World In Conflict: Soviet Assault
Posted by Luke Plunkett at 10:40 PM on April 11, 2008
Don't know what Soviet Assault is? Do keep up. It's the next World in Conflict release: for PC owners, it's a big expansion, for console owners, it's a standalone title. Here's the first footage to go along with the first details, along with the first [sigh] developer diary.

@AEREC: Yeah ok but that doesn't explain the bad accents.

Also if you havent finished the game, like me (im 2 missions from the end), there are some spoilers of how the first game ends.

@Cchrist:
Maybe because the people who make the game are not actors. Id ratehr hear this info from someone who made the game.

Why do they always insist on using boring people with bad accents for these kind of videos. Just like the Fable 2 dev diary. You can also hear he's reading what he's supposed to say.

@Cchrist: Massive Entertainment is a Swedish company or at least the guys who made the first WiC have their office in Malmö, Sweden. So it could be a swedish guy talking...

@Cchrist: Jesus, Cchrist, it's not a game developed by native English speakers. That's why.

Umm, it IS, Massive is based in Sweden.
WiC is like Ground Control, but crazier and with more Red Dawn going on -- plus the multiplayer is perfect.
I'm still not sure what else they're adding...since the original game was basically...a soviet assault. But hey, more WiC is fine by me.

The game is like what "Snake726" say. Control points, win "money" for the control, buy trops with that money. The ground control gameplay. The marketing thing "the rts for the fps generation" could be true here, because the ground control gameplay is really fast and unforgiving..

WiC is extremely awesome and I can actually see it working really well on console. Provided the frame rate isn't unplayable like Universe at War's was.
