You all make it up to the base and are hiding in the tree line. And remember all these stormtroopers are real people who have gone through the academy (which would have "grade levels" they would have to pass to become a trooper), are trained well and have learned from older members of the game that strikes are not only possible, but are probable. Two of your team go to flank him but because his helmet has better audio receptors he hears your men coming and runs inside the building. Now through a mic he's telling the other troopers to get on high alert. Sirens sound and your team has been had. Just imagine blowing a hole into the base and the troopers are ready. The people playing as them know that if they die they have to start over. They're in essence playing to live. I mean that would be intense. But no. We have to have boring crap that's been done a thousand times.

they have that game (although not in Star wars form), It's called America's Army...and it's free to play...and free to download. you have to go through "boot camp" and various qualifying single player missions to be able to use different weapons. Like, say you want to be a sniper, then you have to gothrough 3 marksmen qualification courses.

Waht you don't like WOW?
Anyway, what im about to say..is very weird. I saw my friend play and i saw a freaky bug.

He was running away from a bear....and he was like, very far away from it. The bear did an attack animation (Kinda like 10 meter way) and IT HIM!!!

OOooh..talk about a well-done game! Or wait!!! Do you know about Cursed Blood? If not, check wikipedia!

You know what i hate most about Wow....its graphic aren't really amazing! They are kinda cheapy. I also heard to balance is awfull and when you choose a faction for your account, your stuck whit it! You can't select Horde or Alliance when you make a caracter. if you select Horde at first, your can't select Alliance. NEVER!

that first part that only happens when you're experiencing lag... and a decent amount of it I might add.

second the "cursed blood" thing was a bug that was fixed fairly quickly once the devs diagnosed the problem. that is the kind of thing that every online game (or every game for that matter) deals with, that's what patches are for.

and to your last comment: the graphics are cartoony because that's the way that warcraft's in game graphics have always been. WC1 through 3 all had cartoony graphics so they continued the tradition.

and as for being able to play only one faction... that is dead wrong...Unless you are on a PvP or a PvPRP server. on those servers they do that to prevent people from creating a character of the opposing faction to harass a member of that faction for killing them on their main character. If you are on an RP or a normal server you are free to make whatever character you with, Alliance or Horde.
