Yeah this Game is one of the BEST! and worth another try.

Plus nothing at all to lose since it is free to try.

I wouldn't mislead you like some of these other "don't-waste-your-time-posters"

It's Great to have an opinion on something, good or bad. But when you flat out lie about a game you clearly know nothing about then you are just spinning your wheels.

So now I will attempt to turn the lies into truth,here goes...

LIE: Every battle is the same. TRUTH: No it is not, I am in the battles,I know this to be untrue.

The rules are the same from one battle to the next is about the only thing you can say to that. But every battle is something different no matter what your role is.  AND your role in battle can be different every time. You have to see it to believe it.

LIE: $18 a month!  TRUTH: Not unless you want it to be.

 There are a whole host of payment plans to choose as well as the FREE to play option!  I choose to pay 12.99 a month when I commit for a year to pay monthly, myself...I believe this to be a great deal.

LIE: More ctds!  TRUTH: Less ctd's, in fact I get alot less than I used to and almost none... this isn't really an issue for most players!

This is comming from a guy who almost changed his name to ctd I'd get em so often, I used to ctd over 5 times a session just a few years ago so I do know what i'm talking about on this subject.

LIE:Less players!  TRUTH: Plenty of players, defending or attacking

There's  PLENTY of players online most of the time , yes there are times the pop is low, but nowdays that don't last long before there's more action than you can ask for. Huge battles for the most part, especially since F2P started. Jump in and find out for yourself , more than likely you will see the targets are plentiful :)

There are things in this game that aren't Perfect no doubt about it. Are there thing's I'd like to see changed/improved? Sure is.

Are there enough things wrong with this game that It shouldn't be given a chance as stated by others? Now I wouldn't be here if there were, and I'll go as far as to say the people who tell you it isn't worth a try are dead WRONG.

If you like fps war games ...if you like pvp action unlike anything around...If you yourself ARE NOT PERFECT and do not wish to be around anyone who is....This game might be for you. If not then ask one of these haters what they play, bet it's not perfect either. Sometimes with Strong Opinions come truth...sometimes not... Always better to find out the truth on your own IMO.

Hope to see you in game!

Good post Wrath *thumbs up*!

S!

People, if you look at population in game, you see, that game need covering by players from India and Philippines, imho.
Who knows good gameforums in India and Phillippines ?

Post those links here, then players with good English and manners can posting there about WWIIOL and even about F2P (though i have some doubts about playability as F2P in low population timezones).

Good points Wrath.

This game always worth a try. There is no other game of this complexity and realism. But one must have patience in this game :D

What's really unfortunate is that years ago there was a determined effort by the developers to stop all action in TZ3. Me and several other players said "don't do this, it's going to decrease the population in TZ3 and make it even harder to recruit more players". Seriously TZ3 axis side at that time had some great leaders, it was a tight-knit group and other players were actively switching to play in our zone because the community and teamwork was much better even if the battles were smaller.

Without giving out hard numbers DOC said that the change to 1 AO minimum, etc. increased population by 40% in that time zone. If you called bullshit your post was deleted or you were banned.

It's a standard practice to cry bias, but honestly CRS seems to have based most of their decisions on the concerns of a few allied squads that play during US prime-time(although you can't really call it "prime" any more). The axis crew in TZ3 was "breaking the game" according to them and they hit the forums, threatened to unsub,etc. Nevermind that a persistent, 24/7 server is one the main selling points of the game...

I still hope the game can recover but it's probably going to take selling the IP along with new management.

EDIT: This below is a good example of why time zone 3 is dead, and probably won't be coming back. Other players are simply the greater priority, and they don't like people in other time zones recapturing the towns they captured.
