My Progress to Date
Posted: Wed Jan 01, 2014 11:19 pm
I really commend Steve for releasing the game now. It does have a lot of small bugs and I understand that Netplay is a nightmare but I am really enjoying going through a solitaire Global War. I am making a lot of mistakes but every time I reload the game I look at it as joining a war already in progress without me, regardless of wqhat mistakes I may have made in previous turns.
Other than the bugs that are creeping up the following items are high on my list:
1. Continue to simplify the convoy and production planning. The first patch in December resolved some issues but it needs to be much more intuitive. Give ME more control over what goes where and let the computer tell me only if I am not fulfilling trade agreements.
2. I still don't see a Japanese BP going to the US. Does Japan have to save it first? I have not been saving it and no BP is being sent and Japan is not being punished in any way.
3. Please let me destroy ONE oil point if I am overstacked. Don't force me to destroy them all!
4. I occasionally am having to destroy a Japanese air unit that it tells me is overstacked at the end of the turn. Shouldn't I get a warning before I end a phase overstacked?
5. Fix supply problems in North Africa.
6. Can we have the computer set ALL convoys by default to sentry after each phase except those that I manually change in the "Stay at Sea" phase? I know that I should check every convoy before this phase but its disasterous to miss a 10 point convoy underneath another unit that has accidentally been removed from sentry.
