I enjoy the game, as something I can load up when I got time to kill it's perfect, but I think a game like this would be perfect for monthly or every other month updates. Even if it's just one or two events, just adding more would greatly improve the game. Also when I said high score table I meant something you can upload scores thru the game and compare scores with other players.

Hrm... As it is the game is most fun at the small and medium map sizes in my opinion. You can increase the map size in a mod if you want, but it just gets tedious after a while. I don't like tedious, so I'm not going to make anything intentionally so...

I can understand the sentiment about the game being long -- but from a different angle. In a way, I think it is complimentary. There's great stuff in WW and some folks just don't want the game to end. I personally have found WW much (much!) better than SAIS and like everything the game has to offer. There's really not much that I would want to fundamentally change. Besides, the mods that have come out recently have been astounding and offer extra variety for those times when I want something just a little different.

Good work!

I think the problem might be on my end. I really enjoy the space epic games. Like nova and Star control 2, so when I play a game like that, I like to play for the long haul.

Every review I've read for WW has made it very clear that it's designed so you can play an entire game in a few minutes. If you expected more than that it's your fault, not the developers.

Actually, the most encouraging thing about this whole thread is the fact the game rep actually took the time to respond in detail to the original poster's concerns. You just don't see that every day. While I too wish for a longer game experience, the high level of polish on the game, the excellent support, and the active community all keep me from regretting my purchase.
