I just finished the game, and I wish it was longer :( Oh, and I just checked the game website and it's misleading cause it lists weapons you don't get to use at all in the game. Given the price and the length of the game, at the end I feel kinda let down. Anyways I might be doing something wrong cau...

Well I played through the first mission and i gotta say that I'm not too impressed. It's so.... basic. THe graphics are an odd mix of very nice and terrible. BUt teh gameplay is console-ish and boring. But nwo i know. But I also tried Wolverine, and it's surprisingly good. I think I'll grab a copy....

I am on the 5th or 6th mission now (Warsaw) and I can honestly say that I am having a great time playing the game. Tha ambience is very suggestive, the lighting so lifelike, and the pace is just right with loads of sneaking up on the enemy and bits of explosive action. I only wish Violette's movemen...

Here are some pics from my home forum... the shadows in this game can be amazing] Indeed. Turns out the game is already available for download in Europe from Steam and Gamersgate so in about 2 hours I will be able to check it out myself :) Btw, does it have an official forum and support (I couldn't...

I know these are general questions but I'm not sure if they warrant creating a separate thread.


They did. :mrgreen: And here ya go :P We generally try and keep Detailed Report threads about issues affecting the grading, rather than actual gameplay :)

Sure thing. Thanks man! :)

Anyone got the full version of this yet? I do, and I am having a blast! :) I reckon the demo gives an accurate representation of the full product. You get more aircraft, more weapon loadouts, a number of locations to fly and fight over, and different mission types (e.g. escort, defend, find and des...

Not sure if you are aware that some ppl have managed to extract planes that are locked in the demo (e.g. mirage, Su47Berkut), and now you can fly these machines.

Mach, press c to cycle through assistance on views. As far as I know assistance off has only the cinematic view.
I am no hardcore sim fan and maybe that's why I am really into this game. Piloting the plane is fairly easy with keyboard only, which makes me a happy camper :)

I recommend cod 4 and 5. There are loads of servers out there and you can always find a good one (just a matter of joining a game and checking what ppl are saying and whether whining is tolerated). Some servers even ban bunny hopping to keep a semblance of "realism." I play COD5 on a French server (...

I did not know there was a separate app. for GFWL. I'm not really worried about this crap taking up my system resources, but my anus is starting to hurt from all this. Yeah, it's a pain in the butt. Anyhoo, there is a separate app, and you are aware that GTA4 requires you to update it once you inst...

All ports are forwarded. Still can't connect, but now I actually get an error message; rather than just "can't log you in, LOL". It's probably my university's fascist firewall blocking it. I remember reading that people couldn't log into winlive from within GTA4, but all was ok when using the winli...

The graphics look nice: remind me of Far Cry2 Dunia engine. And I wouldn't write off the entire Ubisoft as I got R6Vegas2 recently (Steam discount) and its multiplayer is a lot of fun. FC2 works the other way round: solid sp, frustrating gameplay in mp. Their customer support is poor though, I do ag...

I'm afraid not. I've only got a visual conclusion for FC2 being basically unaffected. (Ran smoothly before and still does.)


Cool, thanks! I'm gonna give em a go then.
