Painkiller Expansion Shots

painkiller MP is 10 gazillion times better then doom mp

cept like no one plays it

I liked Painkiller for what it was, but I felt it had two fairly massive problems. 1st, the arsenal wasn't too hot. The stake gun was kind of fun and the minigun/RL was cool but there was just something missing.

The 2nd problem, and this is a fairly serious problem IMO, is that supposedly you were in limbo or hell or whatever, but the levels just looked like real world locations, only inhabited by themeless zombies. The problem was especially pronounced after the cutscene where the goth dude with the white hair tells you "no, you cna't go to hell, you don't know what it's like!" And what's the next level? A pleasant Venice-like water front with a nice sunset. Oh no the HORROR! Followed by (iirc) an abandoned train station. The FEAR!

The expansion seems to be more of the same. "Battle out of Hell" Apparently one of hell's scenic locations includes a WWII set.

I think the Painkiller engine is great. On my aging system, I was able to play with all the effects turned on with AA and still get buttah framerates. I just wish someone with a more focused sense of art direction would license it and take it for a spin.

I STILL say that Painkiller looks nicer than Doom 3.

It's not always about engine power, but someitmes about what you do with it.

WW2 Hell mod for Painkiller!

You play as Hitler, and you will battle the demon horde and escape from Hell with your army of Nazi-era tanks and other vehicles!

Have you seen Painkiller's hell? That is the best hell level ever imo.

I want to fire a rocket into the middle of this http://www.shacknews.com/screens.x/painkiller/Painkiller:+Battle+out+of+Hell/2/093004/painkiller_booh_pirate_caves_07.jpg

I hope there are at least a few loose physics objects in there.

man i loved playing the painkiller sp but i didn't understand all the problems with playing over a lan....if they haven't yet maybe they should have fixed that before trying to release an expansion :(

Evidently hell has a level from Call of Duty in it?
