Call of Juarez Screenshots

English language demo incoming

You dont need to press any buttons just move the crosshair with the mouse and press fire when ur ready.

What the hell do you do at the end of the preacher level when you walk up to a guy, then a timer starts, then you can't freaking pull out your guns? Do you just sit there and dodge the bullets like an idiot or what?

I like just about everything better than Gun in this demo except for the horse riding. Gun seemed to nail the feel perfectly while CoJ feels a bit stiff. The other thing I preferred in Gun was the use of bullet time....I'd rather control it myself via a seperate control rather than have it come on involuntarily when I use certain weapons.

I'll definitely be buying this.

OK just spent some time with the demo (beat the first stage, then died in the second after spending a bunch of time figuring out how to get the damn horse). Here's some notes.

* No blood - stupid German demo.
* For some reason, you can't attack dead bodies. I hope this is just more of the German censorship.

* The game has a mighty boot! (press 'C' to kick, it only works with the preacher).
* Guns can overheat (the barrel stars smoking) and even explode.
* To use bullet-time, put both guns away (press 1 then 2) then press either attack button. There doesn't seem to be any limit on how much you can use this.
* When using akimbo weapons, each weapon has its own fire key.
* Press Z to activate the alt-fire, where you smack on the revolver's hammer for faster firing.
* One of your weapons is a bible, I have no idea WTF it does (aside from recite German gibberish). It's still kind of cool holding a bible in one hand and a gun in the other.
*{y}* Besides the bible, I've only seen three different weapons so far. A regular pistol, a quick-reload pistol, and a whip (which you can attach to trees with alt-fire - I don't know why).
* Lots of physics objects to pick up. Also, if you pick up a chair, you can swing it as a weapon.

* Long ass load times, it took 3-4 minutes for the first stage to load.
* The game ran rather chunky for me (2100+, 1GB, 6800). I kind of expected this.

* Enemies seem reasonably smart - they even take cover behind physics objects that have been moved.
* Both you and your enemies can lean.
* Of the two levels in the demo, one seems to be straight ahead action, while the other is more stealth oriented (at least it is at the start where you have to steal a horse).

Overall, it seems OK (2.75/5 stars or something), but I'm going to go back and play some more before making any real judgment.

I would ahve to say this game is visually polished and the control scheme works out perfectly. The difficulty is definatly there. Perhaps we will finally have a good western fps. Gun was ok but meh.

Does the pistols have sandalwood grips?

I like the way to can see your own body if you look down, but for somereason it looks like Ray forgot to belt up his trousers.

"I hope your fingers aren't tickling my ivory-handled Colt. Stand up real slow and you just might live through this night."

is this coming to 360?

Sweet, there's a demo. Gonna download it and see if it's any good.

loosely based on the movie: http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0418294/

german demo? when do we get english? is there really any need to understand the dialogue (sp?) or can i just run around and shoot?

*waits for the brokeback jokes*

How do you initiate the bullet time thing?

I really liked the second mission. It's much larger than the first and you get to ride horses. It's also pretty damn hard because there are Apache camp everywhere and they kill you very fast. Good thing you can own them from the bushes with a Remington. That's a sweet sniping weapon.

just a question regarding Fileshack - where did the Euro mirrors go? Despite of a 2Mbit connection the most I now get out of US fileshack mirrors is 100 KB/s, at least from the London mirror I sometimes got 250-300 KB/s (still not as much as I'm expecting, but meh, doesn't matter for stuff < 1gig)...

I jumped in the water for a nice swim and I died :(

this game looks badass. i hope westerns are the next WW2

Oh fucking sweet! Los geht's!

these screens look more "crisp" than the earlier ones. i'd rather the gameplay be there instead of perfect graphics anyways tho. although, did you see the video of the waterfall? that looked like shit.
