2006-03-08 15:00:52 The "GRAW Night" Thread

Since allot of u guys either have the game or will get it this weekend/next week i thought it would be a good idea to arrange a Ghost Recon night with users from this forum...

So anybody got any suggestions for a evening/night/date when we should do such a thing.

My suggestion would be Sunday the 19th of march,
this would give enough people time to get the game and the ones who need it; do some training :D

Well just sign up here and maybe post suggestions on a date or other stuff.
Maybe even doing a tournament (maybe a team tournament :D but i think we should arrange that later) would be interessting :D

Who's interested???

*Edit*:
We'll discuss the time later cause that's pretty hard to please everyone but we'll no doubt manage to find a time and date that fits most people...

Sir yes sir!
they don't call me the bullet magnet for nothing!

2006-03-08 15:29:37

I'm most concerned with actually getting GRAW today..I didn't pre-order, so I'll be hunting around at retail--I've been trying to call my closest EBgames since I woke--but their lines been constantly busy.

ohh your from Manhatten, man u lucky **** :D i've been to New York once, i luved it...

anyhow back on the topic:

Since we will have guys playing together from different times zones we might need a couple of servers from different regions so everyone can play with eachother and switch server to play with other forum users...

2006-03-08 16:48:51

I'm in, if i have a 360 at the time :)

2006-03-08 18:26:18

Got it! That was honestly a lot easier than I expected, first store I went to had several copies! :)

2006-03-08 18:49:35

Just picked it up an dplayed the training plus the first two levels....fucking amazing. I find satisfaction in knowing that some of the naysayers on this very site have been shut up once they saw it in action with their very eyes.

Some questions? In the glass does it only relfect the surroinds and not you? or does it also reflect you?
I'm not really sure if I should get this, will it be another shooter that I'll get bored for? I could save the oney for something else... I dunno
I'm starving for something more epic and like better art directions and such (Oblivion, Blue dragon etc)

Personally I think GRAW has great art direction--for an urban combat game it's awfully vibrant and the incredable light model really makes all those beautiful enviroments pop..everything is very polished..you can tell that the single player campaign was really, really important to these guys--in a lot of ways it seems superior to the mp to me--which is probably the games only flaw (and it's a pretty small one) I've been able to notice so far..there have been a couple of technical issues I've noticed but I'm not even going to bother to mention--considering what they accomplished I think that's sort of a non-issue..

And it's not just beautiful because of the fancy shader techniques and ridiculous light model..but man, it certainly helps :)

2006-03-10 10:53:20

So the following people would like to do a GRAW night are:

Roxwell
GriftGFX
Styx
Panzer
Archaos
Rayy

And i'm not sure about these guys cause they haven't confirmed it:

Optimusv2
Epidemic
Hasanahmad

Anyone else interested?

2006-03-10 11:02:58

:( If one of the last three are not interested, could they PLEASE send me their Xbox 360 so I can join in :(

I am too poor to own a 360... therefor I play with paper statistics. The results of my indepth scientific anaylisis determined the most important benchmark is Pi. As in The Ring of Light.

2006-03-10 11:47:16

Yesterday I played alot with some guys and I must say that this could be the best multiplayer ive ever seen. All the different modes and options, it's brilliant.
So we need to have a GRAW night, and to make myself clear, everyone who has got the game is forced to take part. If not, we will call you names until you bleed.

2006-03-10 15:36:05

I'm in, I should get a hold of it tonight hopefully.

2006-03-10 16:59:31

I haven't had a chance to play online much yet..just a couple of unranked ffa games to get the feel for the game--I have a quick question about the xbl interface for this game..is it at all possible to enter match making with a party? That's one thing that Halo 2 did so well--I know some people would have prefered to just get a server list--but I really liked how I could bring three of my buds into match making with me and we could easily find larger games to get into together..so yea, any such system here? Sorta annoying how it makes you wait in the lobby durring matches in progress too--would be nice if it atleast let you enter the game as a spectator..

Can't wait to try co-op, sounds fun too..

2006-03-10 20:20:08

I got it today and I’ve been playing the campaign mode mostly. Haven’t tried it on live yet, But I have been messing around with the local multiplayer, trying to get a feel for the levels.

Lots of fun ^_^

2006-03-10 21:09:02

No GRAW for me. Gonna hold it back for later.
