Game Debate review - 85/100!
"...It seems slightly unfair that the game doesn’t get more credit from the gaming community given its incredible detail, meticulous attention to historical realism, stunning graphics and the intensity of the gameplay..."

I've only played a few missions so far but here's what I think of it:

+ Action packed
+ Nice sound effects
+ Well made missions...

- ...But too difficult
- Frustrating
- No multiplayer
- No Skirmish

The campaign is kind of fun, as long as you save often. So since the campaign is the only content of this game, this game is kind of fun. Too bad you guys couldn't atleast bother to include multiplayer.

Too difficult? Well I don't see why, it seems to be just right. Too difficult for you is more like it.

Frustrating? It is a strategy game, it wouldn't be fun if it was easy.

No multiplayer? Why even need it, Red Tide is so good you can replay the missions a thousand times. It wouldn't be a Red Tide if you could play as the Romanians or some other Axis faction.

No Skirmish? Men of War doesn't have it, why should Red Tide? Sure it would be nice to have, but implementing it will take time. If its planned, don't expect it to be out soon.

Just right for you is too difficult for casual gamers like me.

Frustrating? yes, it's frustrating, I've played a lot of strategy games and this is one of the most frustrating.

No multiplayer? Why this game needs it is because it would give it replayability. The missions are good, but you can't replay them forever, unlike multiplayer games, which are even more fun than replaying a SP missions. If the reason not having multiplayer is that the game is called "Red tide", then the name should have been changed.

No skirmish? Yes, men of war doesn't have it, but it should. So should this game. And the fact that MoW didn't have skirmish doesn't mean that Red tide shouldn't either.
