World War II Online brings air, ground, and sea combat to a real-time, persistent, and historically set massively multiplayer game. Now you can command and crew a variety of accurately modeled vehicles, aircraft, and ships or you can explore the world and fight as a foot soldier in first person - combat with and against thousands of others players!
This app first attracted our attention like the telltale tickle of an upwardly mobile tapeworm. An action-packed 3D game that conveys the thrills and chills of the second World War with vast imaginary armies of paid subscribers who join either the Allied or the Axis forces for a fun-filled adventure on the “blood-soaked shores” of Europe — but, you know, without those icky death camps — wow, it just all seems unbelievably crass, even horrific, but is it?
Yes. Oh yes, it is.
Like a runaway thresher in the fancy chicken coop, WWII Online is headed for a nasty end. While this app’s delusions of grandeur will undoubtedly exert a visceral appeal upon the drooling legions of brainwashed cannon-fodder wannabes who think war is like, cool, dude, its impenetrable format does nothing to ameliorate its inherent godawful shittiness.
A small sample of the user-hating will suffice: The exact dollar amount of the mandated monthly subscription fee is not provided to casual browsers such as ourselves, perhaps because it’s all terribly top-secret spy stuff, but we suspect the price is beyond the reach of the average Polish peasant. And the equally unspoken joystick requirement is likely to discourage all but the most devoted brown-shirted jack-booted goose-stepper.
Cornered Rat Software, your name says it all. We’d sure like to see how your smelly little foxhole stands up to a blitzkrieg attack. But in the meantime, please sink your persistent nose into this fragrant bouquet of Stielhandgranates wrapped in a massively multiplayer 11.0.
Posted by naomi at December 23, 2003 05:10 PM | TrackBack2 clicks from your provided link I found...
"The monthly subscription rate is $12.99USD"
That's two clicks too many for me, baby!
Elsewhere on the site you will find a lot of wild talk about a $19.99 fee to "buy the game." And this is in addition to the hidden subscription fee and, frankly, I could get a REAL gun for that kind of money.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls.
Contrary to what you've just seen, war is neither glamorous nor fun.
There are no winners, only losers. There are no good wars, with the following exceptions:
-The American Revolution,
-World War II, and
-the Star Wars Trilogy.
If you'd like to learn more about war, there's lots of books in your local library, many of them with cool, gory pictures. Well, good night, everybody. Peace, man.

PS: Sorry for being so absent lately, I've been one busy little contradiction! WHAT?!? Don't lie to me and tell me you care! And I don't wanna hear none of that "we missed you" crap either! LIES!!
War aint so bad.
Posted by: G.Khan on December 23, 2003 08:06 PMMr. Contradiction,
Normally, as you know, I would agree with you. However there are far too many words there for me to be bothered with and therefore this time shall be no different. I wholeheartedly agree with everything you said unless it's about me and that scullery wench, because, let me tell you, that bitch is a liar.
On a different tangent:
Naomi,
If you're paying 33.00(ish) dollars for a real gun, then you're paying too much, come on down to my "friend's" shop "Jose's Discount Shooters" where they have two-for-one tuesday's. They're practically a steal. *wink wink*

Posted by: gangsta lint on December 24, 2003 01:14 AMguys, you're all missing the point. PvT is runnin' with the big dogs, if they want to take on WWII Online! They have evolved beyond the days of making fun of pathetic shareware like Blork 2, and they are now taking on the big names like... um... Cornered Rat Software. Um... yeah.
And why don't I hear them complaining about Return to Castle Wolfenstein cheapening the memories of veterans? Those zombies were true heroes. Each and every one of them. So were the Nazi chicks in leather.
Mmm... Nazi chicks in leather...
Posted by: kjones on December 24, 2003 08:05 AMOh, Naomi. I just can't believe you'd try to suck the fun out World War II. I read that Tom Brokaw book and it was HYSTERICAL! Every true American longs for the simulated visceralness of storming the beaches at Normandy.
I want to be the guy who wanders around in a daze holding his severed arm in his hand! Yay, war!
But, seriously, allow me to just second kjones when he says "Mmm... Nazi chicks in leather..."
Mmm... Nazi chicks in leather... indeed. They need a whole other game just centered around those Nazi chicks in leather... and their private sleep-overs... and pillow fights... and...
Uh, anyway, to sum up... stay in school, kids.
Posted by: John Moltz on December 24, 2003 10:04 AMHmmm, now there's a christmas present... Nazi chicks in leather sleepovers - part of the 'Nazi Chicks In Leather' series soon to be available at quality resellers near you...
A bit of a step up from Virtual Valerie. Possibly an even more catchy sound track as well...?

