Ground Control (Great Fun)

Played the original Ground control years ago and loved it. I never got my hands on the follow up but now GOG has made that very easy. This game rocks. It still looks lovely and plays even better. If you love good stategy this is a must buy at this price. Thanks GOG.

Does not function.

The game either doesn't launch at all, shows an access violation error or gets stuck on a black screen.

A link twixt GC and World in Conflict...

Ground Control was a ground breaking title with extremely good graphics and great atmosphere, not to mention an unusually scaled and paced game style for the time. It blew my mind and felt extremely futuristic - GC2 didn't quite have the same feeling, though it's an interesting mid-point between GC1 and the incredible World in Conflict. The key selling point of GC1 games was that you can zoom in far enough to see the grain of the desert, or far out enough to overview the entire map. Zooming in super far reveals highly detailed (for the time) models - particularly vehicles - and aids the aforementioned atmosphere greatly. The problem with GC2 is that it goes away from the atmosphere and roleplaying'esque feeling of guiding your units around the field and brings in a resource gathering/reinforcement gameplay model that dilutes the pace of the gameplay. Add to this some bullet sponge'y feeling enemies and in general the game just has less personality and less rewarding missions. You should buy this because it is a fascinating artifact, but if you want the best gameplay this genus of games can provide you sould play the first game, or World in Conflict.

Different but Great!!

I played the first GC and it was great. When I played the GC II i was puzzled by the changes. It was simpler, but got so many new things. There is still no base building, and no resource gathering, but there is a way to order new troops to the battlefield, units have second fire modes. I had fun playing it, so I give 5 stars - it's not like the first GC but in it's own way GC II is a great game, with great story and feel.

Doesn't work for me on Windows 10

I could not get the game to start, even after trying the recommended fixes on the forums and PCGamingWiki.
