Running with Rifles
« on: August 25, 2011, 10:55:11 PM »
I usually don't reccomend games to other people, but for some reason, I feel more immersed into this small, free, 20 megabyte indie game than some high-budget FPS like CoD.


In the game, you start out as either the Goodies (green) or Baddies (grey). You can set the accuracy of the bots, as well as how many troops are on each team (up to 1000). You are one of the soldiers, and you are given directions by the AI commander to attack certain areas. You can see the curent orders by pressing the TAB button. As you kill enemy soldiers, you slowly gain rank and are able to have other troops follow you into battle. You can select your starting rank from the beginning of the game, starting at "Private", who commands no one, and ending at "Captain", who commands 7 troops.



This game is really exciting. One moment, you can be making a final stand with a few squadmates in your trench against a charging battalion of enemies, the next you'll be making a charge to retake that trench with 30 other men, hurling grenades and bombarding the enemy position. You could be running from a far away area to a new one in order to reinforce your comrades with your squad, and you could be retreating from the enemy onslaught to a better position. It's really fun and it has a habit of making you tell other people about it :)

Get crashes just before reaching the fighting.
I'm young, black, rich and famous.
I got ten dollars hanging from my anus.

If you don't feel my flow
I will steal your ho
After I steal your ho
I will kill your ho
Raise her from the dead
Count up all my bread
After I am fed
I will make that ho re-dead

There's a configuration setting inside the files. You may want to turn off the VynSync, or antialiasing on it, if your computer can't run it.

I like it. WW1 might have worked better though. Great game anyway, I hope it will keep getting better :wink:

WW1 would be good, but they didn't have automatic rifles. The random crossfire from machine guns and assault rifles makes it more intense.

I love the deadliness of the weapons, but it can get annoying :lol: Played on 400 soldiers, need to try 1000 next.

Oh wait.


There's actually a WW1 mod in development I think.


Yeah, getting shot dead from two stray shots of a G36 is annoying.

So far the best tactic for me has been lurking in the trenches and knifing the AI. I suck otherwise :(
The Road goes ever on and on
    Down from the door where it began.
    Now far ahead the Road has gone,
    And I must follow, if I can,
    Pursuing it with eager feet,
    Until it joins some larger way
    Where many paths and errands meet.
    And whither then? I cannot say.
