From what I have read etc BornToKill is bang on the money. Because the AI is dynamic and actually makes decisions based on what is happening, what it's heard/seen/plans then quick saving becomes an impossibility. It's easy enough to do when enemy actions are scripted or confined by a few set behaviors/conditions but not when they make active decisions on what has happened previously.

True but GRAW is coming very close to a great if not even perfect military simulation. However the positive aspect between reality and this is, in GRAW you won't physically die if you get shot - but you'll get an adrenaline burst if the experience is intense and believable enough! ← I must admit, we're going to go round and round in circles because I actually disagree with both of you above points (well not actually the points but your basic standpoint) From what I've seen and heard, no matter how fantastic a job GRIN have done this is still Far from being a perfect or nearly perf

No offence taken my friend, i'm old enough and ugly enough to take forums with a pinch of salt. But (and I hope you take no offence) tbh if you want to feel like a real soldier then frankly GR:AW or ANY other GAME is not gonna cut it no matter how many bells and whistles you add.

I have no idea how it crept in here but OTS view was not part of the discussion. The two views described were FPV (As in [GR], no body, no weapon, just a crosshair) and FPWV (First person Weapon View, as in most FPS's UT, Quake etc, you see your weapon and a crosshair). Let's keep OTS (Over the shoulder) view out of it, it's finished, not in the game. Back on track, personally I fail to see the actual advantage of a 'Free look' function but I do see one disadvantage. Picture this, Your proceding down a street say and you 'Free Look' to the right and see a Tango pop up from behin

I say No.3 It's a trick, he dressed up as a woman for the photo shoot (or mebbe he just like's the feel of nylon )

I'm a bit worried too. I have never had a problem with Starforce until Lockdown. Suddenly I was experiencing random BSOD's not just in Lockdown but in general. Took me a while to trace the problem but removed the SF drivers 3 weeks ago and my system has been stable since, not one BSOD.

WHY???????? Tom Cruise has a movie coming out in may, he answers all types of questions about the movies, trailors come out, so we get excited about movies. I do not see what the big deal if he answers some questions about MP. Example. Bo, is there going to be 32 or 64 players on a map. Bo: Answer, there will be 32. Wow, I really dont think other game companies are going to want to "copy" that and incorporate in their games and releash it before GRAW comes out. ← My question is WHY can't you read the very first post. Let me make it simple for you. Sheesh

3 good examples of in game physics. The first one employs the Ageia PhysX card Ageia Movie The second two are NVidia's own Physics on GPU Movies NVidia

Lol, Lying on icy ground so long your clothes actually freeze to it and having to pee on your hands to make em work is something 'they' do but it don't mean I wanna have to do that in the game m8

As long as it's a one off insertion then thats fine, in BF2 you can use a chute on anything high enough to jump off, man it sux TBH I don't care what they put in SP as I'll never get past the first mission, once I learn the keys etc it's off to MP for me

I'm probably gonna get flamed something rotten for this but tbh I hope the Parachute never makes it into the game. It's starting to sound more and more like BF2 every minute and I for one would rather it stay more tactical and not have people dropping in from all angles and doing the stupid crap they pull in BF2.

Take a chill pill capteenix, your not gonna get much support from the majority of people here with that attitude

Hi Col, If we get someone to ask questions I would like to know the following. 1: I would like confirmation (not some "Yes we are aware of it" answer) of the number of players in MP Co-op (How many RL teammates on my team against the AI in a mission scenario) 2: Admin capabilities for Dedicated servers (Rcon type control etc) 3: CrossCom usefulness in Co-op, Can you set teammates waypoints? Can you issue teammate commands? (Teammates = RL players on your team)

Microsoft decided long ago NOT to allow keyboard/mouse support for game control in the XBox360 because it unbalances gameplay in multi-player between those that have keyboard/mouse and those who don't. --Logos ← I realise the why m8 just answering his question

Unfortunately not m8 as long as they keep making you guy's use that horrible controller. It's a physical impossibility to make the movement as fluid or accurate as a mouse with a thumb stick. Not a limitation of the XBOX 360 just the control method.

Ok here's one for the techies. Bearing in mind Bo's comments in the screenshot thread regarding 512mb gfx cards etc i'm in a bit of a quandry as to my upgrade. Before anyone starts suggesting them I have nothing against ATI but I want to stay with Nvidia. I can get a Gainward BLISS GeForce 7800 GT "Goes Like Hell" 512MB GDDR3 VIVO TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) Or any 7900 GT 256mb for about the same price. Any suggestions. @ Bo, any suggestions would be most appreciated m8 as I want to order this today (no pressure)

Yes the 7900GTX and X1900XTX are the last "high-end" directx9 cards. DX10 cards will come around Q3-Q4 this year, even with Vista being pushed to January 2007. Bo said you will be able to run on high (texture) settings if you have a 512MB card. No idea what type of HDR is used in GRAW. There are types of HDR where EVERY PS2.0 card supports HDR+AA, and others where only ATI supports HDR+AA (Serious Sam 2). However, if they used the same type of HDR like in ES4-Oblivion, then NO card will use HDR+AA, unlikely because the new screenshots have clearly AA enabled. The game will be at the E

Great pics Bo. Seeing as the noose has loosened a bit could you give us poor saps some kind of idea what would be a good, midrange gfx card that could be SLI'd or Xfire'd in the future to get decent FPS at decent eyecandy settings. I'm not asking you to recommend a manufacturer just a range, 7600, 7800, 7900, x1900 etc. I'm looking to upgrade the 6600gt SLI rig and GR:AW is the main game and you know the specs A gentle nudge in the right direction would be appreciated by a lot of people I think m8

are you some kind of crazy? Tax return money is here and waiting... E3 will hype it up people are not in "summer mode" yet - not warm enough to go to the beach releasing the PC version now sets Christmas 06 up perfectly for expansion pack 1. and if it is delayed till Christmas this year, I will hunt you down as it was your idea. ←

Cobblers m8 Lol, just noticed, I didn't mean that offensively

I think you may have registered on the wrong site my friend. There are MANY here who do

RatoN, you can keep posting m8 but I think you are living in some sort of dreamworld to think that just because YOU think a visit is required then GRIN must comply. And as Colin said, you think that the person (oops, now it's personS) would have free reign to just try anything they wanted and come back and tell all. Even if another visit was to happen your Eutopian vison would turn out like this. US: So....what's it like then? Visitor: Nice. US: Hmmm.... So what's the MP like? Is the AI good? Visitor: I can't comment on that. US: Ok... What's the XXXXXX like then? Visit

Any chance of a relapse around about the time of the GRIN vs GRNET match ? If so I hope you get well soon m8. If not then I hope you stay ill till after then

I must say, I don't think i've ever played in a tournament/ladder that has used a game 'Vanilla' ie straight out of the box, and thats a lot of different games over the years. I think you will find most match organisers will take out ANY option that gives advantages to any team or individual. Which leads me nicely on to my next point. I gotta disagree with you on this point. Player side options should only include things which have NO impact on gameplay. Threat indicators fall heavily into this catagory. If you want to turn on or off your ammo counter fine, this will not give you an

Personally the combination of my N52 and MX1000 is gaming heaven
