after watching this I think itll be fun, im getting it.
I like the idea of playing as evil and killing hobbits, they said you can parade through the shire slaughtering hobbits, and shooting them out of catapults.
shooting hobbits out of catapults is the next best thing to punting them
Freakin' loved Battlefront's Battle of Hoth map. Captured the movie perfectly, as I was slowly stomping my way through the fields with an AT-AT it was as if I was Veers.
sigh, and my thoughts in the single player campgain so far:
this piece of crap is pathetic..
the targeting is terrible- so it's frustrating to play as warrior
the hide of the scout don't work- the npcs know your exact location..
the bowman pawns...
the amount of units is laughable - compared to the battlefronts
i hate the announcer voice.. ("that was one nasty officer" WTF ?!?!? Is this middle earth or kindergarden ?!?)
once you loose all your life.. you restart the whole map.. and you can't skip the annoying ingame movies..
the graphics are not bad.. but you walk on a linear path, you can't go nowhere else before completing your objectives, you can't go back once you enter a new area of the map.. and so on..
and you restart the whole level when you die (even tho you finished several objectives etc), and you fight with like 5 men against 500 orcs ... right ...
this is just a stupid pos. Triggers failing (restart level ...) bugs all over the place (invisible walls preventing you from entering areas you are supposed to defend = fail = restart level), archer way too overpowered (1hit kills mostly anything, way too easy to aim ...)
hm, it's impossible to go trough the starting corridor in the moria map I guess there are some protection triggers ... or.. a very very buggy.. game...
edit: the evil campaign is locked, you must first fight as the good guys..
and in the instant action- is all the same but with different skins.. The only difference is the skills of the heroes on both sides..
Per aspera ad astra

just if it's like red alert 3 it should work. RA3 with the 1.04 patch before the next updates worked fine network and skirmish. this one should work too in lan but still to test
It pisses me off that braindead fluff like this shitty game get published and really Awesome-sounding games based on the classic LOTR license like The White Council get canned.
a lot of people said call of duty world at war was a boring arcadish scripted pos and I love it so I guess I'll love this game to (ill find out in 15 more hours lol) but i want to know is there blood and gore? when you chop threw mobs do heads and limbs pop off like in the witcher?
This game uses a ton of those .BIK video files, seems it's possible to just delete the logo movies to skip them. (The install folder and /video folder.)
EDIT: CH has a trainer out, time to hack some Orcs to pieces.
(Or Elves once I finish the good campaign, hehe.)
EDIT: Settings are stored in a INI file but there's nothing to edit that can't be altered with the ingame options and the save progress is stored in a .dat file depending on your profile name.
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
