It looks very good, but I'm afraid it will end up being a routine of the same actions over and over. Basically supression fire on the enemy, and let the other team flank them. It was like that in that recent game based on a US Army simulator (forgot the name). Just the same trick over and over. Sure, it's probably authentic and how it's being done in real wars, but not fun anymore after a while.

yeah thats what i was thinking,it could end up like full spectrum warrior but with you being an actual player too whereas in fsw you were just a commander,but the developers said you dont have to use flanking etc,you can play it like any other fps

Zumindest in England steht ein Termin für die Demo fest!

So wird das englische Magazin PC Gamer im Rahmen einer exklusiven Review auch eine Demo anbieten! Die Ausgabe erscheint in 4 Wochen, am 3. März 2005!
Allerdings ist noch vollkommen offen, wann die Demo zum Download frei ist oder ob auch deutsche Spielehefte ein Review oder eine Demo anbieten können. Wir werden nachhaken und euch informieren, sollte es etwas neues dazu geben!

FSW seemed really static but BIA seems life like and wtfpwnage.

 

[jimbo118]

Say it all together and it has a nice sound

 

[ray_MAN]

Say it all together and it has a nice sound

It really does. It would explain wh ythe US PCG said that it had another "barnburning exlcusive". I really can't wait! Oh, and about it being repetitive. I heard that the missions are long enough that the AI can learn what tactics you use, making a counter-attack, and then forcing you to change tactics. :E :thumbs:

Theres no a in that sentence

There should of been a comma

I'll play the demo when I get the opprotunity and make my decision then, but I can't help but be a little skeptical. Any game that is designed for the consoles and the PC worry me a bit. Naturally the designers will design for the lowest common denominator, the PS2. You have to. The PC version might get better textures, sounds, etc but the issue remains it was designed with the PS2 in the back of their minds.

Does that mean that this game will outright suck? Not at all. But I approach these titles with extreme trepidation.
