Bah,
not for me. Sorry no offense to the RO team but I am just sick of these WW2 type games. It seems that is all the rage now. We have 3/4 mods for UT/UT2k3. We have BF1942, RtCW (RTCW:ET), MOH:AA and all of her add ons. Call of Duty, DoD, ect. Again I think the did a fantastic job but for me that Gene is pretty abused atm. Much like the conuter strick clones

Y'see, that's the reason I like this in a way. I've tried MoH, tried Wolfenstein etc... and this is better than all of them. The realism, the balance, the maps, the graphics... most of it is down to the engine, but boy is it good.

Yeah , the whole Uber realistic War game thing is pretty much old by now, Dont get me wrong , I'd defend my BF1942 copy with my life , but More of the same is not what is needed.

XIII is built on the UT2k3 engine for those of you that didn't know.

Me too. Most of those WW games are really good. But I'm tired of that.
James Ryan somehow started it all and now it's like the days when every second game was RTS or (in case you are old enough) when everyone tried to copy
Doom. Feels like being fed with cake and sugar for a month. It's just too much...

Remember when everything was a Wolf3D copy?

Not really. There was a 2 or 3 year gap between when i started using computers and when i started playing games on them (well.. thats not right, i was playing games from day 1, but im talking about PC games instead of apple IIGs games that were run completely off a 3.5inch disk).
Anyways.. i think Wolf3d was somewhere in that gap.

Iv played RO at shuri's place and thought it was good. But sadly, there are a lot of WW2 games about at the moment...
