Really? It shouldn't be, mate. DTL is free and unless you're running a VERY old version (with an ancient version of SPTD) then it really should just be a hassle-free experience not even necessitating a reboot.
I havent finished it yet, but this statement is definitely teh truth.
*update*
I've just finished it in ~4 hours and my initial impressions haven't changed: the game is dull, boring, extremely linear and guided (even more than MW2 if possible, and I thought it wasn't possible), and overall too easy even if played on Hard.
Not to mention the atmosphere that permeates the whole game and the cheesy not-so-implicit propaganda for the US army.
Final score 5,5/10. (just because the later missions are slightly more inspired than the others)
Any one know how to get pass that suppress The DSHK part? After 10000 restarts its getting boring.
uhh.... keep shooting the DShK? That's what "suppression" means. Keep shooting it, giving cover for your team to advance closer to it without being turned into Swiss cheese
There is a crack already for some time now and the game is not crap . I´m really enjoying mp. The only flaw of the SP campaign is that it was too short, but then again, so was mw2.
Right, completely agree with ixigia so far. Played three missions and I find the replay value of this game plain zero. Surely later missions will be better? I don't even remember worse first mission in any game similar to this. Playing on hardest difficulty: dull, easy, scripted, boring and NOT FUN. Just a wannabe cod SP. And how the hell they can mess up mouse so bad? Even bad company 2 single player feels three times better than this.

Nothing happens. Its not just me. i need to restart mission but uninstall is better option.
MDX is a new "ISO" format basically, it means Media Data eXtended (go figure...) and is basically the DT equivalent of MDF/MDS, only consolidated in a single file.
I know, I know.
But I have to update Daemon Tools for it to work.
Which is a chore in itself.
I updated mine last night. Didn't require a reboot or anything. Took about 1 minute.
Holy shit!!! after playing the prologue and day 1 i thought the game was just mediocre like some ppl said here before. But so far day 2 is awesome!
Spoiler:
Especially the Neptune's net mission is fucking intense! One of the best missions of the game so far! The ending was just epic. .."Bullets or broken bones?...broken bones heal" and he jumps off the cliff

Yeah, the singleplayer missions weren't anything speciel really. Actually there were several times where what you were supposed to do was very unclear, which led me to just run around and keep shooting when I should have moved on or stood at a very specific spot to trigger a script. That shit just made the game longer by around half an hour. -.-
Jonhy, the game is crap. You have to understand that.
For first 3/4 i agree it's forgettable...nothing we haven't seen before
But seems the game really starts at day 2. Wish they made the whole game like this

btw, about that bug in the mission (think it was the second one) where you have to laser paint technicals etc and nothing happens - i think i've found the definitive solution since restarting the checkpoint (and even the whole mission) did jack shit for me:
just catch them while they're up on the hill - gotta be quick, but that's about it since the bug-affected area is only about the space below horizon level
I think to many people compare this game to COD MW2 and that does this game no good... You have to see it like 2 different games. I'm wondering what people would say when this would be a new COD release... Then the game would be great??
So we have two videogame franchises which gained popularity with linear WWII-themed FPS and later moved on to the modern combat, and you think too many people compare this game to CoD: MW? Really?

For me it affected half of my screen, like split down the middle, though I could paint them right at the top of the screen when they first show up at the horizon. My solution was to see which one of the vehicles that would go from the left side in to the right side so I could paint them...and then right at the top when they arrive I'd paint the ones that would drive further to the left.
For example: First two trucks to the right I ignored and concentrated on the ones that came from the left. I knew the first one would drive into the "fire zone" so I picked the 2nd one right at the start and blew it. Then I moved over and shoot the two on the right side (which was at the end of the screen now right above the airfield)..and lastly I took care of the last one which I left out.
The tanks was more of a problem. But I notice that I could use the guided missiles and hit the targets which I couldn't reach because of the bug. Also the guided missiles did more splash damage so if I aimed right I could take out 2 at the times, sometimes 3..
But as you said, I tried restarting and even played the whole mission over..still I had the bug
Just finished the game!
Final score will be 7/10 i think. Since i really enjoyed the later missions and i think they compensate some of the more boring parts of the game.
OMG really this game is wayyyyyy to short, i just finished it in 3 hours. What a complete bullshit. MW 2 was short but this is really crap. I died 1 single time on medium :S
