This is a multi-level Single Player campaign based on the 20th Century Fox movie, 'Alien vs Predator' (2004) explored from the Perspective of one of the Predator initiates that enters the pyramid. The Campaign is structured to follow the events of the AvP movie up until the point where two young Predators are killed by the Alien known as 'Grid'. That event does not occur in this Campaign and an alternate narrative branches just prior to this incident. You will be required to combat Humans and Aliens; and solve environmental obstacles and puzzles. Your goal is to complete specific Objectives in order to survive and finish the Campaign. You will then finally be acknowledged as worthy to join the the 'Brothers of the Spear' Clan as a fully fledged member of their Hunter caste. You will be accompanied on your Rite of Passsage Hunt by a pair of young AI Predator Escorts and they acknowledge you as their superior. You can Order basic commands to the Escorts by pressing the 'Use' key. Pressing it initially will command them to follow you. Pressing the key a second time will command them to hold their ground and guard a location. You will need to select them at the beginning of each map to command them to follow you. Selecting them again will once again command the Escorts to stand guard. ...and so on. The Escorts will automatically attack an enemy when they come within visual range. On occasion, the Escorts will take damage from gunfire or from Alien close quarters combat. If the Escorts take too much damage, they will fall to the ground into an injured position. They will become vulnerable and unable to get back onto their feet and you must 'heal' them before they can continue to follow you. It features a weapons replacement mod that recreates the Predator weapons seen in the film (Wristblades, Combistick, Javelin, Netgun, Shuriken and Plasmacaster are all included. The Noose and Wrist Nuke is absent from the Campaign selection). The Plasma Pistol has been removed from the game's weapons set and has been replaced with a Player throwable Javelin. The Smart Disk has been replaced with by the Shuriken and the new weapon can be picked up later in the Campaign. |
