WW2 online demo

[I Hate Pants]

I've actually been wanting to try this game out for awhile now.

Which team needs help the most? Germans or Allies? I was thinking of joining the Germans.

[xmodum]

Allies need the most help. You see, untill the Americans get in the war with their equipment (maybe half a year till), the germans are gonna win because they have more advanced equipment, and of course, everyone goes for the winning team, so we have limited numbers on our side. CRS should have thought about balance. If your side is down to 4 towns, the entire map resets, and it has done this 18 times so far. Allies have only won about 5-6 of these out of luck.

And this game isnt like other games, so that's why the options arn't in the game.

EDIT: To contact me in-game, type .m xmodum <message> in your chat box...

So be it then...... FOR THE COMMON WEALTH!!!!!!

I kinda figured it would be like WoW where everyone bandwagons onto the good side.

EDIT: I choose to play on the allied side on the official site and when I click "Play Now" nothing happens, and it won't let me play until I choose a side.

You gotta click "play now" in IE. I assume your running firefox.

List of the stuff to come in the next patch, which should come around within the week or so.

My curiosity is piqued, but I have to wonder, how far has the game come since release?

When I played, a few months after launch, the game was a mess. Graphics were terrible, communications was clunky, at best. Numerous physics / geometry problems, like planes flying through the ground to evade AA..

From my experience playing I can tell you all of those are still true. Except for the plane thing. I wasn't able to get a plane far enough off the ground to test that.

Ah, sorry. I only wanted opinions from players competent enough to find the keymap menu without an illustration.

Well, IMO, graphics have come a long way, though, yes compared to other games the graphics are still shit. Geometry and that stuff is fixed, the environment looks better, and instead of the entire ground being flat, with a moutain or two, there are hill, berms, bushs, and other things you can use to get an advantage over the enemy.


Clipping, which is the plane in the ground....is completely impossible now.Trust me, my dad was one of the most famed clippers in the game, clip into a wall as Inf, wait in bunker, kill anything that came near the bunker without them seeing you (You were inside thick walls and shit). They put in numerous programs and stuff to detect and prevent clipping.

And, blowing shit up is more fun. I was 10 feet from a panzer the other day as Inf, about to nade him, and a friendly bomber put a well-placed bomb on him. Parts went flying everywhere, the main turret fell right infront of me.

I'v blown off wings, engines, and many other parts of planes with cannon fire. Hell, I'll be fighting on the ground and random parts of planes will fall near me from the pilots above me fighting.

The chat is pretty much the same, you can type things like .emote salute/laugh/surrender, but that's all I can think of. You can't see yourself do these though, only other players.

Other then CRS adding Destroyer ships into the game (Very fun to use during naval battle, never used one myself, though) that's all I can think of.

You know... that one where the game would rampantly suck?

Even if i need a diagram to find the keybinding menu, I can tell you with 100% certinty that bug has not been fixed.

[xmodum]

If it sucks so much, how come houndreds of people still play it day after day?

And don't say becuase they're dumbasses or something, most people that play this are over 20.

[Infernus]

Oh yeah, its in the big leagues alright.
