Congratulations

Post by KaDMiO »

Hi all!

I would like to congratulate you on your huge progress!!

One small comment related to graphics: I find them to be quite dark, which makes it difficult to recognize units and to identify buildings. I think that If brighter colours are used, the game will be easier to play and might even attract more players.

To give an example of what I mean, google "Generals" in the image tab and look at the screen captures. You will notice that bright colours make the game more attractive.

I know the graphics are very similar to the original game, but in those days these type of graphics weren't used much.

Keep on like this!

Hmm, "brightness" (or rather "gamma") option could be very useful, really ;)

I feel that the game has a great balance between light and dark. I play it on a variety of computers, and I have not had a problem seeing things in game. did you fiddle with the buttons on the monitor it self? some times they are set very low from the factory.

I think that the dark, dirty, post apocalypse feeling is one of the best parts of the game. Its not glamorous like generals... and I'm not sure anyone that has experienced the campaign thoroughly would want it to be...

Glare type displays make it harder to see, as if you got a lot of dark on the screen, all you see is yourself... or the wall behind you... or the ceiling... or what's going on outside... If you got one, get rid of it and get a "DIN Class 3" anti reflex display or to say it easier: A matte display. ;)

Yep. Glossy screens are a night mare for stuff like that. I had two laptops with them and I try to avoid buying another.
