first impressions

[dieter9999]

Hi,

My first impressions of the beta test. My first PC game was in 1995 Panzer Ganeral. And I think PG 1 and PG 2 or PG 3D in Germany were the best strategy games ever. My System E6700 2.66, 4 GB Ram, Nvidia GTX 470. Win 7 64 Bit. 23 Zoll 1920x1080.
Impression 1 min: Menue only a list, the play button is on the left side very little
Impression 60 min: It looks like PG and the feeling is like the old PG. But is this after 16 years good?????

Sound: every tank, airplane and infantry unit should be different sounds in moving and fighting. Now Nebelwerfer and artillery have the same sound!

Units: the planse and tanks look very flat, no ditail the difference between the units are not enough. Whera are weapon SS and so on....

Control: as an old PG player everithing is after 1 min. clear. I dont like to press the right mouse for move and fight, better all with left mouse.

Screen: I play with 1920x1080, the units are to small, and the right sight of the menue is to small. I know what the buttons mean, but there are to small. The info over the units must be bigger.

Map graphics: After 16 years the graphic must be better, The cities, rivers and mountains and landscape looks very simple. If you click on a unit appears too white section. I do not like it, it must be much more transparent. The white rings around the key cities I do not like.

Fight: The annimation of the combat only smoke very simple. Much better would be, if a tank shoots, the tube that goes back, producing a flash of fire. So each unit has its own animation. You do not see in the fight who loses as many points, for example, when a airplane is over a ground unit.

Performance: The turn of the enemies take so long. It needs to be accelerated by clicking on the left mous button.

General: The later tank should have a fire range from 2. It should be a unit infoscreen to rename the units.

After one hour over a season I feel the game a little boring. Please do not misunderstand, there are many good approaches, such as the map with the mouse wheel zoom and so on, but after 16 years should a game be different and a little different harness. I hope you will consider these things to make it nearly perfect.

Can you try playing it at 1650 x 1080?
