Downloaded the demo yesterday - really impressed, generally. While this game can be characterized as a "realistic" computer game, it totally still falls into some cliche video-game pitfalls at times, usually with the way AI behaves - like when your guy that's firing a cannon won't jump away from it when an enemy soldier runs right up in his face and shoots him point blank, your guy tries to kill him with the cannon at a range of 5ft, or like when infantry empty SMG clips at tanks. But the graphics and effects as well as the sneaking options you get make up for it for the most part. Also there's a disclaimer not during the load screen that says the demo doesn't reflect the way the final game will be (is).

I think its really fun, for that type of game its pretty realistic.

Its a bit hard to manage for someone who is a bit slower but over time you get better with hotkeys.

With the addtion of MP i might have to pick it up.

I loved how if you aimed at a tanks right side tracks, it couldnt move its right side.. or if you hit the tanks back, it couldnt use it engine, same with turret.

This game is really fun and it was only the demo when i treid it a couple months ago
