Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate (Classic)

Le tout premier Chaos Gate! Quel plaisir de le retrouver plusieurs décénies plus tard. Tres respectueux du lore de l'epoque, avec les variétées d'armes et de munitions. Des bruitages de bolter comme on les aimes, des musiques gothiques et un systeme a la UFO dans l'univers de 40k. J'avais adorer le jeux a l'epoque et je l'aime toujours aujourd'hui. Bien sur les nouveaux joueurs vont le trouver moche, archaique et dépasser...mais pour moi il est au dessus du nouveau Chaos gate de par la variété des armes et puis on gere ici plusieurs esouades, pas juste 5 chevaliers gris. Certes il lui manque les phase de gestion de base, construction et recherche comme dans les UFO...

I was looking how to get this game to run just a couple of months ago! What a treat! Be warned this game is VERY buggy. There is a mission i think 8 or 9 where you board a ship with a techmarine and have to retrieve data. If you get stuck walk onto the dead chaos marine with the techmarine and press the pickup icon close that and walk up to the computer in the corner and you should be able to use the tech marine ability. Worth the money played this as a kid and LOVE this game so much. The Emperor Protects.

Death to the traitors

Overall: A solid and fun tactical game that epitomizes the early vibes of Warhammer going back to 2nd-3rd edition era if you are familiar with table top. If you are new to Warhammer or tactical games there are better entry points to those genres but if you can get around the dated controls/systems it is a solid and fun experience. Some Pros; The best part of the game for me is the rpg elements. Each marine gains xp based on how much they do on a mission and will hit breakpoints and level up. You get control over each unit so you can move marines around into different squads if you want and are rewarded for rotating squads through missions so you can level up more than ultra unit. Also maps will have lots of weapon caches with upgraded weapons and ammo which is always worth looting. It is a mechanical advantage to do this but I also really love the rpg feel of that. It conveys a common Warhammer 'situation' where units fight on their own and away from supply lines so salvaging any material they can is vital. The music, layout, and even the dated graphics all really hit the vibe and nostalgia of what Warhammer feels like for me when I got into the hobby. Several mission maps are really fun in how you have to use different squad strengths to dismantle the enemy defenses. The Cons; A lot of systems are clunky and outdated, shouldn't be a surprise for a game this old. If you can learn the keybinds it really helps. The game excels in the first half but later on a lot of missions start to feel very samey. Since death is permanent you have to play each mission carefully or you can lose units very quickly. This leads to a lot of basic missions feeling very repetitive and tedious since even simple side missions requires slow, calculated advancement. Missions are individually not very long though so at least it doesnt drag on too much for an individual mission.

Завычатом шуток про суп наварили, Врата Хаоса в целом и сейчас неплохо играются, да не хватает перевода (который бы НЕ софтлокал игру) и фиксы всяких старотехнических проблем для современных компутахтеров была бы конфетка, ну а так, спасибо что не пешком.

Issue with sound cutting out in game - please fix! Using Linux Mint with launch setting: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw=n,b" PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%

Gotta love when the chaos sorcerer teleports your unit into the ground making them unusable for the rest of the mission
