Nyarlathotep Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 Anyone playing it ? If so, are you in an outfit ?Any comments on the game itself ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acriku Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 I remember somebody talking to me about it, that it was a MMOFPS with soldiers fighting on a huge world. Sounds good, but isn't it P2P? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyarlathotep Posted February 4, 2004 Author Share Posted February 4, 2004 Yes it is. But loving every minute of it. Especially when your clan (outfit) mates are online ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUNWOUNDS Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 Anyone playing it ? If so, are you in an outfit ?Any comments on the game itself ?i have been debating for awhile on whether or not to buy this game... i hear its great and fun... but i also heard the downtime is bad... meaning you cant do anything without a group... and the problem is that you can spend all day looking for a group....i heard you can literally wait hours for a group to form....... which would seem irritating.whats your take on this nyar?

Nyarlathotep Posted February 5, 2004 Author Share Posted February 5, 2004 Humm, haven't had that problem to much myself. Usually when I get on, some of my Outfit buddies are on, so I do not have that problem often. However, when there's no one online, I usually send a broadcast asking for any available squads. A good tip with this is to add some people to your buddy list who you see online frequently (usually you can see them doing a global broadcast).A few good people to add:NightJustinalotBraveheartBeckbondAnd obviously everyone from the GameHeaven outfit ;DThose are online frequently and are usually in a squad (or platoon).The game is great fun, just imagine yourself in the middle of a 200 vs 200 battle... I'll try to put up some screenies when I get home :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUNWOUNDS Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 one more question... are there hitboxes?by this i mean.. is there a difference between shooting someone's leg or their head? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyarlathotep Posted February 5, 2004 Author Share Posted February 5, 2004 Nope, not as far as I am aware. Although, there is a difference in range and position. When you're far away, you'll do less (if any) damage then when you're up close (apart from the sniper rifle). Also, when you move a lot, you'll be less acurate and thus doing less damage. When you're in crouch mode, you'll be more acurate then when standing up. With automatic weapons, you'll do better when giving short bursts, instead of holding down the button until your clip is empty.So no hitboxes, but you have to consider you're weapon before you start shooting.

Khan Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 I played the seven day trial but I didn't like it much although I could see how one could like it once they trained up and got some better guns. How much does it cost per month? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acriku Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 $11/month isn't that bad, as it seems to be the regular P2P rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 why are we losing lots of posts here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khan Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 Looks like our hard drive on the server is messing up. We lost a bunch of messages because of it, I think since Sunday of last week.We should be getting a new hard drive soon but the server will be up and down until its fixed.

Nyarlathotep Posted February 18, 2004 Author Share Posted February 18, 2004 Bought the expansion Core Combat and I can tell you it's worth the 20 Euro's. The caverns have some awsome graphics and the extra weapons and vehicles are well worth getting (espcially the Flail if used with laser guidance).

thomas Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 IMO the expansion was ok but not great. the new weapons are good but there's only 3, the vehicles rock but there's only 3 (a new plane would be nice) the vcaverns rock but I hardly see a battle there, but over all the expansion gets an 8/10 from me, POS gets a 9.5/10 from me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
