[ Transcript of review for Digital Extremes Mutators | Posted by Peter on 2002-10-23 | Score: 8.9 ]
3 in 1
There are three mutators in this mutator. Two are okay and one is excellent. The three mutators are as follows: volatile ammo, volatile weapon, and team beacon. The volatile weapon mutator makes your weapon explode when you die. The volatile ammo mutator replaces regular ammo packs with exploding ammo packs, and the team beacon mutator shows a triangle above teammates' heads.
Triangle man
This mutator is worth getting just for the team beacon mutator. In games where friendly fire is turned on (or worse mirror damage), you might kill a teammate by accident if you don't recognize their skin easily, and when people are at a distance, it's very hard to recognize whether the player is an opponent or friend. With team beacon, you'll easily spot teammates, so you won't be ridiculed and be called a TKer. While team beacon does not prevent you from harming teammates, it reduces the changes of hurting a teammate.
Average up
The other two mutators, volatile weapon and volatile ammo, aren't that bad (actually volatile weapon is fun to use), but the team beacon mutator is what raised the score to 8.9.
