This problem was patched soon after the release, although loading times were still a problem thanks to the game’s use of a simulated " sandbox" world. When the game shipped it was crippled by frequent loading times of up to 90 seconds which many reviewers found unacceptably long. One of the earlier games based on Unreal Engine 2 and making use of Karma rag-doll physics, the game could support up to 50 on screen AI NPC's who were intended to provoke you and occasionally set off on their own rampages whereupon the local police would have slightly more interest in them than your potentially law breaking activities.

Whether the game is enjoyable or not comes down primarily to the players appreciation for over the top crude humor. Widely panned by critics and gamers alike, as well as being banned in many countries, it has remained a niche game with a fairly hard-core cult following. However, it's been pointed out that doing this is incredibly hard and not very rewarding. The developers have used this mantra to defend the game from critics. It is possible to get through the game without killing anyone and the game itself boast that it is "Only as violent as you are".

The basic premise is to get through the game completing a daily list of mundane tasks along the lines of picking up your paycheck from work, where you subsequently get fired and berated by your boss (Running With Scissors founder Vince Desi), then trying to cash the check at the local bank where masked men storm in with guns preventing you from getting your money.Įach day grants playersnew tasks, and the day ends when you both complete all tasks and return home. Story Peeing on people can cause them to vomit - An example of the "low" humor in Postal 2 Due to the violent and offensive nature of the game it was very much a dividing title for gamers with a love or hate reaction and little room between.
