I played the demo and man it was freakin HARD. They say its a real time strategy game but it more looks and plays like a real time tactical game. You have to do a lot of things I dont associate with RTS games, like refilling a vehicle using a jerrycan and siphoning off fuel from another vehicle, repairing vehicles with a toolbox by equipping a soldier with it, you only have a select group of soldiers you can control, micromanaging your squads inventory by selecting what weapon or equipment you want them to use or not at a given time, these are just a few things i have noticed about the demo.

The thing is I want to know if the full game is frustrating like the demo. Is the game play any good and is there are a save/load option in the full ver?? :confused:
 
the game is a blast, and beating missions in that game is more satisfying than just about any other game.

To make it less frustrating, try hitting the backspace key, as that puts it into slow motion...much easier to manage your troops then.
 
Codemasters are now expecting us to buy an expansion before getting the mission editor, rather than 'making it more user friendly to get to you all soon' a few months ago...

The full game is about as hard as the demo, but there indeed is a save/load option. Still, this game is a blast to play, and is one of the most unique game released this year.

Yeah which is why I wouldnt classify it as being a true RTS. The game do remind me of Commandos and Fallout:Tactics.

Got to beat the demo on easy but normal is giving me headaches, the demo isnt really stable on my 64mb 9000 pro, it lags big time when a lot of action is going on, didnt get any probs with Codename: Panzers.

Well..personaly I also wouldn't call many other games RTSl like Panzers or Rome:TW :) Tom me RTS is a game where you gather some kind of resources, build your army and then attack, remove the resources and the game becames real-time-tactical/real-time-wargame :)
