Yes, a ww2 game, if you no like then jog on!

Anyways, I'm impressed by the scale of this, although fear it may well be a touch ambitious. If it's pulled off then this would be a massive coup. I shall keep my eye on this.

Why is this here, on 'PS3 games' section?
I doubt that will ever happen anyways. I mean, really...

Animals that react to the combat
Grass and trees that flow with the wind
Buildings and terrain that take realistic damage




The AI controls the emotions and feelings of every unit
Coordinates realistic tactics and movements
Manages over 250,000 units real-time.

AND 128 players online?!
No. Never gonna happen. I just can't believe.

I'm not sure why this is here in the PS3 section... the website really looks as though it will be PC only, so it should be in that section.

As for the game itself... it looks like one of those games that the developers are going after something HUGE and also something that might not be achievable and the end product will suffer. It'll be nice if they pull it off... but it REALLY looks as though this game will be NOTHING like what they say it will be like... if it even comes out at all.

Maybe, possibly, if they developed it for the PS3 ONLY. Don't believe they can pull this off if it's Multi-Plat. Plus, in the Q&A it says an Install of 5-10 Gig. Even 20 Gig possible. Yoink!

It is a PC only game. Some of the stuff they're saying they can pull off on low end systems is pretty hardcore... like things that as far as I know haven't been done before. It basically sounds like they're saying they can pull off better physics than any other game out or in development with systems that can barely run games from a few years ago.

Also, the release date they have on their website is May 1st 2012 so we have quite a while to wait for this game.

I suggest though looking at this thread to see all the models they already have... it actually looks really good.

I don't know if PCs will be running this game by 2012, and I am pretty sure that no console will be running it at all. I am also having a hard time believing that a company can create a game of this magnitude but their website looks like something that was created on myspace.

They say that they can have the game run great on 512MB RAM, 1.8Ghz processor and a GeForce 4... which is VERY doubtful, but they say it's because of their use of physics engines.

Also, the main guy involved in the project began in when he was a freshman in college and then sold the idea to a group of people in a business class.

I'll be interested to see how this game goes and see how the final product is, or at least a BETA of it. Or heck, even alpha.
