Excuse me but, what the fuck are you talking about, this look great, and even if it had sub par graphics it would matter not because gameplay is where the fun is at. I know MW3 is mainstrean and the best selling game of out times and yet it's a good example because it's graphics are terrible for today's standards yet people play it by the millions worldwide, let's compare that to crysis a game that came out in 2007 yet it kicks MW3's ass in graphics but people still like CoD better.
Quite a dissapointing game really. For a game with graphics like these, I was expecting to be able to usually command an entire batallion in battles, instead, I get just two understrenght platoons, usually. This game has SO MUCH potential, yet so many flaws...
For a game where the squad is the smallest commandable element, a battalion would be a micromanagement nightmare. (Unless your span of control was limited to your direct subordinates)
But then that would be a company-level game. In the US military, the effective span of control is around 5-7 elements. Example: if a game had you commanding a 1980s US pure mech infantry battalion making the smallest player controllable element as platoons would mean that you would have 12 elements to control, not to mention combat support assets! That is not good for a wargame like this.
What's wrong with having to control 12 or more units? I don't mind that at all. What's not good for a wargame like this is the combination of big maps and few units. It's impossible to form a proper defensive line as there will be huge gaps and many weaknesses and the "battles" are more like minor skirmishes than actual battles.
Company of Heroes has about the same amount of units as this game and I don't understand why you're implying that I have an unrealistic impression about battles. Does it seem so ridicilous to you, that in a game which is suppose to be about one of the decive battles of WWII, I expect the battles to be larger scale than a short skirmish between a few squads?
This is simply the most awesome real time wargame-tactical-sim ever. For those who can handle the not-so-intuitive-at-first interface. It's amazingly realistic.. and the AI is really smart. Graphics is OK.. and this a game, which value is certainly not on the surface..
tanks do not pull up side by side to each other and then fire.
it's a projectile. it fires long distance. it's the reason why they stay at long distance to attack. if tanks fought that close they would come with battering rams and saws on them.
@fyrestorme123 well they don't now and they almost never did in WW2 but I advise you to watch some documentaries about the battle of kursk for example when there was simply a pile of tanks and soldiers fighting from close range tanks were 100-200 m from each other even closer so... even though that was not the usual way of fighting it did happen
@stlouie24 That's because a Tiger tears T-34s open like a can of bake beans, even at long range...only thing they could do was smash into them and hope to at least damage the tank, or slow it down.
But that wasn't a Tiger, it was a Panzer iii...so why were they up close tickling each other?
the game is out and it works fine. by the way, i got the black screen for the demo as well... its now on sale for $17 - its a great deal. Not a "grade A" game, but good enough
I take back my last comment. after playing the game more, Ive come to realize the depth and beauty of the game. The AI is top notch, and once you get used to the combat you will then realize how "real" and close it is to real combat. The massive map allow for tru strategy to be used. A few times i cought the AI out in the open thinking Im going to crush it only to be ambushed myself later in the scenario. Combat is quick and nasty. At first glance it might not seem to be much, but its a winner!

That could be easily fixed by making the squads sort of independent units, led by platoon leaders, which in turn are commanded by the player.
