Naked Snake Posted January 8, 2002 Strife is a kick ass game! I don't know how it failed, but damn it shouldn't have. First off, its not just a point and shoot FPS, its got more of an RPG feal to it, even though there is a lot of people that need a good killing. You can get two possible endings, you make the wrong choice, ya die. You can do things in Strife that most source ports can't do yet for DooM. I wish Rouge Entertainment and Velocity would release the Strife source code. 0 Share this post Link to post
Kid Airbag Posted January 8, 2002 If whoever made it decided to release it for free, I'd consider playing it. 0 Share this post Link to post
Zaldron Posted January 8, 2002 Well Rogue Entertainment's and Velocity are gone. I don't remember who published this game, but if it was GT Interactive then I'll say this game's absolute abandonwarez. I don't even know if someone has the source code. You won't see any official announcements for this game, I believe. 0 Share this post Link to post
DooMBoy Posted January 8, 2002 Strife is an OK game. But where it fails in my view as an FPS is the fact that it doesn't have nearly as much action as Doom or the creepiness of a game like Quake2. But, obviously, Rogue Entertainment wasn't shooting for that. As it stands on its on, it's a quite competent game, IMHO. 0 Share this post Link to post

pritch Posted January 9, 2002 Oh no. That username alone should be enough to get any thread with it in post-helled... Hey, as bbg is mod of post hell, it should be his privelege to have his post become number 666. I saw one of his already in there, lol. I thought he'd have deleted it. Or is he just a token mod? 0 Share this post Link to post

pritch Posted January 9, 2002 so why is bbg down as mod in the list then? YOu can't have it both ways. 0 Share this post Link to post
Zaldron Posted January 9, 2002 Yes you can. You're forgetting this software's beta. And bbg's postcount is a bit scary, altough he doesn't post as much as he did before. Right now the only real spammer is pritch ;) 0 Share this post Link to post
CacodemonLeader Posted January 9, 2002 Actually, there are three endings in Strife. They can be achieved by the following: Best Ending: Play through the entire game on any difficulty without using any cheats. Fair Ending: Beating the game on any difficulty, but using cheats (So Cheaters will be disappointed in that one) Bad Ending: If your health reaches down to 0 in Entity's Lair, then you end up with this ending. It's a really disturbing ending btw, so you may want to avoid the ending if possible. 0 Share this post Link to post
Enjay Posted January 10, 2002 The endings are not dependent on cheats, they are dependent on what you do in the game. I can't remember the details, but it is something like if you believe the Oracle, and go and kill Macil when he tells you to, then that sets you on a path that misses out a few levels, and means you get the OK ending if you beat the entity. If you do not believe the Oracle (and kill him - I think), you get to see more of the levels, and can get the better ending if you kill the entity. There are some potential penalties in some of the cheats, but I don't think they change the ending. I could be wrong. 0 Share this post Link to post
CacodemonLeader Posted January 10, 2002 It's a good thing that I decided to go against the Oracle in the first place, cause I never trusted him anyways, but was able to survive the battle against him. I'd rather let Macil turn evil by myself than actually believe that the Oracle said that anyways. 0 Share this post Link to post

Xenoman posted where he shouldnt have and um...well Ling had warned that anyone not on the list would be banned if they posted after a certain amount of idiots posted without being on the list (IMJack being one of them) and well, Xenoman posted and got himself IP banned at first then he was just username banned.
