Playing SWAT 4 ONLINE After 13 Years
Still Best Swat Game Ever! - Action starts at 01:17 - Released 13 years ago and people still play it online 24/7 while the official masterserver has already been shut down many years ago. I just joined a random server and met these awesome guys! I'm sorry for the voice chat quality, but I still wanted to upload this video since the teamplay and the communication was so good and since it shows some of the many different awesome aspects of this game!
Swat 4 was released in 2005. It's not available on steam (but on gog) and the official masterserver has been shut down many years ago, but people are still playing this game 24/7 and You will always find some guys to play with. The game has a very active community, clans and people are still fighting for the best rankings on the inofficial toplist.. and all that even after 13 years :D You can either download the fanmade masterserver plugin or visit a website to list available servers and then connect ingame by typing in the specific server IP.
In this game You actually try to arrest suspects and not to just shoot them, if You play serious. You are only allowed to shoot suspects if they aim at You and if they decline to put down their guns after several warnings. There are also many different ways to put suspects out of action by using non-lethal force. It's also Your job to secure evidences, rescue hostages, defuse bombs, report everything to HQ and much more.
While the missions shown in the video were quite successful , don't think that this game might be easy. It's actually really really hard if You go for a high mission-rating and if You play serious. Often You will have to make hard decisions like in just one second and decide if it's right to shoot or not and if You make the wrong decision, You might get killed in the blinking of an eye. The missions are quite diversified and feature scenarios from arresting single individuals in their private home (like that psychopath) up to confronting large groups of professional terrorists.
Swat 4 features Singleplayer Missions + Campaign and different modes of Multiplayer Modes like COOP and PVP. In Singleplayer You lead a group of 4 bots which You can give orders by using a command interface, which is quite pretty cool.
To me Swat 4 is still by far the best swat focused game out there, since it's more realistic, very tactical and not just a flat "just kill everybody" shooter like most other swat shooters out there.
