the details Soldier of Fortune claims to have
a great AI (artifficial intelligence) system, much better than anything on the
market. Unfortunately this is not true, infact the AI is far from great. A nice
example: Having wiped away his mate an enemy is standing next to me without doing
*anything*..nice knifing.

"secrets" are simple and easy to solve. Running around the corner and
activating a switch is a common task. One thing that keeps Soldier of Fortune
from being great are the cheesy cutscenes and the horrible dialogues, your "partner"
Hawk shows up here and there on the missions to to give you updated mission information
or open a door. Somehow, Hawk always finds the easy way in and out. This and other
logical glitches are annoying and unnecessary. A thing Raven could have prevented..
Gimme Guns! In the beginning
of each episode you’re able to equip yourself with available armory and inventory
items. There are 12 weapons and 7 items in Soldier of Fortune. The weapon models
are pathetically simple. Compared to other games they are edgy, clumsy and just
ugly. The models are too wide compared to the hand or even to themselves. I have
no idea what Raven was up to when making the models. Some guns have primary and
secondary fire such as the heavy machine gun that fires grenades on secondary.
Here's
a list of the weapons: - Combat Knife
Just
a bisic combat knife, can be thrown too
- 9mm
Pistol (Black Panther)
Your basic pistol -
.44 Pistol (Silver Talon)
Pretty powerful handgun.
- Shotgun (Berserker)
Standard
shotgun. Firing .12 gauge buckshot - Submachine
Gun (Raptor)
Small SMG. Rapid fire - Silenced
SMG (Bulldog)
Silenced UZI. Slightly less powerful than the SMG - Heavy
Machine Gun (M-75 Guardian)
Heavy Gun with attached
phosphorus grenade launcher - Sniper Rifle
(Eagle Eye)
Uhm... what can I say - M202A2
"Flash" Rocket Launcher
The "BFG". Do not use in closer quarters
combat - M343D Flamegun
Great
for close quartesrs - H-24 Slugthrower (Heavy
Hitter)
Powerful weapon with attached greande
launcher - Microwave Pulse Gun (MPG)
This
will cook your enemy's flesh

balance is pretty good
although th heavy machine gun is almost unbeatable. Soldier of Fortune features
a great variety of different skins. Most of them were done pretty nicely and the
GHOUL system does a great job animating them. Raven hired the Motion Capture specialists
from House of Moves. Each player model has over 200 animations so movement looks
pretty realistic. A really annoying thing is that grenades are
extremely difficult to throw. It's virtually impossible to toss a grenade into
a room.
