Strike Force

Mod review

many weapons (my fav are the snipers), many and good maps, okay bots. I personally like the movement and gunfire alot more in this than in counter strike, feels more like a police squad that raids an area (the way you move from point to point with your team).

The only thing I really miss in this mod is some of the gameplay types of UT. Mainly there's no ctf, even though it would be a bit weird I think it would have been very fun too.

Unreal4Ever

Mod review

Just recently I actually just played this mod for the first time, and it is great fun! Lots of weapons, my only complaint is that weapon textures look very low reso (alot more outdated than the vanilla weapons), though that is understandable cause of the huge number of weapons in the mod.

I also really like that you can choose which weapons are spawned so you can choose and create themes matching the themes of maps.

The weapons themselves are great fun and just feel good.

Is Alive

Mod review

Makes the game alot harder which is both good and bad. Good as in there are new unique and magic monsters with e.g. aura's which are a challenge. Bad as in some bosses like Blood Raven are quite annoying to fight against cause they teleport you random away on each hit (annoying for melee builds). Or for example killing a boss/unique monsters kills you instantly (on normal) when you are near it (the Count, deals >200 damage when you are near her and kill her on normal difficulty! == instant death).

The other major feature is an expanded crafting system which allows e.g. crafting rare weapons/armors through crafting points you can collect from monsters. But the crafting points can also be used to do optional quests which involve finding ingredients to complete them (which are found on the unique/strong monsters). Good system but finding ingredients require alot grinding cause their drop chance is very small. If you love grinding, you will love the optional quests. If you don't love grinding, luckily you can still use the crafting points for the before mentioned crafting of e.g. rare weapons/armors, which requires less grinding and also rewards nicely. Finally about the crafting system, there are new gemwords which make gems finally usefull and are a nice touch.

Besides that it fixes some skill bugs and some good skill balances which is good. There is also a shared stash now through plug-y which is always welcome and really fun.

This seems to run on an other patch (1.10?), no respec, hirelings don't matching your character level when you hire them etc.

Overal great mod that adds more challenge, expands the crafting system and has some annoyances but it gets better and better.

Dungeon Siege

Game review

Fun to hack your way through hordes of enemies with a squad of ~eight guys :) . Great party management, lots of spells, lots of different spell types and one of the best multiplayer open maps if you have the mod Legends of Utrae installed and the mod Dungeon Siege Revived installed. If you are a summoner guy, try the unlimited summonings mod (even more fun than it sounds).

Diablo 2 Immortal

Mod review

Is it cool that you can combo diablo 2 classes, creates many new strategies. The summonings (mainly skeletons) are to few/weak though (no ~12 skeletons like in Diablo 2, more like ~4). Understandble cause of the 9 mastery limit in the game, I still miss the Druid class.

C&C: Reloaded

Mod review

It does perfectly what is it supposed to do (mixing red alert 2 and tiberian sun races). Even if you only want to play with the tiberian sun races, I still recommend trying this mod for the new options of red alert 2 (choosing starting positions etc.) and the new maps. The new way of building turrets for GDI is also an improvement.

I would give this a 10 if the forgotten race is added.
