It worked for me without hassle but I'm not really impressed...

*edit* I adjusted some graphics settings. Im more impressed but it still feels like a COD4 mod instead of a new game. Not sure I want to dish out $50 yet.

I still can't run it. Even after fixing the DLL error.

Beta seems to work for me BUT it does not allow me to switch to 1280x1024 resolution.  1024x768 does not loog good on my monitor.  I installed the latest drivers from nvidia too.  I playes it for about an hour last night.  It's pretty much exactly like cod4 but with a ww2 theme.  Down to the create a class and perks.
That's Mr. Deception to you.

Sorry for the double post, but we can;t edit our posts anymore.


When I switch to 1280x1024 it drops me to the desktop but the codWAWbeta.exe is still running in the processes but it doesn't show up in the running applications.  Just weird.
That's Mr. Deception to you.

Well, now that it's running. It seems like a COD4 mod, but it seems to be brighter with more color to me.

That is because since WWII the TV tube of life has lost some of the clarity and brightness it once had.  It is wearing out after all.  If they make a COD: Next Generation Warfare game we will probably need flashlight mods as everything will be dark all the time.
Never, but never question the engineers judgement.
