Re: Brothers in Arms
I was really keen on this game before it came out as I like the idea of a shooter with some historical accuracy, but then it got awful reviews among people on the internet whose taste is likely to coincide with mine. Two problems I heard were (a) aiming was terribly inaccurate; (b) gameplay got repetitive - suppress, flank, assault and then repeat. How do you find these aspects?
Re: Brothers in Arms
It heard the multiplayer sucks, the guns are supposedly very inaccurate and weak so everyone rushes in for a melee attack.
Re: Brothers in Arms
The aiming are inaccurate yes, but it makes the game more fun.(takes longer time to kill the enemy; the missions are not done in 1,2,3 sec)
As of flanking, I don`t really bother and snipe `em from a distance, or send my team to kill them.
Don`t know anything about MP.
Runes for good luck:

Re: Brothers in Arms
im telling you
it freaking gnarly
gamespot even re-reviewed it with a 9.0
it is a billion times better than call of duty and the multiplayer is a novel approach to fun tactical gaming
chess is "boring" too, but tons of people play it all the time
as mods and expansions come out, this game will be amazing
i thought the same things, but when i played the demo, i was pleasantly suprised that general public reviews can be wrong
remember, this is the same "general public" that loves action flicks and shiny objects
plus it is around 29 bucks

Screenshots? Anything?

Re: Brothers in Arms
Hmm... Now I'm suddenly not as impressed anymore.
If it is historical correctness they are gunning for it is surprising how they label the Sherman as a good way of killing enemy tanks, and in general downplay the German weapons while upplaying the American ones.
Btw, where are the German machineguns or the Panzershreck?
Also, here we have another game that hasn't had the guts to let the player actually play as a German soldier.
