As someone that played SWAT III - Close Quarters Battle, I can surely say that SWAT IV is a downgrade of such greate game. The Officers AI is poor, they don't have the same independance that SWAT III Officers had. The criminals seem more intelligent than my own AI companions. The score requirements for each difficulty, although is something nice, it prevents the player to have a full experience. The best way to have 100 points on Elite Difficulty is by having all your loadout as Pacifist with Pepper Gun, Taser or other Less Lethal weapons/bullets as one reaction out of time would count as "unauthorized use of lethal force". Yeah, because the criminal pointing a AK on me, hitting my legs, arms, torso and as I take him out the game subtracts 10 points is very fair. Why the Lead and his Officers are so glass-like that even a shot taken from the weakest weapon in the game instakill them?
