Delta Force Xtreme

2007-09-24
PERHAPS THE BEST 1st Person Shooter EVER. I have hosted Delta Force Land Warrior for over 5 years nightly, and thought nothing could beat it; BUT NovaLogic finally outdid themselves with Delta Force Xtreme, which TRULY LIVES UP TO IT'S NAME. This major sleeper at this price is a Way Cool Find. Poor advertising AND poorly stocked supplies of the game on their part, is the only reason it has not taken off like Hot Cakes. I host DFX every odd numbered night starting around 9:00 PM Pacific. My site is DC's--DM, drop in if you buy this DFX game.

Don't update the game.

Game is great until you update. There is a jeep with a machine gun that you can capture in one of the games (Snow Fox) and use it to assist in playing the game. With the update the jeep is no longer available and when you shoot the 2 people in it the jeep blows up. Also with the update it takes more bazooka hits to knock out a tank (4 vs the original #3). The update didn't improve anything and I recommend against it. The game is fun though.

1st person shooter

DF Xtreme is an excellent 1st person shooter game. Nothing real fancy about the game's graphics though, a fairly basic graphics card is all you need. That doesn't mean that the game isn't FUN! LOTS of action, both in single play and especially multiplayer mode. Good selction of weapons as well as map editing for making your own scenarios.

Disappointing

Concidering this game is an istallment of the great Delta Force series, Xtreme was a disappointing experiense. It does not carry the great selection of weapons and characters like it's predecessors, and the missions are rather boring. If you like Delta Force games, and want to keep liking them, STAY CLEAR of Delta Force Xtreme. It does not deserve to be compared to earlier Delta Force games.

Still the Best

Novalogic's DFX is very good. They need to come out with a version DFX2 and fix a few glitches, and add the medical kit to it. But for FPS contemporary military enjoyment... this rocks. Great graphics.

The Mission Editor is easy to use and makes this game timeless, like all of the previous Delta Force games from NovaLogic.

This is a revamp from novalogic of Deltaforce, but with updated graphics and the cool drivable/flyable vehicles from Joint operations. However there are some very backwards steps as well. The player classes are gone and there is a very limited weapons choice compared to previous DF releases. You can no longer select what your soldier looks like either. Also snipers beware = novalogic have dumbed down the sniper rifles so there is no more use of bullet drop, or ranging the scope. Also crosshairs no longer expand or contract with your movement or stance, each weapon has a set bullet spread and thats it. this is really more of an arcade Joint operations than a whole new tactical edge in the series. Oh and for the reviewer who said there is no extra ammo? pick up a blue box (marked on your map) its FULL of ammo. red boxes give health.

Now the sinlge player mode is somewhat limited - the enemy AI is awful as is their aim. The entire enemy tactic is to either charge in a straight line at you, or stand in the open and blaze away at you. However this is forgivable as the real idea behind the single player is to get used to the weapons and vehicles for where this game really shines: Multiplayer.

With up to 32 players on novaworld, this game is a frantic rush of online lunacy. Grab a gun and go, switch to rockets and let the fragfest commence. With all the extra maps available and some great online communities this is where DFE really rocks. With 5 game types there is good and challenging variety, and the use of vehicles and helicopters adds to the fun. Again those of us who are decent snipers will hate the basic any n00b can use it sniper rifles, but if you are new to online FPS then you will find this game a lot more easier to get to grips with than the other DF releases from novalogic. Also beware that graphics can be glitchy in the extreme (even with all settings on low) on full servers and custom maps.

My 5 stars for fun relates to online play, but 3 stars overall becasue of the limitations - give us back the weapons and classes novalogic!

Is there a mission editor included with this game?

I can't tell you how much fun this game is. The graphics are great and the realism is also top notch. I play on the interent with others from around the world and just have a great time with it. I would recommend this to anyone who likes first person shooter games!

Disappointing

I have been a Delta Force Fan from the First Delta Force 1 game. I found this to be a let down, although there was a slight feeling of nostalgia for about the first 5 seconds of each game. Even after so many years there are game flaws (enemy soldiers that fire through walls - first aid boxes marked on the overview head up display but don't appear in person). I found the game extremely easy too and not in the least bit challenging.... Even the mulitplayer games have very few people on it's servers (you cant even snipe in games where people are using automatic weapons on the Nova games !!!) If I had known how bad this game was I would have avoided it and dusted off my old copy of DF1, it might be dated but it is far more exciting and playable !!!
