BUT...I was reading another forum, and a guy said this game had a lot of different companies working on it, making different patches and such that's why multiplayer was so blown to hell lol.

another question, he also said assault squad was gonna not have 1C helping make it anymore? he said DMS was just gonna do it now, will that have an impact in the game, or does he just not know what he is talking about .

BTW: like your vids LOL america, **** yeah

Hehe thanks man

But i think you kinda misread my post. The Multiplayer Itself is pure ownage, its just that the lobby etc is kinda simple. But its really no big deal.
Ohh and you should definatly get original MoW first.
After all its pretty damn cheap.

I'm running Vista 64 and have had no problems playing MoW. Playing demos is a great way to try out games, and since you loved the demo it sounds like you'll love the game. I shouldn't make comments on the Mp part, but from what I've read it has good points and bad points. I can however make comments on the SP part and for me anyways MoW and the earlier games are the best WW2 RTS games around. I like having the disk for my games but that's a personal choice. I do however have both a Steam DL and a disk copy of MoW.

Hey guys, thanks for the replies! ...so 400-500 people eh? that's more than coh .

Well, I live in the United States, and no stores carry the game, so steam is pretty much my only option lol...but why is steam a bad place for this game?

I have played the demo, and it works fine on my vista x64! ...I will probably buy this game (hopefully), if I do I will let u guys know so you can teach me a thing or two about it .

EDIT: also, It has Co-op correct? online?

[Korsakov829]

Gamestop and or BestBuy sells the game in the US as far as I know.

Yes, it also has Co-op in online and LAN MP.

Some Steam players complain about the patches in the MP lobby.

And well you can have a read al well:

But I know some who bought the game from Steam and it plays fine.

There are many players online before 21.00 GMT. Like around 02.00 GMT there was about 150 players.

i think Gamersgate.com is a better joice than steam. with gamersgateversion you can use the "standard" patches. with steamversion you must wait till a "special" patch for steam is avaiable.

Well, I'm sure they do carry it...but not in Arkansas (where I live) I'll have to check the local gamestops, but on Best Buy online, they have it out of stock everywhere around here so idk.

So buying off steam is pretty much a risk? some it works some it doesn't? ...I mean the demo works fine, got it off steam so idk ...I'll end up getting it there if all else fails.

Never Heard of Gamersgate.com...will possibly give it a try.

Men of War is also in 1C-online-shop (downloadversion) avaiable.

No, the SP will work for sure. It is the MP you might have problems with.

I am currently playing the Steam version of Red Tide (SP only, have not tested MP) under Windows 7 64-bit without any problems.
