Battalion Wars 2 Wii Review

[Demanufacturer]

Good review. I think the holding by the hand thing is good. I disagree that because its a sequel they should done it down - but I DO agree they should have the option to turn it off.

[DEIVION212]

Thanks :)

[ZOCKERBUISNESS]

thanks! nice vid :D

[DEIVION212]

Cheers, glad you liked it :)

[DEIVION212]

Thanks, will do :)

[DEIVION212]

Yup, that's unfortunatly a problem with being tongue tied. I'll never be able to swallow my own tongue and die in my sleep, however I find it difficult to pronouce T with any real strenth.

[DEIVION212]

Not a chav. Don't do drugs, don't murder people, don't have fifteen kids with fifteen partners.

Also don't speak with chav mannerisms.

Quite frankly if you think this is what a chav sounds like, then you've clearly never met a chav.

@DEIVION212

You forgot to add Pitbull terrier,jungle music and a skinhead with hooded top.

Ps. thx for review,just picked this baby up for £3.21 on Ebay. Very happy indeed.

[DEIVION212]

Lol.

Thanks :)

[luanteixeira1995hotm]

hey man, nice video and game

[DEIVION212]

Thanks :)

[spacefaget]

Did you not watch the vid?

Suck my dick

[DEIVION212]

Wow, you're so hard.

Point is people come here and ask questions that I answer in the vid, I don't have the time to reply to things I've already answered, so if you want to be lazy and ask, then just go fuck yourself.

[daveyajr10]

looks like a cool game =)

[bobbyblabby11]

can you switch units in the game for example your a mackine gunner and you see a flame unit can you switch to it?

[DEIVION212]

Did you not watch the vid?

Yes, you can swap anytime.

[itchybruno]

do u need to use a wiimote to play this, or can u use a classic control or gamecube control?

[DEIVION212]

Did you not watch the vid?

Wiimote and Nunchuck only.

[ecw159]

i want a Battalion Wars 3 :)

with co-op offline and versus too

[DEIVION212]

Ditto :)

[sprogmcjob]

um is there a 2 player option (other than online) didnt think i saw an option on the menu so the only way of playing people is online?

[DEIVION212]

No :(

It sucks, and it pisses me off because it'd be perfect for it.

[neostar9]

Do your forces attack enemies when they are in range or do you have to tell them to attack all the time for them to do anything?

[DEIVION212]

They're pretty useless without commands, so you'll be doing commands all the time.

[luke4liverpool]

gonna get this for £8 if its in game :p

[Jadexter]

yeh maybe the creators of BWii r just sad loners with nothing else 2 do so thy just impose on the wrld no1 shud hav mates lol

[Jadexter]

local mulitplayer is the best probaly i men of corse i say that i havent got WiFi but then if i did get it it wudnt be fun without local mulitplayer :(

[DEIVION212]

I think all games need it, because I hate this online co-op and multiplayer only crap. What about those of us who actually have mates?

[ButterJunge]

Damn online gaming! Why do no games have local multiplayer any more!

[DEIVION212]

I know, doesn't half do my head in.

[Mongoose007]

a lot of games can't support it (local MP), like Crackdown. Two agents on one Xbox would've made the game crash. People are such Graphics whores nowadays that stronger graphics are necessary instead of Co-op split-screen. (See: KIllzone 2)

[StrawberryGuy86]

I'm starting to think... maybe I should check out this game. Who knows... maybe I'll have a blast. (Wow, that's kinda a bad pun.)

[Mickeymac92]

Yet another great Review!

I was pretty dissappointed with this one when I got it. The story wasn't as charming, and the missions weren't as fun(granted, I stopped playing after the first few missions). However, the online component looks pretty interesting, and it's good to hear that you can still find some games. Your review really makes me want to go back and play this again!=)

[DEIVION212]

Yeah totally agreed bud, I prefer 1 but prefer that this has multiplayer.

Thanks :)

[Drizzydid]

Also, is there offline multiplayer cuz that would rock co-op and competitive

[Drizzydid]

Do your ai teammates attack on their own like in call of duty or do u have to tell them to attack what every time. I actually really like what ive seen...gears of war wii!!! XD with added color

[DEIVION212]

You can set them to stand in one area and they'll attack anything that they see, and when you give them no orders at all, they will attack if provoked, but for the most part, you'll have to send them orders if you want any chance of surviving.

No offline :(

[Drizzydid]

Wow how can u not at least have co-op in a game like this, this is the same concept as stars wars battlefront 2 on ps3 and they had it and that was the funnest way to play it. Im really surprised they missed the ball on this one...big loss having no co-op splitscreen or competitive local army wars...very big loss for the game. :(

[DEIVION212]

I know.

