I never see this board discuss this amazing game

Discussion spurred up a couple years ago when it got an unofficial VR port.

welp I just think this game deserves as much recognition as the other pc classics from this era. It has a modern port that runs amazing on modern machines too

Hate games about killing good guys. Works for hentai games with rape and all but just violence alone feels empty and bad.

The versions on GOG & Steam already run flawless on modern machines. It's not like the game is a forgotten inaccessible piece of jank unlike some titles.

That's because most anons were filtered by the first sneaking mission.

you rarely see masterpieces discussed here because there's nothing to bitch about. RE4, Snake Eater, Chrono Trigger etc don't come up often either. btw what happened to STALKER being the official favorite game of /v/? up until tourism it was the only game you were allowed to like in this shithole and now it never comes up either.

It's pretty funny how there's all this build up to this resurrection of an ancient German warlord, and then you can kill him by triggering some rubble to fall on him. I wish the Heinrich boss fight would've had 3 Super Soldiers fighting alongside him, though I understand story-wise how they were going all-in on the occult angle by that point.

I love RTCW's movement and how much control it gives you over the combat.

You can strafejump at will, and when done horizontally relative to enemies, it makes you much harder to be hit. It's also effective for breaking line of sight when you're caught in the open, overwhelmed by an enemy presence. Sprinting makes you harder to hit, but you have a limited amount of stamina, so it's best conserved for when the situation necessitates it. Because there's no penalty for sprinting (or strafejumping) other than your stamina bar lowering, using it in combat situations to close in on enemies and make up for the inaccuracy of your automatics is an invaluable strategy, especially in 1-on-1 encounters. Crouching makes the crosshair bloom (cone of fire) much tighter, giving you instant increased accuracy with your SMGs at medium range whenever you duck. Crouching while shooting is an essential gameplay strategy in your toolbox, especially when facing multiple enemies or an especially tanky one where it would be wiser to whittle them down while keeping a safe distance. It also makes the crosshair pulsing less annoying, which is why the crosshair pulses in the first place, to indicate how accurate your weapon will be depending on different factors. Walking slowly while holding down caps lock allows you to be completely quiet even when opening doors, and lets you stay scoped in with your Mauser and FG-42 while moving. There's even a lean mechanic that lets you scope out a place, watch patrol routes for stealth strategy, or simply line up a headshot on someone before you enter their field of view. There's so much more thought going into these mechanics than meets the eye, with multiple ways to tackle different enemy encounters on the fly - something that the game's weapon arsenal, enemy placement, and level designs compliment quite well. It deserves its spot among the classics of its era.

The PS2 version letting you upgrade your abilities after finding gold is a neat touch. I forget if it's tied to just finding the secret itself or the gold, but it's a nice way to reward exploration like in Wolf 09.

I like how Brutal Wolfenstein re-uses the bone cracking sound effect for headshots, purely for the fun factor.

It should have done something crazy, like a time travel last act where you are fighting a four way of undead/mutants vs nazis vs Heinrich.

that would of been cool than just shooting him the moment he got his ass resurrected


Instead when he came back the entire region should of become hell on earth as the ground splits apart with the undead crawling out in the hundreds and attacking the nazis in a full wage war all the while allies are bombing the area and just you are all stuck in the middle of it trying to unfuck this mess as you fight your way through to get to him, hell maybe even a uneasy alliance with wehrmacht due to the occult fucking everything up and would rather stay among the living then get killed by the sudden arrival of undead than deal with you

The introduction the player has to the Lopers is so cool with how it breaks through its containment and chases you up the stairs. You're desperately backpedaling down a long corridor, shooting back as it jumps toward you, mercifully hitting the low ceiling just enough to not totally overwhelm you, but still gaining plenty of ground to make you panic. All worth it for the minigun.

The motion comic shown off prior to Wolf 09's release makes the final boss fight seem way more engaging than it really was lol

Back in college in 2002 my roommate and I used to put on the Gladiator soundtrack and do 1v1 sniper battles, first kill wins. We would autistically crawl around the map for 45 minutes until one of us would finally find the other and get a clear shot. Those were the good old days.

64-player pubs were a great thrill. I remember when the Market Garden map update happened and everyone was playing it, having a good time for hours on end. That really sticks out in my mind for some reason, wish I could remember the server or anyone that was on it.
