the graphics in BiA HH (PC version) is really nice.. there are some indoors scenery in the beginning that is very cool... at the moment Im stuck in a field with hordes of germans attacking, and there is an MG42 which is stupid to use.. but I will do my best to hang on the interest the environment that caught me.

I look at my BiA HH experience as a chance to walk through the environment of this era, not to play a game or a story. A bit like a virtual reality theatre.

It's a fun game. Some get nitpicky on all the details how (un)realistic it is but... just compare it with any MoH release or CoD and you'll shaddup because you won't find any better unless you go maybe for Arma(!?) which is in modern time. Bleh.

It's a different game compared with anything else I've played anyways. Lots of action and cool stuff you can do. Especially with the pistol. Too bad SP is a bit short. I guess it's always like that in any game that offer a SP mode though.

Sink looks really cool and Cole died like he should. And yes, that sniper looked funny. And maybe is the bazooka a bit to powerful but it's so funny to blow up a sandbag MG position with it German minced meat!

What can you do with the pistol?

Nahh nothing special really... it's just really powerful :P Especially since I like to get up close and personal!

EDIT: The only thing that buggers me is that you get 20 mags for all the wpns you carry which is a bit lame. If the LHC existed back then and was active you'd get sucked up and been flying to the swiss border due to all the lead you got around your waist, in your pockets.

I have a question; For the PC version, is there offline coop? Like if me and my friend wanted to play it with a few controllers on my pc.

This is the only point I disagree with from your arguement.

As an avid shooter, I can say that the sights in the original BiA games were shit. You do not have that much fucking sway. FH2 actually got the amount of sway in real life dead on, while BiA was grossly, GROSSLY, exaggerated.

On the rest of your points, I am in total agreement.

Yes, in the first BiA's that was a bit too much but I still managed to get headshots

Actually. When I shoot (real life) I'm at the point where the gun doesn't even move (90% of the time stand to shoot). When you've shot for so long, you learn to control the gun, and you develop a steadyness.

I have read that Germans don't throw grenades? Is this true?? I have seen several screenshots that made me think "ouch, if the jerries throw one grenade they will take out the entire squad" such as a screensie showing a squad hiding behind a wall near some 88's that they have to tak out.

Not throwing grenades at a group of enemies (jerries or yankees depending on what side you are on) packed together (behind a low wall or something)would be kinda silly, unless soldiers like to play wack-a-mole and fire back and forth at eachother untill one side is killed off... besides who doesn't like a "Oh fuck gr BOOM *most of your squad is dead*" moments?
