Hello everybody! I have played Dragon Commander about 2 hours and I wanna tell you about impressions, bugs or just disadvatages
Well in technicall side the game goes without stuttering, lags or freezing but once I`ve crashed when tried to back to main menu.Of course there is almost no content in the game and I didin`t try to skirmish with my hostiles too deep because as LordCrash have already said balancing is INSANE even on Easy Mode I lose my battle for 3 minutes!!!First I thought about my strategy skills problem and about my reaction -to be honest I am bad in strategy!) but later I turned off AI at all and started to explore game mechanic.
As for me graphics is pretty cool but maybe engine needs some polishing I think because is just Early Beta version.
Now about disadvantages for which Beta was supposed to.
1)You can sell last building and then we lose battle it doesn`t have sense!
Introduce the veto to sell the last building because I think we can casually push the "Sell" button and we have Retreat button after all)
2)Fireballs go through some objects -There is no collisions on some objects))
3)You CONSTANTLY should click on the left-mouse-button to shoot fireball
I think this clicking is rather annoying if you wish continuous attack . I suggest to Hold button like Divinity 2 or work in option to choose between Clicking or Holding
4)There is twiched animation of Mortar Turret Shot
5)You cannot see decription of Dragon Skills thus these ones need to check manualy
6)Anti-Air and Anti-ground Turret Does`nt have "Halt" button but you can order it to Halt Fire by keyboard
7)Suggestion about bulding units-Let us build more than five units for a time .Horewer maybe it was done for better balancing I don`t know)
8)Suggestion-Passive Skills(icons I mean) should be rearranged to Statitic Unit window (like
Starcraft) IMHO
9)There is problem with Bomber Balloon when it attacking it`s rockets fly around target and don`t explode or explode but after several minutes!!
10)I cannot move flying units to another islands except Bomber Balloon,Zeppelin and Imp Fighter -On the Winter Islands map at least
11)Armour (ship) cannot upload more than 3 unit!
12)When I`ve played about 1,5 hour and decided to back to main menu,reaction of the game was quite long and then crashed(It`s my only crash)
13)Tutorial Mode doesn`t switch off correctly when I re-launch the game I need to switch off it manually
14)When I move the camera there appear graphic artefacts on the sky.
15)There is no difference between Fullscreen Mode and Fake Fullscreen Mode
16)Hints appear and disappear too quick then hard to read these
17)There is infinite mana
18)When Your units (in my case see ones -Juggernaut) have already destroyed any building they going on to attack this place
19)When you have out of fireballs(there is scale of overheat I don`t want how to say)
In this case you can change type of this to Acid fireball and the scale is reseting
I think is not suppose to be in balancing
Just now I won battle against 2 enemies` AI at insane setting!! with my ally bot in insane AI too
What I want to say I am BAD in strategy but I won the batlle!!! Below I`ll write the main reason
Actually AI is quite stupid, firstly I have a very strong pressing from enemy`s army they literaly intrude like swarm of locust but I used my dragon while my ally captures command post and builds the army .During the battle I didn`t use my own base to recruit or capture anything I`m SERIOUS!! .But I have to say once my ally stuck -It was`nt react to anything though it have quite a LOT of units I defeated another bot and then the last one was stuck of course it defending itself but I won only with my dragon .To be honest it was`nt so easy I died about 15 times))
So this a story
P.S-The voice of David Walgrave in Tutorial warms my heart))!
