Ruse looks interesting. I just hope the multiplayer has a world war style with unit progression something like theatre of war in Endwar.
Sure it wasn't perfect but they've had a trial run now to see what works and what doesn't.
Having said that, my laptop probably wont run it and I hate RTS controls on my 360. Endwar controls worked because you could bypass the pad with the mic.

Yes but I'm getting it six hours later in the day. Most of America will be asleep right now while i sit here waitingPimppeter2 said:
Err.... If it's 6 PM GMT, it's 1 PM in America (East Coast). Most people are actualy awake at that time of the day.Toasty Virus said:
It's a timezone difference everyone will be receiving it simultaneously, they will just be releasing it at a time convient for the company, or do you expect them to release it at the time you want it?Toasty Virus said:
No your not understanding meCrimsonsniper said:
Americans get it roughly 12-1pm pretty early on in the day yeah?
However Over here we get it at 6pm which is alot later on in the day
No your not understanding, there is a timezone difference, whats 12pm in the US, is 6pm in Britain. The game is availible to everyone at the same time, but the time of release vary's depending on your location. In short we can both play the game at the same moment, but your local time will be different from mine. This is the case for everyone in the world, depending on the company's country of residence, the time of release will be more convient for that nation than for others. Stop making it out to be some pro-american, anti-britain bullshit please.Toasty Virus said:
Well I downloaded it from steam but I have no idea if my computer will even be able to run it (probably highly unlikely). Maybe when it comes out I'll get the 360 version of it instead if it ends up turning out quite good which I hope it does because I'm intrigued of the idea of the whole thing.
No, I'm afraid you're not getting the OP's point. Even though the times are parallel, he has to wait "longer" for the game.Crimsonsniper said:
Assume that both party A (in America) and Party B (in the UK) wake up at 8am in each of their timezones. They wake up at different times relative to each other, however to each it appears to be 8am. Party A will wake up at 8, wait 5 hours and the game will be there. Party B will wake up at 8, wait 10 hours and the game will be there.
I'm not siding with the OP, however waiting can be a ***** when there's nothing else to do, and you missed their point.
Thanks for clearing that up for me, I was having trouble explaingOctorok said:
On another note, Is there anyone who played the Closed beta that can say if the game is any good?
