Veteran settings are ok. 2 hits usually kills ya.

the kar is badass, the Fug isnt that good, mp40 sux like it should, the thompson is cool, the carbine is accurrate. the 45 is deadly, the ruger is crap.

Grenade tossing is strange in the animation but they arent the hand helds tactical nukes like in DoD.

"perhaps a little too much like MOHAA. Needs a realistic mode (more like DOD)"

Played this at E3 - for those who aren't familiar with the backroom politics - these guys were origional design team for MOHAA when EA shafted them after release.

From the gameplay - its a lot more immersive then MOHAA - but still has much of the linear gameplay.

Red Orchestra is going to be the DoD killer, until they release DoD 2.0 using the HL2 engine.

I liked the AI.. the germans I felt used cover very well (how much was scripted?) and often ran to behind cover when caught out of the open...

It looks like the AI is scripted just as much as the AI was scripted in MOH. again no suprise since most of the guys working on CoD worked on MOH.

Ack-Ack,

I had never heard of Red Orchestra . I looked it up and it looks pretty darn impressive. Thanks for mentioning it. I can never get enough quality WWII games.

RO looks pretty promising, but what game are they modding? UT2004? Im not big on the Unreal games, but Ive never heard of UT2004.

Reading forums now... (yes work is slow)

Red Ochestra looks amazing.

UT2003 came out earlier this year (last year?). I guess the next installment is on its way.

I like how they have included iron sights. IMO, the shooting from the hip should mean just that - no cross hairs at all.

Like Vietcong, no crosshairs..only ironsights

I liked this game very much and I will buy the game when it comes out!
I think one of the coolest things it the fact when you get up close to a enemy you can Malee with him an go for a silet kill!

What is DoD?

Westy · « **Reply #41 on:** September 03, 2003, 01:34:22 PM »

Hiya Aztec. DoD is "Day of Defeat." A fantastic WWII infantry "mod" that you install onto of Sierra's "Half Life" game. It's getting a bit long in the tooth and when Half Life II comes out there will supposedly be a new DoD version too.

They're modding UT2003 which will carry over to UT2004 when it's released later on this winter.

Here's another WW2 themed online first person shooter. Like Red Orchestra, it's also for UT2003/2004.

Path to Victory
