Topic: Strogg


In the News (Tue 22 Dec 09)

  
  GameSpy: The Classes of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars
The Strogg are a barbaric race of telepathic alien cyborgs bent on universal domination to satisfy their dependence on the food-fuel known as Stroyent.
The Strogg cannot be reasoned with or dissuaded; they are committed to the annihilation of any form of life in their path.
Strogg victims not mulched into Stroyent are forced to undergo Stroggification -- a process of cybernetic augmentation and neurological hacking which removes their self-will and transforms them into ambulant weapons-drones, pliant to the will of the Supreme Strogg, the Makron.

  Strogg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Strogg are a fictional alien race who are the enemies in the first-person shooters Quake II and Quake 4, and a playable faction in the upcoming Enemy Territory: Quake Wars.
The Strogg, being a warlike cybernetic race, are infamous for extensively replacing significant portions of their bodies with weaponry and mechanical prosthetics, so no two Strogg are ever truly the same.
Strogg that work in facilities that deal with hazardous chemicals, such as the aforementioned one, also suffer from continual exposure to such chemicals, progressively degrading their hippocampus and somatosensory system in particular.

As the invasion begins, players choose to battle as one of five unique classes in either the EDF (Earth Defense Force - humans) or the barbaric alien Strogg armies, each augmented with specialist weapons and combat hardware.
Troops utilize over 40 conventional and futuristic vehicles, deployable structures, and defense systems like quad-bikes, tanks, and alien walkers for epic ground assaults; or helicopters and anti-gravity ships to lend firepower from the air.
Throughout each battle, teams establish bases, deploy defense structures, artillery, radar, and advanced forward-command systems into enemy territory while constructing and demolishing obstacles to speed progress and gain a tactical advantage over the enemy and finally win the war.

Naturally, your goal is to slaughter Strogg, a race of aggressive, technologically advanced 'humans' who are built from the remains of the dead, right the source – the planet Stroggos.
Speaking of challenge, the Strogg are surprisingly intelligent; they try flanking you, they hide behind walls to ambush you, come flying at you from weird angles and most importantly, don't just stand there while you pump them full of lead.
The Strogg have their trademark...whatever it is that can be used to tip off their presence, though sometimes they will be quiet and try to pull off a sneak attack.

The only way the Strogg can gain access to the lab interior is by destroying the doors with a Mining Laser, but they cannot deploy this massive excavation device until they disable the GDF Jamming Tower which is scrambling their deployment sensors.
Strogg Infiltrators can call in PsiRadar and their Oppressors call in Bombardment deployables to aid their assault across the bridge, through the doors and into the Ark labs (D).

The hero of Quake II was the only member of his invasion party left alive, and successfully infiltrated the Strogg capital and assassinated the Makron, the leader of the Strogg.
During the original Strogg invasion you were the only survivor of a space station attack, and presumably the trauma has mentally abused you to the extent that the government decided you needed some therapy.
The earth shakes as explosions rock around you, and your heart pounds as a ten foot Strogg with an electrocuted icepick for an arm thunders towards you, but music is practically non-existent with the exception of the menu screen.

During Earth's first invasion of the Strogg homeworld of Stroggos, a nameless marine (whom you play) manages to inflitrate behind enemy lines, and cut off the head of the Strogg war machine by assassinating the Makron, the Strogg leader.
Your mission is simple: mop up the remnants of the Strogg forces, since they're leader is gone they should be disorganized and incapable of mounting a meaningful resistance to the Earthen assault.
You'll take on the giant spider-like Strogg walkers, as well as Strogg gunships, and although these battles don't offer much challenge, it's still pretty exhilerating shooting down a gun ship and watching it spin out of control and crash into a building.

 Quake 4 | PopMatters Multimedia Review
The owners and primary inhabitants of this killing ground are the Strogg, a cybernetic alien race that harvests human bodies.
Perhaps because they're built from our own bodies, the Strogg are crudely human in appearance; most have two legs, two arms (or weapon-festooned robotic appendages where arms would go), and a head.
Later, I came upon a soldier being worked over by a Strogg heavy, and after dispatching the Strogg I discovered that the poor guy had been twisted into a pretzel, perhaps for convenient portability to the cyborgification lab.

Everyone must have forgotten that at the start of the match because they all wanted to be the same class of character and within the first few minutes, managed to be completely overwhelmed by the opposing team.

The story that accompanies Strogg Towers is that the strogg have invented a teleportation system that allows them to teleport anywhere without using q2's trademark telepads.
With Strogg Towers DAV definitely makes good use of vertical space as almost the entire level (with its 130+ enemies) is located in one huge courtyard area with 4 large towers.
If there was one area where I found this map to be a little lacking it would have to have been the visuals.

Right off the bat, Strogg units not seen in Quake 2 are introduced, such as a massive 4-legged spider-walker (which can be seen in the E3 trailer incidentally).
Now, if you don't recall the Strogg's backstory from Quake 2, they produce new warriors from the bodies (and body parts) of captured enemies, which can be a gruesome procedure just as an observer.
After taking out a Strogg fortification's defensive turrets, the walker (and the player) was demolished by one of the spider-walkers, which stabbed a leg through the cockpit glass into the player's face.

Quake 4 was the first title in the series’ long tenure that let you experience what it might be like to use Strogg weaponry.
Don’t let me mislead you though… the Strogg are pretty powerful and have all kinds of cool alien-esque abilities, weapons, and vehicles but the GDF fighters aren’t without their own merciless defensive capabilities.
During the preview, Kevin Cloud from id Software noted that since the Strogg don’t really communicate with humans, the names for their vehicles were spawned by the GDF soldiers.

The Strogg and humans battle for years on Earth, but as resources become depleted, Earth mounts a counter-assault on the Strogg homeworld.
The first assault force is launched from the fleet and encounters overwhelming resistance--most of the drop-ships are destroyed by the Strogg homeworld's massive defense weapon known as "The Big Gun." However, one surviving Marine breaks through and is able to destroy the big gun and ultimately defeat the Strogg leader, the Makron.

 Quake 4: Review -- Strategy Informer
It is your duty to rendezvous with the rest of your squad, and in doing so you venture deep into the Strogg stronghold and, as it usually is with these types of games, witness horrors beyond your imagination.
Considering the Strogg practice cybernetic technology, which of course requires human specimens; those are the kind of things you can expect to be running in to during the course of your single player campaign.
An example if I may; as you enter an improvised medical bay, the first thing you see is a fellow marine strapped to the table; his chest opened widely revealing in detail all of his organs, and strange machines halfway through butchering him completely.

really good map, layout and visuals are what you'd expect from Strogg, but it didn't have the WOW factor his 1on1pack maps had.
Strogg also put some extra effort into optimization, losing approximately 6 MB on the file size.
I really like this one Stogg but the flow is a little bit slow.
