ROFL, i am probably properly bad at this game. I've got it on easy mode, the one thing that just pure annoys me is that i can't zoom out and see where all my troops are, i have to use the mini-map which is a bit crap imo.

THe last few missions i have just been using every sqaud together as a sort of army :p Although i just did the defend carenten and it was well hard. I lost the town hall, i was pretty much relying on airstrike for the tanks :p

Pretty awesome game though!

Carentan is easy you just have to be prepared. I did first time no issue back in the day. But I do remember one MG guy legging it halfway across the battlefield at the end with arty falling all around him not to mention lugging round a 30cal. :D

EDIT 2: Yep, fine on laptop now!

Grrr, it's always the same things they keep putting on these weekend specials. Why not something different like those still ridiculously overpriced games at £30 which in reality should be £10.
 
Dowloaded all 3. Once you've finished messing about over the installs, updates and files validation it's a very nice game.

Had some resolution issues but they seem to have sorted themselves with a Config file change.

I just jumped in straight to ToV. Am I missing anything by not playing the other two first?

Also, has anyone found a decent beginners/strategy guide? Ta.
 
What made me laugh is that this recent sale has seen the most online players looking for a ranked match in ages and ages, (and loads of noobs to play :p) so what happens?

The servers grind to a halt and I couldnt get a game! Hey ho :)
 
This is a brilliant game. I bought OF in the last sale. It was brilliant playing it online with a friend. Probably my favourite RTS of all time. I hope they make a new one sometime.
 
Thanks

Got the Tales of Valor for 2.49 ( owned other 2 already)

Its a pity that relic login servers were falling over more often than a one legged man in an arse kicking contest , at the weekend
 
I've had this game for years, it's gotta be the best RTS going. For this money it's pretty incredible. I don't play online much anymore, the lag, dropouts & people with slow systems became to much to bear, but lan and comp stomps are still fantastic, i still struggle to beat expert.

If you can get an all uk game then it's excellent online.
 
can anyone tell me if there is a way to play as the germans in skirmish mode? i havent managed to find a way to do it
