Iron Grip: The Oppression Release Imminent!

[SnotRocket]

According to PHL, the HL2 mod Iron Grip is soon to release. It looks beautiful, and has an interesting concept as well. Release party is today, and release should be today or tomorrow.

Don't waste your time, its hardly past alpha right now. The concept was cool, but the execution was lackluster. The RTS person needs to be a tactical genius to win, even then he somehow has to protect his NPC 'general' from 10 other REAL players who can easily zerg and kill him anyways.

Where is the party at? Crunk time.

The videos they've posted all look like total crap. When you play in first person, the character seems to fly over the ground. Blergh, doesn't interest me at all.

Lags hard when tanks get involved, and the oppresion controls are broken. I would be flat out surprised if the resistence ever lost a single round. Guns are neat looking but ugly (not in a dirtied up kind of way, a bad models and textures kind of way). If this mod gets patched real quick then it might make it. Though I would put my money on it failing, not being mean, just realistic.

Loving the Ron Jeremy Resistance Fighter.

Seems the devs fixed the lag and balanced it out more with this new patch. Haven't tried it yet but it sounds good. This mod now has a chance (still ugly though )

did u ever see the first screens of Counter Strike, now thats ugly and look at it today.

This mod should be played on a server with a maximum of 6-8 people. If you go over that limit then the mod will lag. The patch fixed a few issues and now the resistance can't rush Rahmos. Now, Rahmos actually seems more powerful. This mod is worth playing, just set the server limit to 6-8.

The biggest problem I've noticed with the mod is that every time I join the server the resistance spends half it's time being team killed because people seem to download a mod but not know naything about it. I keep seeing team kills and people either not acknowledging it or going "This isn't death match...?" after the 50th tie being called an idiot.

To me personally the game could use a tutorial, or a big screen that says "RTFM" as soon as you boot it up.
