user73 Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Hmm, - just a few new campaingns - the "many more... features" are not found or did you mean the not very nice eye-candy(like the stamps) in the menus ? - the new map for "storm of steel" features on the one hand a nice part of the USA but on the other hand Europe is still too small and inaccurate. Danzig (or Gdansk) is missing completely so where is the reason for war ? Wilhemshafen a big Submarinebase in WW II is missing too, the whole distances are too small and so on... Ever played the campaign "Europe Theatre" by Thrawn ? This is how Europe should look like, hopefully he will update his campaign for PdE some day. - The new decision making events just contain five events in "Storm of Steel" ? After I saw this, I didn't feel to try out the other campaigns, because I fell deceived. Or are these just bugs and thre will be worked on ? Excuse me for the bad english but I´m german 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 user73, No problem if you are not happy as we can't expect to possibly please everyone . For the new features, some may not be that apparent on the surface but of course there were quite a few additions that behind the scenes not only improve the AI but enhance the game quite a bit during game play. As mentioned, the DECISION events, Global Variables and Event links give us much more power in the campaign design and allow for a much better connection between AI and player actions and in game events. There are of course other features such as the refined interface, land loops, #LEVEL flags now scriptable for all events, Editor changes etc. and for a complete list I would refer you to the VERSION NOTES changes on the complete work put into the new expansion. For your reference to bugs, I think this word now has too broad a definition of use that it is difficult for me to answer specifically since what you mention is more or less a difference of opinion on the design decisions rather than something technically wrong with the game. In terms of a difference of opinion, again I have no problem with this at all since this is one of the reason we highlight the game features on our product pages and release a Demo, and if after that you feel the product is not for you then that is fair enough. Hope this helps, Hubert 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaric Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 greetings, these games are a work in progress, i must say to not failed to truth that are very pleased seeing the AI opponent playing maybe 3x (speed) than before, i do not mean it was before slow, it is reasonable for a game of all these variables in place to AI make decisions but now, manage to play around 20 turns in only 3/4 hours, it is the best feature for me, now we can setup with the already outstanding editor on our hands, a game from straight world war 2 to a cold war conflict, all in the same engine in games much more fast, i am very pleased with this purchase, and say this to not failed to truth, best regards, alarick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
