One thing i have always longed for is a truely scaleable wargame, where you can be anything from the supreme high commander making all the calls, to a lowly guy-with-a-gun on a battle field fighting off the invading enemy (or invading yourself, of course), or a fighter pilot, a star ship pilot, or whatever, all in first-person view. This looks like a step in that direction, which is most cool.
Some people try to make this game. Look at the Battlecruiser 3000 series. It doesn't play very well.

Yeah, I agree, SE5 should be like SE4 with a gameplay and graphic upgrade, but no more.

SE V should be a lot more than SE IV. Of course more sometimes means less when it comes to game design.

Right now Aaron has a list with over 5,000 suggestion just on this forum alone. God only knows how many he has in his text files at home.

SE IV is a great game, a game that is as popular today as it was nearly 4 years ago when it came out. Not very damn many games can say that now can they?

So SE V will be warmly received by fans, but torn to shreds soon afterward as is the case with all sequals to very popular games.

Our jobs will be to play the game and enjoy it. A job that I do look forward to doing.

i think if you accept that it's not going to be seivg v2 and simply try to play sev on it's own merits, well, AH does have a history of making good games.
