Picked up the expansion yesterday (ACR). Talk about terrible. After all of the issues and pit-falls that BIS has had in the past with Q&A and testing, I'd have thought they would've learned their lesson by now. It's like one major step back to be honest. I say avoid it.
The first thing I noticed on the initial mission (and the rest) were the vast amount of spelling mistakes. This alone doesn't kill my gaming experience, but it certainly will make me pay more attention. If they failed to even properly review their work prior to release, what else could be wrong?
The units, vehicles, and terrain have some of the worst texturing I've seen in a long time. ACR is also fraught with numerous bugs and scripting errors were some missions launch and some don't, were some missions can be completed and others can't.
It's as if they threw this expansion together from the CZ VBS2 components. Shoddy work at best.
Thanks for the heads up. I'm not into Czech stuff but new toys and campaigns are always welcome.
ReplyDeleteNew toys! Looking forward to play around with them. :)

ReplyDeleteHi Bryan,
ReplyDeleteHaven't been able to even take a look at the new maps and units. Is it the missions letting you down?
Cheers,
It's a myriad of issues, mate.

Yeah, I don't know, my expectations were low I guess.
