"I am at a loss as to how he arrived at this conclusion. "big" enough? "If there is one single area this game nails its the immesne scale of Planets to bases to ships to you." "I also totally disagree that the graphics in te last Wing Commander game look better than this. Do all reviewers have 20/100 vision these days?" I actually loaded up the Last Wing Commander game before writing the review to base my comparison. Wing Commander Prophecy did IMHO look better, and more impressive. "I personally find it enjoyable to an extent, but it does get lonely out there.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WTF???? Then why am I being deluged by Gammulan Assasins and Military on Stormcarriers? And me in my Sunflash as a merc. Which star system was he in, the boonies?"
My point was that in a game as massive as this, multiplayer is sorely missed. That particular quote was setting up the next sentence. "umm ok the graphics thing is being beaten to death. and besides when the new upgrade comes out itll "pretty up" the graphics." I understand that the graphics thing has been beaten to death, but I can't base a review on what others have said. It would be difficult for me to say "Let's skip the graphics issue, since it's been written about" As for the upgrade, I have already told Derek that I will REVISE the review once the multiplayer patch has been properly implemented. As I said, if the multiplayer patch is properly implemented the game will receive 10 more points. "theres a doc on the cd that walks you thru the different tutorials and instant action scenarios" That's just poor organization then, don't you agree? There are bits of information everywhere, and donÔÇÖt give the learning a sense of uniformity. " i shall pass one word along that has been beaten into my brain... RTFM "" Yes, I read the manual and did point out that it was thorough. As I said in the review, the game has a steep learning curve, but so do other simulations like the Jane's series, Comanche series, and MS Flight Simulator series... yet they all have half-decent tutorials.
