  1. Well, who's your favorite soldier in S2? I like Ahmad, I think he has some of the funniest/coolest lines in the game. Spotting an enemy soldier: "Is like dream... but is real" Accidentally shooting a friend: "Stop dancing and... look behind you" And Klaus actually calls you stupid if you give him an impossible order.
  2. I'd say the main attraction is the sociable element and the variety it offers. It's fun cooperating with or competing against others in RPGs because unlike with AIs nothing is guaranteed. Also perhaps the sense of belonging when you join a guild and do your part to make it stronger etc. World of Warcraft at least is absolutely huge with loads of content so it doesn't get old quick. Plus they keep adding new content. But it's true that all of this makes it dangerously addictive. And don't hit me for this, but I don't think WoW is any more or less of a waste of time than, say, X-Com...
  3. Yeah, that's what I figured. I think it's kind of illogical that a soldier can carry a bazooka, a rifle AND a load of grenades, along with medkits, a ton of ammo etc. without any penalty to speed. Speaking of Hammer and Sickle, would you recommend getting it? How does it compare to Silent Storm? I keep reading bad reviews about it but it looks so similar to S2, how can it go wrong?
  4. I got them and am enjoying the original, but I can't emulate (run) Sentinels with 3danalyze. I'm pretty sure it has to do with the copy protection. Game starts up without 3danalyze, but of course I get the same error as before.
  5. The popup description for the Strength stat says that strength determines how much a character can carry before slowing down. So do AP really go down when a character is fully loaded? I can't say I've noticed such a difference...
  6. Definitely! I'm gonna get the full game soon.
  7. For anyone who has similar problems: I got it to run using a program called 3danalyze. It emulates hardware features that older cards like mine don't have. In my case, I have to emulate cube maps. The game seems to run fine otherwise.
  8. Hello, I'm having problems getting the game (the demo) to run on my laptop. What always happens is I see the Nvidia intro, then hear the main screen music for a few seconds over a black screen, then I get an error message about the .exe and the game goes back to the desktop. I suspect the problem is graphics-related. I have 512 RAM but a SIS 661FX/661MX graphics card, which is incompatible or insufficient for many newer games. I've tried adjusting the config file settings and safe mode without any luck. I've also got the latest drivers for the graphics card and directx. Any other suggestions?
