Anyone playing empire at war?

Anyone playing empire at war?

Passing time for galciv 2 to be released, has anyone been playing star wars empire at war?
If so how do you find the game to be?

I know that its not meant to be a sequel to rebellion/supremacy, but I can't help feeling that the depth of supremacy makes it a better starwars strategy game.

Empire at war is still good for a short game but I'm getting tempted to start a game of rebellion instead to get that star wars gaming fix. (Though I've read that the AI is very weak..)

I wanted to ask opinions on this in the EAW forums but I fear that anyone who offers any negative comment about the game gets their head bitten off and in the ensuing argument the whole point is lost.

So.. anyone have an opinion on empire at war?

Played it for a few days, wasnt to happy with it. Kinf of like the other rts game from starwars - clone something was the expansion. Played that until i lost my cd's in a move awhile ago :/ Empire at war was nice, had a lot of features, but i didnt like the idea of only being able to use a few units at a time :/ But is a good game.

dont like the ground battle but loved the space battle, should be what GALCIV2 be in space..

plus EAW is good because its design for the modders in mind, so im waiting for them to mod and add new ships and heroes like the super class star destroyer etc etc

In its current state it is somewhat flawed, but the true potential for EAW is through modding and TC's. Though other then this it is still a decent game.


Like Half-life 2

The AI for auto-resolving is especially terrible; I've taken on hordes of enemies with just a handful of troops on my own, while the computer will grind through half my army if I feel like skipping a battle.
