007 Nightfire

[caLLous]

Fail to see a general FPS discussion bit, so I thought I'd throw this in here... Is anyone else having massive problems with bugginess in this game?

On the whole it's excellent, a good balance of stealthy/sneaky bits and shoot-the-shit-out-of-everything bits. But when I start a certain level, I am sans gadgets. I started the level the first time with the usual array of weapons and gadgets (weapons - pistol, smg; gadgets - laser watch, grappling hook phone thing, qworm bugging thing, etc), and got killed dishearteningly quickly. I restart the level from the same savegame (autosave at the start of the level) and I am without any weapons or gadgets. :/

I ran up behind a guard and knocked him out, so I have his gun, and I then tried to go on and complete the mission without gadgets, but I need the qworm thingy to finish it, and the game autosaved since the start of the mission. The most recent savegame I have is from like a good 3 missions ago and I'm all sorts of pissed off.

*cry*

Also, on a not so serious bug-related note, sometimes the ammo count and crosshair randomly disappear.

 

[mank!]

I didn't have that problem with the PC version. In fact, I don't recall any bugs with it. It was a pretty good game though

Although not as good as GoldenEye!

I wasn't very impressed with the demo...

it had to load every time i went through a door...

 

[~Lazarus~]

ive finished it and thot it was a good playing game.

Although there were some bugs (main one for me was the disappearing x-hair - sorted that by selecting another weapon)

Never noticed other bugs

 

[Scooba Da Bass]

I thought it was an exceptionally bad game, so much of it made so little sense.

 

[Moving Target]

I thought it seemed rather random.

Thanks for the reviews guys!

mank, do you perchance have a savegame at the start of the island bit? After you get out of the skyscraper... The most recent one I have before this level is Mayhew's house, which is ages ago.

 

[mank!]

No mate, sorry. I deleted all of my save games once I finished it :/

 

[caLLous]

Fear ye not! I found a level unlocker (thanks DEViANCE!) and can now play as normal from the start of the Island Getaway level. Seeing as there appear to be no accumulative stats over the entire game (I think?) it shouldn't make a difference. Not that I pay much attention to them anyway.

Nah, there isn't. The ending is very disappointing though

It's a pity Nightfire was so short, I completed it in a couple of evenings with a mate here. GoldenEye took me much longer ;(

Goldeneye was the mutt's nuts, I still play it regularly to this day.

 

[mank!]

After using PC's for so long, I find it weird trying to play FPS games on a console, so I've not played it for ages. It still rocks though

 

[caLLous]

And I finished it! And what a completely fucking bollocks ending! As if to add insult to injury, the end video cut short and I had to refinish the game to see it all. :\

(But then I noticed that all of the ingame movies are avi files in the game dir, heh)

 

[mank!]

Told you the ending sucked
