[GoldenEye 007 at UVL](https://www.uvlist.net/game-19844)  
  
Inspired by Virtua Cop’s locational-damage and enemy characters that reacted to injuries, the RARE team began developing a game that dialed up these features. Along the way they added missions with multiple objectives, dynamic sound interaction, enemy surveillance, gadgets, destructible objects, non-combatants, and rewarding precision.  

GoldenEye had fully 3D enemies and destructible objects. Different body parts could be injured individually. Enemy weapons were not part of a monolithic enemy; their weapons could be separated from them, and explosive weapons they carried could be detonated when hit by a stray bullet. Weapon penetration was a factor, with only some weapons having it. You could kill or injure two enemies, or an enemy and a non-combatant. An ally might also suffer from a passthrough bullet.  

More than just missions, each mission varied significantly. And the multiple objectives also varied significantly. Even the first level was divided into three parts and offered: disabling all alarms, two stages of hacking computers, a bungee jump, finding and entering a laboratory, contacting an inside man, rendezvous with fellow agent 006, destroying chemical weapons, avoiding non-combatant casualties, destroying both types of anti-aircraft weapons and gun emplacements, and escaping by plane. Compare this to “find the red key, enter the red door; find the blue key, enter the blue door; find the gold key, enter the gold door; exit.”  

Sound mattered. The player, allies, enemies, and equipment made sounds. Weapons sounded different from each other, including loud, soft, and silenced weapons. There were footsteps, dropped objects, doors, and walls of various materials insulating sound at different levels. Stealth was a matter of sound and sight. Enemies used CCTV cameras, which could be sabotaged—or exploited to lure enemies into ambushes by deliberately acting in view of them.  

And the gadgets. No sonic screwdrivers here. Well, the watch is multifunction—hyper-PDA, electromagnet, laser—but it is __totally not sonic__! The multi-function watch had limitations rather than being a magic wand. Each gadget was specially prepared by M for a specific task for each mission, instead of relying on a few generic tools.
