Delta Force Black Hawk Down Modern Day FPS, PC game Let me start by saying, WOW. I love this game. Bought it about a year ago, maybe more, before I had the Internet. After I beat the story twice, I tried to get online, but, I didn't have my CD key. Luckily, Novalogic didn't make you have it to play online, so I had fun for a while. But then, The bastards made it so you HAD to have your CD key. Damn them x( So anyway, on to the Review. Story: 7/10. Not much here, since the game doesn't have much of a story. You're part of the Delta Force Squad on Somalia, America's finest. There's about 11, maybe 12 missions, each one lasts from 15 minutes to a half hour. You range from going clearing out building after building, trekking across a wilderness, fighting off crocs with your knife while swimming (don't wanna get your weapon dry) and stealth missions with a suppressed m16 (of course, its more fun to blow up trucks with a shotgun and piss off your squad). All in all, there really is no point to beating the story. You don;t unlock anything, and there's no spoilers. You just beat it to beat it. No other difficulties, and the guys die usually in one hit. But, the story mode is still fun. But, its an FPS made mostly for online, so, who cares about story? :sonic: Gameplay: 10/10. Flawless. Absolutely flawless. You can basically do whatever you want, from knives, frag nades, smoke, satchels, claymores, atp anti tank rockets, to emplaced weapons like granade launchers, .50 cals, and things like that. You can jump into an auto piloted black hawk and man a minigun, or snipe from it if you want a bigger challenge. some of the emplacements move, like, you can jump into a .50 cal armed jeep and drive around the map, shooting the shit out of everything as you go along. The environments are interactive, you can shoot trucks and blow them up, gas tanks, All sorts of stuff. hide behind a bus and snipe through the windows, it makes great cover without blocking your view too much. You can, of course, lean left and right, hide behind sandbags, and things like that. One of my favorite parts of this game is the maps themselves. They are HUGE. Or, small, whichever you prefer. They aren't enclosed, and you can go in any building with an open door. the number of places to hide are limitless. As if the numerous and large maps weren't enough, The makers had the generosity to give you the mission editor they use THEMSELVES, so you can make custom stages with limitless size. And these maps you can use online, too, so you can see user created maps, as well as show off your own. And, of course, they're files on your computer, so you can email them if you want. :D Graphics: 6/10. If the game has any weak point at all, Its this one. Graphics are sort of foggy, And all the bad guys look the same. But, the graphics don't seem to affect the gameplay, the physics are well thought out. They're not even that bad, and, I consider this almost a pro. Its great for computers that don't kick ass with graphics. Even so, they're not that bad. Explosions look good. They're just not as good as Call of Duty. They're basically last-gen, but pretty good for last-gen. Multiplayer: 9.5/10. Fun, fun, fun. A lot of modes, little lag, you can use any weapon you want, different classes, experience, and other things. There's Death matches, Team Death Matches, King Of the Hill, Capture The Flag, Flagball (one flag) Search and Destroy, and Attack and Defend. Most maps feature armories, so if you get bored of your CAR15, you can switch to a sniper without waiting til the end of the match. The only problem I have with the multiplayer has nothing to do with the game itself, just the users. A famous Black Hawk Down phrase is "Claying the Armories." Armories mostly feature a few corridors before you get to it, and people find it fun to place Claymores in there. They camp there too, which is annoying. But besides that, its a lot of fun. You can have up to, I believe, 48 players. Hosting a match is another problem. Most of the BHD servers are SERVER servers, made by large gaming sites or Novalogic themselves. The chances of getting someone to join your server are small. But servers have unlimited options when you created them, even what weapons you want down the the singular guns. BHD is all about options. Overall: 9/10. A fun game meant to last a long, long time, with an assload of weapons, maps, And lots of stuff. While there are no unlockables, the pure fun of online play will keep you on it for a while. At a price of 10 bucks, its a game I do not suggest you miss. Nothing more satisfying than sniping someone in the face from the highest rooftop, or massacring a squad of terrorists with ak47s. Go out, get a copy, and have some fun.
