hm wtf is wrong with this game: I have 4 men and Im driving a tank with all of them on it. And one idiot always jumps off the tank for no reason. And even doesn't get hurt. He just falls behind all the time.
And this fog of war thing SUCKS. Like I cant c shit in this game.
In short:
This game has some interesting things that are good. But some things that FUCK it up badly.
Soldiers HoWW II FTW and was better than this.
Maybe there is going to be a patch that fixes some of the problems. And for me it seems that this game has problems with dual core cpus. Sometimes when a lot of things happen like cars crash etc my frame rate drops to 5 fps. Usually its over 50. And my CPU isnt that slow that it cant handle the little physics that this game has. Dint have any problems with Single core (not that powerful than this X2) on S HoWW II.
Dont like this 6 men team that much. I liked the tactical and sneak type of game that SoHoWW II was. I just dont like to lose any of my men but since there is so much shit on the screen I cant keep up with all my men running around and getting killed.

this game is nice but the bugs it has kills it. And the fog of war is to much. Like how the hell cant you c 5meeters from where you are. Thats just stupid. Why dint they just stick to the old SHoWW II game play and elements and it would have been better game.
I loved ShoWW II. In my opinion it was the best and most realistic WW II strategy game because of the vehicle damage and the fuel and 100% destructive environment.
And this bullets ricochet is over done. No way bullets act like this in real life.
hm and in this game cant you repair the tank if it has taken havy damage? I seem to have problems repairing my main gun

I want to like this but I can't.
It's too rough, it's too bugged.
A sniper in one mission simply wouldn't die I surrounded him with SMGs and was shooting him to death for about 5 minutes. What a crock of shit.
This game has so much promise but what the hell happened?
I Loved the original (for the most part), the missions were straightforward but open ended. You'd get a tank, a few guys and then go about your business as you saw fit (especially fun with coop partners). But here... it's just so shitty.
Hard to put my finger on it and I'll be honest I've not really given it much time but unless there is a super magical patch which makes it good I will have to just pass on this.

Some thing that I personally hate (loved the ShoWW II so no one cant say that this isn't my type of game):
You can't fix the tank if it has damaged more than the wheels (@ least i cant to it).
You can't but your men inside the building as easily as in the Soldiers Heroes of WW II. It s fucking hard to get them where you want to. For example: in one mission there is a church and a tower. I wanted to but my sniper there but after 5min of trying I cave up because its impossible.
The fog of war is over done. And it seems that the enemy just spawns without warning from nowhere. And because of this fog of war they always manage to take me down. I cant to 10 things at the same time you know and if I see them only if they are about 2meeters from me then how the fuck I should have time to react (they are hitting with full force). And that's not all: the enemy always has supper sight in this game so no fog of war for them.
The men are sometimes stupid and running around. They should look for cover but instead of that they get killed.
In short: this game shows how fucked up Soldiers Heroes of WW II could have been. And luckily it wasn't.
Maybe a patch can fix it.

Yeah that's another thing. I put my men in cover, have them go prone and then they are standing up allowing themselves to get shot by sniper fire. This game just reeks  I so want to get back my copy of soldiers as I gave it away to my nephew. I want to see how much worse this really is or whether it's just my imagination.

I played soldiers tons of times and believe me: it was much better.
For example: the building are even stronger so you cant destroy a wall of a building with one explosive round using a tank. But you still can use explosive nades to do it.
They just fucked up a perfectly good game. Soldiers Ho WW II was hard ? YES but I loved it because it was nicely done. But this Faces of war (who the fuck came up with that name) is just wrong.
going to play it some more to c if some missions are going to change my mind. |

Are there any levels in this game where you have to build a base and make vehicles and soldiers?

This is not a base-building RTS.

i saw people complaine about unpassable mission (the one with the ship and the base...you have to shoot down the ship) so...anyone passed this?
or this is the last point in the game and from that point - no more?

QFT. They should have just taken the SHOWW2 controls and commands and such and gave it the graphics engine facelift. There is a few things new I like(how soldiers become stunned after a heavy barrage) but most of it is trying to change the game just because other games do it or they wanted to list more features.
Messing with a known good formula = bad.
Still is a very good game, but as good as it could have been if they didn't try so hard to change things? Nope.

Under the 'resource' folder there is game.pak which has all the good stuff. I unpacked the "set" folder which has all the settings and currently tweaking somethings to make it more like the first game. Like changing fow from 120 deg to 270 when you arent in a vehicle...since a soldier can turn his head and all..  Also tried changing the view distance, set it pretty high and could see all enemies on the map, too far, hehe. Anyways some good stuff, thought I'd share.. |
thanks for the info |
