I just DLed the demo and its pretty cool. Its really weird though, the game is sorta like a third person strategy game but its really interesting. Graphics are awesome too.
Any xbox owners play this game? I heard that their was only CO-OP on live, is it fun?
I'm thinking about buying this game when it comes out for the PC.

It's an excellent, EXCELLENT game. I played it from beginning to end on the Xbox via Xbox Live with a friend. I controlled Team Alpha, he controlled Team Beta. We coordinated fire control over the headset - amazing gameplay experience. Yes, you can only play FSW cooperatively over Xbox Live.

The problem is in longevity. It's got 11 missions and as such is really short.

Man, the demo is buggy as hell. It always gets stuck at one point or the other and I can't get through it... the reply feature is pretty cool, I like hearing the soldiers talk as chipmunks when I fastforward.... lol.

I had it on XBOX (traded it in to alleviate cash flow problems for Madden I believe). Great game. It's definitely different than anything else you've played.

I had it also on xbox, and it was fantastic... except for the fact that it ended after only 11 fairly short missions. There's absolutely no replay value. None.

I didn't have any problems with the demo, I saw a few minor glitches, but nothing frustrating.

The game looks great, something quite different than anything we've seen. I went through all the trainging and it got too late to play any real stuff, but I will definately play some tonight.

Too bad some of you say this game is too short, maybe with the PC version, we can see some mods.

Yea, I have it on Realistic setting, and so when 2 of my guys go down, it fades to gray and then I have to watch everything all in FF again.... argh, since I am at the point of takin out the nests, it's a long FF......

Plus, how does the medic heal my 1 injured guy?? I brought him to the aid station just outside the nest area, but I can't get anyone to realize the medic will heal them!

Plz advise!!!!!
Thx

dammit, here's why... that sure is some crappy documentation on their part... from gamespot

This version of the game also offers an "authentic" difficulty setting, a hidden feature on the Xbox that makes the game extremely difficult by removing mission save points and most aspects of the heads-up display.

Game needs a patch. I got it trying to play the mout training. Every single time it locks up and computer needs restarting. Could be cause I got an ATI card. Since game was an xbox one.
I run my stuffs without overclocking so it's not that. Haven't tried any missions yet have a feeling it'll freeze on me.
