Anyway, I too have now ordered Vietcong (for a £10) and I am very much looking forward to being blown up by them.
Sort of.

What?
> how isnt it a tactical shooter.
How is it not tactical? Because it isn't realistic. So 1 shot kills and you have to select your own weapon, but counter to what you may know about US Special Forces, Delta Force do not work in small groups of at least 2 people. It's more like the game version of the Chuck Norris Action film which funnily enough is also called Delta Force where he bravely charges through the middle east killing thousands of terrorists with not much as a scratch to himself.
Fun games certainly, but not tactical shooters. They're more fast paced first person shooters with tactical pieces here and there, nothing more.
And good to hear your enjoying the game Monkey Man, if you like the earlier mission you should love the later levels, you even get to drive a jeep at one point and even man the machine gun of a huey helicopter.
Look at me, I'm parachuting yet my aiming is perfect.
Ooh, now I'm standing upright with a 10 tonne sniper rifle in my hands, and the crosshair isn't waivering in the slightest!
I'm jumping up and down, but my aiming is accurate as hell! YeY!
Hmm.
1 hit kills
you choose equipment
you are suposed to use the right gun for each mission (although the machine gun/grenade launcher ruins it by having the advantages of a sniper rifle lots of ammo and lots of fire rates as well as explosives)
but apart from that machine gun/grenade problem how isnt it tactical?
> delta force 1-2 and loved thoes
AHahahahahhaha.
Delta Force 1 - let alone any - a tactical shooter?
I want whatever you've been smoking.
