World In Conflict
 

Was watching my dad play the demo and it looked freaking awesome. Think Company Of Heroes, but in 1989 in WW3. Here is the story line

[quote:bdfcd]The invasion force of Soviets, which was hidden in a fleet of civilian container ships, lands in the middle of downtown Seattle where heavily outnumbered National Guardsmen must attempt to delay action in a fight to buy time for civilians to retreat. During this mission, you must command a small force of Bradley-armored personnel carriers as you attempt to scout the waterfront and then proceed to rescue pockets of surrounded guardsmen. Then it's off to secure the parking lot of the Kingdom to open up a landing zone for helicopters and battle your way out of the city. The downtown Seattle in the game is relatively faithful to the real thing.[/quote:bdfcd]

The graphics are great, go DL the demo. It should tax gerv's rig.

Im surprised 10 views and 1 reply, you guys suck at life.

Fuck sorry I was going to say CoH is awesome, but then I had diarrhea (no joke) and I had to go blow my asshole out.

Looks like a prettier version of OFP, since RTS games hate to show actual RTS elements in their screenshots.

eh. i don't have the intelligence to deal with RTSes successfully. :[

Yeah, but my reply equaled 10 replies in the awesomeness department.

rock: looks pretty kick ass mang, def will try it out

Were you sitting on his lap?

me too
- im an action/shooter gamer - like my games running on total instinct.

Me=too dumb to play rts's

That games meant to have an annoying bug on dual cards that hurts performance, no idea if it was ever fixed.

Only rts games i like are games like C&C, not much else =/

looks leet, but what is an rts?

real time strategy

Hey Milla, your dads a bad ass. Tell him Ark said hi.

lol will do. I mean you would probably love to throw a few back with him, retired city fire fighter, loves to do side jobs like remodeling and shit. He just finished our kitchen.

Beta was lack luster and rather dull. You end up using very few units because anything else gets its ass kicked. It was fun, for all of about 30 minutes before i had kinda burnt out on the chess type gameplay.

Oh i see your using medium choppers to shoot down my heavys. Well i'll just get some mediums to shoot down your mediums. Oh shit you got more, fuck. Guess i'll stop buying heavys all together and just go mediums to counter your mediums, since no one will provide AA. Oh wait theres a "support" guy doing nothing but AA, there just to slow moving and are easily avoided, fuck. Oh damn my air to air strike missed because it took 30 seconds to call in, and no one stays still that long unless there wrecking my shit.

I dunno, it had a few moments where it was ok, but not great. Typically a 20 minute game was over well before that because one side just stomped the other in 3 minutes and it was over.

this game is out today. anyone going to try it out? i haven't played the demo but will before i decide if i'm gonna get this one. i think it's been getting pretty good reviews.

not many games lately have gotten good reviews too

Gamespot gave it a 9.5 which is unreal. I hardly see them give out that high of a score.

I played the demo last night. I have mixed feelings toward the game. It looks nice, but I guess there's a little bit of a curve to it. Pretty much all you can get for armour is the Bradley fighting vehicle which is annoying because when you're fighting the Russian tanks the main guns do nothing. You have to select each unit and separately tell them to fire a TOW at the tank. So sometimes when in a battle in close it's tough to get around to all your units to tell them exactly what to do. But I suppose that comes with knowing the game a bit better and understanding how to deploy your units properly.

i loved it. im going to dl it

Played through again last night and now that I have an idea of what i'm doing, it is great. Will pick it up today.

^ Yeah its awesome

So its worth dloading the demo to give it a try?

Yep.

lol u drop nukes?

Nope thats clearly the aftermath of eating too much chilli. eek:

beat the SP. fun stuff, but would have liked larger battles...like 50+ tanks/infantry squads to command

I haven't finished SP yet, i'm on the NY mission with the Speznas around the Statue of Liberty, but that 30 second cut scene to open this mission up was worth paying for this game. How amazing was that? Holy shit, that Audioslave song went great with it.

I like controlling just 10-15 units. Easier to move around. When playing games like Total War, there were always units standing around or getting their asses handed to them because I couldn't be everywhere at once.

Fuck i need a better computer.... eek:
