Epic PC Demo
I found it to be a pleasant surprise as well, but I don't think I'm quite at your level of excitement.
If it was about 1/2 the price I'd totally grab it, but I'll wait for now because I can tell it''ll get old quick.
Holy fuck. I played the demo on PS3 and I had a lot of fun, but I was hoping for a PC demo. I just played the PC demo and I think this game just became my most wanted game of games coming out soon. I played it on the hardest difficulty and just wrecked everything. So fun!
I'm downloading this now, for shits and giggles.
Edit: Played it on the highest difficulty, only because you don't get real ballistics on any other setting. Also, the ballistics in this game suck ass, and yet at the same time are awesome. The bullet deformation is not nearly enough, but its great to see a round tumble through 3 guys. The one thing that gets me is how much the rounds drop in this game. Its like gravity is 2 or 3 times stronger.
I wish they'd re-designed the levels a bit to allow more stealth and flanking. I wish I could jump from roof to roof and enter the buildings like a real sniper.

You played the original Ahmad? It was a fair bit less linear than this Demo level, but also so much harder. You had a small section of streets you could roam around in with some buildings/warehouses for vantage points.
Also can't wait to try the PC version after playing the Xbox one and enjoying it.
Sadly I played about 1 hour of it. I remember it being dead hard yeah, and more open than this demo.@AhmadMetallic said:

I only played it a couple of years ago on recommendation from my cousin. Good times. We managed to not only connect to the (still running) servers through his PS3, but actually join the only remaining game with two crazy German people.
Oh GOD, this is fucking GREAT.
Played the PC demo and had a bunch of fun, played the Xbox version and turned it off within 5 minutes... definitely a game for keyboard and mouse!
Holy shit, I shot someone's holstered grenade by accident... it went SUPER slow motion, slower than normal, and then an extremely slow-mo explosion.
I'm enjoying the demo, but the enemies have superhuman sense which is kind of a piss-off. Can barely get out of the first building without the street patrols just pouring after me. Otherwise it was a fantastic demo.
I played the demo, and I really like how realistic the sniping is. One thing that I do not understand though is how the "stealth" works. I feel as if the regular soldiers will see me from across the map no matter what. I have tried staying in shadows, crawling and ducking, and using the cover system to no avail.
