Anyone tried this?
I just got it a few days ago, and I'm still not all clear what I think about it
It does have some interesting ideas:
- Your units works in groups, and can transform on the battlefield*
- You need to level the terrain to build on it
- After sending lots of rockets to some terrain, it starts looking bomed
- The maps are very interesting: e.g. one of the MP maps is one huge Pizza
But it has some downsides too:
- There's one structure that exists all over the map, otherwise you wont win**
- It's very fast-paced. I doubt MP games will last more than an hour
- Some of the missions in the campaign are very annoying***
* There's 3 basic units (soldiers, officers, technicians) which can be tranformed into helicopters, rocket launchers, etc
** The power-generator, power-transmitter (Don't remember the ingame name for it)... it has to be built often to generate enough power (power = "gold"), and buildings has to be very close to it to be useable...
These buildings are linked (you see a network of 'power' in the air between those buildings), which can get very annoying when you've got 30+ of those
*** Yesterday I spent an hour trying to finish a mission... The game simply just told me to build a certain building in 4 spots, and defend them with rockets... ok, I got them built, and none of them was never touched, since I had lots of rocket-towers defending them... but apparently you had to defend each of them with the rocket-units, not just rockets...
Today I have played one mission like 10 times, but always with the same result: The enemy can get through my super-defense like if I didn't have any defense in the first place, while even if I attack with more units than them, and they have less defense than me (and worse planned defense also) I can't even manage to get halfway through their land (You have to dig to the center of their land, and they do the same)...
From being on their forum, it sounds a bit like there's one hell of a huge bug in the game...
