So though i hold some hope for this (yes i know its arcade but if its fun i dont care) will it just be another disaster like mohpa? or will it provide a quality sandbox ww2 game?

Oh looks like another WW2 arcade to be tried singleplayer, get pissed and throw it away half way through it.

My thoughts exactly, i allready know how it would pan out for me, at first i'd be having fun because its new and a welcome break from all the games on my HDD i've played to death, but there's going to be this little nagging voice in the back of my head that says "gee i wish it where only a bit more realistic", and the longer i play, the more the fun starts going away, and the louder and more profane that little nagging voice gets.. at first i just wont be launching the game as often, but its a landslide from there, untill i uninstall it in disgust and never touch it again!

But i am unreasonably hard to please when it comes to games like thease, i admitt that, i love fun arcade stuff, and i love hardcore simulations, but if you mix the two into a semi-real cocktail, it becomes poison to me!

I really don't think the m1928 was wide spread at all in the airborne.
German have stg44 with scope with double magazine attached ,
g43 with scope, c96 , it's going to be fun against the poor american equipment.
The bar is behaving like the stg44 to balance the team so i don't expect the weapons to be realistic.

So funny to play with friends but not a addicted games.

Looks pretty cool...Its a game TWB have been tracking for a year and although the MP community summit held by EA brought up some big issues.
They appear to have either dealt or are dealing with those.

I think the game will come with a release day patch to include some of the community requests for the PC version.

MP really will need more content very very quiclky if they intend to release with just 6 maps.

Remains to be seen though if EA will support this title long term with patches and content.:rolleyes:

Multi-player is gonna be wonderful with six maps and 12 total players max.


Yeah.... marvelous. I'll not be bothered with it. :)

The 12 player max is for the xbox version. There will be a pc dedicated server which should support more players (not sure how many but most guess 24).

If you read the AHZ review you will see that the devs were very keen to respond to the major flaws that the testers brought up which does give a glimpse of hope for future patches.

I think EA knows that they really cant push there luck anymore with crap sequals (especially to moh) without loosing a fook load of profit.
