i still think the ground units need some work. compared to a game like day of defeat, the hit points/damage model/aim is sheeit.

B17 looks like crap to me. The graphics in this game could use help.

I hope this game plays as well as DOD, which is the best WW2 game for me.

Edit: looked at the rest of the pics, and graphics look ok, not great, but the B17 looks terrible, for some reason.

Screw graphics (in a game like this)...gameplay is where it's at.

Tribes had some pretty subpar graphics, but it was the awesome online gameplay which made it a stellar hit.

am i the only one that didn't like this game?

i mean the concept was great an all, but like somebody said, holy hell the aim system sucks

i mean it has more potential than DoD, but aiming and shiz on battlefield sucks the big one. i consider myself to be an "above average" fps player, and i couldn't kill a single freaking thing in battlefield when i was playing infantry. the only kills i got where when i hopped into a tank and blew shiz up

Ya I thought the aim system sucked. I couldn't hit anything with the regular guns either. If the person was coming at me or walking slowly i could hit them with the engineer gun and occasionally the sniper rifle. But when I got in the Sherman take, look out, I ripped people apart.

If only they had ground fighting like DOD, vehicle fighting like OFP, and maybe more weapons. It makes me sad that they don't have any M1 Garands, which, IMO, should've been used instead of the default BAR. I mean, the BAR is a support weapon, the M1 was more prevalent among groundpounders. Also, an M1 Carbine would be nice for the engineer. Another beef (last one, i promise) is that you're a sitting duck while manning the MG on a tank. At the very least, they should have the ability to close the top hatch and hide in the tank.

Edit for the post above ^^^: I can't hit ANYTHING with the coax MG on the sherman :( could be my 15 FPS.

This game has a lot of potential. However the graphics are at least a year old for an fps, but decent for a flight sim. More balance or LOD tweaking needs to be done on this. The aiming/hitbox is horrid. I think I killed 1 person with the sniper rifle before I gave up on it. I won't be buying it if the aim isn't improved.

Some of you guys are forgetting this is the demo we've been playing.

While the graphics would take a lot more time to work on (I actually think they look fine), the collision box calculations, historical prevelance and purpose of weapons and support vehicles and the feedback from hits would only take some minor tweaking.

I have never played much online, but this game has me literally addicted.
