Urban Chaos: Riot Response

Urban Chaos: Riot Response
Gang hockey masked clogged streets city. Metropolis in flames, firefighters do not have time to put out fires, and doctors - to help the wounded. Who will stop the rampant crime? Of course, only a special unit T-Zero and personally agent Nick Mason!

Leapfrog around title

Startling number one - game proved first person shooter. As you possibly remember first Urban Chaos was one blood with Tomb Raider, overlooking polygonal tyl main heroine (and occasionally - hero). In Riot Response we observe horrors bandit lawlessness directly eyes Mr Mason. Sensations from such "Leap - as if Dark Messiah of Might and Magic suddenly became called Prince of Persia 4. Case that working titles Urban Chaos: Riot Response were Zero Tolerance and Roll Call, however then revealed that these Heading already occupied other games. Had Eidos seize old proved headline. Inability call game - alarming omen however drawback fudge suddenly turned dignity.

In multiuser mode playable both spetsnaz and beyond bandits. But only network - together on one console fail. Nevertheless my physical education prompts that fireman termoochki nowhere. Abundance hot objects must interfere.

Old-old tale

Startling number two: Urban Chaos: Riot Response - project unusual retro stylistics. Retro here absolutely recent: end eighties - beginning nineties. Whereas times were eerie popular arcade beat'em up with plots "good guys against gangs" (not confused with current "street gangs fighting between themselves"). Time Final Fight, Double Dragon and Renegade. Mike Haggar easily acknowledged would Nike Mason native granddaughter let he and gazes at world another angle and kulaks prefers firearm. Although just look how he bludgeoning ruffians his ballistic shield! Headshot Committed in such manner commented word Brutal, and we with him fully agree.

Clearance savers between missions only strengthens impression that game - newcomer from eighties. Castors disguised under newscasts where depicts all new outrages organized criminal city and being investigated who these he organized - already not himself whether mayor? Important detail: diktorsha seventh channel Lani York - no not 3D-model but a real, sorry aunt. Reportings "with places" too represent real videotaping - such news ceremony can scare some anglophone old lady living wall.

If the enemy is too long to burn a shocker, he was toasted, and arrest you, of course, will not count Pogoreltsev hauling fire. For it is not a master's business.

In the smoke on the rails, but not the engine?

From the description of the merits of the game go to the story of the actual gameplay. Before us - an ordinary "rail" shooter. The way of our hero, even tortuous, rarely branched. That the road seemed more complicated, we often have to walk in darkness or smoke, as well as perform basic actions, like "click on the button - the door and opened." Add diversity episodes where Mason give populyat gun from a helicopter, as well as scenes of hostage-taking - they need to seize the moment when the gunman leans out of his victim.

Sometimes a hero comes to the aid of police, firefighters or medics. First provide fire support, the second work "live keys, clearing the rubble, knocking doors and extinguishing small fires. That fire you podkidyvayut device called the Thermal Breather. All right, it's night-vision goggles ... combined with gas masks. Issuance of this devaysa confined to a single mission with a nonlinear passage - it needs to find a burning building three of the victims. Smoldering house, incidentally, looks good, almost like "hell" levels of Silent Hill 3. The very same "THERMOGAS" is certainly a useful gizmo when you get used to it, at first come across the same wall, and clumsily fall into the hole between the floors.

Impenetrable shield, but with time traces of bullets and blood make it completely opaque. Female physicians (below left) can improve health hero. In addition, one of them clumsily trying to Mason quadrille.
There are also other desired combination: a gun + flashlight dream player in Doom 3. Unfortunately, the lamp can be used not with all kinds of weapons, but Urban Chaos: Riot Resistance and the gun is not bad. List of Scheduled trunks, although updated during the passage of new missions, rather modest, and Nick, willy-nilly to withdraw cold, missile and fire at the villains. Thus, in the hands of the commando appeared butcher knives, Molotov cocktails, circular saw and nail bomb. Not to forget the normal shocker, lets you take the offender dead. Painfully lacking buttons for the fierce cries of "Everybody lie down, hands behind his head ... children ... mother ... the leg! "Hockey players-losers (as well as train drivers and firemen) on the foul was worth - if developers are hung up on the screen count bad words, by the end of each mission, it would be a four-digit number. It's nice that bastards know our hero by name and not just yell "factor yu!", And "facts Yu, Mei-sen!". Not to recall the infinite «Where are you, mar-shal?» Of Outlaws. Design and gameplay Urban Chaos: Riot Resistance evoke the most unusual comparison - the enemies are, for example, like the hunters from Manhunt, and the interaction with the services of rescue something vaguely reminiscent of action-an offshoot of a strategic series Emergency.But the mess from all this received very appetizing, though perhaps not very FINE. At least, certainly not extruded semi-finished product.

Urban Chaos: Riot Response Medals and wreaths
Urban Chaos: Riot Response
The game operates a multi-faceted system of awards. For each mission you can get half a dozen medals: for otstrelennye head for offenders to live, for the passage without checkpoints, as well as for gathering evidence - bandit masks. Special masks, the expansion in the nooks levels - make simple thugs to "show face" is useless. Earned medals for you to receive upgrades of weapons - such as an additional store to the gun or a lighter board with increased stopping power.

You can still try to capture alive the leader - this will open an additional mission, which, in turn, will get their hands on new models of weapons. Only in the dark, peering from behind a corner, Ataman difficult to distinguish from an ordinary thief. However, if they shoot a reptile, you are scolded, but the mission count.

Here you can also play a very pompous. If, with your connivance key character dies, you will see something like a brief obituary: "Oh no, this nurse was younger than me, and already the mother of two children!"
