First impressions: Campaign: The first missions are set so you can't decide what to do first. But this hopefully changes during the campaign. Sound: Great. But the german voices are not that good. Especially Vaders voice sucks. Multiplayer: Did a few games versus the AI. Even on easy it has good strategies (harassing your mines) and really keeps you busy. An average game took about 15 Minutes (on easy) Misc: Screenshots key does not work. Damn! *edit* If I get this right (as I think) there are two single player campaign modes. There is one which is very strict and is a sequence of missions (You cannot attack any planet but only those which are "unlocked" during the missions.) The other one is the Galactic Campaign versus the AI but there are no missions (like stealing the X-Wing) Oh, and please keep any info "Top Secret" until the release day because nobody is allowed to post info before the release but I think this is not really something new. This is more in case of screenshits/reviews.
Okay I have the game! Activision send it to me and other webmasters of EaW fansites. German Collectors Edition. I made photos with my digital camera but I cant find my data cable so I will post screenshots later on *UPDATE* http://images.pexsus.com/show.php?src=games/empireatwar/misc/full/b783000a0e960090f6a4f0709627351f.jpg
Yeah I had the same problem too when I was around that age but my shool decrease really sucked at this time so in the end I'm glad my parents made that decision. Now I'm attending university, have my own appartment and just wish I just would have some more time to play games
I think this would unbalance the game. With anti-starfighter capacity capital ships won't encounter a real counter-unit because they can be used against everything. Of course one gun won't be that effective but then you can leave it because it would just be there for those who complain
Okay, hit me (one more time ) if I'm wrong but until yesterday I thought that shipnaming would be a feature of the game. Now a german page published a short Q&A (six questions) with Activision Germany and there they said that ship naming is not in the game. Who's wrong? Little me? Them? Hopefully them! ??? This really caused some confusion over here... Source: GameCaptain.de
