Welcome to the community Alex :)

Out of interest how are you finding BF4? I enjoyed BF3 but I wonder if there's much added?

Thank you!
Anyways, Battlefield 4 seems a bit more appealing to run and gun players from games such as Call of Duty. I used to play BF3 as well, but Battlefield 4 just doesn't seem like "Battlefield" anymore.

Yea, heard about this game from there, and boy I'm hyped about this.
Heroes and Generals seems to be taking a bad direction, and at times makes me want to rip out my throat. :rolleyes:

Before I go even further off topic, I'd like to say I have the entire series collection on DVD as well. I tend to like the four years of black and white rather than the color.

On Topic: I just got back from a match on Company of Heroes.

Yep I agree. Some of the color episodes are pretty cool, but its often said that changing the show to color was a poor choice and is one of the things that killed the show in the end. Ironically, the show that replaced Combat only lasted 1 season and then was cancelled... stupid TV executives. It bothers me that Combat never had a real strong ending to the series, we never got to see them go home or anything.


On topic: I have nothing on topic to discuss.

Well one of the most popular episodes was in two parts. It was called "Hills are for Heroes", but of course, the Germans defend the hill with Brownings. :|

Yeah, great episodes. I personally don't care so much about accuracy in the show, its not about that, its about much more.

Same here, I really enjoyed the series. The characters were good, and you could have a real connection with them, and understand some of the stresses and demands that they are portraying.
Otherwise, for series like Rat Patrol on the other hand... come on, it's just too silly... :rolleyes:

Right now I am totally addicted to Napoleon Total War. (Yea.... I'm so poor that I wasn't able to buy it on it's release.)

It's a good game. I'm enjoying Rome II: Total War at the moment (although only in small chunks - I find it gets very repetitive if you play for more than an hour).

Dug out Mount & Blade: Napoleonic Wars the other night for half an hour just for fun. It's just as crazy as I remember.

Rome 2 is a great game. I have it and play it a bit each week. My graphics card isnt the best but can run it. I like the fact that arrows actually do damage and show up.

The blood and gore DLC is a nice touch I thought. I wonder if that's their way around German gaming laws?

Any Germans here tried buying it?
