Yes, I also played the demo and I found it to be quite fun, a bit linear at times but it seems like fun.
The whole idea of time travelling soldiers shooting roman legionnaires with assault rifles was long overdue anyway. :2thumbsup:

Heh, I was mad when the demo ended so shortly. I think I am going to replay it. Was a lot of fun, going to see what I can get away with.

Such as killing those guys who tele in near the end.

Video of Me playing. Does include spoilers. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59MmZpjGEbU)

mountaingoat, what is the setting of your second screenshot?

This looks bonkers, but maybe in a good way.

That's the WWI mission. You fight with the Russians against the Germans.

Man...I don't think I've ever SEEN a modern FPS set in WWI. Much less on the Eastern Front! I may have to buy the game just for that :laugh4:

There are a couple older ones I know of, and a recent release called Necrovision (though that's ostly about fighting demons and vampires, just in a WW1 setting).

I was actually hoping for the even more obscure setting of the Russian Civil War, but that's still pretty choice.

Hahaha, awesome plot. I have always imagining what it would be like a reaction of for instance, the American revolutionaries encountering an army equipped with automatic rifles, snipers and tanks.

That would be a sight to see.

EDIT: 7:40 of the video of Veho Nex. that's exactly what I meant. A group of Confederate soldiers being pinned down by machine gun fire. They surely would be "WT* is shooting at us with such a speed???"

Thats weird... The night I uploaded it it looked like 12x12 pixel board changing colors.
