Secret Weapons

[whipped]

In Secret Weapons of WWII, players will engage in war with a choice of up to 46 vehicles to control. In addition to the 30 vehicles introduced in the original game such as fighter planes, tanks, and aircraft carriers, players can operate 16 new vehicles including the Horton HO 229 "Flying Wing" that is equipped with 30 mm machine guns and missiles. Other vehicles consist of a U.S. Sherman tank with a T-34 Calliope rocket launcher, U.S. T95/T28 Super Heavy Tank, the Sturmtiger (naval gun mounted on Tiger tank), U.S. Goblin jetfighter, C-47 cargo plane that will serve as a mobile spawn point, the American Armstrong Whitworth AW-52 advanced fighter, the German Wasserfall guided anti-air missile and the German Natter rocket plane. Also, for the first time, Secret Weapons of WWII will give players the chance to fly and fight at the same time with a top secret German prototype Rocket Pack.

Rocket packs.

That movable spawn point will be a TKers' paradise.

I REALLY want to ignore this, and not buy it, mainly because it sounds like the sort of ideas that a bunch of 12 year olds would come up with. I like bf42 for it's vaguely realistic setting and arms loadout, this is just stupidity. However I imagine I'll end up giving the cash to EA, how I hate them.

EA will treat BF like the Sims and create numerous addons for us sheep to buy. Bastids.

New campaigns include My Back Garden, a thrilling battle between the German and French neighbours conducted in the verdant plains surrounding my garden shed; Great West Road, set on the border between Ealing and Brentford - watch out for that bus! - and finally, the new exciting battle, Find the X and Plant The Bomb, as shown in TV's Band of Kiddies!

Move out!

Can't wait.

Well, its worked for me so far. I'm not giving in to rip off EA and their addon packs!

The rocket pack thing..I can just imagine. I got this for its WW2 theme and not it sounds like it will turn into Tribes, I can see it now, everyone choosing to be able to fly around the map on their own :s
