Well this is how it is

You travel in time to big battles in human history. World War 1, some Rome battle and so on.

And you get to bring modern weapons.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    You don't actually get to choose, so it's pretty standard FPS in that way.

    From what I've seen so far, it aims for a specific niche, and hits that niche <b><i>hard</i></b>. I will be checking this out when I get home.

    THIS GAME IS HORRIBLE. I am tempted to rant but I'm busy right now. You'll see, oh, you'll see...

    I wouldn't say horrible, but it certainly has a lot of flaws.

    Just got done with the demo.

    It's pretty bad. The #1 thing that will keep me from buying it is that it won't let you bind the keys to whatever. No Mouse4+ support means I can't rebind my thumb button on my mouse. And you can't bind Page Down at all which is stupid so there goes my reload key. I was forced to play the demo with horrible WASD layout. :(

    The animations are garbage, the poly-count and quality of textures looks to rival Half-Life 1.

    Still, it's pretty interesting to mow down a row of confederate infantry with an assault rifle. Though around these parts I can imagine an uproar for the game putting you on the wrong side... heh.

    I know some gamers (Read left-handed) that re-bind to the numpad for comfort and ease of use.
    I'm starting to trend into using ESDF and rebinding keys around that as appropriate... getting the hang of it slowly.

    I played the demo and it's... pretty bad... Again - the idea is awesome and we've all thought about it before, but the game just lacks polish.
    It even has you on rails for a pretty large part of the demo with no control over your movement what so ever. You just get to play around in the civil war shooting gallery. The part with the arrow in your leg was equally lame. The animations are really shoddy as well. Maybe the fun parts come after the demo ends?? It definately did not encourage me to buy the game though.

    Looking at screenies and website it seems it has an awesome concept. Talking to some mates who have also demo'd this they agree with above poster's in that it lacks a lot of polish and doesn't bode well for future purchase. I'll grab it down tmrw when my downloads at home reset (damn house-mate blew my last 5gb for the month streaming videos from youtube and google vids. *sigh*

    It seemed like the mouse sensitivity would change mid game, I would be shooting people and all of a sudden my mouse would just slow down.

    Plus there is no multilayer/coop :(
