World in Conflict

Check the last thread on page 1.
 
I'm glad NATO is seperate from America. NATO=Britain=:D
 
I started same thread awhile ago. Anyways, I tried MP beta and it was game like ten years ago :D Realistic 80s units we're kind of fun otherwise it was avarage RTS. It was stupid that you could shoot with Abrams or T-80 tens of time until it destroyed. BMP/Bradley ATGMs were lousy shots. Who had air superiority ruled big time. Hinds and Apaches were killers. Infantry seemed pathetic.

Single player campaign can be fun though, but it doesn't last forever so...doesn't beat Act of War.

Infantry is quite good actually. It's fast and mobile. In the right situation you can easily take out choppers and tanks. you just have to keep moving to avoid napalm strikes, chemical attacks, and daisy cutters. Infantry is also very good at ducking in and out of buildings to keep pressure on the opposing team.
 
Ok, perhaps I didn't play enough to exploit infantry units.
 
Definitely getting it tomorrow. I'm a sucker for games that let me level downtown Seattle in a storm of fire and destruction. :D
 
Tried the demo, not too impressed.
 
Got the game! Love it! :D I'm amazed at the detail they put into downtown Seattle! The King Dome, the Alaska Way Viaduct even that cul-de-sac in front of Union Station with the billboard overlooking it!

I just ordered it from best buy yesterday I should have it within the week. I can wait to play multilayer on a few new maps.
 
Like the idea (reminds me of Red Alert^^), and I've read much good about it. Will get it tomorrow. Just hope my computer can handle it.
 
Somebody who has tested beta and then bought original; tell if they've made any changes regarding gameplay and unit balances. Have to know before I buy it. Beta didn't convencie me at all.

So, how'd destroying Seattle go?
 
The single player mission is fun, but at times the voice acting leaves a little to be desired. Other than on the demo, I haven't tried the multiplayer yet. I'll save that for when I've exhausted the fun from the campaigns.

Hella fun :D The main campaign has you rescuing civilians from the King Dome before it gets leveled by Russian artillery, you escape through a tunnel that leads to I-90 and you blow the I-90 bridge between Bainbridge island and Bellevue.

I really look forward to the map editor though! I want to recreate numerous Seattle locals such as Queen Anne, Boeing Field and the UW. I know a place where you can get decent satellite maps of US cities during the 80's so it shouldn't be difficult replicating places.

Surprisingly multiplayer is great fun! You don't have to worry about setting up infrastructure so you can just concentrate on fighting and airdropping units when you get the points. So far my favorite 'class' is artillery as I can sit back and just pound the enemy into the ground. :D
 
I heard multi is best 5v5 with each player taking a different role.
