[QUOTE=Diamond;25915911]Yes, but the maps are gorgeous and incredibly detailed, a huge amount of work has gone into them. Caen and Overlord are hardly the best looking ones of the skirms btw[/QUOTE]
Mapping isn't especially hard , just time consuming to make something look good.

I love making villages
and in the end lighting is what makes it look appealing
Gem 3 looks like a serious improvement.

[QUOTE=darth-veger;25914640]Anyone knows why MoW:AS has FPS drops?
If i play the normal MoW my FPS is about 30-40 but in MoW:AS i get around 10-15[/QUOTE]
Same here, whenever I look into the distance or a tank drives through a building (or anything like that), the FPS drop by 40 if not more, and I tried in a skirmish were I was alone (so lag or netcode shouldn't affect much, right?) and it still did that. Now I know AS has improved the graphics quite a bit, but it doesn't look so good to justify that drop.
Still it's a beta so hopefully stuff like this will be fixed.
I wish they'd add the ability to select multiple squads for a infantry rush
[QUOTE=Killerjc;25916720]I wish they'd add the ability to select multiple squads for a infantry rush[/QUOTE]
Yea, forming squads into large squadrons for massive attacks, yet being able to quickly select a slice of the squadron without messing up the troop count in the squad would be a nice feature.
anyone got any good strategies for kraut tanks? I seem to be raped by low tier russian mediums at any range
All my shots bounce each of theirs kills me at any angle and range
At nades are your best bet, or few pak 40's. But for tanks i suggest that you aim at the area behind their tracks (lower hull?) Anyway it's an instand catastrophic explosion.
sniffles
I hope GEM 3 will be for Men of War.. Or is it created for a new Men of War game? :ohmy:
And does anyone knows a [b][i]Full[/b][/i] tutorial of the GEM editor?
I only see not-finished/very basics tut's
I don't like AS. It seems to lack the realism of the first game. Infantry is much stronger now, which is stupid. A guy can take 5-10 smg shots before he goes down now. It also seems to me that there is a lot less armored units. I do like the new graphics and skins though, and the squad load-outs.

I'll trust for mods to fix things like these.

I'll be happy to make tutorials for whatever you request.
hey guys. i haven 't been here in a while, is AS beta any good

Yeah I got that feeling too. Did they actually change something? I mean apart from the infantry being more numerous (do they really take more shots to die? Seemed to me like it was usually 3 like in MoW).

Yes, it is, beside the odd quirk it's fun.

Also the MGs are basically laser cannons now.

Balanced then, in MOW they were atrocious, but infantry were less numerous, now more infantry, better mgs.
anyone got a list of good mods? there's not many on moddb that are released
I'm looking for a good modern mod. None on moddb are released, anyone got one?
I hate those times when anything you do just fails horribly, argh.
And people that are somekind of direct-control wizards that manage to switch between soldiers within nanoseconds

For me it's usually that every shot I fire with my huge cannon bounces, then the other guy fires one shot from his pewpew gun with his shitty tincan against my mobile fortress from the front and destroys it.

Yea, that's what bugs me the most in AS. I'm fighting against a panzer II with a hellcat and the bastard crushes my hull from the first shot, while three of my rounds bounced off him.
Hellcats don't exactly have the most armor...
But that's what I don't like about APRC. Everything can kill everything now.
More like OPCR amirite.
Over Powered Cannon Rounds.
I like it.

[url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldiers:_Heroes_of_World_War_II[/url] Developer: Best Way
[url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Men_of_War[/url] Developer: Best Way+DMS And as I said, DMS was only responsible for a very small part. Only doing some of the sounds if I'm not mistaken. They are not even mentioned on the front of the box nor on the Steam page for MoW as developers.
Also, yes let's just assume that the game will be full priced (which it will most definately not be), even though nobody ever claimed it was a full sequel, and how expensive are expansions anyway? 30 euros tops? I'd be really suprised if it was over 30.
Yes we would all love a completely new game on a completely new engine, but fact of the matter is that for a fledgling company that is not doable. AS's success holds the future for the MoW series, because BW sure as hell is done with it, except maybe some more offline milking (vietnam, red tide, some new game). Looking at how with such limited resources DMS managed to so tremendously improve MoW, I can't wait to see them get to opportunity to create a full sequel.[/QUOTE]
Best Way is DMS. Actually DMS is an offshoot still associated with Best Way. If you look on DMS Games page, S: Heroes of WW2 is listed as a game they made. If you look on Best Way's site, Men of War is listed as a game developed by them. Faces of War's official forum is hosted on DMS' servers.
I'm not entirely sure of the situation on how each company operates (if DMS is just an internal developer at Best Way, or a separate company working for Best Way), but the fact still stands, the entire series was developed by a single company, but at this point I think the arguing is done. We've both expressed our opinions and there isn't much more to say.
I might start playing 1v1s and become godlike. Just I have no Internet at my house at the moment, I can only play on weekends.
Just killed a King Tiger with an AT Willy.
Holy fuck that was amazing.
Well almost anything can kill a King Tiger if the owner is dumb enough to expose its sides. Given you're facing it from the front, it's unbeatable unless you destroy its gun/tracks then flank it.

Well obviously I got it from behind but its the fact that a AT Willy did it, one of the weakest units in the game.

Yeah I dislike APCR too, it becomes a damn instagib match with those.
And I killed a Jagdtiger with a Chaffee, this kinda shit happens.
