Frontline: Fuel of War

Tried this out on the 360, quite good... anyone tried both the PC beta and xbox version?
 
Im really, REALLY tempted to get this, but i think i have to hold myself back until the demo. I loved BF2 and 2142, so it should be a winner, looks like there a whole bunch of cool things put into it to spice things up :). Anyone know when the demo is ? I heard early March.

It annoys me why you pay more to download the game then buy it on DVD. This can be had for £20 on all the normal game websites

Is this mainly made for multi-player. I see there are some single player missions but is it multi-player where its at?

In much the same way BF2 is, yes.

There is a "Single Player" Campaign, but from what I can tell, they are a essentially maps with Bots on with set objectives with the gameplay being very open and none linnear.
 
damn PC crashed at the end of the install and i couldn't be bothered to redo so i just booted it up and it worked. Max detail 1920*1200 runs nice and smooth so far but i have the horrendous ingame freeze problem a lot are having so i'm just trying the suggested fix..

http://www.kaosstudios.com/ffow-patches/ patch released also

Patch Notes:

• Holding the TAB key will display the scoreboard.
• Server browser will not show servers that are no longer running.
• "ResolveScenePosition" crash fixed.
• Motion blur overload when redeploying fixed.
• Autobalance - first person on a server can now switch teams.
• Player model is no longer visible when ascending steep inclines.
• Parental controls now work. (Windows Vista)
• Using ALT+TAB to minimize game will now function correctly.

As noted in the README file we're also preparing a dedicated server tool and have minimized the size of the server build.

We are in the process of bringing up more 1.0.1 servers and will be monitoring their performance.

This patch does not fix the SecuROM and Vista issues. We are working around the clock to addresses these and we will update you as possible.

Was just going to post about the foilage that was the same problem on the beta its with 8800 cards and tbh they should have sorted it from beta to final.

Is it possible this will interfere with the game? I don't think I'll be getting it if it does. I've got an 8800 and can't be bothered taking that foil off and putting it on again just for one game. :mad:

;):D

Hmm may grab this later or wait around for the demo.
A patch on day -1 never fills me with confidence :p

It does show they are committed though.

Would rather they released a patch on day 1 than day 2 :)
