    I am totally biased, cause I loved this game as a teenager on LAN partys. Sadly the physics and time is tied to the FPS, which makes the game run ultrafast on modern hardware. All normal FPS limiter - even the one integrated in the Nvidia driver - wont work. Looked around for a fix and found a solution. How to fix the speed problem: 1. Download directx 8 wrapper: https://github.com/ThirteenAG/d3d8-wrapper/releases 2. unzip both files in the "system" folder of the game 3. open the…

    just like old time... except faster, like others people said... this change the feeling of the game a lot. By what i saw, 1 real second is around 5 second ingame ? gamespeed in the MobileForces.ini and Profile00.ini are ignored. so right now, no easy fix when the price is cut, its a must have anyway ( you can set the bot skill lower if needed ) if you wanna play over internet, the host need to forward port 7777 to 7779 and 8777 ( all UDP ) your friend will have to go in multiplayer / Open…

    Blast from the past, this game is just amazing. The chaos on these maps and gamesmodes with the sounds is just fantastic Just need an FPS locker (Like Rivatuner Statistics) to lock the FPS at 60 and everything works perfectly. Wish they remastered this for some online fun

    This game is gold. Runs fine on Windows 10, just as how i remember it running on Windows XP. Some very minor bugs still present (some crosshairs don't match as the ones selected in the menu, they are just swapped around), but you can't really expect those to be fixed after all these years. About this game, it's like Battlefield had a baby with Counterstrike. In an alternate universe, this game is the one that would be as popular as them, unfortunately it never caught on that much. Has a lot…

    A barrel of laughs and some good nostalgic fun. Holds up surprisingly well even now. Sadly, the multiplayer is no longer available, but even singleplayer with AI opponents has enough well-made content to justify the asking price.

    Despite this review being after "10 hours," I have played this game my whole life (since I was 10). I'm now one of the only people keeping Mobile Forces multiplayer alive.

    Mobile Forces is a good multiplayer shooting game. Pros: + Large maps. + Eight unique game modes. + Very clever AI teammates. They know the best tactics. + Four vehicles with different characteristics. + Every vehicle has two weaknesses: tyres and fuel tank. If they lose tyres when you are driving, you will lose control too. When enemy hit the fuel tank of your vehicle by a high-powered bullet from a sniper rifle or some bullets from other weapons, then you will dead for sure. Cons: - Player…

    Childhood memories! It's still great fun to play this game at a LAN party. It's all about good mechanics, pretty graphics are overrated. It runs on Linux using SteamPlay too.

    This game brings me back to my childhood memories. When I saw it to came to steam, I knew this is a "must buy" title. I bought it on sale for 1,1€ and absolutely worth it. You can play the missions or in skirmish mode or a nostalgic lan party with your friends ;) Buy it now ;)

    Mobile Forces, developed by Rage Software and published by Funbox Media Ltd, is an early-2000s first-person shooter that occupies a unique space in the genre’s history—a transitional experiment blending classic arena-shooter gunplay with vehicular combat years before such hybrids became mainstream. Released in 2002 and powered by the original Unreal Engine, it arrived during a competitive era dominated by Counter-Strike, Quake III, Halo, and Unreal Tournament. Rather than attempting to imitate…

    For being as old as this game is I think it holds up well. I have played it for years, its a simple FPS with vehicles and lots of guns, etc. The controls are simple, there is no complexity really to the game and I like that. For the price I encourage anyone who likes FPS games to give it a try.

    If your just looking for a quick deathmatch game then this is your game. but its 20 years out of date and easily repetitive but still fun to play here and there.

    This is pretty much just Counter Strike: Condition Zero on Unreal Engine, except with less in it. Besides the vehicles I guess, but they don't really add much to the gameplay, but they are fun to drive. The levels kinda remind me of timesplitters a little with the varying locations, however the actual map design leaves a lot to be desired, they are large (which I like), but they often just fall into two, or sometimes even one lane maps, not very interesting to play, but kinda interesting to…

    It's a basic but fun game that emulates Counter Strike and Half Life and related games. You can play arena style matches with typical FPS multiplayer loadouts. There is a campaign mode where you complete matches against bots to unlock new maps, which is fun. Atmosphere is a bit surreal, kind of like those surprise indie horror games, but this is actually a very old, standard FPS multiplayer game from a generation ago.

    I am not exaggerating when I say that this is the best multiplayer FPS game I have ever played. Even though SteamDB says I'm the only person in the world playing it right now. After only an hour, here's everything I love about it - It's simple, in terms of it not having mechanics like sprinting, extreme mobility and ADS - The maps are huge but there's always someone nearby to fight - You can play it offline with up to 15 bots, which are customisable - Plenty of game modes and a good variety of…

    the maps are quite large and the ai is suprisingly smart when it comes to combat. it feels like a lesser yet fun poor mans counterstrike, however it makes up for it with decent visuals for the time and lots of cool loadouts. i think its a great game even to play with bots. if your a fan of counterstrike for sure pick this one up.

    I played the demo for this game on my dads old computer years ago and I loved it. It only had one game mode and one map and only 2 of the vehicles out of the 4 available but I played the absolute hell out of it. Probably a year after that we found a copy of the full game at an EB Games store in the mall and it was and still is an amazing game for me to play. The enemy AI isnt the smartest around and youll quickly find that certain AI characters are way more dangerous than others but its still a…
