I'm not sure if this is an ingame screenshot or not - but if it is, i'm impressed.

Then again, I'm very easily impressed..........

What?  They could be tracer rounds, no?

That looks pretty nice, graphic wise.

It's from GEARBOX...they guys who ported Halo over from the XBox!

[Unknown Target]

Sooo...it's gonna suck?

Seriously, Gearbox did a pretty lousy job, all things considered.

Anyway, that looks like an edited screenshot, you know, with some blur and color adjustments applied. I've seen the same thing done with IL-2 screenies. (You should check them out, they look EXACTLY like the real thing).

It's...in...game...ohmygod...yes. This is going to rock.

[J3Vr6]

And I'll never be able to play it unless I spend another 400 beans on my computer

[Rictor]

oh yay! another WW2 game!

Seriously, lthe graphics rock, but the "borthers in arms" angle has been played since MOHAA. I don't see any revolutionary gameplay comming from this game. Home come there are no gmes where you play as the Russians?

Band of Brothers the game.

edit: I am a very, very bad speller. Just thought it'de be easier to inform than to correct the mistakes.

The scenery etc is based on photographs etc taken by soldiers during a real WW2 mission, so it at least contains some accuracy. Interesting looking, but I think I'll wait and see how things come along before making a decision.

Play as the Russians? You'd be playing only to freeze your ass of in Siberia.

BF1942 allows you to play as Russians as well... though it's not exactly exclusive to Russians.

Thats right, it did have a Russian campaign. I never played it, but I know it had a Russian SP element, which was the last and hardest of the three, correct?

In mother Russia, the children think of you!

(is that right?)

[adwight]

When I first saw it, I thought it was a real picture.  Wow that's amazing.

In a way... the state owns the children untill they are 18. So they think for them and thus think of you... and how to own you as well

In WWII Russian infantry didn't use the AK-47.  I forget the name of the weapon but it was pre-WWI in origin.  Although many weapons used by infantry were pre-WWI origin anyways.  General Russian infantry at the beginning were underequipped.  By the end they were much better armed.

Retouched IL2 screenshots look good...but not THAT good.  Certainly what I've seen from UT2004, Far Cry, and a couple of others suggests this is well within the realm of possible.
