I grabbed it as soon as the files were up, it's good fun and slighty differnt to the current big shooters. I noticed the lack of crosshair and ability to jump but they grew on me very fast, for a start you you have to learn to aim better making you generally more accurate, and aslo you dont get the boucing idiots like in all the top FPS games, which is nice . It's just all about fast reactions, accuracy and nice simple gampley.

Its never going to be like Goldeneye on the N64 but it's a pretty fun and it can only improve ...

its a pretty good mod, very well made, but it doesnt have much of that goldeneye feel IMO. i bet it just needs some more weapons and maps, then itl feel like home. :P

Been playing it for a few days, graphics are slick ad gameplay does remind me of the goold ol' 64 days. It does need a bit more additions and tweaks before it gains most of that 64 feel, though.

Kirsten's preview/review doesn't do the game justice, well, the screenshots anyway. I think the screenshots should have been taken at a much higher resolution with AA and AF enabled to show its true potential - those screenies would put me off the game if i hadn't already played it.

The game wins so far, but you can tell it's an Alpha. I can't wait till we get to play the first official release. Hopefully the crosshair will show up by then, so I don't have to draw one on my screen.

And mines. We need mines.

Some servers have crosshair and jump enabled. I prefer both off TBH, just makes the gameplay a little bit more interesting.



All the people on servers i've been on who were moaning about the lack of crosshair just had a bad aim already

N64 goldeneye had aim assist, so it didnt need crosshairs. aim assist made that game 100 times easier, and so now that there is no aim assist or crosshairs makes it harder for most people.

dosen't need a cross hair all the time, just a button to go into a kind of aim mode like the n64 version had, there should be some movement penalty for this otherwise people will aim all the time.


as for jump, things have moved on, it now feels unatrual not to have jump. Perhapse a toned down jump? small hops not css style leaping?
