I laff.
haha..it says I don't meet the system requirements? Are they taking the mick?
Going to give this a go now. Just got some way better ram delivered today 2 x Corsair 1gb sticks rather than my cheap crucial ram. Looks quality. However a lot of people seem disappointed with it. Hopefully BF2 will be here tomorrow..day off work and on friday..can't wait! :D
I found this randomly downloaded onto my computer....spooky. But then I figured out it was my brother :P
At least it's in there for people to agree or disagree too.
I just played an hour and a bit of it and i have to say i quite like it, it feels very different to CSS and that style of play, it's more like the cheap CS style games for the unreal engine 'Urban combat' or what ever it was called.
The guns i found very easy to get used to and you can kinda see it being something that started off as a console idea, aiming having very little to do with killing people.
The differnt mines and grenades make for an entertaining game as you don't always notice the little mine above you that is quite happily flashing a green light till it's ready to blow your face off.
Movement wise it feels more Quake 3 than anything else the sort of game where you run around and blast everything that moves while jumping to your little bunny hop ass off.
servers are small around 8 people per game but thats because the levels are small at the moment, i would much prefer to play the single player than the multi as the video it shows got me all excited.
Change the graphics options and then click test and it runs a 2 minute in game move with those settings making you want to see the story and get blasting.
My computer handles it easily and when i set it to maxium everything and run the test it makes a recomendation and it said turn up for detail settings (but they where already at max). I can't see anyone with a compatable graphics card not being able to run this well.
It was just a shame about the ping as there was only one european server running and there was only 4 of us so it would be better with 8.
