============================ - 8) Common Questions - ============================
)) Gameplay (( ----------------------------
<< What would you rate Postal 2: Share the Pain? >>
- I'd rate this game a [7/10]. The original Postal 2 was a partial flop mainly because it only had single-player, and single-player was very short. Postal 2: StP adds multiplayer with two new game modes, and according to Gamespot is what Postal 2 should have been. The game itself has decently great graphics. Everything is in 3D, with clean-cut animations. The town itself is somewhat sectioned off, especially with loading times interfering between each section, however, the design is quite up to par with most FPSs. The game's true value arises from the massive amount of prejudice and uncensorship that occurs in the game. You can pee on people, brutally beat others down, decapitate people, and do all of this while not affecting your objectives. As a matter of fact, it may assist in completing an objective. While you cannot drive vehicles, and the multiplayer is non-existant because hardly anyone plays, this is still a decent game that every MATURE gamer out there should try. There is a reason this game was banned in several countries, and it certainly isn't because of the blood spewing out of targets.
<< Are there any other versions of Postal 2? >>
- Yes, there are 3. The first one is Postal 2 which is the original game. Postal 2: Share the Pain is the game this guide is about, which adds multiplayer and optimizes the single-player game. Finally, Postal 2: Apocalypse Weekend is the expansion pack which adds over 20 new areas to your map, and alters gameplay drastically with undead creatures and a new single-player storyline. There is also multiplayer additions.
<< What's the current patch? >>
- The game initially comes with version 1407. You need patch 1409 which adds a new area to the game, and also tweaks some problems with the multiplayer. Not to mention, 1409 is the only way to play multiplayer.
<< How do I get Postal 2: StP? >>
- Visit www.gopostal.com and you can order it from an online store. You can also grab it off eBay, or at your local PC gaming store (dependent on your location, due to the maturity of the game).
<< Are there ways of censoring the extreme violence? >>
- Yes and no. In the options menu, you can alter blood amounts and items of that sort, however, I found nothing to change the audio sounds, which often contain the f-word. It doesn't bother me, but it may bother people around you while you play the game - if you give a crap, hehe.
<< Is there a sequel planned for this game? >>
- Yes. Postal 3 is planned to be released for the XBOX 360 & PC. It supposedly will have a better graphics engine compared to the Unreal engine used in Postal 2. It is not known if the game will be censored or not the on the 360.
