<div class="IPBDescription">For those who hate it</div> Soldier of Fortune 2... I despise C-strike, and I hate anyone who likes it (Yes, this mean YOU) with a fierce passion. (One of my friends said 'you should play counter-strike, it's the best game ever!, so I slugged him).

Anyway, it's um... really nifty and neat in multiplayer. Plus, the general skill level is really really not-so-great so you DO have a chance of actaully LIVING in this game!

    I was never too good at twitchy FPS games. If I play an FPS, it's usually either a stealth game or tactical shooter (Half-Life and Max Payne being about the only exceptions to this). I'm mainly into RTS.

    And NS is an RTS, in case you didn't know. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Max Payne is more like a chase cam though.. sort of like Hitman 2 (which I used to play obsessively). I'm not a big fan of FPSes myself, I could never get into that sort of thing aside from Half-Life and the mods, I'm more of an RPG fan.

    Speaking of CS, has anyone tried the IGI2 multiplayer demo? It's pretty much like CS, a good side, kinda like marines, versus a bad side, kinda like terrorists, which have to complete objectives in the map. Doing so and killing enemies gives you money, in which you can buy different guns in a text based menu.

    I'm waiting for the single player demo of IGI2, which comes out on the 16th.

    I'm more into single player storyline than anything else. Multiplayer support is just a welcome bonus. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    If played correctly SOF 2 makes for good single player, its not like the quake style run into a room with a rocket launcher and kill everything its more along the lines of engage find cover and either advance or hold ground tactically. I didnt enjoy SOF2 the first time around but the second time I really enjoyed it.

    Multiplayer....is....nothing new really but if ur rich and have nothing to do SOF2 isnt a bad Single player game

    Dude, just admit it. The game doesn't really suck. If you think about it, its a pretty good game. It's the community that sucks. I like the game. and every now and then me and my friends network our comps together and have some CS fun. Its great because if anyone is being lame we can chew them out in person. If the following wasn't a bunch of immature crybabies, I would play CS all the time.

    I started up CS about 3 weeks ago. I came into cs_office and was feeling ok, new round. I go up to a window and then a terrorist comes up in it, and i pistol him. He never saw me. Then the round ends. Ok...that was a little short.

    Next round.

    Round starts, All the CT's go to the usual area, I walk out and as soon as I get to the APC I'm dead. I turned it off and never played it again. It's too unrealistic. The terrorists rushing? Its nothing like actual Counter Terrorist operations, which just makes it another deathmatch.

    Beyond the obvious problems with the community, its way too repetitive and boring. Not to mention it doesn't give a true representation of fps skills. Its basically the lamest person who wins. However, If all the lamers have to play something, I'm glad its CS. No complaints here.

    Theres so many games trying to compy counter-strike now is stupid. Theres SOF2, IGI2 & Raven Shield all recently released which are just blatant copies of CS and as a result they all totally suck <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I much prefer it when developers put some thought into their games and produce something new and orgininal, rather than trying to make their game popular by copying another game. NS is an excellent example of this <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    cs is actually fun eh

    after soo many days of NS

    and then you go back to a bit of cs

    darnit its fun killing that guy on the roof of the warehouse in cs_assault

    or that rush of adrenaline when you throw a HE grenade and then a flash grenade inside the Double doors in DE_aztec and take down a couple of terrorists and then follow your team into the terrorists spawn for any left overs

    fun in a internet cafe

    fun for a while @ home
    personnaly i don't give a **** about the community
    i've met some really great people, sure i may have seen the guy with a short name that doesn't have a clan and he's so quiet but he still ends up killing everyone. But thats once in a while. CS is fun, and i definitly can't wait for 1.6 to come out, i'll definitly get my copy of cs back, and smack you guys heads with my ballistic shield

    IGI2 and Raven Shield are *not* CS clones. Raven Shield is from the Rainbow Six series, which is based off of a book from waaay before Half Life. It's a tactical shooter that's focusing on urban-environment close-quarter-combat. Tactical means that some degree of strategy is needed to win.

    And if IGI2 is anything like the original, it's going to require more sneaking around and stealth than anything else.

    I love cs not playing in public servers especially cs_maps and Fy_maps there just deathmatch and stupid imo. Even de maps on public servers are stupid counterterrorist leaving the bombsite and entering terrorist spawn attempting to flank is retarted. I just camp for 15 secounds end up killing 4 people with 1 clip. They dont even flash anymore. The public community of cs is pretty bad. They call people hackers when all you do is walk and listen to the nosiey other team.

    The claners and stuff are cool though. CAL is probably the only reason i still play cs. Its fun trying a new strat in scrimage and acting all stealty entering a bombsite. then latter if it was a good match going to irc and talking to the people in their irc channel.

    Sof2 is fun i guess but the maps are terrible imho. Infiltration needs serious work. I also dont think stealty is as important as it is in CS. Sniping people sure is fun though <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I quit CS awhile ago they stopped adding new stuff and the community+lack of any signifigant change makes for bad experience
