You have good AI to team up with you and they are way better than Call of Duty's AI where they always make you go first. The ones in Q4 act more like real humans and some times will go in front of you and start kicking ass. The call of duty's AI are next to useless in comparison.
I love the voice acting.
-The level designs were amazing, everything is so detailed. The atmosphere was nicely created from their skilled level and texture designers.
-Some of the cut scenes(or level intros) were absoulutly awesome , and it ain't CGI. There is a cut scene after you get captured that you will say WOW, or holy shit while watching it, one of the coolest/nastiest cutscenes I've ever seen!!!
-Very good weapon balance, there was a situation for every single weapon, so it was very fun.
-no more monster behind the closet type of bullcrap doom3 always tries to pull to scare you. There are very few in Q4.
-The frame rates were as good as DOOM3's as I recall even tho q4 has more monsters to fight on average.
-Good enemy Ai, the enemy tactical units were fun to fight with.
-Boss fights were more creative than previous DOOM, and quake games. You sometimes can't just kill a boss by peppering him with bullets. The bosses looked very good or frightening.
-There were many "set" fire fights that were pretty awesome. I wish they had made a feature to re-play those set fire fights and boss fights.

-The level names were once again pretty unoriginal. "Recomposition Center", "Waste Disposal Center", "Data Terminal", wtf, it's almost funny.
-Load times were horrific. 3 minutes to load, but luckily, if you do a quick load via f9, it loads in a few seconds. f5 is to quick save. Is not documented or in the controls menu.

My experience in this game is less than one week, but i finished the game, not sure why FiringSquad makes us choose the amount of experience we have with this game. Who the fck would play this game for 3 years then write a review on a 3 year old game? Not many.
This is what I've expected from a Quake game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's Quake 2 squared. |
