Its a great game,captures everything about the original,i was a big player on the atari ST and amiga version cause i had both

Only thing is vehicles in auto pilot is a bit iffy,sometimes they find there mark and sometimes they dont so u you ned up driving them manually,on the official forums the devs are saying there working on patch,it still dot detract from me playing though,ive been playing it all weekend,this combined with the new xcom is all i need and has totally killed off al interest in borderlands 2.

Played the demo of this tonight (avail on steam) and it's quite a good game. Don't think it is worth £32, so i'll wait for it to become available in the steam sales.

Is this game worth buying for £15.99 in the steam sale ?

PS.....I haven't got time to download & play the demo before the steam 50% off deal runs out

Carrier Command: Gaea Mission anygood ?

50% off in steam sale.

Downloading the demo now but what do you all think of this game?

And can you play as infantry if it even has infantry units ?

Thanks

No infantry units - except in the single player where its kinda been shoe-horned into the "story".

Its a good game however.

I would suggest you visit the forums.

The path finding / AI is borked which pretty much means the game is broken.

Its on my wish list but not buying in this state.

5.9 on metacritic says no

GothicGhost · 24 Dec 2012 at 15:34

Cheers.

Am still so tempted to buy this game even with it having loads of low review scores..

Remembers playing the original version many many years ago

imo the game doesn't have enough depth to warrant the price atm

I get a feeling this game is going to hit bargain basement in the near future.

I quite enjoyed it. However it's not everyones cup of tea. I was such a big fan of the original that I really, really wanted to like this. I think if you take it for what it is and don't expect too much polish in some areas then it is a pretty good update of the original, apart from the annoying FPS shooter sections. Patching it helps a bit with a few issues such as the Walrus pathfinding and waypoint issues but it still isn't perfect. But then what game is?.

I think the upshot is if you enjoyed the original and you want to enjoy this or are curious as to how it plays compared to the orginal then it's a purchase which will be worth it. If you are approaching it from the 'never played the original' and are a brand new gamer to it then don't expect wonders, however it still is a fairly good and enjoyable game.

Bought this for €3.50 on the Bohemia website, and I have to say I'm really enjoying it so far. Be sure to get the 1.07 Beta patch if you take the plunge though.
