Mission: Impossible - New Dawn When Major Sean Dickens’ F-15 crashes over Utah, everything looks like an accident. However, as the wreck is recovered, Dickens is gone, and with him the F-15’s deadly cargo: a new generation warhead. Ethan Hunt’s mission is clear: the warhead has to be recovered before Dickens is able to sell it, and Dickens, along with the possible buyer, a former Russian general, with unknown intentions, have to be eliminated. However, all too soon Hunt realizes that things aren’t as they seem, and suddenly finds himself right in the line of fire. In his quest to gain answers, Hunt hits upon a conspiracy that puts doubts upon the trustworthiness of his own ranks, and change everything he believed in. He has nothing to rely on. And nobody left to trust. But whoever is trying to deceive him – they have obviously forgotten with whom they have to deal… Releasedate: Out now!!! Check our Website to download!!!
A decent mod, far better than half the crap that gets posted on here anyways. While the story is a convoluted mess of cliched action movie plot twists and full of the stereotypical "evil russian general" villains, the gameplay is solid.
The environments are well designed and tons of fun to shoot people in. They are varied, ranging from a hotel to a military base to a ship. Though the weapons are still your standard Max Payne 2 weapons only with different skins, you'll still have loads of fun. They managed to add in dual MP5ks with gun katas, but of course the gun kata mechanism is nowhere near as fluid as the Hall of Mirrors mod. I can't even pull off half the moves, so it's not even worth it. The set pieces the mod has are great, you really do get the sense you're in an action movie.
If there's one thing this mod got right for sure is the style. In the cutscenes, you'll get recreated parts of Mission Impossible 2 with some intense explosions combined with the music from MI2. I never thought just watching explosions could be so fun in this dated game engine.
By far one of the worst aspects of this mod is the voice acting. The actor of Ethan Hunt sounds like a whinny 16 year old. His villainous counterparts are bearable to listen to, however still sound forced. Anyone can do a bad Russian accent.... Even worse is the fact that this mod has some audio bugs, meaning even when you SKIP cut scenes, you STILL hear the stupid audio going on as you play for a couple of minutes. Kind of annoying seeing as though I was SKIPPING for a reason. Ethan's Aussie friend is also irritating as balls to listen to.
As said before, the story is just ***. Pure and simple. A 12 year old probably wrote it after seeing too many James Bond films. Nothing makes any sense and you aren't given much reason to GIVE a rat's *** about the utterly boring and one dimensional characters.
In conclusion, this mod is definitely worth playing. Just don't expect a gripping story or much substance.
