Why no demo?
Why no demo?
(I rarely if ever see Matrix Games with demos.)
I'm really interested in buying ToW and just stumbled on it. I've been looking for a game like this since I got tired of SC (SC2 didn't do it for me).
I'm also extremely conservative and leery of buying new games that I can't at least get a feel for before I play. Right now I'm waiting on the slew of reviews I expect to be released on this game before I'll really consider buying it, but if Matrix Games would let me give the game a try with a Demo I'd be much more likely to buy it sooner.

please pardon me for asking stupid questions, but I do not know what you mean. [&:] (I am not a native English speaker). Do you want me to change my reply to Arsan? (It was only a joke, we know us from another forum.) Or do you referring to the link in my signature?

RE: Why no demo?
Many thanks for letting me know. Actually, the "No quote..." line is in my signature for so long (in other forums), that I did not even think about that David could refer to it. [:(] Of course I will change it.ORIGINAL: willgamer

I've been at *shhhh* the other place *shhh* as well, but there wasn't much to do lately. And yes, I will have to change my signature and all because I wanted say hello to you. Guess who to blame? [:@]ORIGINAL: Arsan

Without trying the mechanics, I really can't weigh in with the benefits of 7 years of SC development, much of this ground has already been covered.
RE: Why no demo?
Well, SC is more polished at this point in time... but this game has a much different feel than SC, less random research, ability to attack from more than one hex, all countries playable make it rather appealing even after 1000 sc gamesORIGINAL: SeaMonkey

RE: Why no demo?
No doubt I can tell it is a different approach to the European theater, but it seems lacking in the air-naval model. There are plenty of custom campaigns from SC basis, much like TOAW since it has a similar editor. Not to mention SC's excellent PT and Nupremal & Big Als world campaigns, but I do see potential here, I'm just wondering if its worthy of the effort. I don't know how much dedication these wasteland guys have as I'm well aware of Hubert Cater's.
