Operation Na Pali Released

finally, a reason to play UT

Sweet....too bad I'm on dialup. Guess I'll have to wait until August to play this.

Has anyone tried this mod yet? I've been looking forward to it for a while--I'm one of the few that enjoyed Unreal's single player game.

I've played a bit of it, maybe 4 or 5 levels into it. There's a voice over actor that sort of narrated your characters part, and he's really bad. Sounds like a mod maker trying to sound tough, it's kind of laughable really, but other than that it's really good. The levels are good so far. Standard Unreal fare, the story is told through translator messages, the big difference between Unreal and Op. Na Pali is that for one, you're playing with the UT weapons, although I think this is configurable since the mod makes use of the Old School mutator, and you also have some armed Nali tag-alongs that respond to "follow (and attack)" and "wait." They keep getting stuck behind geometry, but they're just support fire, you don't need them for anything story related that I've found. i.e. they're disposable.

Other than that I like what they've done with the HUD, and the pulse gun is souped up a bit, the alt fire ricochets off of walls, which is handy. I'm enjoying it.

Ahh yes, very nice.. been waiting for this to finish for a while.... 215K/sec from Fileplanet.

Single player campaign 'mod'? A rare thing indeed these days.
