Re: Comparison to War in The Pacific - AE






Yeah, WiTP can be very compelling game in terms of the day-to-day action. But the glacial pace of the overall war can grind you down after a while. WPP does move at a much more brisk pace.


I couldn't agree with you more.

Thanks for all the help on this. Like I've mentioned above, I will ...

Warplan Games

I asked over in the Warplan forum about the Pacific vs compared to AE.

I did get quite a few good responses.

I was just curious from this crowd if anyone has played it, and how they would compare it back to AE?

Like I mentioned over there, I have a love hate with AE and the giant micromanagement ...

Re: Comparison to War in The Pacific - AE


I will say Europe is better ONLY due to it being out longer and has had more players and more time to work out oddities / issues.

I enjoy WPP a lot and play it more than I do WPE...

WPE does not have "hidden" ships which basically means the German fleet can't hide and that removes a lot of fun ...

Re: Comparison to War in The Pacific - AE



A time sink is a good way to put it. I will always play it when the time permits, but it is very time consuming - I agree. I do think scaling things down will be good in the long run, and I will like it a lot more. It is disappointing to play the game for YEARS, and still be in late 42' early 43 ...

Re: Comparison to War in The Pacific - AE


WPP sold about 40% as much as WPE. It's expected as players are not as interested in the Pacific as they are Europe.


Ok - thank you for that info.

I will probably get both to be honest.

I did get WIF when it came out as well. Last I knew there still wasn't any multiplayer. I love the map ...

Re: Comparison to War in The Pacific - AE


I only say WP Europe has the edge on WPP purely because I'm from the UK and can just about remember the elder relatives who were in the thick of it - the Desert War, Italy, Arctic convoys, Pedestal, and even in the fire brigade at home etc.
Both games have a subtle atmosphere difference, with ...

Re: Comparison to War in The Pacific - AE



Could you guys/gals let me know more about this game compared to WiTPAE?


You can finish this game in under a YEAR! :mrgreen: I'm very fond of WiTPAE, but it is a massive time-sink.

They are very different games. Scaling down took some time for me. Obviously you're not going to have every AA ...

If you have time for watching youtube videos, Strategy Gaming Dojo created a Let's Play series, he has also played a lot WitP-AE and made some comparisons comments here and there.

Re: Comparison to War in The Pacific - AE


Hi,
I bought WitPAE when it was on offer but I gave up on it very quickly - far too much intricate, overwhelming and irrelevant micro detail. Conversely, both Warplan games are intuitive and offer and huge amount of gametime. Plenty of stuff plays out in the background without you needing to ...

Comparison to War in The Pacific - AE

I realize this may not be easy to answer, but I have put a lot of hours into WiTPAE.

That game can be overwhelming at times. I have a love hate with it, but for the most part, I play it regularly.

Could you guys/gals let me know more about this game compared to WiTPAE?

Thanks
