10 things you like about GRAW at it's current post.

[ROCO*AFZ*]

This is for what you LIKE only. For the moaners, start your own thread.

This is in no specific order except in the order which i thought of them.

#1 Community with the Developers actually being part of and there honesty. (we do appreciate the straightforward honest answers GRin)

#2 Modability (although the map editor is still developing)

#3 Team Deathmatch

#4 Many movement features

#5 Net code is way better then most games at this point. 150 -200 pings still don't seem to have any lag

#6 Single player campaign rocks (from what i played... as then i went to MP)

#7 Even though everyone complains about gamespy... there is no way to spoof your name as you own the name and the password

#8 Sound - GRAW's sound effects are incredible! (richochet's, cars getting cut apart by support, the echo off the buildings when someone is firing)

#9 Some of the Developers even playing the game with you. Bumbi and hanke have both been in our server playing. Nothing like shooting and being shot by a person who helped make the game

#10 Map + Game details. Little nooks and such where people can hide. Not being able to see into dark area's until your eyes adjust without night vision.

[ToW-Angel]

*SALUTE* Definitely #1 for me! The community makes the game, not the game making the game.

From the last game I played compared to this one...

The community is daylight and my last game the darkest ages.

For me, it's more about the community than the game... I have a fun time playing it with others, but still the community makes the game, not the game making it a game.

[Pulaski]

#1 Community, for taking a good stand by not supporting the game in it's current state.

Sorry I can only come up with one at this time.

[OliverReed]

#1 Splash movie

#2 Quality of the DVD case - this is gooood plastic.

No - thats it.

[zulater]

1) GRIN hasn't bailed yet

2) It wasn't canceled like GR2

3) Great learning experience, ie don't expect the final release to be different from the demo

4) I like the slide/dive to cover

5) combat/dry reloads keep correct count of rounds

that's all i got.

from my understanding grin didn't do the netcode roco, rse did.

[sui317]

1 grin

2 the gameplay variations(you do not have to play it in one specific way, you can play how you want to play)

3 the sp tac-map

4 the multiplay overview

5 the community members and grinners that help mods get to the next level

6 the map editor (even in the not yet finished version, lacking coop mission editing)

7 the detail and fun in the dynamic props

8 the sounds are phenominal

9 just saw this today, in one of the HH maps you have a sea sight view

the sea splashes on the rocks, and it Rocks visualy and audiably

10 the grin logo on the cover of the retail version and the patches (keep 'em commin')

[}PW{ Postal]

This covers my answers too.

1. Modability. We finally have splattering blood, which is something that was promised ("The gore level will be on par with GR1.")

2. Hit detection. Every round you fire will land at your designated target. Your ping doesn't affect it, you'll still kill someone.

3. Stability. The 6600 GT is a 2 year old card. It's time to upgrade for those of you that still have it. GRAW runs amazingly well and STAYS running well after a period of hours of play at a time.

4. Destruction. This is the only FPS that comes to satisfy in terms of destruction. Almost anything can be blown up. Not only that, GRAW isn't even focusing on destruction as one of it's main features.

5. Models. The best I have ever seen, ever.

[NOX]

I am not one for fancy game play or visuals so take it as is.

I like the grit, they got the theme right.

I like the large maps.

I like the weapon recoil.

I like the damage model, but want more to slow down run and gun.

They are trying at GRIN.

UBI's pockets, keep sending the checks to Bo. (UBI's duty not GRIN's)

GRIN reads this Forum in the morning.

Time to reload is good.

Nade fragmentation is accurate.

Running is good, but should slow over sprint time.

Pack weight is good and effects ability.

Sound is to good-it is almost superman, too easy to absorb-fog of war?

[viiiper]

10

1.Good Map editor.

2.Very good sound field.

3.Attention to detail [graphical] very good.

4.Playability on 100+ mS lag good.

