NiCK-LeSS Posted March 1, 2005 Posted March 1, 2005 how many copies are you giving out? (i know theres 4, but is it 2 pc and 2 X-box or 4 pc 4 x-box?)
ZBomber Posted March 1, 2005 Author Posted March 1, 2005 Nokill - How is it? And, I think there is only one copy going out, but I could be wrong.
TK-8252 Posted March 1, 2005 Posted March 1, 2005 I got it and it's all installed. Wish my Delta squad luck.

Ham Yoyo Posted March 1, 2005 Posted March 1, 2005 I just started playing Medal of Honor Pacific Assault a few days ago and I'm really into the game. Looks like RC is going to have to wait a little bit. But when I get it I'm going to play the crap out of it.
TK-8252 Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 Damnit, the ending kinda pissed me off. I'm not gonna spoil it but I wish it could have been otherwise. Anyway... I wonder why they made the regular Clone Troopers so wimpy. Come on, they kicked ass in AotC.

Marketting, they gotta make the Commandos look supremely awesome and be like "only a commando can do this job". [/simple answer]
Nokill Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 hehe but my mind did also chance on the normal clone trooper thay are *poke..* dead i hope MP gets a litle more ppl on soon it whas calm yesterday

El Sitherino Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 Originally posted by Sifandor If i preordered it when should i get it im dying over here!!! Depends on delivery type. It's most likely standard, so sometime before the end of the week.

El Sitherino Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 Well it's only a 10 hour game on average. Which is common considering gameplay standards now. I and many others beat JKA within the day we got it.

[/simple answer] Now don't label me as an EU hater (I'm not, only PARTS of the EU annoy me heavily, while others I love), but this is just their classic MO. Weaken/downplay the G-canon characters/tech in favor of the C-canon stuff. If I were the creator of a new official Star Wars character or technology, I admit I'd be tempted to "show off" a bit with them too! Btw, it took me a week each to beat each of the JK games. Elite Force was a short game, it took 6 hours (I think I beat it in 7 or 8, I screwed around). As far as MP is concerned, give it time. 36 hours after release you can't expect much of anything to be out there (have they released dedicated Linux binaries for the server yet? usually those need to be tweaked and released first, and are any companies providing rental servers yet? those are another must). Sure, the first day buyers have already beaten the SP game, but those are the fanatics (apologies if I offended any fanatics reading this!). ; )

Yeah, the clones were wimpy in Hard Contact as well. It almost makes me lose faith in the clones that save the Jedi on Geonosis!
KOTORManiac Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Got it today from Asda (or Walmart in the US) great fun, but i kept dying on the bit with the Geonosian Elites
deloused Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 I got it today, and its pretty much what I expected from the demo. Gave the MP a little whirl as well. I was a little dissapointed there wasn't any squad-basedness or similar. However, it seems to be played freakin' FAST, which I liked. There was only one server online, but hopefully more will pop up once the dedicated server binaries get released.
Lundquist Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 Got it yesterday, finished it today - quite fun but WAY too short for a FPS imo. I like that you actually have to think to overcome some of the opposition - sometimes it seems like you're against impossible odds, right until you figure out the right way to coordinate with your teammates.
Kurgan Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 I finally got my copy less than an hour ago. Here's some scans: Box front Box back Once I get it installed I'm going to have a dive into MP (like JA, the game's manual doesn't devote much space to it) and see what all the fuss (or lack thereof) was about, for myself... wish me luck!
