1. MoDB (not sure 100%), after reading lot of stuff about it I decided to download it.

2. I was searching for realistic mods, it was realistic in macro way.

3. I think I did gren spam on a shitty vanilla vcoh map it was 3v3 can't remeber who won.

4. To much grind, promote newb helping, noobs still don't watch video tuts.

1. Where did you hear first about EiR, what were your first impressions?
I was on Filefront looking for some good multiplayer maps to download and play with my friends, then I saw this mod and watched some youtube videos to learn how it worked.

2. What made you try the mod?
The youtube videos explained everything about the game and got me interested in the mod.

3. How went your first games/first experience with the mod?
Intriguing but very sluggish. I lost so many games and had to strive to learn and get better.

4. What's your general view on things so far?
The mod is finally where it should be.

1. Where did you hear first about EiR, what were your first impressions?

I came across it in while reading the Relic forums. I was away from playing CoH for over a year and had just came back to it, so i was browsing the forums to check things out and heard about EiR

2. What made you try the mod?

Seemed very interesting and to be honest i was quite bored by playing the same maps/setups/campaigns over and over again.

3. How went your first games/first experience with the mod?

As someone said in this forum in another thread: "annihilation is an understatement"...   Well that's what happened to me in the first games i tried. It still very hard for me but I like the mod and trying hard to get to know it better.
I hope the mod is here to stay and evolve, love it!

4. What's your general view on things so far?

Hard, hard , hard and... VERY HARD! Especially on newcomers. I hope as i log in more and more games will get better. But in any case it's fun and have a very good time playing the mod. Great people here too.

P.S: I have recorded my first ever victory in a 4v4 game a couple of days ago. I might upload it so people see it and get expert opinions/suggestions etc. Was a fun game too !

1. Where did you hear first about EiR, what were your first impressions?
Tales of Heroes. Finally someone went ahead and tried to materialize persistancy, and what a platform to do it on!

2. What made you try the mod?
The concept

3a How went your first games?
Stomped'em. I remember 1v1-ing Corsix in his first game, which might have been bad for the mod He was in correspondence with fldash back then.

b First experience with the mod?
All stormtroopers, baby! (they could HT reinforce for 48 MP and retreat to spawn and come back !!!)

Actually first experience was bland, back in spring 2007 you only had preset companies, no persistance, no launcher, no doctrines etc etc

4. What's your general view on things so far?
Strong game

[Uunderfire]

1. Where did you hear first about EiR, what were your first impressions?

I saw xFire live videos, and this mod seemed very interesting.

2. What made you try the mod?

I'd like to try something new. And when I saw that we could play CoH AND EiRR distinctly (I've tried Eastern Front before but I didn't like to have the game changed) I decided to download it.


3. How went your first games/first experience with the mod?

Wow,in the first games I was stomped all times ! Now I begin to win some games.
I thought before that I couldn't win any game. But now I enjoy this game a lot (brit blob powaaaaa) !

4. What's your general view on things so far?

This game is a really alternative to the vCoH. When I've time to wait on the battle screen( yes that's for me the only defect of the mod...you need to be VERY patient ) I play it,and when I haven't time I play skirmishes.
I like the persistency of this game, and I wish this game will keep going better and better.
