FREE FPS game Combat Arms
on: August 12, 2008, 11:20:18 PM
Have any of you computer gamers tried the new, free FPS game Combat Arms?  It is worth a look.  I've been playing it the past few days and it's addicting.  The graphics aren't cutting-edge, but it is very playable and the action is smooth and stutter-free, even on moderate systems.

I'm not sure if it's available in Europe yet, but I know you can play it in US and "Oceania".

There are some great screenshots here: http://media.pc.ign.com/media/142/14255659/imgs_1.html

I play BF2 and 2142 regularly, and love this game.  It isn't nearly as detailed--there are no vehicles, it's just infantry fighting, but the gameplay is very good!

Yes, my clan name is -=PureEvil=-  My nick is -=PE=-Maj_Buzz.  It is the same in Combat Arms.

I built a small website for our clan here: http://pureevil.us

At one time about two years ago we had 70-80 members and one of the most popular BF2 servers in the US, but the clan has divided several times and we're down to only 10 or 15 members now.  We started as a Battlefield 1942 clan with a Desert Combat mod server, moved to BF2 and now most of the members play COD4.

I still miss Desert Combat!

well it's a no go under linux, can't even get the installer to run properly... so...  I rebooted into winXP (something rather rare these days!) and installed it there, signed up for a nexon account, tried to connect and alas, europe is still not able to play  :twak:      >:( :( :cry:

there's always Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory - another good free one for pc/mac/linux... that is if enough of you care to install it and play at the same time that is...

Sorry to hear that....  If I hear that they've opened it up to other areas of the world, I will pass it on.

There's no catch that I'm aware of, and I've been playing for two weeks.  You can purchase new weapons, but you don't have to.  You can also buy weapons with credits earned in the game (for free!).

I read that when I signed up... I assumed that 2 weeks was enough time, but apparently not... Keep an eye open for the euro launch date...
