Wargame: European Escalation Gameplay

[colossus]

I don't know, to be honest. I haven't seen much gameplay yet, apart from the video in the original post that is; which I can't make much out of (no sound and crude alpha version).
It probably is a bit like WiC, but I suspect it's mainly very similar to RUSE at certain points.

New gameplay footage -


I won't be buying European Escalation as the gameplay looks far too arcadish, but I wish Combat Mission Shock Force had similar graphics.

I can't wait. Combat Mission put me to sleep.

I though it was WiC with better graphics.

I get the impression it's WiC but with ARMA tactics, scale and freedom!

EDIT: And much less restricive camera!

Did I just see hundreds of OPFOR infantry ambush a NATO column by sprinting at it from both sides, firing on the run? It looked like the first battle in The Two Towers, ffs.

Everything was going well until I saw that. And the giants red tracers. Really, wtf?

[GRS]

Yes, here's to hoping that's not really representative of how it plays out. Even if so its not like many other strategy games take problems like that into consideration so I don't see it being much worse just because of that.

Yes that was also my WTF?! moment. It looked really silly...
But I hope its just for the trailer.

from playing ruse i know that large numbers of infantry could take down armour...light armour mind so thats why you would do that

although armour would be more effective

hope this one turns out good, i cant wait for it
