This makes me very happy!
I am just so happy that someone is updating my most favorite pass-time game of all time. This is a "prologue" which is a new word for me in gaming, but I guess it means it is early days. As a true fan of the original game I both love and hate the 3D graphics equally, and cannot make up my mind. The fact that it seems the developers are trying to stay as true to the original game mechanics as possible will probably sell me on the 3D in the end. That being said, here is what I could not live with in this prologue: The world map is an insult to the rest of the game. Just list all available cities in the iPanel and let me switch them on/off. I really don't care much to see where they are on the map. I have 3 monitors and a TV connected. When the game loads my other monitors start to flash white for a moment instead of nicely fading in the next desktop background. This used to happen long ago with older 3D games. What makes it weird is that the Desperados III Demo also uses the Unreal engine, but I have no such issues in that demo. You can rotate buildings, but there is no map rotation in this prologue. I certainly hope the final game will have map rotation. Even holding my mouse in the center of a grid block does not stop the building I am trying to place from jumping around between nearby blocks constantly. This makes placing buildings an absolute nightmare. The game hogs resources and it feels like you are dragging buildings to where you want to place them. Instead of staying with my cursor building outlines hang back and then rush to the cursor only to find it is not even there anymore. Several bugs like not being able to delete some buildings once placed, and granaries that stop giving out wares when you set them to only collect one resource to the maximum. Updating this game (even under a new name) is a noble act that is worthy of my respect. The negatives listed here are merely an attempt to make the end result amazing as my score reflects.
Hilft dir das weiter?
