there is another vid that shows off the sounds. That long one, and in it the devs say all the tanks use their real sounds where possible Hopefully it can match COH for sound experience, but I think the tank sounds will be better, louder for sure.

see my post above

oh yeah like it has been mentioned more infantry action please!

ok I figured out the problem with the pics - wrong url change http://www.battlefront-newsletter.com/Blogfront/tabid/55/EntryID/64/portals/0/ww2-78.jpg to http://www.battlefront-newsletter.com/portals/0/ww2-78.jpg that will work

good news! some of the pics in the blog don't work

LOL

Hmm... should be possible, and not too hard, for someone to make a program that'll fiddle with the XML file and randomize the forces. Maybe even the map. Feed the utility a text file with the rules for a scenario and the scenario, and the program spits out the the new randomized scenario... </font>

actually I just realised the stats at the bottom of that shot are of another tank

Now THAT is sweet. Does the "red" colored treads mean that the treads are off, or does it just mean that the engine is destroyed? I don't see any graphical representation of an engine there...so to show a blown engine maybe both tracks are turned red? </font>

a screenshot showing penetration holes http://img240.imageshack.us/img240/4118/3434ni1.jpg also note the range in the stats at the bottom - 2000m

I saw one screencap of a JS2 with the stats showing data to 2000m

ok I made a typo there was a screencap I saw - the ranges look far to me in the unit stats at the bottom - showed the main gun of a JS2 with ratings up to 2000m...

now with the difference between the Russian and English version - what of multi-player compatibility? Off course 1C could implement the changes into the Russian version

I've just been reading the Russian forums and badly translated version at that but stuff like there doesn't seem to be much infantry ratio wise to tanks, cover for infantry, infantry don't get tired running all over the map etc spelling errors and such too

not hearing good things about the Russian version...hopefully the English version will be better....

Oh - dead cows there is quite a bit of infantry action on the 2nd vid - nice anims

I would have prefered to hear the engine sounds, gunfire, and battlefield ambience myself rather than the music....

the tank engine sounds sound real good!

if its already shown at the start of the game, I don't see why it should bog down the game any slower?

I meant content wise, like the ranges, medal names and such as has been pointed out etc

Ahh a few years ago I may have been able to do it, damn too rusty these days...

Question - is the English version different from the Russian version in terms of gaming engine etc not the localisation?
