    RO: OSTFRONT REVIEW (a real review).

    Depending on how much you want the game u may have seen this review by a man affiliated with tripwire (he states he is neutral). Cool review that mainly lists features.

    The art of war is simple enough. Find out where your enemy is. Get at him as soon as you can. Strike him as hard as you can, and keep moving.

    He was shot in the screenshot I saw.

    It doesn't say what killed you "exactly", it just shows a picture of either a bullet, a grenade, a tank, a mushroom cloud (artillery), bayonnet, or the butt of a rifle if I remember correctly. So you can't tell with certainty if a sniper shot you or a pistol if you're hit from behind...

    I can see how this thread is going to get off-topic LOL.



    Carry on.

    Re: RO: OSTFRONT REVIEW (a real review).

    i did notice that there are different sized bullets... when it says name1 ==> name2

    wonder if that represents the caliber of the weapon?

    Jesus, the sweetness! Curse you 85003! CURSE YOU! *Sobs*
    War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling that thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety is a miserable creature, who has no chance at being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. -- John Stuart Mill--

    Dys isn't actually "affiliated" with Tripwire. He was a tester about 2 years back before he rotated out to Okinawa with the USMC. He got home a couple of months back and we let him in to the Beta - he was always one of the hyper-critical ones, so interesting to see his opinion!

    Good seller review. Best one i've seen but to call it "unbiased" is a bit of a stretch. Sounded a little bit more like an advertisement than an "honest" review of a game.

    It is very enthusiastic

    But if you read it closely, it has quite a bit of objective and supported statements. Maybe it's just a dang good game! And he did provide a disclaimer of involvement, which lets the reader decide on the level of hyperbole provided

    See my previous comment - or chat with him on IRC. He's already bitching about the next set of "improvements" we should make
