The Interceptor team takes requests and Rise of the Triad 1.2 is chock-full of fan favorites and most-requested features. Yeah, developers who listen to the people that buy their games, CRAZY STUFF!
First up is the Ludicrous Development Kit, enabling the creation of custom maps and mods (remember those?!) with over 16,000 assets including the complete set of assets from Rise of the Triad, the original version. Yeah, Interceptor INVENTED the remix, but this is your chance to party like it's 1995. Check this video for details and click this link to get started.
Next up: Quicksaves! Save and load your game anywhere and anytime and shh, we won't tell how many tries you needed to make that jump. It'll be our little secret. Heh heh heh.
And then, KABLAMMO, No More Loggins, Kenny! Quit trying to remember your username and password because with Rise of the Triad 1.2, you only need to login to the servers if you want to sync your offline saves, post your high scores to the leaderboards, or chat with other players via the in-game chat rooms. Logging in is no longer required for multiplayer at all! Even a few mouseclicks and keystrokes can't stop the fun.
