As long as it is better than COD2...I am there.

[jumpy]

hehe I hear that.
I'm playing a bit of COD2 at the moment... I can't get MOH Spearhead to work on my pc at the moment... tried nhancer and all sorts to get drivers compatible :cry:

[SUBMAN1]

Is it me? Or is everyone getting a little tired of WWII games?

[jumpy]

get lost you heretic!! :-j:lol:

Yea, I'm getting tired of playing old WW2 FPS games especially online.
Lets get some NEW blood released soon. Everybody seems to want to
do the modern stuff (way too much of that) Even COD4 jumped on that
tired old bandwagon....

Looks as though the demo releases in about two more days. I'll definitely be taking it for a spin.

[jumpy]

Demo is out on thursday 23rd this week...

if you're a fileplanet subscriber you can reserve your download: http://www.fileplanet.com/promotions/moha/index.aspx

If not, then you can wait in line for the drop with the rest of us... no hesitating in the door though please ;)

[flintlock]

I never understood why a FilePlanet subscriber would need to reserve a download. As a subscriber, you get access to a fast connection without the need to queue up.

[jumpy]

hehe, go figure... I took it to mean that you get some kind of 'auto download' from fileplanet as soon as the demo becomes available?
Goning to have to bide my time, or stay up quite a bit to get into the public que when it appears.

666 KB/sec. Hm, that a bad sign?

[Biggles]

Oh you lucky bastard.....I'm now number 38 in line......:stare:

[jumpy]

lol, maybe. I left mine running from lunchtime today... if it's still cranking away when I get home at 5 pm, then your stats are ok :lol::rotfl:

[FAdmiral]

At 1.27 gig, this is a BIG download file even for cable or DSL...
Getting mine now from FileFront !!

JIM

[FAdmiral]

Oh No !! I got a message at game start up: video card not supported
So, now I have to buy a video card before I can buy the game.
The American way of Life marches on to the tune of: spend more $$$

Dont worry, this game is utter crap. Graphics are okay, but sounds, recoil and pretty much everything else is way off. Sigh.

[jumpy]

Well, I liked it anyway :roll: :lol:

Demos are not always representative of the complete finished product...

My only real gripe so far is the lack of a TOGGLE ironsights setting, having to keep your finger on the rmb whilst aiming then mashing the lmb to fire is a bit off imo, particularly if you want to do that lean or creep thing with your sights remaining up.

It ain't no COD2 that's for sure, thank god.

I think it's pretty good. Remember, this is a demo so hopefully they will still be making improvements and by the time it's released it should be alot better than the demo. I really like the non-linear approach, it's kinda like a Battlefield game now. btw, if your having trouble downloading it from Filefront and places like that, there is an official torrent file which downloaded in about 4 hours. And before anyone says - Torrents AREN'T illegal!

[flintlock]

Considering the retail version hits stores in a matter of weeks, the demo is likely very representaive of the finished product. I enjoyed it for what it is, though it's definitely a full-out aracde shooter (don't expect RO style realism here). One thing I found strking is that when I fired it up I had to double check that I wasn't in front of the 360. This game absolutely screams console port, big time! From the way the simplified menus are handled to the way you auto lean when you move a little to the side.

It's a shame that many PC titles are watered down when there is a multi-platform release, but that's simply a sign of the times. Hey don't get me wrong; I enjoy the 360 for sports games (Madden 08 and Forza 2 are great), but I prefer my shooters on a PC with a KB and mouse. In the end, it may be a fun and quick jaunt on the PC, but I can't help but wonder how good it may have been if it was a PC only platform release.

[Biggles]

I think the demo is great fun actually. I didn't expect realism in a MoH game, so I was surprised over the amount of damage you could take (Which is MUCH less than previous MoH games). Overall it's a fun demo, and I'll get the full game for sure.

After doing a couple of days research on video cards along with
what MS is considering doing with DX10, I settled on the cheapest
card I could find that would run MOH:A. I got a GeForce 7600GT
with 256megDDR3. At only $69.95, the card runs MOH:A demo
just fine. Also my frame rates and what I can now see in SH4
really makes the upgrade worthwhile. Frame rates were doubled from my old ATI X600 pro card running 256meg of std memory. Will wait
& see about the next DX10 upgrade (maybe for XP)....
