R A M B O Hey Hydro

.:¦H¥ÐRØ©¦:. Sup

R A M B O When you first tried RTCW in E3 what was the first reaction towards this game?

.:¦H¥ÐRØ©¦:. well I started off in a hallway staring at a Nazi flag took a couple steps, then I talked to a level editor from Gray Matter and I was in awwww the game was so smooth and the detail of the map was unreal. First thing he showed me was too peek around a corner and the way the screen tilted like if you were actually doing it blew me away!

R A M B O heheeh :) cool but were you so surprised by how this game looks ? as in you did not expect RTCW to be what it is now...

.:¦H¥ÐRØ©¦:. no I had no idea I have never played any of the wolf games so I didnt know what to expect I seen a few screen shots for me the player movement makes the game if I cant move freely in the game I wont play it or if the animations are bad *cough cough *like umm lets say Counter strike!

R A M B O hehe ok :)

R A M B O How the gameplay appeared to you? similar to Kingpin or Quake 3 or what?

.:¦H¥ÐRØ©¦:. well the gameplay for me was new I never played a game where you could peek around corners kick doors open and move so quickly but it did have a slight Kingpin feel to it, it wouldnt come close to Quake 3 for me Quake 3 has no realism!!!

R A M B O Nice :)

R A M B O How the AI reactions seemed to you, were they intelligent AI's?

.:¦H¥ÐRØ©¦:. yeah very smart I was shocked when I threw a grenade down a hall way at 3 of them and 1 of them kicked it back in the room at me I paniced!

R A M B O hehehe thats awesome! Good AI's make the game more real more challenging!

R A M B O What features did you like about the game as far as player movement and actions?

.:¦H¥ÐRØ©¦:. It would have to be the sprinting you can walk in the game or run but if you hold a special key down you sprint so there is 3 speeds which I have never seen before whichwas cool to me there is a stamina bar on the left side which drops in power the longer you sprint! Point a flame gun at me and watch me sprint to get away from the flame :)

R A M B O eheheh I have never seen that before too so that should be a great addition to the game :) and sprinting is a good idea to run from the flame eheheh.

R A M B O What do you think will make this game real good singleplayer or multiplayer?

.:¦H¥ÐRØ©¦:. For me its multiplayer there is nothin like it you can only play the singleplayer version so many times there is nothin like jumpin on the server with a bunch of friends and causin havok trash talkin all apart of the game play.

R A M B O: Thats so true, I totaly agree with you , multiplayer is what makes a game a sucesss or a failure I can recall playing Kingpin still because of the its great multiplayer aspect and i'm more then sure that RTCW will haven succesfull with its multiplayer modes!

R A M B O Does the single player maps or mission seemed big to you?

.:¦H¥ÐRØ©¦:. Na it seemd well balanced there is the time you need to camp and take cover then other times you have to just run in a room and start shootin like crazy and as for me I have always liked big maps there is alot to explore.

R A M B O Thats good I like the part of running and shooting like crazy :) you gotta love it when there is lot of soldier to shoot at :)

R A M B O Does the rocket ressembles to the rocket of Kingpin or Quake 3?

.:¦H¥ÐRØ©¦:. I would have to say kingpin the way it reloads and fires it seemed to shoot a little faster though than a Kingpin rocket would.

R A M B O ahhhh ok :) and how about the look of the Rocket? is it better looking than the Kingpins Rocket Launcher?

.:¦H¥ÐRØ©¦:. well I think that would be a personnel prefrence and I am sure that RTCW will have weapon skinners but for me I like the originality and the war version rocket laucher of RTCW.

R A M B O Thats true everyone have his own personal taste as far as looks go, there will be lot of skinners for this game and i'm one of them :) for the weapons and models skinning :)

R A M B O Did you hear the German soldier speaking in German between them?

.:¦H¥ÐRØ©¦:.Yes you could hear them yell to get each others attention I wish I knew what was being said though :)

R A M B O Good im glad :) I like to hear the German Soldiers speaking :) lovely language :)
