LOTR Conquest Demo


Recommended Posts

I love it. Yes, it's not the best made game in the world. Things were rushed, corners were cut, but it's such a lot of fun to play. I loved Battlefront and I'm liking this just as much.

When it first loaded up i thought it was going to be like the Return of the King game on the ps2 that had an excellent co-op mode.

But the lack of being one of the main characters,having to change specialities (especially the stealth guy) and something weird about the flow of the game made me stop the tutorial after about 5 mins.

I couldn't be bothered making an EA account, and i hate the on screen keyboard.

Conquest is based off the old Battlefront formula. To become one of the 'Heroes', you need to be the best man on the battlefield.

The tutorial is crap. It's no surprise MP comes higher than SP in the main menu - this is definitely a multiplayer game with a crappy singleplayer bolted on, much like Bad Company.

I'm addicted to the demo. Everywhere i've seen negative opinions from this demo and when i started it up i wasnt impressed. But as soon as i jumped into multiplayer it suddenly grew on me and I just cant stop playing it.

I think i will always prefer SW:battlefront as im a sci-fi junkie and shooting compared to close combat. But in the end both are great.

I think the game's major flaws are it's graphics which are quite ugly but I don't care much for graphics in a game like this. But the main flaw is the number of players; 8v8 is just too small for the epicness of the LOTR battles. there really should be at least 32 players duking it out on the battlefield. The films gave us breath taking visuals of thousands upon thousands of men in a battlefield. I think this game would really work with the system of MAG where there are 256 players.

I'm giving up competitive fps gaming, and (yeah even though corners have been cut) I'm really enjoying the demo at the moment. I guess I'll be selling some games to buy it when it eventually comes out.

I for one really enjoyed Return of the King on PS2, and I'm looking forward to this too.

I actually thought BF:BC SP was actually alright! Definitely wasn't bolted on this time around unlike previous games.

I like LOTR games so will give this a try.
