Critic : The Speacialist
<div class="IPBDescription">Quake 3 meets Counter-strike?</div> I know this has nothing to do with kharaa, but I love this community. So sit around and read my review of 'The Speacialist'.
Now...being a huge fan of first person shooters and in my opinion one of the better players, I thought id give my opinion on in my opinion one of the better mods for half-life released.
This game takes the style of <b>The Matrix</b> the speed of <b>Quake 3</b> the action of <b>Action Quake</b> the engine of <b>Half-Life</b> and the weaponry of <b>Counter-Strike</b>. What a powerful powerful set of attributes, I hate to compare stuff when its completely new and originally made, and im damn glad to see some mod makers actually making some of the more classical first person shooter mods. I am really good at this game and its probably because I followed the quake series from quake one and practically any and all other fast paced first person shooters (I am god @ UT2k3 also). If you like fast paced, fast respawning games you will like this...
Less bragging more reviewing? you got it!
<b>No skill loser,lamer</b>
As my freind says, a game like this takes "No Skill", I beg to differ, sure a nice computer and ping helps, but if you want to really be on top you need some form of skill, and it all lies within two simple elements of fast first person shooters. No not accuracy, No not speed, No not cheats(lame-fo's), No not being asian or a clear skinned white boy. It all lies within 'Evasion' and 'Reflexes', and thats something you cant buy in the stores. Evasion is a form of staying safe while reloading, or even just sabatoging people, and takes some feel for the game to even grasp this concept, but with The Speacialist you will start to feel it early (if your like me). Now reflexes is something you get from practice.
<b>Super-Models Are Hot</b>
While that may be true-I was a bit disapointed by the number of models selectable for this mod, but I guess its cool.
<b>Third person? whoah w.t.f cool cheerios?</b>
Third person is cool, but impractical if your going at it hardcore, I use it all the time however. Naturally in third person you have worse aim, but better view (in some situations). So use it only for viewing leverage, trust me, this little tip seperates alot of the good players from the bad, practice it!
<i>The Verdict
Style : 7.5/10
Gameplay : 8.4/10
First Impressions : 7.3/10
Visuals : 7.3/10</i>
Thats all for now...
