The Unknown Ghosts

Online Multiplayer - 1st Impressions


Recommended Posts

I decided last night to try out Raven Shield on Internet Multiplayer, there seems to be a large number of servers out there, and the built in game browser doesn't seem too bad. Yuo can add favorites for servers only, but cant easily search for players. (Which would be useful to find your buds.)

 

I played on the =TSF= Public Server & enjoyed the few games that I had, as the maps are small & there was no respawns, each round can be pretty quick, one well aimed frag & the opposition are toast.

 

I did actually get a TK - naughty me - and there is a cool feature that the person you TK'd gets the option to make you sit out the next game, which the person I TK'd took advantage of & I had to observe. (lol)

 

I even found our old mate zoo.froggy (troggers) playing, which was fun.

 

I think this is gonna be a fun multiplayer game, but seems limited with only 16 players total. Although this is no bad thing as the maps are pretty small compared to GR.

 

Anyway. once my old PC is fixed up & running, I'm gonna stick up a dedicated server for Raven Shield. Watch this space.

I have to say I've tried the demo this week in both single and multiplayer. I enjoy the diversity of secondary weapons such as flashbangs and things like that. However the game does not play as smoothly as GR. I still believe that GR is about the top of the line in first person shooters.

my first impression of multiplayer? I saw lots of servers to join. yummmy yum, But I cant join in because of firewall issues. Not that I dont want to open ports. I just think some of the ports are better left closed. :angry:

 

This game on single player rocks. No way GR can match in terms of cqb and dynamic entry because the way the level is created. GR is more open spaced. In Raven shield u fight in build up areas. I really like the mission where u have to disable bombs in a warehouse docks. Its more realistic than the docks that we play in GR. U can feel it. :ph34r:

My 1st impressions were just like your guys. It was to wierd feeling, GR ownz this, move to slowly, etc....

 

But then I really started to play and got to a point where I knew the maps, was a pretty decent shot, picked some favorite weapons, and started to do well against other people. Now I really enjoy it, not as much as GR, but its a good game. If I only had enough time for both :(
