Feliz Viaje: 1400 hrs
Operation: Recon and Eliminate Hostile Threats Waging Terrorist Attacks on the Provisional Mexican Goverment
Day 5....

SITREP: Had been in the outskirts of target village over three days now...
Recon analysis: Approximately seven patrols a day of eight or more watching the major roads in and out of target area. Two smaller roads used to transport drugs and ammunition. One large convoy entered town today, four trucks and two limos and helicopter support.
Orders received 20 minutes ago: Penetrate and investigate inside town. Team is ready. Proceed through the side-streets. Upon turning the corner, a patrol of six or more coming closer... 25 meters away. I am Delta 1 and I just issued a "Weapons ready" check to my ghosts. I am receiving live feeds from higher command....

Static burst... "Delta 2 moving into position... no clear shot yet..."

Static burst... "Delta 3 has one tango in sight..."

Static burst... "Delta 4 is prone, waiting for the signal to open fire...."

I broadcast the rules of engagement are now yellow... I take a deep breath, waiting for the patrol to pass... Wait! The patrol has stopped, do they see me?? the patrol is moving to my location the point man reaches for his flashlight… I'm holding my breath aiming thru my ACOG on my SCAR Heavy, slowly turning the selector switch to full auto... sweat rolls down my face stinging my eyes...

Ahh, cool. I take it this is for the PC version, yes?
Might consider getting this if I find it in a bargain bin somewhere.

Yes indeed good Sir!

The majority of us have found this for $9 - $19 and since Team Speak is free it makes it a great title to hop into for a few missions and just move around completing the objectives in short order.

Be advised that the new maps are difficult and as soon as you spawn it forces the squad to seek cover and eliminate the initial threat before devising a plan. It makes for some really hair raising moments but again its highly enjoyable having full comms.

Hmmm interesting.

Is this a TvT game or coop?

HAZMAT · 11-18-2008, 03:37 PM

Yes.

We just need to know what players want. We have done both.

Harpo245 · 11-19-2008, 03:06 PM

Well, I'll be one the lookout. Got €20 in my pocket!

AdenFlorian · 11-25-2008, 05:45 AM

I loved this game on the 360, and now I can't wait to see how it looks on my rig

. Hope to see y'all there if I ever pick this game up. Btw, has anyone heard any news about a possible GRAW 3, or what games are being made by the same dev team?

TactiKill Jay · 11-26-2008, 01:21 AM

I might grab it if you guys are going to be running TvT

Captainplanet · 11-27-2008, 12:31 AM

I'll pick it up once i get paid next friday.

Bump

Its taken a little time but we have added player vs player modes to the server.

That's live vs live and we are currently play testing new maps with improved AI that are equally compelling.

Be sure to check the latest posting in the GRAW forums to get the most up to date maps and files needed.

**TG_Bubba** · 02-06-2009, 09:45 AM

We are alive and kicking. Come join us as we bring more new life to the game. We have new maps and game types on the server. You old GR folks, come back and show us what you are all about.

HAZMAT · 02-21-2009, 03:31 AM

AND looking for some great TvT coming up on every Saturday evening!

Grab your headset and get onto Teamspeak for this awesome tactical squad shooter!

And be sure to check the GRAW2 forums for the updated links for the new map packs, which are amazing!!

It is a LOT more fun without the AI involved..and I love the kits offered..! Is a shame that some other games do not take a look at GRAW2 and take notes..

**Skylark** · 02-27-2009, 10:36 PM

thinking about buying this, is there much activity on the server? (don't want to buy a game that is dead here, since I don't really play anywhere else)
