    OGR vs GR:AW

    in GR:AW (PC) - General Discussion

    Posted

    If you want to go by reviews, IGN gave GR1 a 9.3 and GR:AW an 8.1. But any way you shake it GR1 shipped as a complete title. It had a full campaign (whose maps were all playable in both TvT and COOP), more players for online COOP/TvT, IGOR, and a fully functional MP component, with more than one gametype. GR:AW shipped with a finished SP campaign, but MP is lacking, majorly (both COOP and TvT). I can live with some bugs, and yes GR1 and GR:AW both have/had them, but GR1 shipped as a complete game. GR:AW PC did not. With GR1 we didn't have to wait for patches to add the MP component found in the previous Red Storm titles. As a sucessor to GR1 PC, I know I was expecting an evolved GR style MP experience, similar to 360.

    I honestly do not see GR:AW PC being as popular as GR1 was; 1 year and 2 expansions later GR1 was still rockin'. You could hop on UBI, ASE, or even this sites game room/dedi and people were playing, a lot of people. 4 months after release GR:AW PC is still lacking a fully functional MP component (by that I mean, IMO, it hasn't even reached the level of GR1 on ship) and there aren't many people playing.

    Yeah I still play it (GR:AW), but I don't rush home and start playing like I did when I first got GR1. GR1 is/was an addictive drug, you weren't always playing the same maps or gametypes. You had options and choices, and it didn't grow stale. Sorry to say, right now, GR:AW is like the bagel I didn't eat on Monday morning. . . I hope something makes me want to put in the toaster oven, or I'm going to feed it to the birds.

    --------------------------------------------------

    O so true. GRAW is food for my microwave. They shipped a BETA. :wall: We gave them 5 years. They handed us a pile of crap.

    At one time my entire clan played and modded GR1. It was like crak. One game and I was addicted. I play coop and this sux. The "commander dies mission over" that has been forced on us is pure BS. Lack of options and respawns are BS. No real game editor is pure crap also and tells me there are many bugs they dont want us to see.

    As with my friend Prozac 360 I'm gonna feed this title to my microwave rather than trade it in and let some other poor soul be ripped off by this poor excuse of a Tom Clancy title.

    Rocky and the staff ought to feel the knife UBI has put in their backs for all their hard work.

    I feel bad for them. But I feel good, noone will suffer from my copy.

    I came to the dance all giddy and ready to have fun. But UBI rained on me till my hair was a mess , my dress was wet and torn and they left me to be raped by a stinkin bunch of drunk Mexicans.

    GR-1 this is not! This is a total failure.

    I figure 45 seconds in the microwave ought to do the job. :yes: My only regret is I dont have the ablity to video the cooking and post it.

    Where did everyone go

    I know this has been stated before but why are there so few players. I mean really a new patch has just been released with a new gametype but no one DM server is full not even Dom servers. I understand that some people are shelfing this game until everything is fixed but for me I play this game everyday along with Hitman Blood Money, BF2, CoD2(rarely), Oblivion, and Far Cry. But I always come back to GRAW only to find no players. I am disapointed but maybe thats just me Wheres the love yall.

    WHAT LOVE? There isnt any.

    I'm only in this for COOP and SP... I'm not into the DM/DOM gameplay.. :g_withgrin:And I have patience to wait it all out.... Besides, when I'm not shooting, I'm racing...

    So in reagrds to noone in Servers, enjoy the few games you'll get now, cos in 6 months, there wont be any.

    Truth hurts dont it! Coop play sucks so bad i'm tossin it back in the box for another two months. Where did we all go? Anywhere but playing this joke of a beta! :angry:

    All I hear is the wind cuz there's noone here. :tumbleweed:

    Lack of COOP server controls/options Yo devs!

    Well its been a while, 1 patch, another, another. It still sucks to the point of 'why play'. :angry:

    Coop player's aint happy, at all. How many coop server do you see? 5 maybe? Thats a total failure!! No respawns, leader dies game over, thats pure bull :censored:. We cant make coop maps without a full editor!! Even if we could we cant beta test em alone.

    This all just really sucks! The proof is in the amount of games on-line.

    It's pitiful. This the laughing stock of the industry. Theres more playing old GR than this poor excuse for a beta. :bs:

    The staff here has done a great job to promote this game. I for one feel bad for Rocky and the rest of the staff. It's a damn shame.

    Give us coop options and a real editor!!! Get your heads out of your arses. A lot of us are ready to send the game back for credit on this farse. It's disgusting at best.

    PC players have been left at the dance... and the DJ really sucks.

    Someone please fire his ass!!

    The 4 slot Co-op limit needs sorting

    Oh, we are not, and we can and have said it. And believe me, nobody is hoping more for an absolutely BLINDING patch next month than me!

    -----------------------------------------------------------

    I heard that!! I feel better now, Rocky is on the job, and he ain't happy either.

