1.31 is live.

All I can say is WOW what a difference. It is a completely new game now. So much immersion.

If you haven't tried this game, or if you have been away for a while, you really should try it out. You may be surprised how vast and immersive this game is.

:up:

How's the performance compared to the first beta? I remember it was pretty bad back then, especially when looking at a forest with binocs. :hmmm:

I am getting around 25-30 FPS even in the large battles.

Massive amounts of players have come back. Battles are double the size of what they used to be now.

Too little to late.

Where's the rest of the terrain? Africa? Russia?...
Where's the rest of the contries? USA, USSSR, Japan....
Where's the rest of the equipemnt? Artillery, SPG's, SPAA's, proper navy, airplanes, infantary weapons?

How about competence?
Accuracy?
For example:they not even say wich version of the Tiger tank is it, early, med or late?

It's not like they're Ubi or EA with hundreds of workers and boatload of money, you know. Most of your points can be answered with: There is not enough players to make all that work worth it. Giving more countries would mean either of two things: To make the map even bigger as it is and run it all on one server as is or make separate maps for the new threatres and run them on separate servers. Both options need way more players than there is.

It is not an simulator nor has it ever said it is. It's a balance of gameplay and a touch of realism.

Ow and it's Tiger E. :O:

WWIIOL always simulated a single campaign (It being the Battle of France), adding in other things in parellal wouldn't work unless they were completely new games.

Don't forget that it's a game, not a simulation. While it's more accurate than most, it still needs to be balanced.

EDIT: As they say on the PI forums: Emu'd by Mr. Dowly.

I like the game alot, but "lost" my gunner to RL and never had the same feel with any of the "replacements"

I dig tanks and the multicrew did it for me. One day when i find a new gunner i will re sub, but not before that....

@Dowly

Of course, but if they don't apply themselfs they won't attract more players, its a loose loose situation for them and for us.

It is a simulator, i presume you played it when it was released.

And finally "Tiger E" by itself doesn't say anything, it started as official name of Tiger H (early versions) then sometime in 1943 during med version production it was renamed as Tiger E, at that time it wasn't so slow as before, it could then move at around 43Km/h (of a max of 46) instead of just 37/38 Km/h, among other things removed others added and lots improved.

@Raptor1

The plan was to have it all hence the original name WWII Online.
They had some troubles in the beginning, that seamed it wasn't their fault but as time passed it was cleared the pace and the way they worked wasn't right after all. E.g. lots of promisses and no show.

I played at the beginning and it was great, played some more during the "Welcome back soldier" events, but with no decent evolution... i was not going to support lazyness.

I'm playing the offline demo, and I cant seem to be able to enter exit vehicles. I'm pressing the button the keymapping tells me but still no joy. Its an exellent game though sort of reminds me of Operation Flashpiont but with better graphics. The cost puts me off buying a few months online time but I assume the cost also keeps away most kids and noobs?

You can only enter/exit vehicles as passenger.

Oops, so no way for getting out as a driver/ commander? Even on the ships?

Nope.

Lol, nvm then but thanks anyway. :yeah:

Ow well, I'm back in business for the next 3 months. :salute:

Good to hear.

New campaign started. Allies are on a roll, but us Axis are pushing back the Allies with all our might.

I find that the new terrain makes the enemy harder to spot, so staying alive is much harder.

well trying the game again after 3 years absence....new char new everything....time to die alot lmao


L.T

Aye, noticed we were in a bit of an trouble, but did make some progress too. Still with 1775th it seems, was sure I had been kicked out for inactivity. :hmmm:

Yup, much better this way. They got hard time spotting you too, so. :O: *sigh* Now starts the wait for my Stug. :-?

Aaaah, now that was satisfying, three tanks in a minute. :yeah:

Great great battle going on at Habay. Allies throwing everything they have at us and we counter them everytime with the same 2 Brigades. They must've lost dozens of tanks there. :salute:

That Char tank doesn't look too healthy :haha: What you driving? II? III?

Saying "Char tank" is like saying "Tank tank" in English, isn't it?

Bet he's driving a StuG...
