If you have not heard of Wargame: European Escalation yet then i can forgive you, however...
Watch that gameplay montage, and pay attention to the details...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6L2uZRpX30

If your pants are unsoiled, then, then please never call yourself a "Strategy" fan again, because this is the most promising looking game I've seen in... in... since I saw the first supreme commander trailer.



I mean, hell, from that trailer alone you have...

- Huge maps
- Stats up the arse
- Ammunition level details on units
- Realistic Firing ranges

And... and so much more, but you know the best part?


Developed by fucking Eugen Systems... They made Act of War and Ruse!!! The first is pretty much the best strategy game of its class and the second is one of the best in recent years, and now they are going hardcore.

To much text, whatever, now go change those pants!



Edit: In case you missed it, it's also Nato vs Warsaw Pact... F yeah!

I hope that was some sort of unpolished beta version, because it looked like crap.

Guess what... it IS! That is fairly old footage someone put together...
But given that was the only thing you had to say, lol, this game certainly was never for you to begin with  Wink

The fact that I had nothing more to say was more a comment on how I couldn't complain about the game mechanics, but whatever, read into it however you like.

Still wont like the game,

It doesnt have the atmosphere that CoH has which is superbly done if I might say so my self.

Even when I bought starcraft it didnt appeal to me as much as CoH did, I felt like i was just sending units into a meat grinder while in CoH I am trying to keep these guys alive, its just one of the few things to name why I still play and like CoH.

The warmap is like Dukenukem Forever.

No one thinks it will ever be released, then several years after everyone has given up the little hope they have it gets released from out of nowhere. And then it turns out it sucks.

strategy PURE

nah not really

nikomas, there are really alot of different strategy gametypes. To say this one is the ultimate strategy game and everyone who dont like it is no strategy fan is a fucking lie.

graphic: bad
gamemechanics: not better then in coh, its a video so maybe iam wrong

running around with some tanks or helli sounds not that strategic lol

AND a video never totally shows if a game is ULTIMATE strategy or not.

Oh come on hans... look a bit further than just the trailer  Wink
Yeah, a lot can surely go wrong but as far as wargame style strategy game, this looks to be the best thing yet, look up a few interviews if you wonder why I'm so stupidly hyped...

All I see in this video is a shitty version of World in Conflict.

Demon posession is real and it's not funny, it's the creepiest thing you will ever experience.

I would also like to add I watch fox news everyday all day and will continue to watch it while being proud of that fact. I'm sure you enjoy your communist news network just as much.

Funny, I thought the same thing.

The video doesn't really give any real information.

Hah, Oh well, read these then...
Anyway, I've been watching it for a while and as much as I love WiC, it's pretty far from it.

You can get Sealion two different years.. one in 40 and one in 43. You've played 43. Because you never got a major victory in second part of france.
