Omaha is TOTALLY scripted

Firstly, i have the game on pre-order, but I downloaded it because I wanted to play it now.

Any way, I'm afraid to say that our fears have been confirmed in that the Omaha SP level is 100% scripted. I.e, the same troops die every time, the shells land in the same places, people die in the same place...

For example - when you first dis-embark the higgens boat, and your captain is telling you to get off the beach, you can stand right behind him and the 2 people he is with, and the mg42 bullets magically go THROUGH them and hit you...because they're not supposed to die yet. That sucks

The level is still really run to play though , and certainly something to show people who aren't familiar with PC games but have seen SPR or something

Just could have been better...hopefully they'll be lots of omaha mods with totally random gameplay and things..

anyone who does this much testing on a level either sucks to bad to finish it or is just a masacist.

i was using the god mode to test things out...what's wrong with that?

I *might* be wrong about the shells landing in the same place, but I think the fact that you can be behind soldiers and still get shot without them dying is really bad

Mange only so you know, the omaha beach level in mp is not the same as the sp , its smaller.

The question is if you would rather have a so-so, non-scripted map that you can play 3 times or fantastic map that is heavily scripted and is a blast the first time through. I, personally, would choose the second one.

true...but with 32 people on there blasting away at each other...well, you know...

the omaha mp level is almost as big really...it's pretty huge say compared to day of defeat.
