Due Process

incredible strategic/tactical fps. Not abnoxiously difficult to be good, since you have to think clearly, not move just move the mouse correctly when the meta intends it to.

Le pasa el trapo a la mayoria de juegos actuales con millones en presupuesto. Una joya, lastima la gente no sale de los juegos de siempre y se pierden joyas como esta.

Fundamentally, being a good tactician doesn't mean memorizing an environment that you've revisited hundreds (if not thousands) of times, nor does it mean knowing exactly how fifty unique pieces of equipment interact with each other: Rather, it demands a good fundamental understanding of basic principles, a substantial degree of foresight, and strong unit-level cohesion as a volatile situation actively develops. Unlike every other quote-unquote "tactical" round-based shooter, the creative minds behind Due Process understood and sought to create an experience that transfers the skill ceiling away from the memorization of environments and equipment and raw weapon skill, and instead towards the simple (yet remarkably difficult) two tasks of planning and executing. The procedurally-generated map design, although not completely random, often requires players to quickly take in a completely new environment, which necessitates the development of a well thought-out plan in a short amount of time, and the consideration of strategic points of interest and a plethora of interactive map elements. Unfortunately, due to a lack of publisher support, the development team may not be able to release and rotate maps at a fast enough rate to ensure that maps are not seen multiple times, but nonetheless, the principle and foundations for fulfilling the developer vision are there, and I hold out hope for the remaining team of volunteers in their daunting task. I hope to one day contribute to the game as well. Besides the innovate approach to map design, the asymmetric style of play as an attacker versus defender also highlights the development team's dedication to incentivizing gameplay that, in many ways, mimics that of a real possible SWAT stand-off. Attackers are inherently advantaged when they are able to move quickly and dynamically in small groups, while defenders excel when they can maximize the amount of resources attackers need to expend to push through choke points. Because of this dichotomy between semi-aggressive attackers with strong utility for breaching standard rooms and guerrilla-esk defenders that must use their equipment properly to stall and put the attackers in pain-points, the resulting product is that attackers tend to maneuver dynamically in small teams while checking corners and prepping rooms, while defenders try and maintain space from the attackers and punish them for making any small tactical slip, such as a failure to consider rear security, check corners, or failing to use their handhelds to their greatest effect. Lastly, the game's (arguably) simplistic approach to movement, weapon damage, and health has the result of reducing the general effectiveness of any individual and reducing the importance on weapon skill that dominates other round-based competitive shooters, which further increases the importance on developing sound plans and executing them well in a team environment. Overall, I would consider Due Process to be one of the most rewarding multiplayer FPS games I have ever played, and I highly recommend any remotely interested players to pick up a copy when it is on sale.
