WW2 online demo

[xmodum]

Just image having those moments with a group of friends all on TS in one group of aircraft. It's magical

Too bad you went german, the allies need help, and the gremans basicly have this war handed to them untill the Americans enter the war and we get Mustangs and shit like that, then it'll be great...the battlefield might actually be equal for once...

[Jaged]

Problem is I couldnt find a fight or get any of the vehicles to move. All I could get to work was the rifleman. So I basicly ran around in a field for a half hour until I got close to some action and was sniped before I got close to anything interesting, got pissed and gave up.

a. How do you find a good battle?
b. How do you drive the damn tanks?

[xmodum]

I'v been playing for so long with a joystick, I forgot how to without one. If you dont have one then you're in trouble. But you can go to the "Keymapper" when you click on "Crew/Equip", its about 3-4 buttons down, go in there and fix everything.

To find a battle, Go to friendly towns that have Red blinking troop symbols or tanks/aircraft, those will have the most action. And get one where the town Icon looks like a crossheirs, those mean that your High Command (Actual players, sorta like CR5 but you dont earn it by kills, you have to take a hard-ass test to become a High command officer) has classified that town as a primary objective. You should be able to check out what the symbols mean on the bottom of the map screen.

EDIT: Just got the icons for you-
Crossheirs with green arrows going ******d - Defend
Crossheirs with red arrows going inward - Attack
Explosion looking one - Under Attack
Radio Tower - Overrun (Enemies everywhere, you can't spawn without dying usually)
White Flag - Fallback
Shield - Hold at all costs

Note that I play for the Allies mostly as French ground forces.

Why this game sucks:

Jagedbbs: first of all
Jagedbbs: NO JUMP BUTTON
V1p3r1337: lol
Jagedbbs: everything is all orange and flashy and bugging out
Jagedbbs: it is easier to walk through vehicles then enter them
Jagedbbs: same thing with ladders
Jagedbbs: i couldnt figure out how to climb one
Jagedbbs: so i just walked through the wall it was on
Jagedbbs: and the battles are hard to find
Jagedbbs: so you end up getting sniped half the time while running through a boring field looking for something to shoot
Jagedbbs: and for the life of me I cant get any vehicles to move
Jagedbbs: i could however get a plane to literaly spin in circles at 50mph like a top while sitting on the runway
Jagedbbs: i couldnt even get the engine to start on the tank
V1p3r1337: lol awesome
Jagedbbs: i cant even find the options menu
Jagedbbs: there isnt one as far as i can tell
Jagedbbs: no documentation of the controlls i saw
V1p3r1337: ha
Jagedbbs: and the graphics are ugly as satans ball sack
V1p3r1337: o.O

I pressed every button I could find on my keyboard....

[xmodum]

This game isn't a "jump in and know everything" type of game....
My dad has been playing since launch, and he still can't even use most of the equipment in the game (To gain access to more equipment, you gain rank, to gain rank you have to complete missions by getting at least one kill in your mission and you have to have been out there for 10 minutes before despawning)

you have to have an incredibly ammount of patience with this game, unlike any other, sometimes you ahve to wait 2 hours in a base for the fight to come.

How hard can it be to make a set of controlls for the vehicles that dosen't require a phd to figure out?

[xmodum]

Last time I checked the keymapper, it was'nt that hard to understand.

And another thing, about the jump button, they don't have that so Enemy Infantry cannot jump into friendly spawns and spawn camp us like little bitches. Each spawn has a little section in the stairs at the bottom taken off, so you can go down, but not up.

[Jaged]

If I can mess with the controlls for a tank for 5 min and not even get the engine to start, then its much more difficult then it needs to be.

I understand not being able to fly a plane. Flight sims usualy require looking at the key bindings to understand how to take off. The only problem is that there dosent seem to be any key bindings or ways of changing the controlls. THe options menu wich is cleverly hidden outside of the game to make it a pain in the ass to find dosent include a key binding section.

Thank you Frag. If you would have read one of my earlier post in repsonse to you asking how to control a tank, I told you where the keymapper was, I guess you need pictures to figure stuff out though.

Well, bearing in mind that it's also the same key to start the engine (or engines - as is the case with one of the British tanks) as it is to start an aircrafts engine(s), I don't see what the problem is, other than ignorance or stupidity.

I'm trying to host some good pics for you guys, some real good eye candy for yaz, gimmie a couple min. I have pictures of my dad on a british Freighter, with 4 tanks aboard and about 30 friend;y infantry running around, my dad took ground photos of them and shit, he got alot. And I have some pics of what I do just about everyday with my squad, tank assaults and shit.

[Jaged]

Yeah, I found the keymapper shortly after I posted that. My bad. Game still blows though.

Why couldnt they just put an options menu in game with the keymappings in that like every other game does?
