We could rehash delays and changes that this title has been the past two years, but that would be missing the point; The real news is that Counter-Strike: Condition Zero has finally arrived on store shelves (and steam servers, btw). And after all the delays, our final product has given some new surprises - some delicious, some terrible.For those who do not know (and shame on you, by the way), Counter-Strike is a shooting game very popular on-line connection technology built into the original Half-Life. Although it was not the cup of tea from around the world, players nervous activity worldwide worshiped title. Part of the success of the game was that it was built in one of the best shooters around; Part of it was that it was free to download and
play. Now Valve has released an updated version of the game includes some new offline modes, many
competent robots and almost nothing else. And this is the real problem - if you can see beyond the "nothing" to appreciate new things the game offers.The new offline game modes are designed to facilitate the players to merciless world of online gaming. A series of six challenges graduates takes the player through eighteen total shipments. You must complete each set of three tasks before moving on to the next level. At each new level, the level of challenge increases until the end, even veteran players Counter-Strike will sweat.Each mission requires you to defuse a bomb, hostage rescue, you know, the usual of Counter-Strike. Usually, faces half a dozen terrorists, but can get some support. There are a number of bots here to "buy" to go on a mission. Which cost one point is pretty awesome; Which cost four points is good enough. Each is classified in a
number of areas: the ability, courage and teamwork, and has a preferred weapon. I really like to see an extra option that allows you to purchase special equipment for the team, but there is a good variety of weapons at all levels point, you can create a group that suits you.At the most basic level, you have to win at least two of your opponents to complete a level matches. But things do not end there. Each level also has some particular challenges (facing the difficulty level) to complete. In some levels, you may need to win a round within a
certain period; In other cases you may have to kill some enemies with a specific weapon. These go a long way toward adding a new level of complexity in the game, but some of the challenges that seem kind of arbitrary. It is not as if the challenge shooter will take place in a particularly suitable level for snipers, for example.There are some other problems with these challenges. On the one hand, in missions where you have to rescue hostages, no credit earned by rescuing hostages once all members of the opposing team are dead.
This could be your last race of the hostages and end up having to do the whole damn thing again, because one of your friends killed the last tango. Contrast that with the missions neutralize bombs, which, even if the power of the enemy is destroyed, you can still track the bomb and off to claim victory. It seems like a fair compromise would give credit to the player for each hostage "in tow" when the last enemy falls.It might also add, on the subject of the rescue of hostages, really would be useful to know that the hostages climbing stairs. Although it is fun to watch the turn at the bottom of the stairs, you will not win any game.
