Faces of War demo

Imagine that:

CoH + Fow = best RTS ever

Combined they would be like a super rts lol


The good thing about CoH is the huge community, there are already a lot of mods in the work.

I've got the Radeon 9250 256mb, a 2.6ghz processor, and 1gb of RAM...but the game runs horrendously in MP demo, though it ran fine in the singleplayer, and when I play *alone* in LAN and blow up terrain and stuff it's fine.

There's gotta be a netcode problem or something. I joined games where the pings were anywhere from 56-148ms.

I have the same problems Lionel, most MP games i have are unplayble but single player seems to be better, still tho i get lag in it sometimes and alot of it.

FoW is not something you would call "optimized". CoH an the other hand is very optimized, that's why I want to combine them ;D

 

[King Ragnar]

Yeh i know it isnt Optimized at all, im actually very dissapointed with the release, it seemed so perfect the game but its laggy, multiplayer is unplayable for me at least, single player lags there are way too many bugs, it might as well have beent a beta release, i just pray to god the patch fixes things.

I really can't wait for the patch and hope it fixes the problems.

I've been playing the single player and I have no real interest in it due to the voice acting that sounds like an 18 year old guy trying to sound cool (Russian campaign) or the bad English and also because of what seems to be a memory leak that causes the missions to slow to a FPS crawl about 5-10 minutes in.

The multiplayer is what really drew me in. The whole idea of defending/breaching in the Frontline game using tanks/artillery/trenches/mines etc was awesome, even through the lag. However the lag makes it extremely hard for me to play (can't really use direct control in the lag) and nets me unnecessary losses.

I found it "laggy" but it was probably just a low framerate when playing online

after I turned everything down, especially the view distance, it became much smoother and I averaged 35 fps

 

[Zoring]

I got it and love it (multiplayer blows every rts out of the water) It's definitly a quirky game, and once you first pick it up (espescially without playing SHOWW2) you will be like wtf! But perserve it's great.

Some incredible moments to be had, best most immersive battles ive seen in ages.

geforce 4 mx dont run it. damned 6600 burning out!! oh well. i refuse to not be able to play this game - ima get a new card asap

 

[King Ragnar]

By The Way the patch has finnaly been released and on the ubi forums many people are saying that all the lag is fixed and shizzle, im still downloading at the minute tho and will see if its fixed and report back
