Vietcong (your thoughts?)
 

Whats your opinion on the new FPS Vietcong?

I played it, ah my mouse was way to sensitive, hmm not bad, coo environments, nice settings, models seemed ok. I liked that you could go in prone position. The buttons were little confusing but overall looking forward to seeing what they do with this game and how it is when released in Feb.

is that that free game???

If you know where to look

lol

no i think i m right

the mp of vietcong is jungle war and thats for free but i never tried it so i cant say what i think of it

I like the game. It has great graphics and physics. and Vietcong mode does a good job at getting it close to realistic, even though they still should tell you how many clips you have left, I would know that.

I can't get a good DL site. The best I've had so far was 18kb a sec, and thats with a cable connection.

I ad the same problem so i just did it overnight.


I also have cable. mad:


I think it was worth the wait.

I didn't like it. Like Glory said the mouse was way to sensitive. I could shoot a thing. The iron site while prone was very nice though.

When I downloaded from hmmm *cough* Gayspy I got it pretty quickly. Yea Gothic just set your mouse sen almost all the way to the left and you should be fine, thats what I did and it moved great.

Another thing I like about the game is they have medics, radiomen blah blah blah all that good stuff, not in demo but u can see there is option to choose that. The sound effects werent bad either, dont like the death cine though but overally pretty good so far.

I thought only the demo was out. The games out too?

i think only the mp game off it

good concept, laggy as a motherfudger

no lol I said u can see the option for those things, but they arent enabled, as in they will be in the game just not demo. Laggy hmm I hosted 6 and it ran well, pings 60-120 wasnt bad.

is that with the demo patch?

[quote="Capt. John Miller":24223]is that with the demo patch?[/quote:24223]

o shi* didnt know there was one lol

I played the demo when someone posted the link last week, it wasn't that bad. Graphics were OK, but laggy.

You sig looks more like you need to take a good shit and have nowhere to go....

i got the full working game....(arrr matey) i think it is a very good game. i dont have any mouse sensitivity probs, the jungle maps are amazing....the enviroments are huge. you can actually get lost in this game which is a new experience for me heh. playing in vietcong mode rocks, no crosshair no anything expcept your weapons. i like the classes too, you can be a radio man and call in air strikes, or an engineer and set booby traps. the single player is outstanding too. 2 thumbs up biggrin:

I took one look at the fan site forum and decided against it for now... according to them it seems the game suffers from tons of bugs and exploits, even more so than MoH did.

I'll check back from time to time to see if these are fixed, but I'll leave it until they are. Some of them sound horrific (No bush textures on certain cards and settings - big advantage in a jungle... Able to hack skins to make yourself look like the enemy to the enemy - Map exploits... the list goes on).

I like Vietcong. biggrin:

try bringing back something more memorable next time

This game has everything MOHAA should have had. Prone, iron sights, medics, radiomen etc etc.

Great game

The game is fun and the mp is friendly to my 56k modem but some of the sp missions are soo pointless and boring like the tunnel missions and in the mission where you are in the swamp it is literally to dark to see anything and I couldn't use my flashlight

I love the game...just having a problem finding MP servers that are below 175 ping.Must not be to many Easy Coast servers out there.But from what I have played MP it is awsome.Single Player is also excellent..

Have you ever heard of the tunnel rats in Vietnam.They did just that went into the tunnels to search and clear them.So I think that was a very cool addition to the game and far from pointless..just adds that much more intensitiy to the game.Not knowing when the next VC will pop up around a corner in a tunnel.
And the swamp levels..Since they representing aswamp in a dense jungle light does not penetrate very well so it is going to be very dark and you wont be able to see very far in front of you.Again makes it more intense and interesting to play.[/quote]

heh, coop is fun, I really laced into charlie.

My review of Vietcong


Pros


20 guns that look and sound excellent
lots of Good teamwork invloved
fun levels e.g. you get to drive a jeep
Realistic battles
long compared to recent shooters
Quick fight (Skirmish mod)
The more you progress in the mission campaign ,the more weapons and maps you unlock in the Quick fight
Excellent mp and fun co operative
Funny Tutorial (I love pissing off the drill instructor)
Very atmosperehic

Cons

Team AI can get stuck in ditches some times
You will either find the tunnel missions fun or frustrating
Some levels are pitch black making it really hard to complete the level
Graphics are outdated (I didn't actually care about the graphics ,for me it's gameplay that more important)
Some minor bugs


Overall Vietcong is an excellent game
