Long time lurker, first time customer, one VERY disappointing bug...


Recommended Posts

Bought the game, have played two games to completion, one as Allies, one as Axis. Love most of it, but there is one bug that is driving me insane that appeared in both games and is an enjoyment-killer.

Playing as the Axis, I am all set up to execute Sealion...which I did almost unopposed by the Royal Navy, which seemed content to enjoy the summer sunshine off Scapa Flow while I was landing my forces.

Playing as the Allies, same thing happens in the Pacific...about to invade Japan, and the remnants of the IJN are cruising around somewhere in the North.

I don't care WHAT the odds against them would have been. In the first case, this is the very raison d'etre for the Royal Navy's existence. Granted, the Luftwaffe would have made their lives oh so miserable...but you can't tell me England would put up a fight in that situation and leave the Royal Navy out of it.

Same principle for Japan...I don't care what the imbalance of forces, the IJN would have thrown every last thing it had left against an Allied invasion. Whatever the odds.

Someone PLEASE tell me this is going to be patched. It kills the game for me.

Purple, I'm sure this is not what you want to hear, but AI is, and will be in the foreseeable future, pretty useless. I'm not that great a player, but I can beat the AI like a dog on expert. I have been playing since SC1 and could write pages of dumb things that the AI has done. Strategic Command, by the way, is not alone in this regard.

I only use the AI to learn the game and then play multiplayer. Trust me, multiplayer, while not perfect, will be much more fun for you. PM me with your e-mail if you want a game, I would play you.
