A big thumbs up and a small complaint
Posted: Mon May 24, 2021 5:38 pm
First off, I want to say how much I love your products and how refreshing it is in this day and age of constantly having less customer support and less contact with developpers in general to have the very makers of the games take their time to excange with the players on trougleshooting issues and what not.
Do take into consideration this is coming from a guy whom, untill last year, had not bought a computer game since 2004 (and a computer since 2001). Coming back into computer gaming, I planned on playing all those paradox interactive games I'd always wanted to try (europa and victoria notably). But when I discovered fields of glory II, my plans changed and I was delighted to discover all your other products...admitebly I don't have enough free time to play anything else then foge and fogII but still...A great big kudos to you sirs.
But, I have a small complaint. You see, one of the things me and my wife like to do with our free time is play grand-scale strategy games in hotseat mode, and that wheighted in the balance of choosing between foge and paradox's new antiquity title...but the fact that you have to be connected to internet and the load on our limited bandwith is quite problematic (also the fact you can't export the battles to fogII...but I guess that's a complicated problem). So yeah, wanted to voice the complaint of not being able to have hotseat offline for Foge, which quickly made sure we had to go back to civ4 (a title which it seems we will be playing 'till our eyes give up on us for lack of an alternative).
Again, a big thumbs up for your work and the contact you maintain with the player base, you gentlemen astound me.
