lack of units in skirmish

[Nokturnal]

Wow i'd hate to make a game for some of you people. Such a hard group to please.
Put in all the units and some will cry it's not historically accurate, don't include them all and others cry they haven't got enough options.

This is why they released a demo - Nobody forced you to buy the game without trying it first. You had the option the play the demo first, so if you still went and bought it you have nobody but yourself to blame for being dissapointed.

Sorry, i just find it hard to be sympathetic. I thought it would of been clear that the units would be limited in the skirmish, as they were in the demo - If everything was available what would stop the player from simply buying the best units and winning with minimal effort? Once again, if that had been an option i bet some people would be complaining about it.


Can't please everyone. Just be happy you have skirmish mode at all - Many people were waiting for it since the original MoW(or even back with SOWWII).
They could of simply released an MP only game and avoided all the complaints, and i'd say they are now wishing they did...

I tried the demo, saw it wasn't what i was looking for, and passed on the full version - I'm sure others had enough common sense to do that too.


Perhaps someone with a bit of skill can edit the skirmish missions to unlock the rest of the units. Kane seems to have quite a bit of experience with modifying MoW, but i'm not sure he's got into AS yet.

I was planning to buy the game strictly for the single player skirmish. One of the worst things about MOW was the limitations in vehicles. I never even saw a Panther for example, let alone bieng able to use one. Is there a skirmish map that allows us to use the late-model german tanks? If not I will not buy this game.

The extreme focus on multi-player was a mistake for MOW:AS.

Company of Hero's had a great skirmish game, and i was hoping that MOW:AS would have one that was at least as flexible and accesible.

Apparently not, from the coments I'm reading...

THANKS Nokturnal, I've been messing with the Demo but if I can't find a DISK to buy I don't think I'm going to get it. I love the game btw. Been playing THEATRE OF WAR 2: Kursk 1943. Beautiful game!

Sorry for the off-topic shameless plug!

Ever played any of the other game modes? They could have just put timers on the other units.... You don't even have the game, do not comment again unless you intend to support the company.
