Shattered Horizon

This area is to discuss FPS (First Person Shooters), Strategy and Tactical based games that don't always involve 3D space combat (ex: Fallout, Wasteland, Mass Effect, X-Com, Deus Ex, Halo, ect...)

From what I've read, it seems doing this is comparable to taking IE6 and replacing large pieces of it with Firefox 3.6...I'll just pick it up from a digital bargain bin when XP is on the level 95 is now.

I got this on Steam a day or so ago for £6.99. Only playing single player against bots at the moment as I don't know anyone else who has it.I got the game for research reasons more than anything else as I have an idea to build something along the same lines - but based on the moon (low gravity) rather than in space (zero gravity). Anyway, played a few games, and it is an interesting concept - basically putting CoD in space, it works as a game, but I think it needs more... though not sure exactly what... One aspect I think is really great is the true 3D nature of the game maps - it literally does add an extra dimension to the usual FPS experience.

I picked this game up in a indie bundle type purchase a few months ago and just haven't loaded it up yet. Usually time gets in my way but gameplay looks to be fun.

I played this game a lot back in the days. I enjoyed it a lot, but the eventually low player count made the game less and less fun. It shined on 10v10 or more.

I think the only solo type play is with bots? It's a shame they never created a solo campaign.

They wanted to do some more expansions, but the sales were quite mediocre. Many people complained about there being just one single weapon. I rather considered it one of the good points of this game. It was a very realistic, multifunctional weapon. Some more video:  Low resolution due to crappy pc for recording i had during the time for this game :P It was before my intel i5 2500K build.
