I believe these are the two commands 1er was also referring to when he mentioned bugs. They don't seem to do anything. While they could be useful, depending on what their actual function is, you don't NEED them to play the game.

Re: Men of War Review

yea, i was just wondering. spread would be great if you had to move up a pass or feared a nade coming in behind your defenses. I pulled that one last night online, i killed at least 6 guys with it.

Re: Men of War Review

I don't keep my guys grouped up. Pretty much just split them into individual units as soon as they spawn. I sometimes keep them in groups of two, but I prefer them all split up.

Re: Men of War Review

I like groups, but maybe thats from my over organization. In most every RTS game i play, i use groups like a madman.

Re: Men of War Review

Sniper or Officer counters a flamer pretty easily.

Re: Men of War Review

Have you tried running it as an administrator? That solves most of my Vista related game problems.

I know it's basic but it works.

Although being one of the TG Gods you've probably tried it already.

Re: Men of War Review

I'm a big fan of this series...

Soldiers Heroes of WW2, Faces of War and now Men of War. I have finished the German and Russian campaigns, however the Allied campaign is quite hard especially the first mission.

I enjoy playing Multiplayer so if anyone is interested let me know! There isn't many US players on the servers so we need to represent! Send me a PM if you want to play sometime!

John

I've tried that. I've installed the thing about half a dozen times trying different ways to get it to work.

Re: Men of War Review

Yea, no responses when I made a post asking about your error with the demo. I know plenty of people using Vista x64 with the full version but that doesn't matter because you don't even know if you'll like the game.
