Tactics RO 2 and BIA series

[C_Gibby]

no they are the publisher of the game in europe

Publisher = the ones who finance the copies produced and sold
they also do marketing

coding or development wise 1C hasnt got anything to do with HoS

I thought TWI published games as well?

For now TWI only publishes games in the US. They use iceberg interactive and 1C for the rest.

MoH airborne (same engine) made me think of what HoS might look like once i played the factory level.

not necessarily, if you remember that frogster kinda did no marketing for RO:O in germany. hell, they didn't know **** about it when I presented it to the german games mags for them. when I did it, the guy who should care about the community has seen it for the first time

BiA had a nice idea in mind when they tried implementing more fire&manuever tactics, but it was never implemented fully. It was always either too linear (forcing you into preset flanking routes), the enemy was too stupid to react to being flanked, or precision shooting would be the easiest route (ala Hell's Highway)

I want a game that forces me to adapt and improvise on every level, and as much as I like the BiA games (for the story), I don't want to feel forced in the way I fight battles

My main complaint about BiA was the tremendous cone fire. Sure it made you rely on fire and maneuver, but I found it frustrating that I couldn't hit the side of a barn with a gun.

I think better AI would have balanced things out, so a smaller cone fire could have been implemented.

 

[<animal>INSTINCT]

If you played Hell's Highway, they greatly improved the accuracy of the guns so there was much less issue with the cone of fire, but they made it such that it was too easy to pick off the enemy if you were behind cover since the enemy picked a cover spot, stayed there, and always popped his head out the same way.

Well that, and that whole red blurring effect was just retarded, in the 3rd person cover system, you would actually see bullets go right thru your avatar without hurting him because 'oh you aren't being shot at enough to be hit'

 

[Roflrocket]

I rather liked the command system in BiA hells highway. I wouldn't mind if it was implemented into RO2 to some degree.

I'm glad I'm not the only BIA fan in here. Hell's Highway was awesome but I had to stop purchasing there due to $$$.

I'm stoked for the release

RO 2>RO 1>BiA

Yes RO 2 is better.
but in the gameplay fews things in BIA are good to be found again in RO 2...
