Missions range from the cliche bug hunt to complex, multi-faceted excursions where you must capture a new bug specimen, and defend an outpost from a vicious Arachnid assault. Also notable is the mission where you must reinstate the farmers into their homes, only to find that the bugs have a complex underground framework and rise up through bugholes as soon as the farmers are back in their colony. You may then choose to run from the onslaught, or warn the farmers and help them escape. The first mision with Chameleon bugs is also well done, with clever scripting ind intriguing gameplay, as is the Ice level with the brain bug and the Teleporter level. Oh yeah, and dont let anyone die, or you will have to do every mission with rookies, who have no armor, and can use vey limited weapons.
Graphics are great.
My friend has a p3-700 celeron with only a 2MB video card and it runs ok on that too. Not the most detailed up close, but they look great from the distance that you will be playing. Up close, the textures are a little washy, but nothing terrible. From afar, however the rolling hills come alive with well animated Arachnids and powerful armored soldiers. Sound and music are good.
