Stand down from this one Toad, I could almost have wrote tardcases response, and knew hed miss my entire point. I thought it would be quick, but didnt know hed be waiting on it like a organ donor. Im about 7 minutes behind. (I did enjoy the sobbing cynical newbie cant play, neither will you sarcastic touch I couldnt have hoped for any more)
TC, I shouldnt have downloaded anything. I bought the first disk long ago, and smashed it, reasons apparent, no need to rehash. But this was a Dec 24th store copy.
So lets go from a new users standpoint, and not consider Im not completely retarded and have played sims for 13 years, but still a buyer that would be attracted to the boxed $14.95 Reader Choice Edition of WWIIOL.
I should have know to d/l the full install from the D/L page. That cd is a least 4 update behind.?
Really? You explain that to the buyers of that new disk, no sense me pointing out how ridiculous that is.
I could have lengthened my post to explain that a newbie WOULD be completely miffed, and I was, and that left a lot to be desired to keeping a players interest, at the critical stage of introducing a game. A pay to play game at that. But I left that out just so you could point out WWIIOL misses the mark entirely in this aspect. Its kinda the point.
And we wont argue graphics, your opinion just doesnt correlate with mine, which is fine. Ill have fun with BF1942 other than its aircraft section, because regardless of complexity, it delivers interface thats fun, user friendly, and intuitive. Aside from the toejam samich graphics, WWIIOL with that going for it might be terrific. What a concept.
