Questions on Game

Time of Fury spans the whole war in Europe and gives players the opportunity to control all types of units, ground, air and naval. Not only that, each player will be able to pick a single country or selection of countries and fight his way against either the AI or in multiplayer in hotseat or Play by E-Mail. This innovative multiplayer feature will give player the chance to fight bigger scenarios against many opponents, giving the game a strategic angle that has no equal in the market. The game uses Slitherine’s revolutionary PBEM++ server system.

Questions on Game

Post by demyansk »

I don't have either Time of Wrath or the new title Fury. Is the Time of Fury game an enhancement of the Wrath game?

Also, if you purchase Fury would you play Time of Wrath anymore?

I have played SC Global Conflict, SCWW2,SCww1 and was wondering if the games are similar?

I believe Time Of Fury is an improved version with the discount being given to ToW owners and as such there would be no reason to go back.

As far as SC, I'm no expert on the subject but it would appear that while both games cover the events during WW2, I think the scale is slightly smaller in ToF(which should account for more tactical options) and that ToF is more refined and polished as far as graphics go. Check out the AAR's just if you do so to see the many display options.

In short I would assume that if you enjoy SC and games of that scale you should check this game out also. I just bought it myself and so far am pleased I did.

Hope that helped a bit.

I bought ToW a couple of weeks ago because it works on my netbook but otherwise, i wouldn't see the point to buy it (ToW) as Time of Fury is a greatly improved version. I can't compare with SC as i haven't played any.

Just my opinion, the Sc games are so much better. Wasteland is good at making new games, but not so hot on fixing them after release. Their poorly written manuals leave important game information completely out. I got burned twice by wasteland, I'll pass on this one.

I think you might be making a mistake to pass this one up...at the very least sit tight for now and see if your concerns are warranted by checking the boards...who knows, a month or two from now, you might be moved to try it afterall..[8D]

I guess vonRocko had a bad experience, but I'd like to say that I have found Wastelands to be responsive to customer requests and problem reports, with patches and upgrades, repeatedly. On a scale of 10, I give Wastelands a 8 for fixing problems, and rather quickly.

My question: what does "Eastern and Western" mean exactly? Ie, is North Africa, the Levant, Persia, etc covered?

The Levant would be Palestine, Lebanon and the part of the Med eastern Coast.

I have a question -- is it possible to change the interface sounds?  (clicks when pressing buttons etc.)  They're just... so unappealing, like a typewriter or something.  Something more like the softer sounds from War in the East would drastically improve the play experience.

It would also be nice if the windowed mode would scale up to my monitor's resolution automatically, as War in the East does, so I can just maximize the window rather than have an strip of desktop along the bottom because the game doesn't apparently work with 1900x1200.

By your answer not a very good comedian, [;)] still have not heard an answer on the bombardment issue from Doom. Can I get some of your influence [&o] with Doom and help from him on that one. People might still like to play SOP but maybe not, as a real patch is still needed.
