Reviews for "Shadez2: Battle for Earth"

awesome game, but shame of the optional items

The game is awesome. It's complete, greatly detailed and very well made. But unfortunately, to access all features of the game (such as being able to build some units), you have to pay extra, either per unit or in a bundle.

why should i pay for your game over anyone elses

it was allright but stop asking me to pay cause i wont im not so stupid that im ginna pay money to play a fucking game like this when i could just go buy red alert or somthing much better

u r right

Bau is right, paying for a good game i mean plz!dont make that

Could be better, not enough info on everything!!

Partial Content accessible from NG lose you a point straight away.

Its kind of fun, units behave in interesting ways, its fast paced and doesnt lag.
But.. i find it tiresome.

The interface doesnt work very well (still had to do some trial-and-error to figure out some stuff.. like how to make soldier enter a 'copter.. no, i was doing guesswork ALL THE TIME), The tutorial didnt help at all, it gives free XP.

Upgrading our stuff should show what is getting changed.. i hate having to guess for info i should have acess to at all time.

The linear map favors "steamroller" tactics, turtle up then move the bulldozers foward.

The minimap is useless. It doesnt show anything.... Oh wait, it needs the radar first. But still it should show AT LEAST the terrain on it.

How do i unselect stuff? ESC work but its a out-of-the-way button. Make it space bar or something.

The linear buuilding method makes it really hard and clumsy to setup defenses a bit farther away.. since all your stuff have to be close to the main base... and said bases are getting so long its getting ridiculous.

Killing a unit prevent its ammo from reach its target.

Light tanks should be able to target air units, so far, only rocket troopers, artillery, missile turrets and appaches can do so.

Spent XP cannot be gotten back; i believed that turrets would be a nice investment, but since i cant deploy them anywhere usefull; they suck. And i cant take back the xp spent on them, even if its not that much.

The ennemy doesnt have ressource management; it CANT run out of cash. Attack hard and fast when you are ready. With overwhelming forces.

Radar eats energy like hell. Its necessary for a billion things. It makes basic stuff appear on the minimap.

ORE DRILLS; give you 50$ every second, at base level. At max level they also eat energy like mad. A full, fully upgraded Nuclear plant. I think they harvest ressouce near them, they dont produce free money.

Waypoint: Select a unit in a building, create it, while it still selected click somewhere on teh play area, a line should appear. Its a waypoint.

Blackhawks have a more range than the Appache! And they are cheaper! But (for some reason) they cant fire on air units. Appaches are very, VERY fragile. IMHO appaches should have armor and long-range misilles, BH have machine guns.

The Ennemy, however, most of the time doesnt have this problem; many of his units can target all... why cant we? Just make them less effective. My basic marines dont even fire back at Air units that are 5 inches from their face. How does that makes any sense?

Transport 'choppas, once, never wanted me to land the last few civilians i had taken on board. They simply never allowed me to land at all, when i had landed at that spot a few minutes earlier with the first batch of civs! It happened in the mission; the end of life.

In another mission, one bridge too far, the CPU could rebuild faster than what i could destroy it!! Even with a massive force! WTF?! I had to press foward, never stopping for long, to destroy his main building. And then, turn back and (again) destroy the base that poped right behind me in a few seconds!

All in all, its a decent game with a lot of rough edges, and leave way too much of the gameplay "in the dark", leaving us doing trial-and-error to figure things out we should know right at the beggining.

too restricted

its good and has some good options but you get restricted from most of the game. no one wants to play a game that they have to pay 4 times just to get halfway through.
