This game was released today, but the beta was available to those who had preordered for some months now. I can tell you that this game has been worth the wait for those who enjoy PC Gaming and especially those who enjoy Wargaming.
1. This is a hybrid and unique RTS game experience. The developer's have been successful in uncannily dropping the player into immersive Civil War scenarios. The game truly makes you feel like you are in command of Civil War units, in very precise historical engagements. You are literally recreating battles that really took place, but now you are able to give orders and see if you could have possibly changed history.
2. The graphics have been improved since the previous Civil War Bull Run release of Jan-2005, which I personally thought were fine, though I am a tactical and strategic oriented gamer. The graphics of Take Command: 2nd Manassas now are of a high definition quality that should satisfy even the most visually oriented player.
3. The game is developed by Mad Minute Games and is being published by Paradox. MMG's last release was top quality at the inital release, and they are extroardinary in their support for those who purchase their games. The developer's are truly a part of the community that supports this game, and you can see that very quickly by visiting their Forum.
4. I think anyone who enjoys PC Games and especially those who enjoy Wargaming will find this game the best possible mix, of strategic, tactical, exciting, and immersive gaming. And the excitement comes from a real continuing buildup based on the decisions you make, not the mindless excitement you see in so many FPS or some other RTS games.
5. And lastly the replayability of MMG's games are simply phenomenal. Based on Civil War Bull Run they have developed an AI that literally keeps you on your toes, months and now moving into years later, and to think that Take Command: 2nd Manassas is an improvement on the AI of Civil War Bull Run just makes it that much better.
