Ok.... I realize that I am new to BCM ect ect ect...
I have a few things to say on about the issue of flaming, bad reviews ect.
1. My friend Tim recommended me to BCM about a month or so ago saying that it was "like starcraft but extreamly more advanced" so 10 or so of my buddies and I got it and had a hard time learning it but we liked it none-the-less
(1 thing about the game I like is the buying everything you need for your ship and crew- anyone who has ever played X-com would realize that this expands and makes the play more challenging... not inhibit it like one certain flame/review said)
2. Try finding ANY game besides EQ or UO that have that big of a 3d playing field and options, models ect
3. We did think that the game would rule on a LAN but we were not really disapointed because the game offered so much entertainment as it is.
That my friends, is what ANYONE who has accually looked at the content and appreciates in-depth games would say (like me)
And accually I used to build ship models from Lightwave, Bryce5, 3dSMax ect and I know how hard it is... plus implementing them into a game via Blender was hard enough (I can almost bet money that another program was used for that though) Game playing is fun and is about to be part of my life because I am about to get out of this stupid major (Computer Science Tech.... Networking, troubleshooting and such) and goto UT Dallas where I can get a M.A. in Game Programming and interactive arts (Creator of quake and doom teaches there)
but i just went off subject..
So BCM is a great game, I am getting BCMG also and the BC after that, and the one after that, ect.
And anyone who says that BCM is a bad game is just gaming illerterate
