This is one of the most epic memories of my youth! And that's ONLY because one of the GREATEST soundtracks ever made. Also that fckn sky. I don't know why, but the amount of open space makes its so endlessly godlike, you just absolutely feel the scale. It's so very simple and yet so very effective.

I remember back in 2008, I was in a netcafe playing this map alone (years and years later I found out I was playing on the highest difficulty because I didn't know English back then ) and then a friend of mine joined in. After like 15 minute of constantly dying, the netcafe owner joined in but also struggling. I remember its was like an hour and the amount of players increase through out time and in the end we have like 10-15 guys in the same LAN playing this map and screaming their ass off playing. It was so fun back then, wish I can experience something like that again

They weren't so bad in First Encounter, where they would always just run straight at you, but in Second Encounter Croteam added some basic intelligence to the Kleers so that they would try to flank you or sidestep just as you fired at them. Made it a lot more difficult to deal with hordes of them.

The addition of the flamethrower in Second Encounter and its ability to burn through many enemies was a blessing when fighting hordes of Kleers. Since they always charged face-first at you, all you needed to do was pull a matador move on them, move to the side at the same time you ignite them and the afterburn killed the suckers within 5 seconds, so you just had to keep running backwards and dodging. Adding that weapon was a truly merciful move to us from the creators.

Thank you so much for your walkground, that was awesome! I watch it third time already and still love your game-style. Espesially I love your comments in the description! Maybe someday you could play once again, but with finding all secrets, that would be amazing.

Nice work man.Please,can you show in a video or a screenshot your video settings?I am have some problems with the graphics.

In a way I kind of feel like this should've been Sam's final stand. Fighting this much shit off would of been a epic way to end this and he would have ended up saving the day. Of course they could've made the ending ambiguous leaving you guessing what happened as the fight was amazing. Since BFE was a prelude it would've been a nice way to end things. Of course they could've done spin offs for the people who still wanted more. But I don't know that's just my take on this amazing game and series. The reason I thought about this was the fact that this fight had all the signs of this, the music, amount of enemies and all the other little things just made it feel like one big final push to save the world, but to only sacrifice himself in the process. I guess Sam is just to bad ass too die.
