6 HOLD YOUR FIRE
*Runs over his squad with the shitty tank*
No joke, shitty is an understatement. I was falling down a mountain for a full 2 minutes because the tanks they give you arent strong enough to counter fall/go back up the mountain

I read a review of this in a british pc mag. Pretty positive review alround got 90%. However they said "beware, this is the singlemost buggy , un polished game we have ever reviewed, this makes Ultima 9 looks finished."

Hopefully they were reviewing unfinished code, but they usual state so if thats the case.

One word: freedom. We wanted to make a game not done before, something special, a game with lots of freedom. You want to drive a jeep? Well, go drive a jeep! You want to fire a rocket launcher? Take one! You want to control a heli? Get in and fly to your destination! Tell me, how many clones there are from Quake and other look-a-likes? Bah, it's all the same! We wanted to do something special, I think it worked out.

this is one reason why i like this game :)
many people complain because its not CS or quake

oh well, its fun i like it, i'll be buying it

I think you have to look at this game as a simulation, and not an FPS...otherwise you don't really do it justice. It isn't Quake or CS or UT or whatever, because it isn't meant to be. Personally I prefer to play Quake or UT to this; but as a simulation it's pretty damn cool and I'll probably buy it. If your a sim buff, I think this is to ground pounders what RedBaron and Falcon3.0 were to flight jockeys (yeah, I still play RedBaron).

Played it. Basicly it boils down to this: if you like very slow gameplay [controls, movement and such tend to take too damn long], get shot in two shot withough being able to aim well. And if you like fugly graphics [sprites etc], then this game is perfect for you.

For me it's back to CS though. Even with the cheaters it's just more fun.
