New Video and Q&A

[Kingpin]

There is a new XBox 360 video on the main site in the Videos section.  It is a nice theatric trailer showing off some helo scenes and some squad action.  There is also a PC Weapons Q&A on the main site here: http://www.ghostrecon.com/uk/newspost.php?id=14702

It has nice new information for us to enjoy :smile:

Is it possible to take weapons on the body of dead enemies? Or dead allies?
Some soldiers would argue that you do not use a weapon you do not know, as it could be badly maintained or booby trapped. We can however pick up ammo in the field.

interesting perspective.  I wouldn't have thought about it.  However, could they program it so you have the option but run the risk of misfiring or being hit with the trap?

[Alfie] Some of the recent games have gone to a minimalistic approach when it comes to the HUD. However, GRAW seems to be going the opposite direction. Do you think there comes a point where it may be information overload for the gamer?
[rsePrince] I fully agree that there is a point where information overload is possible in gaming. The good thing about GRAW is that you can remove certain aspects of the HUD that you don't like.

well thank god.  that things a monster.

eeeesh.  the videos make it seem a lot more action-ey and untactical than i was lead to believe.  i hope they don't screw this one up.

Well, it was a video from the XBox 360 version, which, from the sounds of it, should be a lot more action-y than the PC version

actiony perhaps because it's those scripted moments, the videos of normal gameplay weren't like that, from what I remember.

Being able to minimize HUD aspects is going to get some people interested again, it was a big concern for some. I'd just like to know exactly what it is you can remove, but we'll have to wait, perhaps a demo, if we're lucky.
