that's by far the best GRAW multiplayer video yet. the levels look fantastic, I love it where the sniper is up on the hill looking down over the whole little shanty town, smoke rising from some grenade or flare, and he starts taking pot shots at the drone. the death animations look great too, I can't wait to buy this!

does anyone know if your accessories [helmet vs baseball cap, etc] affect your stats, your protection, or are they purely cosmetic?

also, when will we see some single player media? does someone have an exclusive or are they under nda or what?

I agree. And yes, the death animations were outstanding. Great ragdoll physics there.

I love how he was emphasizing how important sound is to the game. I have 5.1 surround (7.1 actually) and being able to place enemies by sound will be huge.

This game is looking to be one of the best online shooters ever.

That's the one I was thinking of! That looked so brutal! I love it!

I want to see how a guy drops from a headshot since I pretty much stick to sniper rifles in multiplayer co-op. Rifles in multiplayer solo. I don't know how guys use the heavy machine guns. So unrefined.

totally, I'm so glad I have some rich friends with a sweet HD 5.1 setup.

if this plays as good as it looks like it does, and it's well balanced and everything [I've never played any GR games before, this willl be my first] I'll bet it'll be the game to beat on Live.

/edit/

there was at least one headshot drop... I think it was on the beach, looking out over the water, and another on the beach level where the guy was up on a hill. both looked sweet, suckers dropping like sacks. :lol

First off, a good 5.1 setup isn't expensive at all. I have the Onkyo HT-S780 (the receiver is a component switch too which is handy since my tv only has one component input). and it costs $500 at circuit city. And trust me, it's worth the investment since it's 7.1 so you "future proof" yourself. Here's a link to that system

HT-S780

And you're lucky that this is your first GR game. The first one was awesome in MP but I hated it in SP. This one looks to have a killer SP experience. The multiplayer is where it's at. I love how you just can't "run 'n gun" like in Halo. You actually have to think, duck, perch, shimmy to actually survive.

Defintely not a fan of Ghost Recon mainly because I didn't think graphical level supported the type of gameplay.

That said, I'm pumped for GRAW mainly because its gonna own XBL for 3-4 months after ts released.

What does that mean?

i think it means he is gigadent?

Goodness, tell me you're kidding. You are kidding, aren't you?

Anway, I wouldn't worry about the "graphical level" of this game.

more new multiplayer footage up @ gametrailers
my friend who works there says they finally got a 360 debug and are playing full versions of GRAW and FNR2 as we type, can't wait to hear more impressions.

/edit/

^ that video is awesome!

That video is excellent. Oblivion for offline and Ghost Recon: AW for online play. That will do as my 360 game collection for a few months

 

[siamesedreamer]

What the hell's a gigadent?

Anyway, if you've played the other ones on Xbox they are not exactly the best looking games. In this type of game where you're constantly looking for guys somewhat far away, its very difficult to do when the graphics aren't that good. Tha'ts all I was trying to say.

But, like someone else stated, that's not gonna be much of a problem in this one.

I had zero trouble finding people. It just seems like you sucked at the game.

The first GR was "okay", GR2 had great graphics.
