      Imagine if the people that made Starcraft started with a new blank slate.
      Integrated new ideas and gameplay. Created 3 new factions and a whole new dynamic.
      And weren't shackled by their Publisher.
      What kind of game could they make? I'd love to find out.

    The number one feedback seems to be regarding the graphics and look & feel. Are you going to address that? Are you working on improved graphics (especially the maps)?

    • @jasonesports
      @jasonesports 25 дней назад

      I have to imagine that's something they will want to work on. I will say, map production likely doesn't have the same production funnel that gameplay mechanics and major changes to races would have.
      Definitely would love to see one epic finished map, though, yeah.

      @@GypsumGeneration I love Battle Aces design decisions, and I really don't think it's directly competing with more traditional RTS games. I'll probably play Battles Aces + one of the other major RTS games coming out (maybe Stormgate, maybe one of the others). The problem with Battle Aces is the total lack of flavor. It's soooo bland.

    The game is great and I can't wait to play it again. 25 EUR to play the game 2 weeks earlier + a hero, 3 missions and golden paint for one faction is too much. I hope the 2 weeks earlier access is at least 10 EUR, which I still dislike.
    I will still try the campaign and buy a few cool unit skins or heroes if the price is reasonable (few bucks). If finishing the Vanguard single player story costs me comparable to a new game they can forget it.
    I support this game with all my RTS love gathered, since I playing WC Humans and Orcs when I was 5, but if they get greedy I will just play the free multiplayer modes. It's not even about money, which I have to spare.

    These guys seem very likable and I had really high hopes for this game, taking into account their pedigree. Having said that, this ain't it chief... The art design is so uninspired, the three factions are more or less watered down version of the ones found in Starcraft and what we've seen of the lore and names ("Celestial Armada" "Infernal Host", really?) so far is ultra generic.
