Tom Clancy’s End War VIP 360 demo is (finally) live
Ubisoft has sent an email informing us that the Tom Clancy’s End War VIP 360 demo has finally gone live, and as a reward for your patience you get an extra VIP key for a friend. Isn’t that nice.
“We apologize for the repeated delays on the EndWar VIP demo and we are pleased to confirm that the demo is now LIVE!!” says the mail. “As a thank you for your continued patience we are sending a second code for you to share with a friend.”
So check your inboxes and get downloading all 1.6Gb of it. And no, you can’t have our spare code.
Thanks, BraveArse.

I just opened the e-mail and found a load of messed up code at the top, and a pic of earth at the bottom followed by black, to see the text i was forced to high-light it… Very Odd…

yeah i had that too – you’d think they had enough time with all these delays to get an html email properly coded.

Yeah me too. Took me ages to work out I had to highlight the page and my code would appear.
I doubt I’ll be able to get on it tonight. Tomorrow though perhaps. My tag is: runnersdialzero

Dl’ing it now, strangely slow for something off Live, even if it is 1.64Gb…

Anyone managed to setup their headset in-game? No matter what i do its all just static, sending an audio message is perfect, as is talking to someone, no idea whats up…
EDIT: after just leting it sit there whilst i check the internet, it decided to stop its static shenanigans, no idea what just happened.

I’m mildly disappointed by it. Is there any way to bring up a top down strategy view? I quite like being in the thick of it – but sometimes I just want to look at a map and figure out who’s where.
The voice stuff is exceptional tho.

You can press ‘back’ to bring up a tatical map, but thats it. I agree with you, its not that great really, the camera sucks, plain and simple, its only real interesting feature is the voice command.

It’s such a shame – The theatre of war stuff sounds great. I loved that concept in ChromeHounds – but it’s utterly pointless if the gameplay itself is uninspiring at best.
For a demo – it’s really poor. It just leaves you in the dark.
