Hi all,

I just bought the game, played it for a few hours and really like it. Was really fortunate tonight to stumble over it, because I have not heard about it before.

The only thing what bothers me is the fast animations, especially when the AI is moving. Is there a way to turn down the speed?

Appreciate any idea.

Best regards,

Michèl

It's not really possible to do, as it feeds into a lot of the game logic, and so would break multiplayer, as well as some of the choreography of shooting, retreating, etc.

I guess we could add a global slowdown?

Having said that, IIRC the AI has a special speedup, designed to stop their turns being too boring to wait through, I will look into whether we could make that a toggle.

Cheers

Thanks for your answer Pip!

I appreciate the idea behind the faster animations to prevent them to become boring, however, sometimes there is no chance to enjoy them, because they are so fast.

As I said before I only played a few hours (the desert campaign), but in the missions with air support the planes are rushing so fast that`s it`s hard to see them. And, since you modelled them, why shouldn`t we see them?

What I like very much is that you included a camera movement when two units engaging each other, seeing the firing unit at first and then moving over two the unit which is engaged. That`s nicely done. There are too many games which neglect that and if you haven`t zoomed out far enough you miss everything.

Thanks again and best regards,

Michèl

I would LOVE a global slowdown. I think the game is way too fast as well. I think turn-based gamers don't mind "boring" turns to begin with.

global slowdown *option* gets my vote, as long as it doesn't affect zoom/pan/scroll speeds.

cheers

Is there any possibility to NOT having to wait ages when you get announcements on the screen (reinforcements have arrived for example).
I would like to be able to click this away...

Love the game though
