First Impressions - First 30 minutes
Posted: Fri May 31, 2013 11:35 pm
1. Installation was very easy and fast. I like the autoupdate feature.
2. Read the readme file. Where is the manual? Checked the installation folder. No manual? Clicked on the link to the Pandora site. Still no obvious manual. Spent 10 minutes looking around. Still cannot find a manual. This is a waste of my time. The manual should have installed with the game, or at least have included an obvious link.
3. Launched the game. Easy and fast to launch. Splash screen was beautiful. I don't like that I cannot clink to advance the starting sequence. Dialogs do not default to ENTER being the same as OK.
4. Picked a starting faction, easy enough.
5. Trying to move units. Very frustrating! Keypad does nothing! Arrow keys do nothing! Mouse does nothing! I guess I will have to keep searching for a manual before I can make my very first move!
This beta test is not off to a very good start, and it is mostly because the manual was not installed with the game!!!
