Return Fire 2 PC CD heat-seeking tank missiles game!

Have you ever heard of Baron R. K. Von Wolfsheild, the creator and designer of Return Fire 2? I didn't think so, and to be honest I have my doubts as to whether a person with that name really exists or not. But if Return Fire 2 catches on like I suspect it will, then Baron von Wolfshield might just become a household name - at least for PC gamers who are looking for a nearly perfect combination of action and strategy topped off with some pretty serious pyrotechnics.

Return Fire 2 doesn't waste time with a complicated story; all you know is that you're at war because the "enemy" has your flag and you want it back - now. There's no resource gathering or unit construction to worry about: Any buildings that are destroyed are gone for good, and you have a limited supply of up to six different units that you can hop in and control, one at a time. At various points during play you'll drive a tank, a minelayer equipped with heat-seeking missiles (called an ASV, or Armored Support Vehicle), a jeep (the sole land-based unit that can pick up and carry a flag), a jet (sort of like a Harrier), a helicopter (with rockets and machine guns), and even a PT boat (equipped with the heaviest weapon at your disposal).

Obliterating the enemy's offensive units, defensive fortifications, and various buildings is of course rewarding and results in extra medals and commendations, but it's not necessary to emerge victorious. All that's required is that you grab the enemy's flag and get it back to your base - which means it's possible (though highly unlikely) to win a battle without every encountering an enemy vehicle.

You begin each battle in an underground bunker, where you're shown a list of all available unit types and how many of each you've been allotted, along with a tiny radar map that gives you a general idea where your opponent's base and other structures are located. Choose a land-based vehicle, and a lift will take you to the surface; choose an air or sea unit, and you'll take off from an aircraft carrier that's slowly circling the island (a convention that means all battles take place on an island or group of islands).

Flags are kept inside heavily guarded Flag Towers, which are easy to spot because of their pyramidal shape. Bringing down a Flag Tower isn't all that difficult - a single bomb from the jet cracks one open in an instant - but the presence of decoy Flag Towers on all but the smallest maps complicates the discovery process considerably. Because the only way to retrieve a flag is in the nearly defenseless jeep, you've got to do a lot more than simply expose the flag. You also have to knock out enemy missile or gun turrets that could fire on you as you try to claim the prize you so desperately seek.

ITEM IS: USED - CD IN SLEEVE

WHAT YOU GET: This auction is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more then just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other then what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns. IMAGES: All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc. COMPATIBILITY: Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publishers' errors. PLATFORM: Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or Vista will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or Vista with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For Macintosh games, most older games will need to be run in classic mode if you have a newer MAC OS version. Please research google on how to do this, or send us a message for information. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work. MEDIA FORMAT: Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive. SHIPPING: We typcially ship all items out within 2-3 business days after payment is received. In regards to the stated shipping and handling, remember that these costs include more then just postage. We combine shipping and handling with each additional item after the first just $2 more. Message us for an invoice if ebay doesn't automatically adjust it. International buyers not shipping to an address within the U.S. can expect their orders to take anywhere from 5 days to 4 weeks to be received, depending on how fast/well USPS is moving. Additionally, international orders typically have to go through governmental customs, which can delay the arrival process. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE: Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion. Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help. Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer. Please message us prior to leaving negative or neutral feedback in order for us to help solve your problem.
