If you get them before they get you.In search of her missing photographer husband, Jane Hoyt (Susan Hayward) arrives in Hong Kong and learns at the U.S. So let loose with a hail of bullets into the underbrush, and you're sure to send them back to Hell.
is really the only problem in the game that can cause you to lose your life. This is a design flaw, and not an intentional characteristic of the enemy A.I. Seems like they are learning their lesson from the first time you killed them. When you go back to look for them, they disappear into the background. Oftentimes they will appear behind you, in a region that you were sure you eliminated of all opposition.
Where things tend to get unfair is when the off-screen enemy A.I. At times you will be unable to return fire due to some invisible barrier, even though you can see them quite clearly. can be an amazing shot and can pick you off from a good distance. But when it puts its mind to it, the A.I. Having an almost excessive amount of firepower at your disposal doesn't hurt either. But thanks to their general lack of combat skills, they can be easily mowed down. They do tend to hunt in packs, and those large numbers can be rather intimidating. But what they lack in intelligence, they make up for in numbers and dirty tactics. They will even run into explosive charges or run right past you. They stand around in the open, making a perfect target. These guys are about as intelligent as the enemy henchmen in the Adam West Batman series. Unfortunately, you'll mostly be fighting henchmen. As you might imagine, these guys should be fairly formidable. Your enemy consists of terrorists, guerillas, drug cartels, corrupt government agents, and fellow mercenaries. You'll embark on a vengeance-inspire tour of duty, dealing out death like a used car salesman handing out business cards. As a soldier of fortune, or assassin for hire, you are double crossed by members of the underworld. Not that there's anything intentional to laugh at mind you. A bit too seriously, which is kind of embarrassing considering that at times we're laughing at it and not with it. So much for realism, but Payback really takes itself seriously. Can you imagine the recoil on a gun like that? Some landmines aren't even that powerful. Some weapons are so powerful they actually cause bodies to launch into the air. Limbs are severed, heads burst, blood spurts, and bodies literally fly. It's so over-the-top that it borders on ridiculous. But instead of an intelligent and engaging game, Payback wallows in self-indulgent brutality. The action is fast-paced, and the control system is responsive and accurate. You could definitely call this game fun, but if you're looking for depth, there's no diving board in the wading pool. But the point isPayback seems to derive its fun in the shallow end of the pool. Okay, that comparison was unfair to Manson. This game is bloody to be sure, but it's also lost its charm imagine Charles Manson with the personality of Kevin Federline. This time around things get a whole lot messier, and I'm not just talking about the excessive blood.
Soldier of fortune 1 ratings series#
Held in high esteem by shooter fans, the Solder of Fortune series was smart, fast-paced, engaging, and extremely violent. It's still a decent shooter, but fans will expect more from the SoF pedigree. Soldier of Fortune: Payback is a step back for the series.