I swear down though mate, sometimes I think that myself and yourself are of a dying breed. No one seems to care about local multiplayer anymore :( :( :(

[ForcastKarl]

nice. i have this game. why u put 2 twice? u made me think it was a sequel to the second part with that.

[DEIVION212]

'cause it's like that on the menu for some odd reason.

[ForcastKarl]

i think i see what ur talking about, but they just put it because they put BWII and then put Battilion Wars 2.

its the abbrev.

[damagejackal10]

Are you a Geordie??

[DEIVION212]

Mackem, just have a Geordie accent somehow.

[FF7ACJW]

I'm stuck on a certain mission. I still love this game. I'e had it since it came out though

[grorusso]

great review i might pick this up it's pretty cheap and i hope there are as many players in this game like mario kart which is easy to find people

[DEIVION212]

I found it dead easy to get a battle and it's been out for well over a year. And it should be cheap, it's why I've bought them now, finally got to about the £10 mark instead of, well, £30 for used.

Which is only £10 away from new.

[grorusso]

ok then i'm definitely getting it! i wanted to get a good online game and this mightt be it :D i'm also getting the condult and the grinder i'm starting to buy shooting games since i have like 2 GC shooting games and 1 wii shooting game

[DEIVION212]

Grinder???

[grorusso]

yes is another FPS for the wii and it also has online it;'s co-op btw

[DEIVION212]

Cool, might be worth a look :)

[grorusso]

well im not liking it too much i hate online co-op games especially fps i hate the jerks online either they see you getting your butt kicked by monsters or bugs(onslaught wiiware) or just act stupid if your a sniper(call of duty world at war wii) but still even if that happens you can still win im good in call of duty world at war wii even with playing with idiots

[daegranos]

The mortar unit is the best IMO, great against infantry and does enough damage per shot to take out a tank.

[daegranos]

The original is better imo, better story and the difficulty is better (BW2 is too easy, i got 100% in the first 3 campaigns).

i did like the co-op mode (versus is crap because nintendo wifi sucks).

also, you should roll around your (locked-on) enemy, you don't get damage that way.

[grorusso]

it's probably the creators of the game wi-fi is not crap because of nintendo lol just look at mario kart!

[DEIVION212]

I do roll around on 1, but I can't do it on 2, the Nunchuck control for it just plain out sucks IMO.

Which is why I'd say that 1 is better, no motion controls.

I prefer the pointer for aiming, but I hate jumping and dodging by shaking.

[Wiithereviewersclub]

Great review! I really enjoy this game, I'd reccomend buying it.

[DEIVION212]

Thanks :)

[Wiithereviewersclub]

No prob.

[theberzerker0]

Love the reviews, dude.

But whats wrong with playing online?

[DEIVION212]

Cheers :)

Lag, disconections, conection problems, racism (Main thing that put me off online, there's to many Americans who just hate the British and they all seemed to find me. I was even stalked by some, and it's just not worth the constant hassle. So I stopped talking, but when you can't talk on team battles, it kinda sucks, hard!), music being blared over the mics of users, them just shouting, some guys are royally innapropriote (Teaching kids sex ed over a Halo game. Seriously!), etc...

[banjosolid]

ah yes the yanks are the same on xbox live

[DEIVION212]

It's mainly Live where I've experienced it. Never used a headset on my P.C or PS3 for more than 5 mins, lol.

[PhyA52]

I use to own the first game for GC. I loved it until I realized that there is no melee attack. What soldier can't do a melee attack? That really pissed me off. Please tell me that they fixed that for part 2... Great review, by the way.

[Derek14packers]

they didnt but its still an amzing game and why the hell would you get that clsoe to melee atack anyways

[PhyA52]

You get close in a lot of instances. Even in this vid. A more valid question is - why can't a soldier do a melee attack? Very aggravating while you play.

[DEIVION212]

Yeah, they should have knives and be able to pistol whip.

[DEIVION212]

Cheers :)

[wizzgamer]

great review have to pick this up sometime the game im talking about not the review lol

[DEIVION212]

XD XD XD

LOL, Cheers :D

[Derek14packers]

buy it

[conrom007]

wow looks good now....i have a question *ahem* is this game a little humorous cause i'll buy it if it is lol =D

[DEIVION212]

Kinda, not really my sence of humour but it's totally stupid.

Same with the first one :)

[conrom007]

*looks around* *whispers* stupid is my middle name *giggles* =P

[DEIVION212]

I like stupid myself, but this is not my kind of stupid. Hard to say really, it's not serious is the kind of daft/stupid I mean.

Whereas I like my stupid to be really stupid XD

Like full on insane XD

[Derek14packers]

it is humorous and one of my favourite games ever made so buyyyy it

[conrom007]

coool thanks =D
