I'll just be fully getting into GRAW 1.

They should've waited a bit longer imo.

[Swifty]

lol.... i think more like September

it WILL be delayed Ubisoft suck at sticking to deadlines...

[AfroJoe]

Yeah, it'll be closer to Christmas than March.

September-November.

I bet this is GRAW with new weapons and a few new missions, don't expect anything spectacular.

[AfroJoe]

I don't want anything spectacular, to be honest.

Same basic format on a bunch of new levels, and with better connectivity online (no disconnecting and lagging and stuff), and that'll suit me just fine.

[Kalou]

I want spectacular for £40 :)

Anyway I hope they put lean into online, that's the main reason I didn't bother playing it online was because it's too rambo, you can't even peak around a corner yet you have to show your entire body, defeats the purpose of a tactical shooter.

[tom91]

yeah leaning and cover would be good online but i still think its great.

[AfroJoe]

GRAW... rambo?

I'd say, of all shooter titles on the 360, it's easily the most tactical. Well, maybe not if you're playing Sharpshooter, as a lot of people do. But if you're playing Last Man Standing like all of us lot on here, it's a hell of a lot more tactically-orientated, because you only get one life. Feck it up and you're done. Encourages much more caution in your style of play, and definitely isn't "rambo".

Also, you say you can't peek round a corner without showing your body? Again, I'm confused about this. Unless you're playing in first-person mode, you never have to show your full body. In fact, you can peek round corners without showing ANYTHING due to it being third-person!


Tom, you CAN lean and cover. True, there's no cover button, but then there are so many objects littered about that it is fairly basic anyway. And to lean you just hold LB and lean out whichever way you want to.

[Kalou]

Ehhh my bad I meant cover, I don't want leaning like MOHAA where you run around bending from side to side just to avoid getting shot, the cover thing was great about SP and to take it out for MP was bent.

So you can walk up to a wall, use cover and peak around while being able to shoot? can't remember seeing that when I played it. You can use the third person thing yes but that sucks, I want to peak around the corner and shoot, aka Rainbow 6.

[AfroJoe]

Well, you can't do it as well as in Rainbow Six. But the lean feature I mentioned in response to Tom is basically the same thing. Try it sometime. I didn't know about it until about 3 months ago, which means I went for 4 or 5 months thinking the same thing you did.

Whilst it's not a proper cover feature, it'll do if all you want to do is peek round corners and fire off a couple of bullets.

LB and the direction in which you want to lean.

[tom91]

yeah even without the cover thing its still very tactical online, and like you said theres still tones of stuff around the maps to get cover behind, dosent really make it bad at all.

[backin-strachan]

Well another title I am dying to get hold of.

[Halo3Sniper01]

it will be awsome if tehy keep the original online system not this updated crap that they have now

Cheers For The Info Tom :)
