brothers in arms hells highway

I'm quite enjoying this, its a little rough around the edges but It has a GRAW in WW2 feel about it to me.

Unfortunately I've got my COD4 gamepad controls so engrained I keep ordering my squad to the location I'm trying to aim at, there is something incredibly satisfying aout popping up and nailing a long range head shot accompanied by slow motion replay, as a single player experience I'm having a lot of fun, only a few hours in but I'm really enjoying the open field warfare experience in this game :)
 
Thanks for the feedback guys, it was a toss up between getting this or SBK08, the other day – I picked the latter (and the verdict is still out on that).

I found the original BIA a complete pile of ****, it was hard to play as your character felt like a ghost most of the time – Founder_film helps describe this:

But you have to play this game how the developers want you to. So each section is almost like a puzzle not so much a shooter.

The original seemed totally reliant on you playing how the devs wanted you to – you give and order here and there, and so on. As soon as you step out of this routine, the game seemed to fall into shambles – I recall many times being able to single-handedly plough through the enemy AI without a hint of resistance.

If HH is still like this, then sadly it will be a miss for me.

Scort.
 
well ive just finished it, i enjoyed it, i dont know if i can be bothered to finish it on authentic. I think ill go see what the mp is about.
Still probably get the next one whenever that will be, out in the snow sounds fun :)

There's another planned to come out already?
 
I bought the game today and I am dissapointed really. In the videos I watched it showed zoomed in camera action of body parts flying when an explosion went off but I haven't seen any of that, I see the camera moments but no parts flying, they removed the gore?
 
the gore is still there,you only realy see it on headshots or explosions,especialy hitting mg nest with a bazooka or using the tank on groups of people.There is a option to turn gore on and off in the settings tho.
 
Hey

So, downloaded the BIA:HH demo off of the PSN store this evening and have come away from it with a very jaded view of the game - it really does not play very well at all!

  • Controls are terrible! They seem to be the 'anti-controls' to every other PS3 i've played!
  • Jerky, slow cutscenes - is this just a PS3 issue or for both?
  • Very cartoony - while I can't really be mad at this - it seems a very jolly, colourful atmosphere for a WW2 game based on 'hells highway'.

I just seemed to have no fun with this at all, made me really frustrated and everything that happened was just a hindrance while I was playing - I was hoping to pick this up sometime this coming week I now really am having second thoughts.

Did you guys have the same issues? Is it something that after 15-30 minutes of play you get used to (controls wise) and it is OK?

I have just finished this and although its not COD, I really enjoyed playing it. The controls for team work are not a patch on R6 and it really needs adjusting or copying R6.

It worked much easier on the PC.

Having played the previous games I really enjoyed the story and the battles although I didn't use my team much.

Good rental for a couple of days play :)
