World War 2: Time of Wrath

World War 2: Time of Wrath

There are better hex-based strategy games out there. World War 2: Time of Wrath is not bad, but it's just not fun to play. Some (basic) mechanics are not explained and don't make sense. UI and movement feels more like a chore than giving orders. Too many tiny things that come together to ruin the experience.

To powinno być zbanowane na Steam. To kolejne techniczne kupsko, które na start już alertuje, że jekieś certyfikaty są nieaktualne a później się crashuje. Brawo, kolejny rodzimy januszex upychający swoje stare gry na Steam beż żadnego przygotowania. Chvj wam w dvpy Wastelands razem z Konglomeratem łajna!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Très décevant, je regrette mon achat

Many write about poor performance but the game is 2009 what you wanted. Through a lot of problems I was able to run the game and play and naturally I liked the game here without question

[b]Pros[/b] [list] [*] No city management, just war troops [*] Basic diplomacy and major events decisions [*] Intuitive in terrain advantages/disadvantages [*] Easy to wage war, if you have more strength, you win the battle [*] Historically accurate troop skins per country [*] Simplistic UI, doesn't overwhelm first time RTS players [/list] [b]Mixed[/b] [list] [*] No navy management, just ground troops [*] Production points are slow, and far too little for most countries [*] You need to wait out AI's moves, good to see what they do in real time, but boring [*] Follows history, so you know which country will be at war next [/list] [b]Cons[/b] [list] [*] The AI is magically richer than you [*] The point above makes Strategic bombers a moot point [*] The cost of naval assault is prohibitively expensive [*] Majority of countries have zero production of important action points (Diplomacy, Strategic movements, etc) [*] If you agree with a country's surrender, unconquered territory can become any other country's territory [*] If you expand war lines through friendly territory, that territory will belong to the friendly country [*] The AI forgets to repair their ships, making it easy to obliterate them [*] Had a bug once where I had to Alt+F4 the game, lost some progress [/list] [b]Descriptive[/b] I had to modify the game's files to have a game that wasn't a slog fest. Added near infinite amphibious assault points, because else you need to wait like 50 turns to have enough as Germany to invade the UK successfully. Also, if you're any other non-major country, you get no diplomacy, strategic movement and barely any production points. I understand the last one (Historically accurate), but games should cater for playability instead of hardcore historically accuracy. I edited the values on a new game, and the AI went insane, somehow their production points went to negative values, which means infinite, so France was covered in troops lol. Anyway, the game is intuitive and easy to grasp. I like not having to deal with cities, nor the navy (Which has a really weird UX). I dislike not being able to easily use the navy as troops transport, strategic movements, or YOLO amphibious assaults. If one has ships, one should be able to attempt such moves and not be majorly financially blocked (Seriously, I was Germany owning Poland, Netherlands, Belgium and France, and I still had to wait 10 turns to have enough points to get three units into the UK, and then I found out I needed to wait another 10 rounds to get enough money to support them, by that time, they were dead. Absurd) The AI is richer, but vastly dumber, so you can outdo it easily. Just doesn't work if you want to be any smaller country. In the end, it's a good game, cheap and basic. I'd say do try it if you're a fan of this sort of game. I spent two all-nighters during the week on it, so it's clearly better than sleep!
