i recall reading that it was super prone to overheating, must have just been lies and slander
--- Quote from: Tomcat on November 03, 2013, 04:10:26 PM ---it required ammo conversion, you had to look around the map for secrets in order to actually beat the level (it was incredibly hard to beat some levels without secrets), you had to dodge fireballs and know how to stunlock enemies. you had to have the enemies fight each other. the levels were non linear and you could take several paths to get the angle on monsters you needed to kill.
furthermore, you couldn't just run in the middle of a group of enemies and hide behind a crate to regenerate your health. you had to think about what you were going to do before you did it and what consequences it would bring later on.

It wasn't a "few different hallways to choose from." You're using CoD's corridor-shooter mentality to think about older level design.

I think it was Yuki's firearms myth thread where he said something about the XM8 melting during test stages.

Non-linear progression. It's "off-the-rails" because you aren't forced onto a single, scripted path.

if one of the things you lumnuts tout is how today's mms have better stories than old games then there's a reason that's not true.

damn, all of those ranks, extra game modes, and 70 "different" weapons in call of duty sure made that game better!
