I am trying to find me a good break away game from fantasy, but unfortunately there are very slim pickins out there. I have been watching this game for a little bit now but like most games that are a few years old the population and games seem to be lacking quit a bit. However this is a totally different type of game then most so I was wondering if its worth it to give it a shot? Is there still a lot of interest in this game? Is it worth the $15 a month subscription? Is there still a good population to actually have fun? From what I have been reading and hearing is the Alliance is in pretty bad shape at the moment, though I would of went Alliance anyway it just gives me that extra boost to want to play because I like being the underdog. Just because the Axis has control now of a lot of things doesnt mean its over, it just means they have more to worry about. Anyway looking forward to some input. Thanks! |

I certainly find the game to be enjoyable. My one complaint is I wish that RDP would move a little faster but oh well. :p
It is worth it to me to pay the monthly subscription fee. You'll have to try it out and see if it is worth it to you. I play it for the ground combat and the anti-tank work. Other people play it for the naval game (which isn't very big at all). Then you have the aerial game which has an allure all of its own, but don't expect anything ground breaking at all in that regard either. All told, find a good squad and you'll have a good time most of the time. Another trick is to avoid the official forums other than dev related posts just because there is a fair amount of hate mongering there by both sides, and that can tend to kill the mood to want to play the game. |

Originally posted by Enforcer71 I bought this game when it first came out - hated it despite playing horrible amounts of time on FPS'ers... It's far in a way dated... Grab you a copy of BF2142, the same fill but with constant action. |

Thanks JMP much appreciated, I was gonna try the free trial but not a big fan of giving a CC # for a free trial, kinda why I was asking about it. Hell if it is only $10 to buy and I get 30 days to play then I might just give it a shot, hopefully see a few more opinions first though.

You can't compare WWIIOL to BF2142. They are two very different styles of games. If you've played both, you would understand this.

Originally posted by jmpreiss I have played both but I do admit to having only played WW2 online when it first came out and it was laggy, LONG time waiting or going to fights, and by long I mean seriously long like hours and hours.... but I played the game total for about 30ish hours. |

Originally posted by Manmadegod It doesn't take hours upon hours to join a fight now. You can hop into the game and be a part of a major offensive or defensive action in a matter of minutes if that. I haven't played the game for that long, only a year now, but to my understanding it is totally different compared to what it used to be. |

Well for the sake of complete ignorance or making a bogus claim, i'll retract my statement but I can attest that the game was disasterous at launch and this is coming from a WW2 history buff and long time fps fan and mmo fan... lol
