I love the internet
 

Its not out till the 17th yet its up for download on the 15th. I really hope this game dosent dissapoint like every game that comes out now a days does.

I've heard it sucks and that the AI is totally useless.

ill see what its like when im done buying it
mwah:

Its decent so far i suppose, the ai is pretty stupid though, sometimes they "take cover" and are completly out in the open. Firing in iron sights is like sniping in cod x100 times more annoying, plenty of times ive obviously hit the target but nothing happened, hitting shots seems to be pretty luck based, unless theyre standing perfectly still and are close most hits seem to be luck.

This however must be the first ww2 game out of the box that actually lets the garand reload mid clip and doesn't stick to that annoying friggin myth that it couldn't be reloaded midclip.

Graphics aren't all that special, textures seem pretty blurred, thats the tradeoff for it being on xbrick and pos2 as well though. Had been a straight pc game id say it would have looked much better.

hows the whole pause the game and look around, then make your plan on what to do with your troops, is it usefull? and are the map's good?

doesnt really do a damn thing ...i dont think i used it more than once.

In all the screens shots the graphics look burly and out of focus, pre-mohaa like, yet IGN gave the game 9/10 in that category. That doesn’t make sense. Anyway the gameplay looks amazing so I’m gonna pick it on the weekend.

I've only played it for about 10 minutes, but i'm not really all that impressed. To tell you the truth, it feels exactly the same as MOH and every other WWII FPS.

Another dumb thing is its capped at around 35fps. Ive a p4 running at 4ghz and an x800xt-pe and this game which looks like ass graphically refuses to go faster than 30 odd fps. eek: stupid: It does spike upto 50 occasionally, im assuming the fps cap was something that was introduced for the consoles..again.

The official forums seem to be going mad, heres a good example:

[quote:ef777]Is it just me or does everyone else have the slowest load times EVER? I mean I literally have to wait for like 5 minutes for each load, maybe a little longer. When I die I have to load again, and it takes just as ****ing long. I thought Far Cry/Doom 3 had slow load times but this is ****ing rediculous. At least it is justifiable with those games because they actually had good graphics - I mean why in the **** should it take this long to load low res textures and seemingly low poly models. I am at a loss. My system specs are: XP 3200+, GIG of RAM, 9800Pro, 7200rpm SATA drive.[/quote:ef777]

biggrin: Funny, the maps take about 10 secs for me at most. Now if i could just take this damn farmhouse... cuss:

I like the game. I agree the graphics aren't top of the line, but they do get the job done. I also love the squad based gameplay. This game doesn't play anything like moh or cod, it's something new and it's fun.

At first I was discouraged by the aiming, I couldn't hit shit, but now I'm doing a little better. Also, Try playing some mp for a bit, the game really grows on ya.

the part after the farm house if a bit tougher ... that where i stopped playing it .

Oy, what a waste of time.

If you don't like a game, so be it. We probably couldn't change your mind ... we won't even try.

However, just because you don't like a game doesn't mean you have to start to derail every thread there is about it. We don't want another Pyro running around in the cod section here...

Just keep it shut and stay out if you don't like it.

sleeping:

Nah. I did take the time to download it after all.

dont argue with the moderators, little man.

seriously dude youre really really annoying. we know you dont like BiA, you dont have to be a Pyro and bitch and gripe about it so everyone will know you are "The Infamous Dr Nein Who Hates BiA". Please, if you dont have anything constructive to say in this forum, dont visit it.

[quote="dr nein":46e9a]Oy, what a waste of time.[/quote:46e9a]

if you dont like the game then exlain why, or dont post at all.

I deleted your posts too. your only sending this boat in another direction only to piss off people

it will be a couple of days untill i play it, but with the reviews it getting, im sure it will be good.

can some take some screen shots?

i could, but im on a low end system, my specs are

-Radeon 9200 128mb
-512mb PC2700 RAM
-2.8ghz P4 with HT Tech

it runs it and everything, but for some reason its just not as graphically advanced as shown in the movie.

im in trouble then,

-radeo 9700 pro
-512mb rdram
-2.4ghz p4

im sure the game will play well on my machine, halflife 2 does, and doom3

im planning to get a radeon 9600xt or a 9700pro, they will run the game fine. Here is 2 screenshots from the single player campaign

Framerate seems to constantly hover around 30-40 nomatter what. oOo:

maybe the engine capps it, like doom3 caps it at 60.

Yeah its capped to 30 or so on the xbox, seems to be the same for the pc but faster cpu's and gfx cards seem to be pushing it over 30 a bit.

^Whatever happened to the promise of no cross-hairs? eek:

I'm guessing you can turn them off.

You can turn them on in options. Kinda lame to do so though.

Anyone who doesn't like tactical games will hate this game from the moment they first try to shoot someone.

I will admit that it took my a couple of hours to get used to so called realistic shooting in the game but once I did it was no problem.

As for the AIs they are better then any other game I played at least they go where I tell them to and actually shoot at the enemy AI and even kill them now and then. (Try men of Valor for real stupid AIs)

Personally I thought the game has excellent graphics and don't understand the bitching about it. Unless they got real pos systems.

Like it said it the tutorial suppress and flank the enemy and you will succeed.

Those who try to run & gun like in COD or MOH will not have much luck.

I wanted to try that and it worked for me just fine. It even made it easier with a squad. Supressed them run up to them and then blew em away.

looks pretty bad

Eh, that's the thing. Some people say it sucks, some people say it rocks.

Ive been trying to rent this game for Xbox since it got released, but movie gallery never has any copies in. mad:

for some reason it looks alot better on nVidia cards, even though it endorses ATI...
