[size=-4]Sorry if this is a re-post but i searched the forum for about 5 minutes looking for a thread on the demo.[/size]

"PC demo's due for Friday. It'll contain both singleplayer and multiplayer"

http://kotaku.com/gaming/pc-in-conflict/world-in-conflict-pc-demo-hits-friday-291980.php

btw, song in the trailer is Audioslave - "Shadow on the Sun"

Not sure where to download the demo, fileplanet perhaps?

Still trying to decide if i should buy this game. I have it preordered but i dont know, didnt like the mp when playing the beta. The sp looks interesting tho.
 
The multiplayer isn't interesting, but the singleplayer looks like it could tell a pretty nice story. Singleplayer is worth it.
 
SP better than the MP? That has to be a first for a RTS game.
 
More info on the demo. http://forums.vugames.com/thread.jspa?threadID=53257&tstart=0

Game looks interesting...on which site is this demo going to be hosted?
 
woooo i cant wait. the world in conflict beta was loads of fun.
 
I felt that the beta was very underwhelming for me. Then again I'm not a huge fan of RTS except the Blizzard franchises and AoE.
 
That trailer gave me the chills. Will download demo overnight.
 
Downloading this demo as we speak. From what i've heard it could be fantastic. Although, i'm not one for RTS, but i did love company of heroes, and this looks a little different to your standard RTS fare.
 
gameplay movies did NOT impress me
i'm downloading the demo nontheless
give it a chance :p
 
The single player will be amazing, I hope. The story should be good and of course USA beating the USSR. I really want to know how the USSR launches a land invasion on US soil. Surly that would require allot of boats and allot of stealth.
 
I just played the demo, and have to say, that this game proves once again that us Swedes CAN make OUTSTANDING games!
 
I havent actually played the Single Player mission yet, only a few online matches and a skirmish in MP vs bots(Which btw are quite competent!), but I enjoy it, if I cba to play SP later I will give you more info on that..

MP was mostly one sided as their was no skill balancing system in place, hoping they will change this problem
 
Man, too many games. I haven't even installed Bioshock yet.
 
Singleplayer ****ing rocks! You really feel the pressure and you're faced with tough decisions and secondary objectives. This is a really hard RTS and a really good one!
 
ya im enjoying this game alot. its not repeatative and you cant just blow away the other team like other rts's do.

QFT. I really can't wait for the full game.

However I hope they detail how the soviets got to the USA. The demo single player didn't make any sense to me anyway. First you see a cut scene on where the USSR is unloading the ships and then to the first single player the Soviets are in Seattle and are expanding from there somehow.

I believe that the demo mission is not the first campaign mission, especially considering it had lines like "4 days after the invasion" and "blowing up the bridge actually slowed the Russians down. For a while."

So expect a mission involving blowing up a bridge before the one featured in the demo during the actual campaign.

I also note that we're again playing as an officer called "Parker", a nod to Ground Control, I suspect.

Oh, and yes, it does indeed ****ing rock!

MP is great fun and seems better balanced out than it was.
 
If i remember correct its Mission nr. 3 we are playing in the demo.. But god damn this game rocks. I just love the pressure your under.

Im sure as hell is going to buy this game :D

AFAIK the Warsaw Pact had military plans that were to be put into action, were WW3 to commence, regarding invading Alaska via the Bering Sea, ofcourse that after they had gotten a decent foothold in Western Europe.

But it doesn't seem like that they did that in the game, at least at the start. Launch an attack on Europe and then some time after probably like a couple of weeks when the US army is in Europe an amphibious invasion of the USA. I wonder if its just the USSR? What about China? Surly they would be involved somehow.

Well, I doubt they at that time period would have allied themselves with neither the Warsaw Pact nor the US, lets not forget the Sino-Soviet border confrontations that resulted in many deaths on both sides during the 70s.. Their relationships took quite a bit of damage from that 'incident'.

Downloading now. Anyone up for a couple of MP rounds later on?
 
I just noticed one thing, on very high settings, the game freezes before one round completes, on high, before two, on three, before 4th.. It's like there's a memory leak in the game or something.. Hope this gets fixed before release..

Why not, should be good fun.

I have this weird thing: when playing anything other than the tutorial I get a black haze on the ground. It?s not fog of war because it stays when I land my units.

Only online MP? I never had this when playing skirmish.

Maybe a driver issue? That's strange that it fine in the tutorial. You could try changing some setting? I need to og find a fan site forum or the official ones.
 
havent played MP yet, get this specifically on skirmish..
 
I just downloaded and played for a bit, but my computer decided to reboot when playing the campaign map. Seemed quite fun though, loved the explosions!
