But then again, which game isn't strategy? Dem Hut people be deep.

Heres a game I happened to slip over. I am normally not one for RTS type of games, but this seems pretty interesting. Has anyone tried earlier games in this series? The focus seems to be greatly on realism. http://www.digitalmindsoft.eu/games/men-of-war.html I'm pretty hyped about this.

Hello Japan...

Not to mention the AI occasionally forgetting orders, "Sir, your in my spot", getting stuck, running past enemies, entering unchecked rooms to walk through them etc.

7 hours and 28k to go. This could be close.

A moderator on their forum says the game will be using the 1.60 patch. http://forum.deepsilver.com/forum/showthread.php/61899-PC-Specs

In this day and age, you can easily fly sims like DCS with a very low difficulty setting, but you would be missing the entire point of the sim by doing so. The difference isn't in how easy it can be to fly, but whether theres a entertaining game beyond the simulation part. Sorry about the offtopic.

Its a good thread title though.

I think it should ideally serve a purpose. In RO that purpose is to let you stab someone.

The Take On beta required Arma 2, and the patch was just a patch. I think people preordering physical disks should be included as well in the alpha/beta as well if possible. Sprocket is a very good service, and my preferred way to buy BI games, but if people don't want to buy from this shop, then I guess you could make a case that using beta access to push them into using it is wrong.

A small feature: http://www.computerandvideogames.com/335344/features/the-25-best-pc-games-of-2012/

It plays very differently without the fog of war. Instead of setting your squad up to carefully cover all directions, you will send them ahead to take down the enemy. I don't know if you can turn the fog on like in the original, but for now it plays more like a puzzle-game than a tactical game.

Load up Winter Kolgujev in editor and return to main menu for a nice christmas tale :) Thanks for an awesome release!

Perhaps including helicopters would leave them exposed when they are hiding behind trees, buildings etc? I'm just trying to wrap my head around this.

These look good, its fun to see the Arma universe in this form.

DLC Isn't that terrible, though there are good and bad ways to do it. (And the industry needs time to figure it out) Games today have a much better value for the customer than it did 10 years ago. The prices largely stay the same, while making games to a competitive standard is requiring bigger teams every year.

I guess he means hiking trails. This would perhaps be more noticeable if there was more detailed microterrain, as long as its just a sticker without grass on it(like roads), or it doesn't offer a speed advantage because you don't have to step through vegetation, it doesn't matter much to me.

Its just standard gaming BS from people who do not understand video games. The ambulance scene is borderline hilarious, which addon did that tank come from? Please understand that the Red Cross is a worldwide organization, that does a lot of different things. Were not all crazy.

I was thinking about that too. Perhaps the Cryengine Sim has made them shift priorities?

I think previous soldiers has had non-functional sidearms models on the hip before.

Apparently VR Isn't dead.

Thats interesting. Seems like a bit of a dig on the .

I see a Top Gear race coming, "How hard can it be?"

Flight model as in how the helicopter handles in the sky, not the visual 3D model of the helicopter. If that was your meaning.
