For a different side. I like it. It's not half bad. It's not what we are used to...but graphically speaking and sound quality...for $19.99 USD...it sure the heck beats the pants off of HPS visually. It's in 3D...[:D][:D]
For the price I paid compared to the price of HPS games, I think it was worth it as something for fun.
But I do plan on encouraging them to implement this design with the old style Talonsoft games.
The reason is, if they make a game like they used to, with the graphics quality of this one. I would stop buying HPS all together.
No offense to the HPS guys, you make great games, but don't get too comfortable with your status, it is easy to fall off the top. With Matrix Games making games now and some other getting into the field with games that cost less than HPS games, I encourage you guys to beef your games up. I know many have said graphics are second to game engine. Well in today's market all of us know if you wanna compete you gotta have both.
I don't mean to be bad mouthing HPS..it's a good company with great people...but when the modders provide the tools for free to make the games better, and when people refuse to buy the games until the mods are out it says something about the games. Why not work with some of these guys to make better game in the release??
I know I will continue to buy the Nappy and EAW, but I refuse to buy anymore ACW games until I see a big change in them, and I know I am not alone.
I think I may be a little strong worded hear and I will take the flak from people, but in all honesty I respect HPS and I am saying this so that they don't go out of business and they don't fall off the charts. Listen to your bases customers...it is business 101.
