It does get annoying but these areas are few and far between. The draw distance kind of sucks by today’s standards and there’s a couple of sections where fog will obstruct your view of what’s ahead but enemies in the distance can still shoot you.
On the Medium difficulty, the AI ranges from “can’t hit shit” from two feet away to pin-point accuracy from a mile away making some deaths just feel unfair. As you progress through the game, some of the enemies will begin to carry better firepower like rocket launchers, and those guys are just bullet sponges. Other enemy types include dogs, turrets, tanks, and even helicopters. The enemies are made up of your typical terrorist thugs and bad guys but they’ll vary in appearance, depending on the location. Other than that, it’s your typical arsenal of weapons including shotguns, a couple of submachine guns, a rocket launcher, frag grenades, some handguns, a sniper rifle, heavy machinegun, a flamethrower, and a knife. The Microwave Pulse Emitter can electrocute enemies and it’s alternate fire will expand an enemy until he explodes into a bloody pile of gibs. With that said, all of the weapons feel satisfying to use and you acquire the best weapons late in the game. The violence is extreme, over-the-top, and downright hilarious. 44 Handgun, you can easily blow an enemy’s head off or at least put enough bullets holes in him to almost mimic the death scene of Alex Murphy in RoboCop. The weapons and combat are the real highlight in Soldier of Fortune since almost every weapon can blow an enemy’s limbs off without a problem. It doesn’t matter if it’s a combat shotgun or a.
It doesn’t dip as low as anything with Steven Seagal in it, minus Under Siege, but it feels more like a Chuck Norris movie.

The voice acting is not very good and the entire game feels a lot like an 80’s action movie in many ways which really isn’t a bad thing. It’s like a B-movie. But other than that, I don’t know if it’s possible to fail any other objectives unless you die I guess. After completing a set of missions you’ll visit The Shop where you get a briefing of your next assignment and can equip yourself with weapons and gear. I killed two innocent people by accident and I guess they were hostages. Failing an objective results in an immediate mission failure and I only managed to do that twice. No matter what the objectives are, you’re always just trying to get from point A to B without dying. Every mission has a set of objectives like rescuing hostages, destroying things, and eliminating terrorists. You’ll travel to all different locations around the world including New York, Siberia, Iraq, and even Japan. You’re always partnered up with your buddy “Hawk” who will assist you during most missions but only during scripted events. You get to see Sadaam Hussein at one point which is really a sign of how old this game is now. You play as John Mullins, a mercenary working for an organization known as “The Shop” and need to thwart some kind of terrorist conspiracy involving nuclear weapons. The story in Soldier of Fortune is nothing special and you’ll probably lose interest very early on. It enables you to play the game on modern systems, supports widescreen resolutions, new configuration settings, new commands and cvars, and it forces full-violence mode because it’s 2017 now so who really cares anymore. There’s even a dedicated server version of SoFplus that allows for additional game modes, among other options, but I didn’t even bother with the multiplayer so this review will cover the single player only.

The game actually came with password-protected options to disable all gore and evidently there’s even a version of the game that locks out all violent gore effects.įor this review, I played Soldier of Fortune for PC using the Soldier of Fortune Plus mod. For its time, Soldier of Fortune was an extremely violent game that allowed players to blow off enemy body parts in a satisfyingly gory fashion. It was eventually ported to the Dreamcast and PlayStation 2 in 2001.

Violence in video games has been controversial for some time now and as more and more violent games are released, previous games get swept under the rug.
