Strategy Core previews Sins

That review is without a doubt the most informative one I have seen to date. It is also loaded choke full of key marketing points and well intelligently structured. SD/IC should give that reviewer a free final copy for that hallmark review.

I dont say that lightly, because it should also be noted that I almost never find UK based reviews interesting as they are nearly always dry and I simply dont follow the humor aspects to well - it must be a cultural thing methinks...

For example in this particular review the author states:



But he clearly uses the word "superior" twice before. I simply dont follow the social humor element.

Asides from that issue which I will blame on myself for not being British, the review is a rock solid sales pitch as they all should be if the reviewer like the game a lot.

Imagine what he would have said if he only had a gamma build Spartan I love Brith humor the best in the world

he still names a lot of things which are totaly out of date. Especially some of his critical points dont exist any longer.

They do (did) in beta4. It's impossible to write about stuff yet to come (although there is the remark on fleet management). The review should definitely tell the whole story...

Anyway, writting a preview and trying to add every bit of info the devs let out in the forums (especially in a forum like this one, where devs communicate with fans a lot) is a pain. And you never know what is really going to happen in the final build.

I hope flanking becomes a factor.....

This would also demand making gravity wells bigger. And adding more tactical terrain. But yeah, I hope so, too.

You might already know this but you can move a far distance out from the blue circle that indicates the gravity well. This allowed us to expand the size of the gravity well quite a bit from the earlier betas.

Nice preview!
