The true stories and historical events you experience on your perilous journey take you through real battlefields meticulously recreated from aerial reconnaissance images, US Army Signal Corps photos and eye-witness accounts of war-torn Normandy. Players of all skill levels can battle their way through this intense experience because of Brothers in Arms innovative and accessible command and control system."The first screenshots from the game are in UGO's Brothers in Arms Preview, which includes some first-hand impressions and offers some details not included in the press release.
That one screenshot of the assault definitely looks nice, game reminds you of COD tho- but we'll see how well Gearbox pulls this off...
New Point of view for WWII games is a good suggestion... I've always wanted to play from a german point of view and perhaps the russian front? or africa campaign?
who knows wut publishers will agree on in the future