Billy Here:
If they make a Nazi chicks in leather game will they have an "Ilsa - She Wolf of the SS" expansion pack.If so-I may need more than OXYclean™ for my shorts.Wink Wink Nudge Nudge.
FUCK ALL YALL, ww2online is pretty cool, try it from a squad perspective and enjoy something more than the dictionary word search bingo for your post, sometime, ya freaks
Posted by: bota12 on March 21, 2004 11:58 PMUhh ok, this is really weak.
wwiionline is a great GAME, that's right it's a GAME, anyone who plays it KNOWS it's a GAME.
Also is has educated alotof people who never knew there was a difference between the Nazi and the regular German army (which for the most part was like any other army).
The people don't play this game because we, uh, like think war is cool (but thanks for belittle a whole group of people you don;t know, shows a lot of class), we play the game because it requires teamwork. We enjoy the challenge for playing against other people, not computer bots.
Finally, what'w with the tinfoil hat in regards to MMOG's charging a monthly fee, that type of subscription based gaming has been around since the BBS days. All MMOG's charge a monthy fee (bandwidth does cost money) this is not a new feature.
There is ONE big difference with wwiionline inregards to monthly fee. They are the only company that does NOT require your credit card info to get your free month when you buy the game. Every other MMOG requires your credit card info to get your free month.
Perhaps you should try talking to Hatch, Mo, Rafter or Lindir(the Devs are very accessable and will answer your questions if you want to ask).
Anyway, let's see how you guys respond.
Posted by: Mryddlin on April 1, 2004 08:31 AMww2 kicks ass!
Posted by: killufoo on April 1, 2004 09:02 AMIt looks like an 80s game. Infantry play is a joke.. tank quake. The infantry animations look like, well, *shudders* so unnatural. And Patches always come with horrible bugs and create more problems. The game is kinda craptastic and in need of fixes, but the more they patch it the worse it gets.. See the vicious cycle? You can only see like 30 dudes at a time right? So why not just play wolfenstein where the other players and warping all over the map?
Posted by: StabMaster Arson on April 1, 2004 09:06 AMseriously, lay off the crack (of your sisters ass)
Posted by: homer j simpson on April 1, 2004 09:07 AMThat's a pretty funny review. For a game that survived probably one of the worst launches ever, and is increasing the subscriptions all the time, I'd say it has to have something the article seems to think it is sorely lacking.
It's one of the few pieces of software these days facing continual adjustment and improvement, and the developers are pretty dedicated to their subscribers.
Anyways, you want fries wit dat?
Posted by: mellow on April 1, 2004 09:14 AMIt's not about the graphics, it's about the gameplay. When it comes to that, there is no better game anywhere. It's also the biggest persistant game world going, by several orders of magnitude. That alone is a pretty major accomplishment in the MMOG field.
In closing, the only other game that has held my interest (and gotten my subscription dollars) this long (2 years and counting) is Ulitma Online. Give it a try, if you don't like it, that's fine, if you do, we'll see you on the virtual battlefield
Posted by: BKBone on April 1, 2004 09:32 AMI find it disturbing that a person would spend time to ignorantly belittle something that they do not know, or are clearly not interested in.
It doesn't take much maturity to know that war is bad.
Using your logic, we can denigrate any game that requires one to dominate their opponent (yes, including Chutes and Ladders).
Your mad-libs style review bely something that is more deep seated than a casual disregard of people other than yourself.
Give the game a go, who knows, you might have fun despite yourself!
Posted by: blackkat on April 1, 2004 09:53 AMSo what's wrong with a little simulated warfare? Would you say games like paintball, laser tag and airsoft are perversions, too? How about football? Badminton?
WWIIol has features unlike any other game out there (good and bad, mostly good) that make it truely unique. For the vast majority of players it translates into a very enjoyable gaming experience.
If you don't like the game, or don't like that we do, so be it. Just let other folks make their own decisions, w/o the propaganda machine trying to scare them away.
Posted by: Chemguy on April 1, 2004 10:11 AMObviously people who work for a site that encourages Perversion (wtf?!) couldn't be bothered to join a squad in WWIIOL, and therefore missed out on about 3/4 of the gameplay.
Guys, give this game a try. JOIN A SQUAD. They're all very accepting, and they will show you how to play this game for fun.
