"Good Game, but has some really annoying enemies"
date: July 6, 2009
I don't think that this version of Stormwinds is a bad game per say, I think it's better than the first two, but there are some really annoying featuers. First off, those flying ships with the armored plate in front of them. For some reason, no matter how many barrier decoys i lay down they still ONLY shoot at my main cannons and blow them up, not to mention as far as I can tell these enemies have no weakpoint, just one area where you do less damage and the main area. Get rid of these guys and don't put them in another stormwinds game... ever.
I don't mind the cannon switching, but when you get to the later levels you are being flooded with enemies and you are so focused on not dieing that you can't effectively switch from one cannon to another. I liked the one idea someone said to have the cannons autopilot but do less damage or so if you aren't controlling them. Or include more cannons and things that fire without you controlling them (like the decoys.)
I completed the first 3 campaigns and I'm now stuck on the one where the enemy attacks with mostly heavy ships, no matter what guns I select I get raped and flooded with a ton of high health, heavily armored enemies to the point of it just being stupid. Even with the extra upgrade points from completing the other campaign first, it isn't much help to win this one.
Decent game, make the next one a bit more user friendly.
