World in conflict is a matter of taste. Not everyone will like it, best is just to try out the demo. If you liked Tom Clancy´s book "Red Storm Rising" then you are going to like this game also.
The singel player campaign is just too short and you are in charge of every unit. Its good to play it first as practice before you get online. Without having to concentrate on resource gathering, it turns into a more action game. Its almost as an fps, but you have more then one unit/person to control. You play on American, Russian and European soil with US, Russian or Nato troops/equipment.
The online mode is where you choose if you want to play only infantry, air (helos), support or armour. After you made that choice, then its time for you to choose what kind of units you will use in combat. There is snipers, anti-tank, heavy arty, M1 abrams, cobras, humvee´s, apc´s, Hind-24´s, shilkas and the list goes on....
As you play along and get kills you get special points which you can use on tactical aids.This is the fun stuff!
Here you find nukes, tankbusters, carpetbombing, napalm, rangers, laserguided bombs, clusters, chemical strikes, AA strikes, heavy airsupport, heavy arty barrage and daisy cutters and a few more stuff. So the once beutiful landscape is turned pretty fast into a wasteland.
Ok it wont get the title as this years best game. But it is fun and the graphics are good. You can make alot of graphical settings so it suits your pc. Here is two screenshoots of the tactical nuke, i have most of my settings on low and just a few on medium.
