It's to bad the last two times I've downloaded it my fucking internet connection died.

First time it got to 54% and then the second time it got to 99%, so I'm not even going to bother.

Meh, it's okay. The animations are nice but the resource gathering needs to be buffed up.

its a nice game, but its just not epic enough. And that takes away from the whole in game experience. However, the home city was a very nice touch, I expect we will be seeing rip offs of it to some extent in many future rts games.

Actaully, the ship combat kicks ass, put the comp on very hard and get into some good ships battles, fire a broadside etc.

[quote="Sergeant_Scrotum":c85da]I tried AOE2 and RON and I found both to be fun, but lost interest very quickly. Its weird all games just suck now.[/quote:c85da]u should try rome total war. Best strategy game ive ever played imho. If they just use that engine, but put it in modern day....that would be a kick ass game. I also found a game called imperial glory quite fun, kinda like Rome TW except in the 1700-1800's.

I tried rome total war but again, soon became bored. I just think il never be impressed bgy a game again any time soon. It feels like I have played everything their is to offer. All these new games are just updates of older games but better looks.