Oh, and it's WWII Online 1.12 now, with 1.13 on the way. New additions and bug fixes continue to make it better, no matter what this crack smoking reviewer thinks. He probably was violently ill when he realised he couldn't use his l337 M1 Garand or M16-style BAR.
Peace.
Posted by: Meadow on April 1, 2004 10:25 AMMy apologies, Naomi. SHE probably was violently ill when she realised she couldn't use her l337 M1 Garand or M16-style BAR.
Peace.
Posted by: Meadow on April 1, 2004 10:27 AMThis is a great game.
Perhaps you can find some amish guy who can create a game that is to your liking?
Like, most video games are based on conflict.
Was this review written by greenpeace or something?
Posted by: bob on April 1, 2004 10:33 AMHorrible review. First of all, you don't have to have a joystick. Anyone with an IQ of 34 and the ability to use keymapping (or Options-controls menu in other games) can set whatever they want to any keys, or their mouse. By the way, how many games can you find that you DON'T have to have a joystick to fly a plane? (Bf1942 doesn't count. The flight in that game is ridiculous.)
Second, your unorthodox usage of the English language would be beyond the reach of the average Polish peasant, the apparent victim that gave reason for your silly little crusade. Handy-dandy thesaurus of unnecessary phrases, eh?
The monthly charge is very simple to find if you actually try, and is much cheaper than most MMOG's you'll find.
Anyways, give the game a try sometime if you bring your head out of your Germglish speaking arse(it's Stielhandgrenaten.) You might actually like it if you sincerely try it this time. Oh, and I would think that virtually killing little electronic bits of information would be much "like, cooler, dude," than going out and buying a gun and trying to start your own war.
Posted by: Vezina on April 1, 2004 10:45 AMNot a game for adrenaline junkies. If u require constant action with little preparation, then dont play it. What makes this game worthwhile is the preperation and the coordination for planned attacks to be successful. The other ppl on this board probably rip on it because u have to have 'friends' to succeed. One bored dude/dudette isnt going to capture Luxembourg by his or herself. You actually have to hook up with a squad, make friends, and be a leader. That is why I play this game, because I like to lead, not just kill stuff at random. If u are inept at making friends and playing cooperatively, you wont like this game.
As for the "bugs" or lower quality software, this is true with any pvp game. SWG and others have it easy, they have no historical data or doctrine to adhere too. CRS actually has to make an effort to make vehicles and weapon systems capabilities somewhat accurate. As far as the other stuff, it is a work in progress, and it is/has become a better game.
Posted by: thnder21 on April 1, 2004 10:47 AMThis game has the most dedicated playerbases I have ever seen. Surely the markings of a great game.
Get of your high horse and drop the fanatic attitude. So you want to burn this game? Whats next, book burning?
Posted by: Janz on April 1, 2004 10:52 AMwow a collection of wankers on one forum.
Posted by: DaMINT on April 1, 2004 10:56 AMI started playing WWIIOnline about two months ago. It really is a great game! It definitely has its faults, but so does all software. I only just signed up with a squad today, but I've happened across a few in the field. Playing alongside squads makes all the difference!
As a relative newbie, I can say that this game has a pretty tough learning curve. You'll "die" a lot at first. You might not even know why, but you'll learn. Also, information on how to play isn't easy to find at first. But once you start poking around, you can find all that you need and much more. Plus, there's a great community in the forums ready to help. If you want to learn while playing, go to a quiet town on defense and start text chatting with teh other players. Most players are quit mature and very happy to help out.
If you want a game where you run out and shoot whatever moves, this really isn't the game for you. Instead, if you want a game where patience, tactics, strategy and skill are critical, spend some time and a little money on wwiionline.
In regards to the review by naomi, I recommend some critical thinking. Most of the bloggers on this site look like they went to a liberal arts college. I'd expect a little more thought and research before doing a review from you guys. As a humbling reminder, your website has been "teaching to suck eggs" since 2003 - not even a teenager in internet years. Meanwhile, wwiionline has been around since 2001. Should your site last three years and generate the numbers of users and revenue, I'll be impressed.
Posted by: Julien on April 1, 2004 10:58 AMf*ck you perversion a-holes.

