Dunenewt Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 Mod teams have tried boats, and here's the jist of it: Bug boats cause the game to crawl. The added wter effects, the sheer size of naval units, and all of the new logic needed (esp. for subs) makes it impractical. Although a PT boat or something simple would be nice.Get the Light of Five Stars mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razorox Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 I already got my copy preordered... gonna have tons of new units and maps and i lvoe the new generals idea :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollyon Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 Actually the generals idea was meant to be in the original release, hence the name "Generals" but they were too lazy to include it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 I got the demo, played/beat the first china mission then uninstalled it.Graphics were good, although it ran kinda slow on my p4 1.7 ghz 512 ram 32 mb vid card(not a good one). It seemed the same at first with every other RTS game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guusr5644 Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 it didnt work good coz of your vid card.. i have geforce 4 64 MB and i barely can play on high grafix.. tho when i had geforce 2, the game almost didnt move at all..

Some say the game runs great on a 1.2 ghz with gf2 32 mb, and others complain that it hardly runs on a 1.5 ghz system with GF4. And it does run fine in my system, and i only have a t-brid 1,33 with GF4 (Ti4200 though)so strangely, it differs greatly per computer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
