Recoil
Overview
Recoil is a modern urban warfare mod, conflicting Rioters against the Police.
Aiming to be one of the most realistic and balanced mods produced, recoil features many new characteristics that help add a strategic twist on many aspects of gameplay. If you've ever considered wanting to gouge out a persons eyes, recoil has some of that rage which burns within, but inside a game; waiting for you
Recoil's new graphics overhaul incorporates many fantastic features, including new huds and new effects. These truly add an essence of gameplay seen in few source mods and make Recoil one of those mods that you really will love to look at. The hud features alterations for both teams, the rioters and the police, with the rioters finding a grungy hud and the police with a nice, cleaner one. With Recoil's new hud, you will easily be able to find out the aspects of your gameplay, with it telling you much more information about the game that just health and ammo.
Complete 3D ironsights have also been included in Recoil, adding to the action of the gameplay. Use it ironsights to get the perfect shot! Most shootable weapons will be able to use the ironsights, such as the pistols, smgs and rifles. Not all weapons of course are shootable, with some being lightweight or heavyweight projectiles. How about throwing a molotive into a pack of police; or flushing a building of rioters out with teargas. Rioters will also have the time of their lives, knocking around police with barbwire baseball bats.
Blood sprawled everywhere; Recoil has turned up the gore. With our overhaul of the effects in steam, Recoil could never have looked better. Imaging shooting a wall, and seeing actual rocks fly out, yet it has no effect on your frame rate. A majority of special effects and entities have been improved in the Recoil. Glass, rain, fire and blood have never looked so amazing.
Recoil features and endorses team play. Buy menus are available, but the new weapon selection system means there are a limited amount of weapons for a specific team. Not only can you purchase weapons, you can also purchase new skills. Rioters, wants to wall jump faster? Police, want to run faster? Using your skills properly will get you out of the trickiest situations.
