Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
67 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I was impressed by the amount of details and information poured into a strategy game, in a time when RTS titles were emphasizing on generic base building mechanics, churning equally generic units.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
41 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Not constricted by time but the points accumulated this is the heaviest of all phases in terms of combat and units brought in.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
40 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics: One really has to mention that this is the greatest scaleable rts engine out there.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
40 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Many people complain about the game being too hard and lack of difficulty options but I think that's where the game really shines.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Voice acting is present in briefings and throughout the missions themselves while the units don’t suffer from repetitive spoken lines, a sin that was more prevalent in past RTS’.
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
3 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
According to the FPS counter I'm only getting around 30-50 FPS but it looks good and runs really smoothly so I'm not noticing a 'low' framerate.
