[QUOTE=FalcoLombardi;22693383]So I was watching a bit of E3 today and Codemasters was up. The game they were talking about was Body Count. It is too bad to describe in words.

These were the guys who made Operation Flashpoint, right? I have never played it but have heard it is the best military simulator. First Dragon Rising, and now this. :Dawkins102:[/QUOTE]
No Bohemia Interactive made Operation Flashpoint, Codemasters only has rights to use the name for Dragon Rising and such.
[QUOTE=FalcoLombardi;22693514]Looks very generic, crappy "destructible" environment (which is supposed to be the highlight of the game), looks too easy. Basically it looks like an average run-and-gun to me.[/QUOTE]
sounds like DN3D, considered one of the greatest shooters of all time.

[QUOTE=MetalGear;22693925]Its the same people who made Black. Thats what they're trying to do again pretty much. July's game informer said its all about teh gunz. and the environment.[/QUOTE]
And Black was a great game, I don't see the issue here.
It doesn't look [I]good,[/I] but it doesn't look that bad either.

I didn't say it was an issue, if anything I agree with you.
[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;22693443]Didn't Codemasters make the shitfest called Turning Point: Fall of Liberty? This doesn't surprise me at all.[/QUOTE]
What the hell you are talking about? That game was actually good with [I]finally[/I] a ww2 plot where Americuh is not going to win the day, not even in the end of the game.
Codemasters is awesome, what are you guys going on about? The game looks pretty fun and I'm probably going to check it out when it hopefully comes out sometime in the future.
This looks like nothing special. Hopefully they will add some new, unique stuff to the game, that will make it stand out from the crowd.

It was buggy, unpolished, unfinished game with shit mechanics and a so-so story. Nazis invade Amerikuh! Big fucking deal, I'm sick of killing Nazis, I've killed more Nazis in games than entire platoons of real life troops did.
Looks decent, it could be a good game.
My only concern is how "intel" are little blue 2D circles that come out of your enemies corpse and stays there until you get close enough to suck them to you.
I am pretty sure intel does not work that way.
[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;22693691]don't forget you have to have one letter that's not capitalized.

What in the hell are you two on about?
They have 3 games with 4 letters, DiRT, FUEL, and GRID, and only one of them has a lowercase letter in the name.

I agree with you, Codemasters has made some of my favorite games.
Oh my god this game looks awful.

You're just overstating, every game has it's bugs, and this one wasn't expection. And so far, no game-killing bugs.
And about the plot, it would have been possible scenario. There were many times during the war when the history would have gone to Germany's favour. And after conquering third of the fucking world would you really think Hitler's Third Reich would pass an opportunity to end one last superpower opposing them?

No game breaking bugs, but more than average. I threw a grenade and it just span infront of my face. There were a LOT of bugs that killed me. And I never said the plot was bad, I said it was boring/uninteresting.

For me the plot was interesting, you aren't lone wolf-black ops-OSS-Ranger-Rambo-supersoldier trying to defeat ze nazis ONCE AND FOHR ALL DURRRR. But you are a mere taxi driver trying to survive the invasion, and save fellow americuhns lives.
The game also has interesting and well done view of post-occupation of america, propaganda posters and Hitler-Jugend recruitment centers and "re-education" schools. And the American families who doesn't know what to do hide in the attics and basements.
to the guy on the first page, Black was made by Criterion:

Bodycount looks horrible. This is the successor to Black I've heard, which is a shame because Black was a fucking awesome game. Hell, Black, a 2005 game, looks better than this.
Graphics, art direction, the HUD, shooting. It all looks shit and I can not beleive they have the cojones to show it to the public at this state. They don't even have a model for the pistol.
Looks boring, frustrating and uninventive. I'm glad it's not coming to PC.
I love how you guys are going "OMG CODEMASTERS SUCKS BECAUSE OF [b][highlight]PRE-ALPHA[/highlight][/b] FOOTAGE!"
Black was fucking awesome,
Codemaster, just give me Colin McRae: Rally maps only, no bullshit dirt 2 fuckups.
I hope it's as good as Black, I loved that game.

Sorry but you aren't a taxi driver in that game. You are a construction worker, who somehow knows how to use the highly advanced german guns, who somehow can kill entire squads of german soldiers singlehandedly, who somehow knows how to set explosives, who somehow knows how to use a parachute. You are mistaking the early trailers for the real game.

A much better "AMERICA HAS BEEN TAKEN OVER" storyline was found in Freedom Fighters. Hell, FF was just better all around. Turning Point felt like a slack, generic shooter, no better than Timesplitters or Goldeneye. I hate Modern Warfare, and even THAT series is better than Turning Point.
I liked the Fuel demo. The environments were pretty awesome. If they made a post-apocalyptic game with that engine it would look cool.
[QUOTE=FalcoLombardi;22693472]Call of Duty's [b]multiplayer[/b] is not as bad anymore, eh?[/QUOTE]Fix'd
And incorrect. CoD's new multiplayer will probably be forever bad. There was nothing wrong with CoD's singleplayer.
Also this looks like Borderlands had sex with Army of two.
and a bit of crackdowns orbs when you shoot people.
Codemasters isn't good at making anything other than racing games.
I still liked their Demigod game, that was a fun game for a while.
Or did they just publish that?
This game has a lot of DiRT, but we need GRID 2 (wonder why it's not GRiD?).
