No one told me about state of the game
I brought this game expecting a game that would be overrated, deeply flawed and half-suck but would still half-deliver an unique experience of planning mixed with realistic-ish gameplay. For I wanted some Raven Shield but with smaller maps. But I didn't expect to get a dumpster fire. Especially for a GOG release. First, you have to use Voodoo something wrapper thingie in order to get the game running at all. Then you have to get game's CD or so to get Redbook audio as it wasn't included in. And then I think you need another software in order to have them loop properly. Alas, it's not the end yet, for some characters models are broken in GOG version thus the entities themselves don't load during game itself. Check the forum to find archive of fixed files. And even then during gameplay you will be endlessly pissed as game randomly decides to freeze during loading. Blah, and I used to think that GOG gives so much more care in getting old games run properly. None the less, here. Tactical shooter. One of the first. Be horrified at how 1998 game looks so much uglier than Quake 1 and 2. Enjoy some planning, while not being able to specify such things as "wait for two guards to come out by making a noise" and "enter the room by stacking against both sides". Enjoy being frustrated that game refuses to set far pathpoints, especially if you want to go back through the same path that you went it. Get pwned in-game until you turn auto-aim on because you get many heavy penalties while moving and turning while AI doesn't and can insta-aim between targets. And because high mouse sensetivity. Get angry because teammates tried to clear a room and ended up stucking in a chair. The only chair in a room because rooms are barebone otherwise. Can't lean around corners. You get it. It delivers on unique mix of planning and action but it's still fairly low on enjoyment level. And with technical issues, well, you better stick with Raven Shield, even though it's not butterflies either.
