True, but you might just be looking at some pictures of ones in a musuem. Display art for the public is alot differant then stuff in the field.

WoP is probably exempt from this law because it is a online download product



Makes no difference to me. Although I would prefer it to be there for historic acuracy. And German law dictating what we can see and do is rather iritating.

I Believe Sabateur has two versions. I have seen videos of that game with swastikas everywhere (North Amerian release?). Then later when the came came out here I saw the trailer had them all replaced by a black luftwaffe type cross on red backbround. I asume this is the European Version.

Gotta agree w ya there Pope. As much as I hate any kind of nazi symbolism, any law that restricts freedom of speech or expression seems like a victory for the nazi way of thinking.

Agree with both of you guys but I think the German governments restrictions comes down to symbolism and what ultimately the Nazi regime did. It's therefore associated with a period in history they would now rather forget.
I have to buy special transfers for my airfix kits as they don't come as standard which is a ball ache but hey we live in strange times nowadays!

Snapped a bunch of photos of the Lord of War mission.

The controls take getting used to. The game is pretty good but, since there is no MP like BoP it isn't for me.

that i highly doubt you will see. any developer or publisher would be insane to included the actual symbol of an extremist group in their game for players to trash. these groups have no sense of humor and when offended they seek violent retaliation as punishment. nope, you dont poke the cat....pope feeds them on occasion but that is a complete other story :grin: . you do this and one day a fan would walk into the lobby of the company seeking to get an autograph on his copy of the game...the author obliges and KaBoom! sad state of affairs this world is having to walk through.

They give all Muslim people a bad name, so much for their Jihad.

Training mode in BoP is good but the AI isn't very challenging. And playing the campaign over and over again has gotten boring. The only thing left keeping many people playing it is MP. If A:AA doesn't have this on a later patch, it had better be cheap for low length of play.

I agree with you there. MP is the only reason BoP is as successful as it is. it will be interesting to see how this coop in A:AA works out. might surprise all of us. and then again as players we can always bastardize the senario ...disregard the mission and DF each other...lol. if it can happen...it will.

Well As a long time gamer and flightsim nut I must say this game has the potential to be epic . It's been a long time since a decent ground attack chopper game came out and for console to boot . The graphics are step up from BOP add to the fact that on line will be co-op with custom skins . plus play back feature ... I am speechless . Interestingly some of the bugs from Daggor game play engine seem to persist in demo as they did BOP. @ 60 Bucks this is a must buy

This reminds me of LHX Attack for the old Genis

The play back feature is pretty neat. Something that would have been interesting to see in BoP.