Posted by: wound on April 1, 2004 11:13 AMI've been playing WWIIOnline for about 2-1/2 years. In that time I've never had any regrets. Actually, my only regret is that I wasted my time posting in this useless forum.
Posted by: Axion on April 1, 2004 11:13 AMIt's pretty funny how you guys have no idea what you're talking about.

Posted by: raz on April 1, 2004 11:29 AMObviously the author of this review gets paid to write reviews for games they haven't played, or takes so little time to get to know the subject matter that his/her opinion means squat.
Let me know when you hire someone that actually puts more time in playing the game than writing about it - until then I believe this will be the last time I stop by here.

and Saddam Hussein reviews "American Empire 2004"
Posted by: Stolly on April 1, 2004 11:35 AMWorst review ever. It is obvious you know shit about the game but decided to write a review anyway.
Posted by: Pakmule on April 1, 2004 11:36 AMWWIIOnline is the greatest freaking game in the entire world!
If you've ever played Squad Leader and ever wished you could get into the board...
The game is brutal. There are no "hit points". There are no "skills". There are no +5 rifles of hitting. There is, however, a large learning curve where you learn how to stay alive on a brutal battlefield. You take a bullet? Most likely you are dead. There are no Rambo's in WWIIOnline.
As for the OP, WWIIOnline is probably much more beneficial for war lovers to play. There are no illusions there. You die and you die easy. Rambo wannabies soon realize that such people would end up dead in a real war and that your buddies are needed to be effective.
Posted by: Murf64 on April 1, 2004 11:36 AMWell, this was a rather intersting review. Intersting as most of it was complete rubbish. First off, it never actually mentions the game play, which is superb.
Second it, for some reason, assumes the player base is war obsessed. Actually, the general age of players is somewhere in the 30s and many are vets who have seen war. They know its horror better than you probably ever will.
And thirdly, there have been people saying the game was going to go under since launce. You know, one day they'll be right, but not for years to come.
Fourth, if your going to mock someone by using another language, atleast use one of the free online spell checkers.
Fifth, there is no joystick requirement. One of my squad mates, who is on the top 100 bomber pilots list, uses keyboard only. Granted I dont know how he does it, but he does.
Sixth, you imply that there are Neo-Nazis in the game. This is not only wrong but on the edge of insulting. You have obviously not played the game, or interacted with the community, yet you have the gaul to call us Nazis? There were people who tried that years ago and they were run out of the game. If tar and feather had been available we would have done that.
And I shall leave it at six points. Thats six more than were valid in your review. If you chose to respond I will take it as it comes.
To those interested in the game take a look at it. Paitence is good to have as the learning curve is steep, but worth it.
S!
Muhler
The reviewer is obviously retarded, Be nice to her.
Posted by: Stege on April 1, 2004 11:46 AMYou are teh suxxor!
Posted by: on April 1, 2004 11:46 AMLet break down this review critically.
Your problems were:
1. Price, you could not find it. Like someone said, 2 click of the mouse. Not a problem.
2. Joystick, wtf, the only thing i had to do is buy one and it worked. Not a problem
3. the subject matter. WWII, OMG, the horror! Backyard Baseball more your speed? To each his own.
What you didn't mention was the gameplay, the vehicles, weapons, the community, the constant additions, organization, tactics, etc. That leads me to the conclusion that you did not play the game. If I am wrong, what was your screen name? It also leads me to the conclusion that you are desperate and running out of material. Never fear though, you still have that chicken to choke.
Posted by: tompy on April 1, 2004 11:47 AMI would suggest that you actually play the game for a little while, BEFORE you review it.
Posted by: Millerha on April 1, 2004 11:52 AMmany Military Veterans play this game, and they aren't complaining about gameplay or anything. Did you actually install the game? If so, then you must be stupid and played in the Offline Training Mode.
Get your head out of your ass and be responsible the next time you write a review.

Posted by: no one on April 1, 2004 11:58 AMWhat a waste of time and valuable web space on the internet this site is...
Have you ever been in a war missy? Do you know anyone that has been in a war lady? Of course, war is not pretty, but it's good that people study them and learn about them. We should NEVER forget what brave people did for you and I. A game portraying WW2 isn't bad, it's a frikin game, a historical game at that.
You need to get your head examined if you think people are running around thinking war is a joke after playing such a game, if anything else, they learned a LOT about WW2 while playing. From vehicles, weaponry, troop types, transports, planes, ships..... and every War memorial day, I hear they have a cease fire and fly missing man formations in the air.
You know nothing about what you reviewed... I would like to say get it straight or no one will look to your website for such a review in the future, but it's not worth me looking at ever again anyways.

