Bad Graphics [Posted on 2003-12-06] Let me start by saying that I'm a loyal Delta Force (DF) player. I've played every one in the series so far. This is the only game in the series that I've regretted purchasing. DF1 was a software-rendered game. It didn't rely on OpenGL (hardware) and other stuff like that. DF2, on the other hand, is the first OpenGL game in the series. It seems very dark and kind of slow. Maybe it works better on some video cards, but it didn't work that well on my TNT2. I'd recommend getting Land Warrior (DF3), which also has hardware support, but none of the issue of DF2. Or, get one of the newer ones in the series. As of the time of this writing, Black Hawk Down (DF5) is what I'm currently playing (and the newest in the series).
Two different Games in one [Posted on 2003-12-23] The first of these games are the single player campaign missions which while fun ranger from easy to really really easy. The enemy A.I is at its best lackluster and at worse totally moronic. To tell you truth I never bothered much with the single player missions. The 2nd game which totally kicks butt and gets you your money's worth is the multplayer part. Anyone who is a fan of Red Faction or Halflife will love this game. On-line it is a total slaughter-fest even though the community has shrank n recent years as people have gone on to either the DF sequals or something else simply to combat the rise in cheating. The other versions of the game did a much better of keeping the cheaters out. Overall-Still all in all I just love this game
I think I just wasted some money [Posted on 2004-07-23] I bought this game at a fairly low price, and when I started playing, I was totally amazed - at the incredibly bad graphics.
The game featured a basic HUD with two annoyingly large bars, placed above and below it. That was the first thing I noticed. Next I saw that the terrain was sort of fuzzy, and my gun wasn't all that impressive either.
"OK...," I said to myself. "Why don't I try walking around and see if this gets any better?" So I did. Guess what? No gun sway! Every stinkin FPS game I've every seen had some sort of movement with the gun (Ok, maybe not Wolfenstein 3d, but still!).
So, anyway, I tried firing the gun - barely any recoil at all. I tried a pistol just to see if the hammer would pull back but it did not.
Anywayz terrible graphics = boring game. Enough said
Delta force 2 [Posted on 2006-03-19] This game features alot of different missions. They can range from "quick missions" to "campaigns". If you ask me this game kicks butt! the only problem is it is 2006. The graphics are out dated, the novaworld servers are down. But if you go back to single player you have probaly over 40 different levels and they can range from gettting a code book to blowing up a convoy to rescuing pows to saving pilots! and those are just quick missions!! I gave it a 4 because its a fun game! it's for 13 and older but i have been playing it since I was 8 and haven't stopped! But I would suggest if you are going to get this game don't, get another novalogic game though.Probably a game like Joint operations combined arms!
Cheater Paradise [Posted on 2007-04-11] The game was fun back in the day, but now-a-days novaworld doesnt give two @*#&s about their old games and just let them run wild; especially Delta Force 1, 2 and 3.
If you want to stay in the delta force series (fun) I'd suggest Black Hawk Down and/or Joint Operations - Typhoon Rising (basically Delta Force 5, but they changed the name).
Black Hawk Down is most similar to DF 1-3 and also has an expansion pack available called Team Sabre. Team Sabre opens up a whole new set of servers that are more focused on forest and urban playing and also unlocks 3 more guns (G36, psg-1 and G3). Lately BHD has been getting less and less Novaworld servers and there is talk stats will be shutting down completely before 2008.
Joint Operations is an extreme makeover of the Team Sabre expansion. The maps are HUGE and nearly everything was made from scratch. Updated graphics, gun models, human models, vehicle models, not to mention drivable boats, helicopters, trucks, buggies, etc.
If your mind is still set on the terrain type of Delta Force 1,2 or 3... Novalogic also came out with Delta Force X-treme. Its the exact same game almost except with updated graphics and drivable vehicles.
Hope this helps... because throwing away money sucks.
