I expect videos and reviews (In english please, or at least sub titles...something, please)

Some tips for videos,

NNNOOOOOOOO music pleeeaaaase I can't stress enough how annoying it is when you play your music over the game.

No fancy intros or anything.

Cut out the parts where NOTHING HAPPENS.

use REGISTERED FRAPS, "buy" it if you must.

Post on youtube :yay:

thanks in advance my German friends.

I just saw the xfire feed. So much for the Ai cm precision. There is a still that issue that, you imagine you fight a war, but AI just won't give you that impression. It's gotten that problem since arma. :( (units do not coordinate, vehicles have mind of their own, tanks drive on infantry sometimes, also block their line of sights.) everything is so messed, half time you don't understand whats is going on.

all units are stuck, random walking and running, random laying on the floor, no war feel, especially in urban.

Unfortunately I have to agree. The scenery looks absolutely lovely, but the game play does not seem to have improved a whole lot. The AI's actions were very disappointing to say the least :( Hopefully there are some features (logic modules) that can be activated to improve on that (Dslyecxi has mentioned something to that effect). But based on just what I saw, you are dead on - "You want to immerse yourself in the battlefield action, but the horrendous AI simply would not give you that pleasure".

Oh, and my hat's off to Bert as well! Thank you so much for sharing your early impressions and experiences with us.

Peace,

DreDay

I think you saw that the whole thing was experimental in nature he was just trying different scenarios in the editor to see what happens,trying building destruction, and spending at least 20 minutes trying to figure out how to properly activate the new injury system in the editor :p etc..

unfortunately there are too many things to list, so to that end my question is to the other 200+ people who watched it: didn't somebody say in the chat that he is taking videos of that session and uploading them to youtube before the session ended? i tried to look for them afterwords with no luck? Am I mistaken or what? :confused:

I watched most of it (I went to bed at around 2) and it was more or less exactly what i was expecting it to be. What did the people who are disappointed honestly expect?

Alot of people may have missed this like I did, but I've heard that just playing around in the editor without the game logics to turn the magic on makes it look just like arma.

Request: German players, play the campaign and see if there are improvements.

Also if there is a seasoned german mission creator, please check to see if there is a built in "revive/tag" respawn option. This is something I've been wishing for a very long time.

Thanks!

Just because I am disappointed in the AI does not mean that I'm surprised ;)

The few I read had tested AI without the suppressive fire gamelogic, quite normal they don't see it :p

There are some reports from our community and others, but far less than expected after reading the PCGames article, that the disc throws checksum errors while installing the game. One gamer tried it 15 times before giving up. Others report that they cannot really understand why PCGames called it a bug-disaster and thereby claiming it is unplayable. Because it is said to be playable pretty well, mostly from all first 'hands-on' i've read so far - even in the Gamestar's forums.

Of course - bugs exists! It is not a secret anymore, that there will be a release patch for the Petergames version, but nothing really major that makes the game freezing or stuff. There is no FPS limiter like in ArmA was, thanks to the copyprotection, no significant fps drop near fooliage.

I was shocked first when reading that article, but hey: This time it is not a general bashing that started because of an unplayable game that was released, it is a particular report that seems to stand a little bit alone. However, patch is on its way. Hope it's ready on friday.

Checksum errors mean a damaged/faulty disc. If many people are getting it then there must be something going wrong with the manufacturing process.

The publisher should have a system in place to replace them.
