Just downloaded it, seems fairly good for a free game. Anyone else on it?
May take a look. Have nothing else to do ATM.

took me ages to download but i've had a brief play on it, seems good.
everyone was just waiting each side of the nomans land, so me being the rebel that i am went on a one man offensive..... and got annihilated by 3 people
How big was the download?

I downloaded LOTR on dial-up, then got banned from BT Internet for breaking the terms and using an auto-redialler. Thing is I was actually getting out of bed about 4 times a night over 3 days to reconnect the modem. Those BT fools frames me for a crime I didn't commit!

Me and Jam used to play it, used to be a decent game.. there's been a fair few updates since so not sure what it's like now!
Anyone up for a game then?

made a mistake, name is Magster(not magster121) but will be playing at some point tomorrow
Still play it, They recently added physics to the game (like jumps, falling off cliffs etc) and it suddenly became a lot more fun.
Remarkably good for a free game

You need XP to be able to research things. Enter some battles to gain some XP and silver and gi from there. Shall we create a .org clan?

Ah yes. I've got 94 xp but I've only killed 3 people and died about a million times.
Can do. But we all need to beef up are tanks otherwise we'll look like pussies! We cquod have org only matches

Annoyingly I haven't made a single kill but have been killed in every battle. But I have managed to research up to the British cruiser II tank.

It's ok. Pretty repetitive. A really simple game with a massively over complicated menu/interface. Bit lame that. I'll drop a msg here if I have a go tomorrow.

It's ridiculous mate. Annoyingly complicated for such a simple game. Basically select a tank, click the research button, click on everything you can to research, then go back to the garage, click the icons for the load out of the tank and click everything you can to equip. Repeat each game!
Then there's loads of pointless arsing about with supplying and reloading. After a battle click service and fanny around in there with the "auto reload" and "auto repair" buttons and that should be enough.

Thats what i find, easier to click buttons and figure things out. Then go into a battle a find out who on your team is a man and who are the mice.

@Chris - I've been trying to invite you and Job into my platoon for the last 10 minutes. Now I'm going to make a brew while I wait for you to figure out how to accept.
chris8886
29-12-12, 02:46 PM

Unless you have premium you can only have 2 people in the platoon

Me and Job were some sort of ninja tank squad today, but we need someone to get premium to create a proper platoon. 2 is the max for free users!
