World in Conflic Beta

World in Conflict Beta, amazing game, has to be tried.
Limited keys so i cant realy say how long it will last but i did get mine today and im playing :)

Just a shame gamespots download speed is 9Kbps but i found a faster source anyway.

Anyway whats your views on this game for those of you that have played it?

I think its amazing but the rounds are far far to short, after 5 mins right when i get into the game its already over, i hope they will increase the time limit

this game is incredible. its only a small beta right now, but it is so fun. everything is fast paced and the nukes are a sight to behold. i no that sounds really generic and you guys probably want me to describe more, but the NDA prohibits me :(. just trust me, this is easily one of the best RTS games i've ever played.

I can see by your sig that you're a RTS fan. How does this game compare to Company of Heroes and Dawn of war? I think I may try the beta.

its pretty different from Company of Heroes / Dawn of War. the combat seems larger in scale (IE, in CoH a Tiger tank is massive and the sight of it will make you cower; while tanks here dont have that same...."presence") like i said, the NDA prohibits me from really going into details (i dont think im even allowed to say what are the biggest tanks in game, lol). its so frustrating, i want to compose a huge article on all the games features and awesomeness, but i have to keep my mouth shut :(. just in general, it has a very different feel then CoH/DoW.

similar in someways, but faster paced, and more explosions...in fact...you probably should not expect  frontline units to live very long. 

just in general, it has a very different feel then CoH/DoW.

Thanks, I'm definetly going to check this game out :)

also, what Im about to say, I can say, because they have already released info on this before the Beta.....

the game also requires a lot of teamwork, since the game has a class system, and some units are good agaist others, and some arent (like in every other RTS) its important to coordinate actions with you teammates, which isnt as hard as it sounds due to built in VOIP, and a command system similar to that of BF2....

If you want to know more....you should look at the 5 part demonstration of the game they have over on gametrailers.

Yea...I hate how this truley innovative *cough*CNC3 and SupCom*cough* is so underhyped. CNC3 had nothing innovative. The story was good, but that's not innovation. Innovation is improving  gameplay. SupCom is a Tech1 rush. Really, good luck getting to make tier 3 units online with hundreds of tech 1 units rushing you.  The zoom wasn't the first time it was used.

Yeah, I felt that C&C3 was the same old same old and Supcom was dissapointing due to the system requirements aswell. The game just didn't seem that "pretty" and the AI was stupid. I just don't understand where all the energy went to. 

BTW, this game deserves all the hype in the world. It looks beautfully renedered and I like the idea of a combat-centric games, instead of humping for resources, which I like too, but sometimes I just want a game like CoH or soon to be WiC. 

As a lot of us that grew up in the 80's, the storyline is perfect for us gen X'ers.

Thanks so much for the link! This is one of my most anticipated games of the year. Downloading now, although at this dl rate, I probably won't be able to play until after work tommorro :Pmismajor99

why would that be? please dont tell me your downloading from gamespot thats not why i posted the other link to the high speed download http://hdvg.net/index.php?option=com_docman&task=doc_details&gid=167&Itemid=26

this game reminds me of ground control II. at least the multiplayer style. chaosartist

thats cause its made by the same people.

Yeah, with TinyURL i'm getting 1000 KB/sec , but with GS I only get 17 :P

(Someone converted the link you put up to a tiny on the dl forum, when I say that I mean the hdvg site :) ) 

Everyone should definately use the above link

I can agree with what you said about CNC3, but not supcom. The game is anything but a T1 rush. Unless you play on a small map, you really can't rush with T1 units. The latest patch fixed the T1 rushing anyway as well as the huge system requirements.(The game runs MUCH better now, even single core users can play the game fine now)

I actually though that supcom would be the RTS game of the year,(It's still an amazing game) but since playing WiC, IMO  that game has already blown all of the big 3 RTS games(CNC3, supcom, COH)  out of the water,

If you dont work with your team your done for, i can assure that.

Most of the good teams i was on and infact the only teams that won, were the ones that talked to each other and planned, most of us would give our points to one guy who would order a nuke strike! so we would be sending 3 nukes all at once, and messing them up good, all from planning, so it shows its a realy team based game

I've actually been able to drop two nukes in one game without the need of getting points from my other team members, but yes the game is very teamwork centric, which is what I love about it.

Also under the tactical aid menu their are three sets of points that I usually see. I know the first one will allow me to use the selected tactical aid but what are the other two sets for? And why do they cost more than double the amount of points than the first set?  

just played...wow that was terrible... i didnt even know what was going on. The graphics r nice tho.coolmonkeykid

maybe you should figure out how to play and then give it another chance. once you have a hang of things, then come back.

Godammit 33kbs a second?

I HATE GS download service.

 I wish it was on fileplanet or other.

I really wish it would work for me. I don't know why but every time I try to open the downloaded file I get this:

This game makes even all my expectations. Iam very pleased with this beta.

 Does anybody know if there would be more beta keys available? 

My first download exploded, im getting it again now :D

and im in australia!! 

I downloaded this game a few days ago and got my key, but haven't gotten around to installing it do to some major computer upgrades I did. But this thread has gotten me even more excited to play it. I have a question to those that have been playing a lot: seeing as how theres lots of teamwork, do you need to use a mic to communicate well and do you need to chat with your teammate a lot? I don't really like using mics and not a lot of people seem to want to communicate and set up strategies in games like CnC 3 and other online games.....I will play the beta a lot tomorrow and report back here with my impressions. BTW when I download from gamespots servers I used a free download accelerator and it was finished in like and hour and a half.....Rob_101

MICs would probably be very helpfull, but not required.

the game does something like BF2, where you can place certain commands on the map....for example, you can issue a request for artillary on any part of the map.

How does a download explode?

darklord888

the requirements seem higher. I run supcom at close to max settings with 40-60 fps but with this game i can only play @ medium with like 40fps. its a beta tho. 

if someone has a problem with the game or gets bored can u send me the key please iv ben diein to play this game :Pjackassfan1211

ya i might send u mine but i already installed the game and played online, would the key still work?