    Guess we will all have to GRIN and bear it for a while... :rofl:

    We got handed an unfinished beta with a bunch of bugs. The getting in a coop server aspect is painful and then it crashes to 'cd key is funky'. :bs: Hosting is no better. Total lack of coop support there. :wall: I feel insulted and -$50. Lets face it it just wasn't ready for release. Once in game it's ok, not great just ok. Weps controls are asinine at best.

    HELP!!!!

    On play once in game a 7.5

    On coop play (what this site deals with mostly) a3. No respawns my butt. :o= Team leader dies, game over,eck05.gif

    In game controls a 2.

    On the rest a 2.

    Ill try again when the patch comes out. Im too depressed to play under these conditions.

    and to think I waited 5 years for this...

    I got $50 bucks says the staff aint too dog gone happy either but cant say it. ;)

    But I do have hope. :rolleyes:

    Lack of server controls/options Yo devs!

    Will someone please tell me why the server controls for coop play are basically not there. :( There are controls, 3. :wacko:

    Look at your old GR, plenty of control there and more was added by Modders later. But make a new game and all the lessons learned are forgotten.

    There's a serious bunch of coop players out here who cant even run more then 1 round without re-making the server. 1 play then remake. then again. It gets old. :wall:

    Theres also a lack of whats needed to run a server, filters, the ability to kick etc..

    All ignored by GRIN. Thats lame,ooh so lame. The "fix it later" mentality is apparently the norm at UBI. Clearly the PC platform has been neglected. I guess they didn't want to spend the time to ensure good play on the platform that made the game what is to begin with. :bs: We have been neglected so that x-box and play station lamers could get a good game. They got one and we have been left at the dance only to be beaten and :censored: by some Mexicans.

    PC controls of weps really is a pain in the butt! Hit one button then scroll then press another to choose.. :nono:

    You will scroll over the wep you want and get something you really cant use. A pistol when I needed AT isn't much good. Theres plenty of keys to assign weps to so get on with it please.

    By the time I do this I'm dead. I need the ability to change weps in one move! Get real! This 3 move thing sucks and sucks bad. I figured I could play coop while they sorted out the MP bugs as I did in GR1. At this rate of lack of support it might be a while till I can enjoy a normal game of coop with my friends. :brucelee: Heck we cant even mod to make things better. We're just stuck here with a beta -$50 bucks and waiting....after 5 years Im a bit miffed.

    Its a great game dont get me wrong, I love it, but.....

    Comments accepted.

    No "firefight" option in SP mode?

    Man,.... No Firefight mode ..no respawns.. ###### were they thinking? :o=

    Darn AT woint sight up either... and then all the hosting bugs im finding.

    Sloppy Grin...very sloppy. It wasnt ready and needed a lot more beta testing. Thats a fact. :wall: The lack of server control and options is stupid. Whats a coop freak to do? Why must UBI have to learn its screwups over and over again... Taking away choices and options that ought to be there just ticks me off. Bring some quality modders in for consultation and lets get on with it.

    How long till the first patch????????????:whistle:

    Is it just me or is this a bit non P.C.

    i think they (ubi or the one who decides) do not want to have screenshots of dead civies as marketing, it would bring bad press

    if in the demo there were civies, and we would have posted stranges poses with civies in them then some PC game hater would use that to say that this game was about killing people and civies, this would in turn hurt sales but would also bring folk here that would not understand GR / GRAW and spoil it for us

    i like to have civies

    because it makes for better awareness,

    then you would have to confirm/identify every encounter before opening fire

    and it makes for great mod variations for missions SP/COOP

    maybe it will come in addon or patch, maybe we just have to do without

    but i would like some civies just to be on my toes a little more

    *oops this was a bit off topic

    ================================================

    Good point! :thumbsup: Not off topic at all. Just expanded thought. :yes:

    I appreciate your comment.

    With all the hubub about millions of Mexicans (illegals) in America at the moment, it strikes me as a bit funny that GR has the ghosts killing Mexicans. I mean really now. Thats so not PC that its got a few of us laughing. Sounds like a good reason to change locations and give a lil jungle in to the maps.

    A close friend in Texas who is Hispanic told me he was quite offended by the demo. Knowing I like to mod he asked me if I had plans for a 'border' map. I bout fell out my chair laughing. But I think he does have a point. :zorro: He also pointed out that the in game ver of Mexico city is the cleanest he could ever imagine for the city, and the lack of civilians just is impossible. Having been there a few times I had to agree. There are millions there, but not one in sight. We had civi's in GR1 why not here? I told em it's just a demo, but I had to agree the lack of reality did post some doubts on the research team, not to mention the guy who decided to set this in Mexico. :blink: A bad move perhaps.

    O and just for the record I will not be making a 'border' map.

    Im sure someone will, just not me. :tumbleweed:
