you must be lucky when it comes to public servers and the quality/maturity of the players in it. That is a treat and blind luck for me, the rest of the time it's filled with people that cant count or wont switch when asked (and politely, mind you)

I was loving Battle of Britain for the first few weeks it was out until everyone realized it's more fun to be the Axis and teams were always unbalanced like you said. And then the guys who liked to obstruct their axis teamates by using vehicles and whatever else they could to block planes really ruined the fun for me (although that did get me to join allied almost every game )

I haven't played a flight sim in about six years but this one looks like the one to get me back into it. Are the pedals really necessary for it to be good?

I thought BF1942 already had an official editor

Yea, it does, that #5 wasn't up to date

"If they didn't suck at there job's then Ritualistic would have fired someone else, they were the weakest link, so to speak."

Nope, I gotta disagree with that. Office politics and many other factors enter into it and sometimes stand out more than a developer's talent.

Thanks for the heads up Blue et al. I had decided last week was going to be the last Sopranos I wasted my time on, but there has been a buzz about this episode here and on the radio, so I'll have to tune in tomorrow (Tuesday nights in Canada)

As long as they do a decent job of it

TA was always my favourite RTS, but I'm not a RTS connoisseur...

You can already play quake on a handheld..but I don't know if it can only be single player. The 56k modem and the slow cpu wouldn't make it fun though.

Not to mention the multiplayer goodness is pale in comparison.

Go back to VE #12, you freak!

Seriously though, it's pretty obvious what a few of the people on this thread have said about companies paying to be on the list. It's not worth our attention..even though we keep talking about it

screen is red, then black... then still black... then still black... Ok, wheres the button mapped to respawn or exit... I HIT EVERY SINGLE KEY ON MY KEYBOARD... NOTHING... have to resort to killing the program (alt-ctrl-del)

I seem to recall from playing the retail that it was ctrl-enter or something like that to get back into the theatre select screen. It was a long time ago that I played though.

Do you really think Einstein would have "Involved with the creation of atomic bomb" as one of his five highlights?

#8, I was just playing MOHAA and thinking that when a WWII MM game comes out and plays as well as that one does it will be amazing!

Yep, high expectations I guess. I had WWII Online early on as well, but when it came time to add in the monthly charge I just didn't get enough out of it to keep playing and paying. I can see why a lot of you do like it though. WWII Online before pay per month didn't meet my expectations so I stopped *shrug*.

My system isn't great (866mhz w/ geforce and 512 mb ram) but the FPS problems were really noticable even right before the pay per month started. Guess I need a l33t new system to show off the blocky graphics of wwii online?

For a free trial though I guess, sounds like it is worth giving another shot

I had bought WWII Online when it first hit shelves but like everyone knows, the performance, features, and even gameplay were all lacking big time early on. When they finally announced that the pay time would start I had already uninstalled the game, and was glad I hadn't gotten hooked on a monthly pay for play game.

After that initial disapointment there is no way I'd give it another shot, even for a free trial. Sounds stupid I guess, but I've got enough shooter games to keep me busy without a monthly fee.

I hope at least that WW2 Online is one of the cases game companies consider before they release an unfinished product. Even if Cornered Rat/Strategy First/Playnet could have squeezed out another month or two from their budgets to get a more solid game it might have made a difference, and the product would have been more succesful overall.

Now they have to just keep slugging away and hope that word of mouth eventually makes them a good money maker.

It's only one map, but I played with 4-10 players for an hour just now (hosting on my crappy cable) and it was a lot of fun! I had only intended to check out the map and weapons since I didn't want to install gamespy arcade, but people kept joining and weren't complaining about ping

Anyhow, CS is great, RA3 is great and there are lots of other great multiplayer fps games out there. MoH is great too based on that first impression with only one map! Very solid game, and another great choice for multiplayer shooter game. I didn't even try the teamplayer yet but I didn't see any of the problems that others have been complaining about on these boards.

I am going to be buying it for the single player game though anyhow:)

Love the sounds from the allied rifle and the rocket launchers.

Way to go 2015!

Guys, this HAS to be a joke. Look at Xicat's website

Well, no mention of Sniper on Xicat's page but incagold's has the news from yesterday.

So if this isn't a joke (which I really doubt), then they should delay the game a year or so and put in outdoor levels

I have a life (sort of ;), so a game's release isn't all important. BUT, I've been eagerly awaiting this game since 1997 I think. I'm tired..help me 3d Realms. I just can't understand how a game can take this long when it isn't starting completely from scratch. I'm sure there are tons of engine enhancements but jeesh! Sorry for beating the dead horse though.

Maybe you could just license Duke to Raven so we can see the game in 8 months on the Quake III engine?

Maybe they should think about releasing it before it's done...like everyone else does

I have no life..but I just got 431 in pong. Screen shot to prove Addictive thing

Seems weird that he posted a positive .plan update just 4 days ago (http://www.bluesnews.com/plans/164/). Maybe he got a nice package from them or something?

What is he supposed to do? Work for free? A$$.

I was confused for a second by that too..but that Blue guy is named Steve too right
