Codename: Outbreak is an action game in first and third person has some redeeming qualities beyond a handful of notable options originally eventually become news. Formerly known as poison, the game has been in development for some time at GSC Game World, the creator of the Cossacks: European Wars, and perhaps it would be better received if it had been released earlier. But as it is, Codename: Outbreak not compare with the current generation of similar games.The game takes place on Earth in the not too distant future. A meteor shower happens splashed planet with a mysterious alien life form, on leaving the egg is connected to the back of the neck of the people and get their control. If this sounds like the plot of all the cheesy Hollywood movies on mysterious extraterrestrial life forms, this is because it is more or less. You assume the role of leader of a small group of military operations have taken on the task of cleaning this infection. The plot progresses through inspired scenes involving little more than a floating chamber that filters
around the characters as they receive the report of the mission, although there are two high quality prerendered scenes playing at the beginning and end of the game, respectively.Before jumping into each mission, you can choose to play as two of the original six operation, each of which has different qualities characteristics such as speed, reaction time, vigor and maximum health. You can even equip your party with one of the many armor. They have an additional effect on the physical characteristics generally because each suit will affect your line speed and has various bonus to protect against different types of weapons. However, in practice, it is very difficult to see any real difference between any of the characteristics of armor or soldier. Between each mission you can choose the types of weapons that your two characters to be transferred to the field. It is interesting to note that while there are eight types of weapons in the game - including sniper rifles, laser, and shotguns - there are only a handful of people to select weapons. In what is probably the first of its kind, Codename: Outbreak different weapons actually share the same 3D model, but have a rotating drum to accommodate different ammunition. Thus a weapon which may have the capability of a shotgun, a machine gun and a sniper rifle, while another will have a grenade launcher, a shotgun and a flare dispenser. It is a new idea, but it's hard to believe, since it is difficult to imagine a single weapon that can be used, for
example, as a layer of mine and a laser. Moreover, the fact that many of the arms overlap in some of the features will probably leave a little confused.There are some levels of dozens of single player in the game, although you can play either during the day or evening, and all include standard conventions of action in first person, like killing all one pulse and finding the right key to open the door to the right. In fact, at one point, the mission report even says that a certain set of "doors securely closed, and the keys are probably in security hands." There are some elements of stealth involved in some missions, including missions at night, but his teammates always seem to go in guns blazing, blowing any measure of surprise that was the enemy. the next battle is nothing special and often lead to enemies standing face to face with you and your partner, guns blazing . Sometimes these soldiers running back and forth along a straight line in an effort shallow cover looking, but more often than not, will resort to focus support on site. Similarly, the search for ways of teammates is a joke, especially indoors, where you always get stuck in a doorframe or in a corner.
Sometimes the only way to overcome these problems is to change the players and perform maneuvers exploration rotated 90 degrees on her own.This flush mediocre can also be found in other characteristics of the epidemic. game voice acting flirts with being completely evil. All characters in the game, soldiers in information consultants continually update their objectives in each mission, talking in full drab and not pay attention to the punctuation at all. Most other sound effects in this game are largely forgotten and - the effects of the weapon have no visceral blow for them, and the environmental impact are scarce. The images are not more impressive, either. The characters made of a small number of polygons, and animations, while common, is nothing special. Moreover, the environments themselves are quite spacious, and, interestingly, the trees are
particularly good. Unfortunately, everything else is made of clay textures whose seams are easily distinguished. There are also some serious mapping MIP problems that are immediately obvious - you can see the exact point on the horizon where textures ranging from very diffuse not so diffuse.About the best that can be said about Codename: Outbreak is that it comes with a suggested retail price which is lower than most new games. Features four multiplayer options that allow up to 16 players compete at once, and one of these options is a cooperative mode, a feature that most first-person shooters should adopt. The game has a built in game server, although no one could find the game browser. And despite its low price, the best shooters such as Serious Sam: The first meeting (which also play co-op) can be had for less. Apart from a few choices innovation, Codename: Outbreak is a first-person shooter game inspiration really did not think of too similar games out on the market.
