CMSF DEMO - Fullhouse - 07-28-2007

Well going on the Demo aint to impressed.

I mean its alright, but Im no where close to blown away. Ive only tried RT so far, imo if a game is RT the UI and the Camera have to be flawless so the player can process and act with as little burden as possible from the interface. I think there is room for improvement in the UI and camera.

RT is important because all TCP/IP must be played in RT there is no wego, wego MP is only available in PBEM.

I suppose I just lack immersion, I dont know what the units are, but dont feel that motivated to find out like I did with ww2 stuff.

When I played the CMx1 demo's I was totaly blown away and think I purchased CMBO a few hours after trying the demo.

I am going to hang fire with this title and see how it pans out.

not sure if the demo comes with a manual.. but if it does.. READ IT as there's a lot more info in there that makes the game easier to figure out.


RE: CMSF DEMO - Smashing(FGM) - 07-29-2007

I played the Demo...and its brilliant i wasn't expecting it to be this good...im definately getting the full version..ive only tried real time single player but i can imagine against a human this will be the dogs bollocks..excellant Game even better than CMx1 and it'll get better when it gets player support


RE: CMSF DEMO - Tanker - 07-29-2007

Yes demo has the full manual. So far I like the game. I remember my first impression of cmbb demo. I had no idea what was going on and I did not like it at all. I couldn't get back to SP and Close Combat fast enough. I tried it again and cm kind of grew on me (like a fungus). I think it will be the same with CMx2.

There are two scens with the demo, one is a night battle and its impossible to see anything so it's a waste of time..
The other is a 4X Stryker advance (with inf aboard) against entrenched Syrian inf which I won easily at the first attempt, I'm not at all impressed with the AI.
I mean, I simply rolled the Stryks forward until the dumb Syrians blew their cover by starting shooting with small arms (dumb shmuks, as if AK's can penetrate Strykers, huh!) then I stood off and shot them to bits with return Stryker fire, I never even had to dismount my inf..
Hey you Ay-rabs, your uncle POS has arrived in the mid-east.. :)

DEMO SCREENSHOT -

SYRIAN - "Sir, we have a trench full of our dead!"
COMMANDER - "Hmm...POS."
SYRIAN - "But sir, how do you know POS did it?"
COMMANDER - "Body count"..

LOL... POS you badass!!


RE: CMSF DEMO - Fullhouse - 07-29-2007

Well I would say the night battle is also incredibly easy to win against the AI even on eilte. The AI is very gung ho with its armour.

Still a bet meh, on this title dosnt help that the demo makes my pc cold reboot.
