Your discussion is futile. Red Orchestra pwns all.
Actually, I liked CoD a whole lot, best single player WW2 by far. I’ve not played the 2nd in multiplayer, but the first was very good, UO was good but sometimes not so fun…
I played a bunch of the original DoD, tried to get into the source version, but couldn’t
As far as Steam games go, I’ve been against it for sometime, but RO and Dark Messiah (check it out, freaking sweet!) have changed my mind. Team Fortress 2 should be nice as well.
Dark Messiah feels a lot like Half-Life 2 with the Dragon Crates.
About the motion sickness, I still get it from Half-Life 2 when you are in the buggy.
Yea how come Half- Life is the only program that still hasnt solved the motion sickness programming issues? That was solved by like every company, but many friends hate that game because it gives a real pain in the head.
Never had the motion sickness thing. I usually get into the game enough that much of movement doesn’t bother me. However, if I jump of a ledge, I can “feel” the fall. I get the weird feeling in real life too, driving fast over small hills or on the swinging pirate ship amusement park rides.
Anyway, IL, you need to see Red Orchestra. You may not like Steam or Valve that much, but RO is a quality piece of gaming for anyone who wants a realistic WW2 experience. And you can shoot dudes arms off with a tank rifle.

I dont like the infantry fighting in Red Orchestra, but I love tanks. :-D The T34/85 is awesome, and the Panther is also a bad ass tank. I dont like the Tiger so much. It is powerful, but its slow in reloading and speed.
I like the infantry or combined arms maps better…
Just can’t stand tank only battles as they are so huge with little fighting going on. Why waste 5 minutes to get into a 30 sec firefight?

Ill agree with you on that. I like to shoot infantry when im in a tank, and im sure its likewise with infantry armed with anti-tank weapons. Some people are just tank kind of people (such as myself) and some people are infantry kind (such as yourself Jermo.)

I love tanks though, if you have good people. And having infantry help cover you while they move up is essential. I like driving in halftracks too, that’s why I love Makhnovo so much. You playing tonight?

I wished I had it. I just played it on the free weekend. I havent bought a game in about a year and a half.
Since this is the thread me and IL argued between DoD and CoD I decided to post here.
Although the new CoD3 game looks like itll have the same SP (which was the whole reason I said it was going to suck) I was happy to see that CoD3 will have a very good MP and I now have a renewed hope for this game.

The MP will have the same concepts as the CoD United offensive (about damn time!!), using jeeps, tanks, mobile MG’s, and the ranking system. I was happy about that, after CoD 2’s dissapointing MP being so plain after they made such a kick ass MP in CoD UO. So now that they were on the right track, I was even more surprised to hear that they were implementing some concepts from other games. Now there are going to be different classes, much like in RTCW or the Battlefield series. There will be classes that can heal you (medic), give you ammo, destroy tanks (bazooka/panzerfaust), or can call artillery (sniper). Also there will be a class that can deploy landmines to cover certain areas (much like Wolf ET.) Mobile MG’s can be set up on any surface and you can fire them while standing up (much like DoD.) Im glad to see that they are finally making a good game using concepts from here and there to finally make a bad ass MP. Cant wait for its release. :wink:

Never got to play COD2 multiplayer. UO was fun, and the original was great - but I think many people were looking for more from the original than taking the vehicle route. I don’t know what to think. I loved the original, but it’s starting to sound like the battlefield series (which is good, but I don’t need another).

Well the only thing that would probaly beat CoD 3 is if Dice decided to go back and do WWII and make it even awesomer. Then without a doubt I probaly wont play CoD 3 cause id be so damn addicted to flying. :-D
RO is not as fun as DOD. Trust me im an experience gamer.

I agree that RO is not as fun as DoD, however the tank battles in RO are awesome, so you cant say it sucks.
RO is great, I just think that dod is better.
