FOW Full game question

[cth11]

I am sorry if this is a tired question, but I am a huge fan of SHOWW and only tried the demo of FOW when it first came out. The demo to me seemed like an episode of the A-Team from the 80's where tons of bullets were flying everywhere but the potency of them seemed less powerful than SHOWW where it seemed that every bullet counted. I have read in a few places that the demo is different. Is this true? I know the price of a copy is pretty decent now, and I'll probably pick up a copy just for the hell of it. I was just wondering what you guys thought, or if I have been just full of smoke.....

Thrilled to see this MOW game moving forward....It looks fantastic. All of these games are on one of the most beautiful game engines I have ever seen.

Edit: Sorry I meant to put this on the General Discussion for MOW

If you get it under 20 bucks, its more than a bargain. But, it'll eventually keep you wanting for more.

Perhaps you should join the MoW beta which is due... soon (Right Instinct? :baseball: )...

Anyhow, my personal opinion is that the best things about FoW are mods, coop and map editor. Those are only things interesting to me.

In my opinion, a very good way to kill the time till MoW Beta /i have that eerie feeling there will be plenty of time to it :confused:

Cheers :beer2:

FoW is fantastic, go and get it. There are both large and small battles in there 8)

cth11, an excellent question! Here (UK) you can get FoW on Amazon Marketplace for around £3 ($6) and still I hesitate...! I bought it when it was new and was very disappointed so sold mine back on Amazon while it was still worth a bit more than it is now. I may get it again; as HrcAk47 says the mods should make it interesting and there is one that is supposed to improve the SP game. I have replied to a thread on that recently hoping someone will respond to confirm that. Otherwise, I have collected around 30 mods for Soldiers that keep me happy!

Thanks for the replies. I actually did eventually pick up a copy. I bought a brand new one for $2.00 + $6.00 shipping. I received it two days ago and I have say that I think I really got a steal. Its been so long sing I have played SHOWW that I am going through the training tutorials right now. I have forgotton how fun this is.

Question: what exactly is the difference between the tactics mode and the arcade mode? Is there a difference in round accuracy and damage realism? I am currently playing in arcade mode.

Also, anyone know where to get this possible single player mod?

Really glad I found this forum.

Have a look under the Mod Release section, this thread: Improved_SP_Campaign v1.0

I haven't looked at the download links but I assume they work.

I didnt want to make a new topic so I ask this here. How can I enable fog of war in Faces of War single player? I have chosen tactical-difficulty but no sight of it on any mission - I see now all units in map. I dont find a switch in settings for fog of war. I use version 1.04.1a. Please help, thanks. :)
