improvements

Post by calcwerc »

What a wonderful game.
Still a few things I would really like to see improved:
a) replay of turn more than once should be possible. Sometimes I get distracted, and then you can not check it again: frustrating
b) why the limitations on chats between players? No real discussion of the game is possible, which is unfortunate in PBEM
c) a pop-up of what influences war readiness of US, Italy, USSR etc. The very best players have an advantage because they studied the scripts, too many beginners and intermediate players have problems with competing because of this. It should be much easier to see this information ingame. For instance it would be great if you get a pop up with this information when you click the capital (or some other spot on the map)
d) I would also like an ingame information about all bonus units where you quickly can check out stuff like that Japan get free medium bomber when they take Solomons etc. It takes so many games to learn this stuff

I am aware that the strategy guide covers c) and d) to some extent, but would like to have this information ingame in a clearer form

For sure A, especially for the long replays, but want to examine one key attack area.
For sure B, would seem really easy to program.

As for C, after you know how it works, no longer needed. Very true, that those how study/read/discuss the test every angle are better players.
As for D, I forget stuff all the time. Top players only play a game or two at once, and analyze every piece. They don't click & move, unless don't their repeat early moves.

I'd add:

e) Have an entire game replay mode w/o Fog of War (toggle), so you could see turns after the game is over.

Conclusion: To better one's game there is a learning curve. The Top players are at a far higher level with striking power.