#1 Support from Grin (and the community)

#2 Great modding possibilities

#3 Sound effects

#4 Character animations, and physics

#5 Game visuals (both quality, and style)

#6 SP campaign/gameplay pwns

Well, it's only six, but it's enough for a good game.

[RAbbi_74]

I choose to work in a number other than 10, but here's the short list...

1.) UBER cool develpers

2.) Insanely cool community

3.) GREAT single-player campaign with expansion written all over it

4.) SUPER sound

5.) Destructible environment

6.) KICKIN' weapons

7.) Superior enemy AI

8.) Good integration of combined arms fire support (artillery, armor, CAS, CCA)

9.) Imaginative MP mode (DOM) (didn't receive enough credit)

There are more, but I picked 9 as my magic nhumber, so as to NOT confuse this thread with all the other Top Ten List ones out there. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to live with myself for replying...

[MattiasWiking]

from my understanding grin didn't do the netcode roco, rse did.

No, we wrote it all ourselves.

I really like the game, and wilst i have some trouble with it too i will remain summing up the good

1 graphics, (just look at screenshots of other games and you see how far ahead GRAW is)

2 sound (kicking cans makes you stop and look around, though i have never heard someone else kick a can....?)

3 gameplay the game is awfull, lot of fun SP and MP

4 toughness, this is no easy game, but still you get the grips, and if not.... buy a FPS

5 community, though there are not many full servers, teh ones (mostly clanservers) are a good game

6 GRIN for listening and trying to adress all game-issues other than player taste( one likes other things than another, so only technical stuff is really important)

7 movement, that slide is really awfull, I only wish I could see the dirt others kick around.... (should give you away)

8 gamemodes I like them all, only the given maps are somewhat small sometimes (HH)

9 Forums are active, and the majority acts mature (after some startup whiners, but most of them are gone)

10 I cant think of anything else so i'll quit this post.

This game really kicks, I am waiting for all mods to come out, and after some old GR games I really see the progress made..... (that was easy killing back then, only my PC was too slow at that time.....lol)

[Wille]

3 gameplay the game is awfull, lot of fun SP and MP

hehe...awfull? a good thing?

Oops my bad English came out.... awfull should be awesome..... (English is my 3rd language)

Dutch, German, English, French (kissing only) and some bad jokes in Swedish..... get confused sometimes

[WITCHER]

here is my immersion.

1) Grin, Grin, Grin and again Grin , (im not kidding.) :

2) Destruction, such detailed.

3) Graphics in this game i think 1 of the best so far.( im not kidding)

4) Sound in GRAW the best so far , splinter cell 3 on the 2 place.

5) Weapon detaills and Reloading animation.

6) Character detaills and animation.

7) Huge city, ive never seen that before in any other game.(im not joking)

8) Big amount of mission.

9) Multiplayer

10) Box art.

And very very sorry for my horrible english.

[Hockeystick]

...and some bad jokes in Swedish.....

Please tell us some bad swedish jokes

[Forrester]

...and some bad jokes in Swedish.....

Please tell us some bad swedish jokes

This is phonetically written but:

"Finska flikka knöller bra, Svenska flikka knöller bettar" once gave me a bleu eye (I was only ten and learned that sentence from a collegue of my father) I used it on the way home on the boat.... good times they were.

My father had an international job and frequently arranged to go over to Sweden/Finland during the holidays, taking us with him so we (brother, I and mother) could spend the day with the wife of his local collegue whilst he was at work..... seen a lot of hotels/restaurants/musea during that time. It is the way I learned English too, first told the jokes in Dutch to my father, he translated them and I would tell the joke in just learned English to the other people that heard the joke already..... but still had to laugh for my way of telling the joke. Nice country by the way Sweden, I love the surronding in Gränna (Jonkoping) But back to reality quick before I go daydreaming about the girls, landsape,and such

I agree with roco's 10 things but there should be one thing added that i miss from gr1 is the zoom factor in the scoops