You can have mindless fun if you want.
Or you can have a life like war sim where you spend 6+ hours on mission on Saturday morning.
A 6 hour mission where you hide and watch for prey then snuff them out and move to another spot.
You need to eat dont you? Find an old burned out building to hide in for a half hour. Come out refreshed and begin your hunt again.
Its the only game I can think of where you can kill 20 guys in like 5 minutes and have a killer time or kill 20 guys in 6 hours and be so immersed and into it that you have no idea the real world is out there.
I like the night and day cycles. I like peeking out of my bush and seeing 30+ panzers heading to a rally point and busting thier asses up with one call on the radio to and air squad.I like swimming across a river and crawling out of the banks and up behind an infantry guarding a flag outpost and knifing him. Capturing that flag and then hiding with my rifle in an elevated spot and sniping the guy who comes to take flag back.
I like the statistics. I like being on a team that has 100+ guys going to the same battle.
I like lurking off to the side of the battle and sniping infantry who are trying to flank the battle.
Wow what a game! Im getting good at flying and tanking too! 5inch guns on deystroyers are pretty devestating also.
Looks like the reviewer forgot to actually use the software she was reviewing. Hrmmmmm?
Peace!
LMAO
How many other games would garner this kind of a response to your craptastic review....says a lot about the game and its fanbase.
Posted by: on April 1, 2004 12:31 PMOk, I admit it. I am a bloodthirsty war mongerer. My room is filled
with military artefacts and my walls covered with pictures of destruction.
When I play this game I put on military marches and I wear the appropriate
uniform (I have a complete collection but am missing 1940 French underwear
and 1941 German socks, the black ones).
That being said, after 16 hours in a row of killing pixels and seeing virtual blood
in WWIIOL I don't feel the need to go out and do it for real.
War is not nice, as would say some famous people. Might as well do it virtually.
Posted by: Zakk on April 1, 2004 12:36 PMOh and about the graphics not being top notch...
Try going for a little walk in this game.
It takes weeks of nonstop solid gameplay just to walk across the map "weeks"!
If you ran off in the wrong direction you could spend 4 hours trying to get back and still never find your base. (if you didnt use map button).
One of my favorite things to do for the first year of playing this game was to go for walks around embattled towns. Sit on a hill with my binocs and watch pnzr groups and anti tank gun batteries battle it out. Then you see the air boys show up and with a little radio direction they pummell they opponents and clear the way for the foot sloggers.
One day I was taking a little smoke break while hiding in a bush a mile above a city on a hillside when all of a sudden i hear a rumble.
One of the biggest guns in the game is being pulled up by a half track right next to my bush.
One pop of the rifle to the drivers head made sure of no quick getaway. 4 more rifle cracks later the entire gun crew is dead and the gun is rolling out of control down the hill. It is the size of a winnebego and it smashes into the trees and then spawns out.
So yeah the graphics arent top of the line but the game world is. Its a trade off. You can see with the naked eye in this game mountains that are miles off. Speck on the oceans horizon that are slowly approaching ( enemy ships).
No other game compares.
Thanks for your time.

Wow, a war game is penalized because it's about war?
Hmmm. I guess he went in thinking it was a "Sims Online" type thing and was shocked to discover tanks and planes....
Anyway, if you like a game that involves shooting AND thinking AND teamwork then you'll love WWIIOL. If you don't like war then you're a moron for even trying the game. (it does have "WAR" clearly in the title!!)
In conclusion, Mox Rox, Bushman is a redneck and the game will NEVER, EVER have parachuting dogs.

Cornered Rats Software (CRS) has came a long way since the game first came out, going back many years there was some real funny bugs which we still look at now and laugh. Aiming faward and shooting the guy behind you lol, (still makes me laugh) but over the years the game keeps getting better and better, I will ask you;
1) Which game makes you drive supply (Armour/Inf/Air/Naval) up to the front line to make your attack sucessful?
2) One attack lasting 5-6 hrs and still not over???
There is not many games out there like ww2 online.
Now if your thinking Battlefield 1942 well i'm sorry but all you do is spawn into the arena and grab what ever and drive it off, 2 mins later its back there.
WW2 Online is one of the best games ive ever played online. You dont just run around and kill people you need stratagy, alot of thinking to be sucessful for your side,

Try it and i promiss you, you will never play another game again.
Obviously this review was the merit of little to no research. It's always nice to waste your readers time.
Thanks for letting us know in advance that we will need to get a second job to afford the 12.99 monthly fee. Lucky for me, I've been saving my money the last few months, so I can swing the 19.99 initial software expenditure, that is, if my financial analyst approves this high risk investment.
Graphics are important, but when you have thousands of people with different systems, and internet possibilities, you can't really go nuts with the graphics. They actually look pretty good.
Most people that play the game aren't concerned with the graphics, however, because they are too immersed in the gameplay. When I stop playing, my world is made up of rows of astrisk shaped trees and bushes...and I love it.
This site sucks, and I'm out.

