If you're a republic aim for a guy with high diplomacy stats. Outside of that, spend magistrates to up your cultural tradition, and then buy a high level (5-6 star) diplomat adviser.

Try not to get to that high level in the first place - those are called badboy wars, when your infamy is so high it makes others declare war on you, and then your badboy goes even higher.

Also, USE THE HOLY WAR CB, or any CBs for that matter. If you can avoid it, do not Declare War with no CB! Also, try to take land only from the country who the CB was issued to - countries who joined said victim in the alliance dont have a CB on them, so you'll get massive infamy for taking even one province (+4 PER uncored province).

But when i press the Declare War button, i see that i have no CB and after that, Holy war CB, Diplomatic insult CB etc'. so what's the deal? do i have CB or not?

The info I got from the official xbox magazine seemed pretty good.
You have to fight both zombies and special forces, and you can kill the special forces and cause blood which then sends the zombies toward the special forces instead of you. Then the whole zombies spot you by sight, smell, and sound sounds cool.

Also the fact that you can basically change the resident evil storyline depending on what happens. ie you can kill characters like Leon.

After thinking about it I think it sounds really good if they pull it off well. I'm not worried that its a shooter instead of survival horror. Idk about ammo counts but according to what I read the makers said the game was "giving the player a big gun and actually letting him use it"

I hope you are right. Cause I need another zombie game.

Have you played Killing Floor?

[sepheronx]

Have you played Killing Floor?

Yeah. It is alright though. Just don't find it as fun as I did back when it was a UT2K4 mod.

Oh that's too bad, I'm quite a big fan.

Oh and forgot to post specs for my system, for you nerds out there, critique:
Core i5-2500K
MSi Twin Frozr III 6950 2GB
8 GB DDR3 1600 Kingston Ram
Antec 300 case
2 Tb Hitachi 7200RPM 6gb Sata 64mb cache hard drive
ASUS p8p67 LE (REV3) mobo
Antec 750 watt power supply
Samsung Blu-ray drive
Asus 23.6 inch screen

Came out to about ~1300, shipping included. Oh and a free copy of Shogun 2, how nice of you Newegg.

After years of ****ty laptop gaming, I cannot wait.

Not bad! 1300 is not a bad price at all for that setup.

Im thinking of purchasing the 460 2Win for my system. But currently, I haven't even played a game that struggles out my 5870...

Yeah I was feeling the GPU would be overkill, but, I admit, I splurged, once in a lifetime is allowable after all. What attracted me to the MSI was their custom cooling design supposedly makes the card much quieter, both when casually computing and when running some absurd game. I don't really want a comp that sounds like a PAK-FA flying by every time I use it.

One thing you may have to keep an eye on when it comes to MSI cards, especially with their custom coolers, is a whining sound from the coils, as they heat up. It is currently an ongoing issue with MSI nvidia 560, and heard same thing with their ATI line. But their custom coolers are best imo. Far better than reference design at least.

hot damn! Now I want this.

Hopefully Slant Six pulls it off well. Would love to play it with some friends.

I hated SOCOM: Confrontation but thats the only game they have made that I've played. (though they have only made SOCOM games)

First SOCOM game was good.

[kinney_bmx]

First SOCOM game was good.

That was a different team. Slant Six did like the two PSP titles and then confrontation.

I still have faith in them to do a good job because I really want this game to be good. And hopefully not very expensive

My bad.

This is somewhat ambitious project, especially with a big title like RE. Hope they do well.

Yeah same here. Because the concept sounds awesome. Especially the "baiting" and the way the zombies sense you.

Anybody played Shift2 yet? I liked the original but I haven't really heard much about this one
