No effort was spared to model modern warfare realistically, including armor, infantry, helicopters, air support, artillery, electronic warfare, chemical and nuclear weapons.

Getting a defeat if you beat enemy too fast ?

Post by moet »

Hi. I really like this game.

I was though very surprised to get a "decisive loss" in the middle of the first scenario of the Red Hammer campaign. I had destroyed more of 70% of the enemy troops and the scenario ended while there was 4h36min still to play. Because that victory conditions was met, I couldn't progress further to get all the objectives that were no more defended.

Of course, I got all my troops in a quite good conditions at the beginning of the 2nd scenario of the campaign, but I think the game should give a more fair reward for the good performance of a player within a campaign. [:)]

Moet, the sudden death mechanics were a topic of last night's dev call. We are looking at a few options to balance the realism versus game fun aspects. We'll keep you all posted on the resolution of the issue.
OTS is looking forward to Southern Storm getting released!
