-top humor and gore, and offering hours upon hours of fast-paced crazy action in single and multi-player mode, is available on GOG.com for only $14.99.

After nearly two decades one of the most memorable first-person shooters returns with a blood-dripping, gib-blasting, gun-slinging, rocket-spamming vengeance! The ominous organization known as "The Triad" is plotting to take over the world by force, terror, and apparent nazi symbolism. Is up to the agents of H.U.N.T.--High-risk United Nations Task-force--to stop the evildoers once and for all, preferably by splattering them all over their (not so) secret base walls. Be warned, there are even darker forces at play, here, as the Triad is known to dabble in the occult and demonic worship, as a way of reaching for power to obtain their evil goals. Oh, and it has a dog-mode.

Rise of the Triad: Modern K9 Warfare trailer

Rise of the Triad brings back everything we loved about the first-person shooters of the 1990s. Swarms of enemies, no hand-holding, awesome guns, badass one-liners, a pretense story, and ridiculous amounts of virtual guts flying all over the place--all checked and accounted for. Apart from a diverse and challenging single-player campaign, that pays a tribute to the game's predecessor, the new Rise of the Triad offers many multi-player game modes (the game supports its own DRM-free server network). The game's fully moddable and a robust creative tool comes with every copy, so you can extend your experience indefinitely. All that, for a fraction of the price of most modern FPS games of comparable scale!

We promise, nothing can make a classic FPS fan feel as good as spamming lead at the minions of evil and watching their insides painting the walls red in Rise of the Triad, for only $14.99 on GOG.com

Any (early, obviously) impressions to share?
The game will unlock in approximately 8 hours on Steam btw, so GOG'ers will play it first :)

COolies.I might just dive right on it then.Been a while since i played one of these type of games online
My thoughts entering GOG today:
>>Well, let´s have a look what game is reduced today...
Oh, a big metal wall...
Bam! "Rise" Bam! "Of" Bam! "The" Bam! "Triad"!!!
*dust is crawling along the wall*
Bam overkill?<<

Really, GOG, isn´t this to much advertising for just one old-shool-shooter?
Well, it´s made really cool---but damn, it´s just a shooter and not a hell of a game!

And---very nice work of your animation team!

I expect this to be pure awesome in MP. Hope their servers can take it...

The Launcher refuses to run, even when I disable my AV and "Run as administrator". I can still play the game by sifting through the *The Rise of the Triad* folder to Binaries -> Win32 and running it directly via the ROTT.exe found there. Thing is, all the advanced graphical options are only available in the game's launcher...

Thats preferable to the alternative now a days where you have no choice where to get the game and if a DRM free version arrives later on they strip out the multiplayer completely.

Looking forward to playing this later today.
Found a funny bug (I think), had a soldier running around with his face blown off, shooting at me and everything like he wasn't injured
I'm holding off until I see reviews.

The review embargo and holding the demo until post launch makes me very wary.
