So, I bought the game and I already regret having done so. First, the performance issues: the game runs unbelievably slow. I don't have an high end rig, but what the game offers doesn't justify the low fps I'm getting.
Apart from that the interface is clunky and inadequate. Just the fact that you're not able to form squads is a big design overlook that makes the game so stressful to play (yes, you can form sort of squads by pressing shift+number, but you don't get a general view of your forces, except of the total count, which is totally useless. Tank battles are far from exciting, and it's pretty hard to figure out if a tank is actually firing or not, since you don't even get a useful tracer of the shot. Let's not talk about infantry combat, which is a total mess.
I really used to love 1c, in first place for Il-2 Sturmovik, which gave me years of fun. But I see that lately they totally abandon games they release, support vanishes, and they don't even seem to care to what they customers would like to see implemented in their games.
Speaking of which, I still can't believe that Men of War doesn't have an AI Skirmish mode, a real skirmish mode, not the boring cannon fodder thing you develeped for MoW:AS. Instead of giving us a useless expansion like Red Tide you could have developed the whole thing.
Sorry 1c, but you've lost an(other) affetionate customer.
