Modder ‘Stutterteturtle’ has released a cool Brutal Mod for Monolith’s classic AvP game, Aliens vs Predator 2. This mod aims to enhance the game’s gore. So, if you want AvP 2 to feel more brutal than before, you should definitely use it.
Going into more details, this Brutal Mod adds blood trails on flesh debris. It also restores the human skull piece, and allows the Pulse Rifle and Smartgun to gib humans and the predator. Plus, the environment debris will now stay visible for a long time.
You can download this mod from this link. At the end of the article, you can also find a video for it. This video will give you a pretty good idea of what you can expect from it, so be sure to watch it.
To be honest, I prefer the first AvP over the second one. AvP came out in 2000 and looked incredible. On the other hand, AvP 2 came out in 2001 and it wasn’t a big visual upgrade over the first AvP. Or at least that’s how I felt when I played it.
Now although I preferred the first AvP, it doesn’t mean that AvP 2 was a bad game. Far from it. In fact, the atmosphere and the pacing of the first level in AvP 2 is off the charts. Sadly, though, the other levels are not as incredible as that first level.
Since Warner Bros has closed Monolith, I highly recommend re-playing this classic AvP game. AvP 2, Shogo, Blood, NOLF 2 and FEAR were the games that made PC gamers fall in love with Monolith. I still can’t believe that Warner Bros has closed this studio. But sadly, the writing was on the wall.
Enjoy!
