Advent Rising: Review

Back in 2003, we learned about the beginning of action development Advent Rising. Very promising action, by the way. After reading countless roar, many gamers began to be stored in the piggy bank of the coins, which were then ready to jump into the cashier to the seller of computer games. And not in vain saved up, I will be honest. The game is worthy of money spent.

The first show of the finished project was made at E3 in 2004. No, do not think that the project is already so outdated, it was just shown on the Xbox platform. Then it was an unpleasant sight. Kutsay graphics, terrible management. After that, it was decided to work a little on the project so that when transferring to PC there were as few flaws as possible. But without them, nevertheless, it was not done.

Far, far in the Galaxy ..
Now, with such words and jokes, you are unlikely to attract a huge crowd of gamers. Now everyone requires a wonderful plot so that it is not inferior to the famous Mexican series in intrigue and American action militants. Thanks to Orson Scott Card (he wrote all the dialogs for the game), we will get both. Therefore, there is no need to worry about the storyline. The playing atmosphere surpasses all kinds of there Chronicles of Riddik and other similar projects. It is impossible to break away from the game! She seems to attract you like a magnet!

So, in the distant, predicted future, people learned to travel through an immense galaxy and "fill" deserted planets with their race. History shows us how two unfamiliar life forms were recorded on one planet at once. Some of them are very friendly aliens who are ready to help people than they can. By the way, they formed from all the same people, but follow other principles in life, chose another religion and t.D. The other race does not want to share the good good, and also wants to increase it. Their main goal is the extermination of humanity.

The main character – Gideon Payne – A simple pilot, equipped with the most ordinary weapons, will plow the spaces of space with friends in search of adventure. I did not have to wait long, since the adventures themselves found them. Now, once a beautiful young man, you will not have to sit in a pilot’s cabin, but fight with evil. Trite, but without unnecessary piles on the gameplay.

Gideon Payne.
Our ward has a solid arsenal. Here you have the ability to use 11 types of weapons, and hand-to-hand combat, use of grenades, as well as 6 different super-gunners. But his most important weapon is the SLO-MO mode, exactly the same as in the immortal Max Payne (Even the surnames are similar!). We click on the treasured key and, op-la, we get a slow mode. It is harder for us to get into us in this very mode, on the contrary, it’s easier for us. During the next inhibited jump, I personally managed to think about the eternal. It is worth noting that the SLO-Mo mode will not immediately appear at the Gideon, but gradually, with the development of the plot.

The article already mentioned that "parent" the game was Xbox, so there is no need to wait for convenient management. The game is clearly not friends with the keyboard and mouse, so I advise you to get at least a cheap gamepad, for more convenience. Otherwise, reap you on "download" will have to be more often.

"Beauty" those worlds.
The transition from Xbox to PC is a serious matter. In addition to management, another one, no less important Betrebels Casino revisione in games, is also strongly suffered. Glyphx Inc., To be honest, I did a good job on it "transition". The frequency of personnel is on top, even with a large accumulation of monsters. But the visual effects themselves are still medium. Do not wait for any overwhelming new achievements here, do not Far Cry This is for you. Testing the game, I managed to notice such a special for Advent Rising Gluck: with an increase in resolution, the quality of textures, for some reason, on the contrary, worsens. Fun, true?

When passing the game, several annoying bugs were noticed. For example, some levels were simply hanged, and that’s it. The artificial idiot does not always accompany the game, but at times. Once – "smart" computer, second – "silly". Such jumps are somewhat annoying.
At the time of writing a review (August 10), the developers did not manage to release any patches and patches that could correct errors in the game. But we will wait and hope for their appearance.

Epic sound.
Sound for Advent Rising was selected with particular love, as for a movie. To record music, an orchestra of 70 musical instruments was used, as well as a choir. She (music) skillfully adapts to the actions that occur on the screen, and is always pleasant.
The votes of the actors and special effects are at the same high level. For happy owners 5.1 system opens a really full world. Each sound is a small masterpiece. Beauty…

Final comments.
I said, and I will say that Advent Ringing is a great example of a good action. Somewhere slightly clumsy, because of the same Xbox, somewhere a little unfinished. But in general, we got a really good game, for which you can spend not evening, and not two. It’s worth it.

Results:
– Excellent plot, dialogs, menu and all-all-all.
– Special effects and backgrounds are pleasant, but the past Xbox has ruined everything.
– Music, sounds, voices – excellent quality.
– Gameplay: in general, not bad, but the SLO-Mo mode in other games was implemented much better.
