I have to disagree, I have a bitch of time getting some of the suspects to surrender. I LOVE Swat 4, some of the levels had me pulling my hair out, you die so easy, and the dynamic element when you start a level over make it very difficult because you can't plan for random events.
realistic, your teams AI is pretty good, they do what you ask, the enemy AI is good too, you never know what they'll do. The Hotel level gave me a bitch of a time, as did the laboratory one. I love the game to death and as hard as it is, I still play it. Awesome graphics, great missions, and nothing's as cool as creeping along only to have a crazy ak-47 welding psycho run out of nowhere and start blasting on you.
You can expect slow game play, if you Rambo you die, you need to mirror every door, every corner. The pace can get pretty quick when you bust in room full of baddies, especially if there are hostages in the room. One hostage dies and it's game over
I love the randomness of it. You can replay the same level 50 times and it'll never play out exactly the same. I never actually beat the game I should go load it and try to knock out the last few levels.
if you kill terrorists who aren't shooting at you, it takes points away, you might even finish the level and still loose. But one bug I found, if your snipers see a baddie and you nail them, regardless of if they have a gun out or not, it doesn't effective the outcome of the mission and you can still win