Not fanoboy stuff but people dont like to be

I play WW2 Online on a 28k modem, it's all I can afford with my can collecting job.
McDonalds won't hire me, I look too much like a retard.
I like to wear my helmet to bed.
Posted by: Bilton on April 2, 2004 06:34 AMI'm sorry, but what kind of a site hires the mentally deficient to write reviews?
Posted by: ANAL SEX on April 2, 2004 06:54 AMApparently Useless Software? What illicit drugs is this reviewer taking?
A little known fact that someone who had never actually played the game or kept up with it's development would be unaware of. The U.S. Department of Defense has approched CRS about using their engine in training. Now if it was such "Crap", would that be the case? The answer is obviously "No".
It's quite obvious to me and anyone else who has played WWIIOL for more then 5 minutes, that the original reviewer, never played this game and wrote a fraudulent review. If she's paid to do this, she should be fired!
Fanboi! Fanboi! Fanboi!
Posted by: longdongsilver on April 2, 2004 08:04 AMWhat morons
Only morons review games without playing them
Only morons make chicks review a war game
cheese n rice what morons
Posted by: on April 2, 2004 08:34 AMPROOF SHE HASN'T PLAYED IT!
'but we suspect the price is beyond the reach of the average Polish peasant'
She assumes a game set in early WWII has the Poles in it - WWIIOL doesn't.
'tard.
Posted by: Meadow on April 2, 2004 08:40 AMI really wonder, why a half ass 13 year old kid's opinion should matter on this awesome game. I guess it was to hard for your little 'I wanna play Quake' mentality. Well, guess what: When you grow up, you are more than welcome back. Otherwise, go tell your daddy about this game - He might have the brain for it...
Posted by: Lt. Col. Ding Dong on April 2, 2004 08:57 AMthe best review i have ever seen for this allied sidebiased P.O.S. the history of wwiiol consists of allies loosing 90% of all maps now crs hands victory to the allies on a silver tray
eg spitfires in game can do a continuos loop
eg the m3 stuart was modeled with 2x the front armor it should have
CRS is consistantly lying to game members changing equitment with no notice problems wih the game are ignored untill the community anger reaches epic proportions
played it overall rank for this game
5 stinky turds
Sister
Have you ever spent one single second in the game?
huh?
Let slip the dogs of virtual war!

Posted by: on April 3, 2004 11:38 AMThe worst part? Every comment here in favor of WWIIOLwas written by one insecure 12-year-old in his mother's basement.
Posted by: on April 3, 2004 03:15 PMIt always amazes me to see the number of morons who take a PvT review seriously. Does no one in this world understand satire? Or Twin Peaks? Or why anime is so popular? Or why that huge monster under the keyboard keeps looking at me with those blood red beady eyes and slobbering all over the floor and has such huge pointy teeth and is crouching ready to att
Posted by: Uncertain Future on April 3, 2004 03:48 PMSome people need to get a grip and keep gaming and real life seperate..... From experience, there is no comparison to real combat.. If you play this game or any other combat game then go out there and experience a real life or death situations it does not even come close. I play games for the enjoyment of doing something without personal danger....(except when my wife finds out that I have been playing all day and neglection my chores.)
Anyone that compares this to real war, most likely needs to go out and experience more of actual life and get away from the keyboard.
Posted by: reality check on April 4, 2004 10:26 AMFanboi! "reality check" is yet another retarded fanboi!
Posted by: longdongsilver on April 4, 2004 12:00 PMBefore passing sentence on a game you should try it first. This is a fun game that offers you the chance to Fly, Tank, Boat, or use infantry in a combined manner like no other game before. Each apect of the game in my opinion offers a good amount of realism and fun.
I hope those that have not tried the game will give it a go before you dismiss it.
BTW, their are already Amish in the game... Me!
