yeah, thats why i wondering why it increased. Today seems to go back down to $14.99, but guild wars eye of the north increased to 20 bucks even with a 33%! it was 13 something

Yeah, all except Guild Wars (I made a personal price list myself) went back to normal not long after I make that post you quoted. Not sure if Steam missed out on it or anything but since it's not something I intended to buy, I made no noise about it. sweat.gif

Wow it's like every few months MoW is on offer.

Very good game anyway, some good missions, direct control is fun and the Gold edition will keep you busy for a long time (especially since you can integrate the content from Face of War in it and there are dynamic campaign mods for MoW too)

Only note I would put is that the difficulty can be unforgiving, even on Easy.
Some defense missions made me sweat like I rarely did...

MoW, u guys might wanna think twice, its nothing like COH lol, as Gormaz was saying, the difficulty can be "unforgiving".

u nid manage soilder ammo, gun, helmet, medikit, equiment... and there is not a squad u r managing at least platoon to a batalion lol...

the game is very realism, that y it score so high. plus, its not just pick up ammo and shoot, u gotta match the gun with ammo otherwise wait mati..

For me, its too much micro managing

Yar, the difficulty is pretty high really, the 2nd (or first?) mission where you have to defend the Russian train station for X minutes went from:

- "lol, so many troops to defend, this is going to be easy, I roxx defense missions"

to

- "Zomg they sent like half the whole german army to take that train station or what?!"

to finish by

- "Leave goddamn train, leave NAO!"

I think there was 1 german tank starting to shoot the train when it finally ended....

You do not really need to micromanage so much all your soldiers really (except for the "Commando style" missions where you command only a few) but if you direct control a lots then yar, you need to pay attentions to each soldiers and scraping munitions from the fallen bodies can make or break your game.

Same as taking over enemies heavy weapons etc.

Sometimes just direct controlling 1-2 soldiers or a tank while leaving the rest to "normal rts controls" can be enough and much more efficient.

I think there might be a demo somewhere so I would suggest folks to try it first.

In comparison CoH is super easy game, but also way less realistic.
Still I find MoW to be very fun smile.gif

IINM, from Faces of War onwards (Or maybe in the Men of War demo?), your soldiers would kinda automatically pick up fallen weapons and ammo, so you didn't need that much micro.

I played the original Soldiers, which had none of this handholding... Plus, they were mean to you from the beginning. The german campaign involved you controlling a squad of TIGER tanks... and in the 2nd mission, as you're about to take a town, the one and only Tiger your given breaks down in the middle of a fight... Leaving you with just a refurbished allied tank and 5 men...

SERIOUSLY, it was like
"Oh yeah we gots a Tiger! We's gonna pwns some nubs!"

and then

"WTF, it caught fire!"

leaving you with

"Crap, now we gotsa pwns some nubz with their nubish tanks... I hate this army"

That reminds me, I actually got this game from GG awhile back, but totally forgot about it.

There is basically two scenarios in which I HATE the AI...

One:
Oh look enemy...now he's dead...lets keep shooting at him and that location...

Two and by far the worse:
Your soldier gets revived

Oh IM ALIVE! NOW I MUST!!!! GET WEAPON WHICH I DROPPED!!!...regardless whether I have to run out of cover into the middle of a death zone
