FSW Impressions...

Re: FSW Impressions...

gamespot mentioned that enemies spawned in the same place all the time (or something like that, don't remember the review exactly). I think I'm picking up this game, but for Live play it's concerning if it'd just be exactly the same level every time with enemies at the same sptot, if that make sense. Can anyone with the game comment on this yet? I know it's soon after the game came out, so maybe not

Agree with all of the positive comments here. I haven't had to think this hard in a video game in a long time, especially at Master Sergeant level.

Quick question: Is anyone else finding they need to press the buttons, especially the A button, a little harder than normal to make commands? I wonder if it's just my disc, as I can use a light touch with the A button in every other game I own.

Thanks,

It may not be that, it may be that there is a delay, especially with the "A" button because it usually commands fire or movement. I have hit it light, but had to wait a few seconds for the command to be relayed, like in real life. I like that little touch, gives you more realism. If that's not it, then it may be the disc.

Same here PK. I noticed this right from the start of the tutorial. I'd tap a button and get no response. However, if I pressed it firmly, I would get a response every time.
Annoying at first, but after about 15 minutes, you get used to it.

I've noticed that the white and black buttons seem to have a delay for me. When the commander calls in and I have to hit the white button, or the black to bring up GPS, I find it takes a few seconds.. Whether that is due to a delay, or the fact that my troops aren't "ready" to use it yet, I'm not sure, but there could be a slight delay, given the fact that the game allows you to issue "overlapping" orders to two different units.

Re: FSW Impressions...

I got off Gamefaqs that its a 3rd difficulty level. You have to imput the word "SwedishArmy" and I believe the only thing it does is get rid of some of your hud and enemy markers. It unlocks a mode called "Authentic Mode". If this is old news, sorry.

Re: FSW Impressions...

Authentic mode should be unlocked when beating master sgt. level too.
