WW2 online
« on: May 25, 2011, 05:04:43 PM »
Anyone play this game and what do you think of it?
Been looking for a good online world war game since leaving ah and this one looked nice and the youtube clips of the air war looked great but me and two friends have downloaded it but cant get it to run.
Just get crashes to desktop before even getting into game. Is it still working or did it die? Any thoughts on the game?

it's a better first person shooter than a flight sim...the flight models aren't worth a poop. and you have to achieve certain levels before you can use certain equipment...individuals don't do too well, need a team to really accomplish anything...you will spend more time waiting around to get into a fight than you will fighting.

 It was awesome years ago before the brigade stuff. Other players dictating gameplay didnt work for me.

I played it for a little bit but just found it terribly frustrating and my computer which handles AH alright was getting around 10FPS at times. It just seemed more trouble than it was worth, not to mention getting stuck in a Spanish speaking squad.
No thank you Turkish, I'm sweet enough.

Your passive aggressiveness is very amusing. 

You want to show us how you're sticking to your guns when you quit and shoving it to the "Man" by coming here and asking about how to get a competitor's game running and what are our "opinions" of the game are. 

Our opinions are not what you're seeking or actually any help at all to get the game to run, it's just a passive aggressive attempt at thumbing your nose at HTC.

I once went to a Hospitols website asking about the brakes on my truck. They were no help either.

Well seems everyone agree it sucks lol. Thanks for the input.  Glad I still amuse you ack. I expected nothing less from you. No idea what your trying to start but I don't care either. I came here becouse I still have friends here and value other gamers op.on war games. I don't expect you to get that but troll away like normal.

Yep... at least in Aces High they can use CAPS, repeat everything twice, repeat everything twice, use L0T$ 0f str@ang3 ch@ract3r$, but we can laugh or ignore them.   :aok

Some guy wrote an awesome combat journal a few years ago detailing his trek from first entering the arena to sneaking deep into enemy territory.

You forgot to mention their damage modeling, which IMO beats any game, even AH. Have you even played it in the past few months, it has gotten a TOTAL over haul in the graphics department. Makes AH look like a piece of doo doo on the bottom of my shoe. The FPS part is bar-none the most realistic fighting you will ever encounter in a game, the tank battles are amazing, and even naval warfare.

Try again.

wow...just wow.


so if i came in here asking people what they thought of the corsair&zero fighting in battlefield 1943, is that "just a passive aggressive attempt at thumbing my nose at HTC" because it has planes&CV&tanks in it?


or what about warhawk? because you can fly in it.


or battlefield 1942?


only thing amusing ack is how you took a guy posting a nice question about a game he enjoys as some rebellion against HTC.


i guess everyone who posts about WOT is rebelling against HTC too right?


go overreact in there posts  :rolleyes:

Their canned damaged model? Where a panhard trolls along happily because an 88 shell that would normally liquefy the crew didn't hit any of the 'critical' component hitboxes as it sailed through? Or the spits that chug along happily after an 88 has passed through just behind the cockpit?

As for the graphics, is it still a 2 mile visibility 'bubble' for air to air where you can't even cap properly because you can't see all the way to the ground from 10k?

And how are the guys who speedhack infantry, has CRS dealt to them yet or still fluffing around with their finger up their piehole?
