Sounds and Looks
« on: January 13, 2010, 01:10:27 AM »
I have to say they have done a GREAT job on the sound effects, and the custom models. The Mosin makes a nice resounding THUD compared to the M1 Garand. Similar to the Lee Enfield, but better :)

The tanks and units are very nice looking, a bit shiny and new looking but otherwise awesome. Comments? Corrections on my part?

You never really see the T-34 close up (its pretty goddamn dirty) and there's a new IS-2 skin that was put in maybe a day after Apex made this.

A new IS-2 skin would be pretty sweet imo. I didn't really care for that odd white on olive... I think that's what i like most about eastern front. The new stuff will likely just keep on coming. (i.e. Ostheer, skins, etc.)
If someone you know asks a rhetorical question be sure to give them a rhetorical answer.

 Yea, sounds are awesome !! :)
 Moshin is sexy. T34 is... 'I HEAR A T34 coming!!' (apple)
 lol. fucking loud as hell (Steel tracks). As per historical, lol.

 Suprise factor : Zero, lol.
 IS2 had nice sounds as well. I agree that Russian tanks
 were a little too clean. I'd love to see the white line on
 the IS2 smudged a lot? Right now it looks like a giant
 Christian symbol ;)

 Awesome job guys :)

 Small Note : Er, Russians look hard as hell to play :p
 Poor AI. No retreat is going to be hard to live with.
You know, there are many people in the country today who, through no fault of their own, are sane. Some of them were born sane. Some of them became sane later in their lives. It is up to people like you and me who are out of our tiny little minds to try and help these people overcome their sanity

Well,

1) Hard as hell to WIN. Easy to play as. But to win, you could have a brit/american teammate or two and you can be the main assault force :)
2) No retreat? Pshh. I hardly retreat at all unless they are pinned, and even with the Russians, you can make two more (or more) in the time it takes them to die XD

Phht! Whatever, nobody is gonna play Axis or American or British. Nobody except the hardcore Axis players or the very few that... Well if they don't like the Russians then they won't download the mod. So, expect lots of 3 on 3's or 4 on 4's with all Russians on one team, 3 Wehr players and the guy that wanted to play Russia but drew the short straw!!
