I really like the game, a lot more than Dragon Rising.
When you're bleeding out, you need to use the radial command menu to call for a corpsman or they'll just eat popcorn while watching you die. I've had a few gleefully give their lives trying to save me. But ONLY after screaming for a corpsman like a little girl.
Agreed that the ai is pretty dumb when it comes to taking cover. They stand around, sometimes behind sandbags, but they still attract bullets like crap attracts flies. They do a decent job of lighting up hajjis though.
I'm up to what looks like the last camapign mission and I feel like I got my money's worth. I'm actually surprized because I was fully expecting it to be garbage. Some of the haters need to shut up and play it first. It isn't perfect, and I can see where some people won't like it, but I get annoyed when people bag it and haven't played it.
Thanks for the screens and comments Magnum. I came into this thread to see what you thought of the game.
I refuse to buy a flight sim that I have no interest in playing, on the off chance that MAYBE someday they'll make the one I really want to play.
