    World in Conflict Impressions, PC

    The game is out now. I just got mine from my GameStop, who is always on point with their releases. The sales girl said they started selling them on Thursday. The game runs great so far on medium setting with more than about 3/4 of the extra detail stuff turned on. The look is not ground breaking on that level, however it still looks and plays good. The combat is intense with lots of orders to follow, and Russians coming at you from all corners. There seems to be plenty of Air, and artillery support so far, then again, it is early game. Could you believe this game is in a paper back? WTF? Any way, like any other gamer I haven't looked at the instruction manual. I do know its 45 pages though. I did multiplayer in the demo, and it felt like utter chaos. So I haven't bothered with it in the full version, yet. The main story so far have me interested, along with the other stories the game throws in on you for your character. You are also introduced to other commanders, whom fight along side of you (NPC) and they also seems to have their own stories too.
    This is very refreshing for me, especially after purchasing RE4 for PC yesterday. Which by the way will be up for trade soon.

    I used Belarc for my system specs.
    Processor
    2.00 gigahertz AMD Athlon 64
    128 kilobyte primary memory cache
    512 kilobyte secondary memory cache

    Memory

    Display

    You can also use this to test your system. http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/referrer/srtest
    just select the game you are concerned about from the drop down list.

    So tell me, what other impressions do you have about Gamestop and its associates? Certainly, it sounds like you've got plenty to say!

    You would think the VM's would learn not to waste their time here.

    LOL, its a rite of passage, you're a new poster and you posted on a game you like...so of course your a viral marketer. Learn to live with it for another 1000 posts...lol

    I didnt like the chaos of the single player demo, the way it played O basically had to play twice. Once to identify all future objectives, and once more to actually win the mission. That and the inability to pause and give orders were a show stopper for me. Get rid of either however and I would get this in a heart beat

    So Mino, you're saying ebgames.com is NOT on point with their releases? Pity, that.

    Can you play either side in singleplayer? Any thoughts about the campaign? Is it one of those risk-type conquer the world (except in this case I suspect it's "reconquer America") campaigns?

    It looked great when I played it, but my desktop computer blew chunks soon thereafter and my laptop doesn't have enough disk space, so I'm not playing it anytime soon.

    It's a scenario based campaign with frequent orders to "capture this strong point" or "hold this bridge".

    Other impression on Gamestop?
    What, like they take for ever to ring you up?
    How you have to hear about what's in the game while they look for your disk?
    What else...PC gaming section is down to half or a 3' gondola?

    My point is. when everyone else has broken the street date these fool will not sell anything until the listed date.

    Look at the fucking errors. Their character is quite obviously that of someone whose native language is not English.

    Well, they could be outsourcing VMs.

    Game won't work in MP until the 18th as MASSGATE not enabled. In terms of the SP

    You're kidding me? The campaign mission that they supplied was the first one and very much a get to know the interface one - as such it was incredibly easy - well for me and I rate myself quite poorly on this type of game.

    Have to wait till the 21st over here so interested in impressions - poorly written or not ;)

    Yeah, but either way he's literate.

    If you mean "has it hit the torrent sites," the answer is yes.

    Hold your horses; it won't be released until the 18th. There is, however, a demo (which I have not played).

    Alas, being in south America means that it'll probably arrive:

    a) In Spanish.

    b) Three months from now, when I'll be back in the states.

    THUSLY, D2D or some other solution would be ideal. The demo has been played, it has been weighed and measured, and has been found as satisfactory.

    Jesus, Tals and Mysterio. My initial post was aimed directly at the 'good' fuckup. I used 'good' in place of 'well' in my further posts to make fun of the original poster, myself, and those who didn't get my first post! We all suck ball sacks! Once again, I hoped for more and got less. When will I learn to expect less so that I might gain more?

    The first time it was amusing, the subsequent times it looked like you did have a problem with it :)

    I have the same issue with people replacing did with done. Ahhhhh

    Glad it was meant to be in jest.

    Now lets get back to the impressions :)

    No, if you check Massives forums you'll see that stores are releasing it early in the US. Means people will be able to play the SP component but massive won't open the MP part until the 18th.

    p.s lol anyone else feel like we're having to check and recheck these posts :)
