WWII Online, that game never really stuck to me, maybe it just seemed laggy or something. Granted I was new to the game, so maybe my lack of understanding the game mechanics made it less enjoyable. Maybe I'll try it out again and see If I change my mind.


I doubt it can pull me away from EVE: online though....

It's had a lot of improvements over the years and it runs pretty good nowadays. It can still be laggy for me when i'm in a city with heavy fighting but you just need to tweak your GFX settings to get it right most of the time.

It's a totally differant game to EVE. I played EVE and while I loved the idea I really don't like that you don't control the ship yourself. I expected to be able to plug a joystick in and have some good space dog fights but the constant auto-pilot is kind of boring.

I see why people like it though, such a huge world and player-base. I just wish it was more like the X-Universe games when it comes to piloting a ship.

Well back when I tried it out, I couldn't find any combat. So I ended up running around the country side trying to find people, for an hour or so. I ended up getting killed by some random German in a bush, so my first experience in the game wasn't the best, but im sure its better now. EVE is a great game in my opinion, theres always something to do and see, and I think its only going to get better with the new Trinity update.

Haha your first mission is the typical for all players. You really need to learn where the fights are and be careful when approaching the hot spots.

If you ever resub make sure you hit the forums and ask for help. Joining a squad is the best thing a new player can do.

There is nothing like doing a paradrop mission in ww2ol. You start with a hole lot of people at an airbase, jump into a plane that someone is piloting, and jump over a town while getting shot at. You need at least 30 mins free if you want to login though, it's not your normal multiplayer FPS afterall.

We just need submarines in it!

hard to explain really...but as a basic, it kinda goes like, capping enemy buildings,and army bases you can gain points for a rank,the higher the rank,the harder to get points, you can get points also anyway, by killing someone, to deploying a mobile spawn and etc...Theres also another way you can gain rank,is by joining the GHC(German High Command) or AHC(Allied High Command) but I wouldn't recommend this if you were a newer person to the game and wasn't familar with how the game works,but if you do that,you automaticly get boosted up to a Colonel, and you can pick what you'd like to be in,Navy,Army,Airforce,and they would posistion you(higher ranking guys) in either a XXO,XO,CO spot,but usually XXO or XO.

Yeah, I was in Allied High Command for a short time. I find the strategic part of the game is not for me. I like the tactics on the ground in the fight.


...oh, and the paradrops are a brilliant part of the game. When the jumpmaster says go go go and you jump...you really realize how vulnerable you are. But the mayhem of a large battle is awesome!
