Right, I’ll leave the news page to have all the vids and such.
My main fear is not that the game will be bad. But that members won’t get on with it as they won’t be used to such large open maps, especially after play a fair bit of COD4 recently.
But like I have said if there’s a problem it can be solved with the map editor. It won’t happen instantly but give us some time and we will have any scale of war/combat we want.
Give it even more time and the mod makers will kick in and u can pretty much get any unit u want as well.
My only other slight fear is that clan matches will be on a large scale. On the other hand BF2 shows even a large war game can have small clan matches. So it remains only a small fear.
I think this is what we have been w8ing for as it’s a game that pretty much opened up a forum and asked the ppl what they want. None of this sniping with a sub machine gun thru walls and running at the speed of light that u get in cod4.
from all the maps, they all look massive, which is not good.
btw if u get the game from http://www.thehut.com this weekend on pre-order u get it for £17 delivered.
theres suppose to be a demo coming out the day before the release.
im just waiting on a leaked copy appearing on the net to try it out first.

King, if your looking for a RVS replacement you will be disapointed. The Map on this Like the 1st one are more like BF2 scale. It is a sandbox style game based over entire islands of such scale that it is not possible to navigate the island in any short time.
The SP on the 1st was partly mission based and involved going in a squad from town to town and completing missions which had an impact on the larger war.
I think in terms of MP we will be in a squad and be up against another squad probably in a town 3-4 minutes away on foot. Battle will take place in small towns or in the fields and forests which connect the towns.
The more i think about it , it may well be worth seeing if we can find a copy of the 1st one to download and play online again just to get an idea.

bearing in mind there was only about 2 bildings u could go in on the original 1. this is misstion edited map. 5 on 5 i think it used to be. also had bouth respawn and elmination.
i rember playing this map atchaly used to hid arnd the outscerts where the trucks are.
Well it is an awesome game. Tactical but quite series, and a nice challenge. It definitely is more a simulator rather than a fps. My only qualms is that changing weapon is quite slow and things like grenades and knife aren’t readily available like cod witch I would prefer.
Well me and a friend tried to do coop and spent about 1 ½ hours trying to get it to work and gave up. The menus take ages to do anything u can’t connect to any1 and the few servers u can c when u get to the lobby’s u can’t connect to. Looking down the 20 odd servers I could c there was only 1 player in each…
Multiplayer just doesn’t work. How they even realised it in this condition I don’t know. I’m sure the playability is there if u can play but it’s just getting there.
i know it would be soooooooooooo good as a clan game as well. so tatical and its back to the days when u know a shot was a gr8 shot unlike cod where u can snipe with a p90.
