Default Re: Air Assault Task Force BETA DEMO

Greetings,

Having played the demo I just thought I'd share a few thoughts:

The move to satellite imagery for the maps is brilliant! Much better than what I've seen before. One suggestion though, please can we have a ground elevation readout so you can trace a path across a map and see what the ground is doing beneath the cursor (I know, if I could read maps better I would know the answer . . . .).

The new orders interface and 'select unit-select order' approach works really well. I especially like the '!' button to issue individual missions to units - very user-friendly.


One problem I have though is that when the shooting starts and I get the blood-curdling screams I don't always know who's getting hit, one of my units or the enemy?

Finally, when reading the OPORD screen I couldn't scroll with the mouse wheel. Don't know if that's a problem with my machine or the demo, I must confess.

Keep up the good work and thanks for reading!

RBG
