Don't get me wrong I really enjoy playing Anthelion (presently battling away on mission 15 kamikaze ship).
However I do have some suggestions that I'd luv to see included (I'm aware some of the following suggestions are definitely 'Wish List' stuff - well Santa is due soon
);
A stronger tighter storyline: In so much as how corny!?!, a pirate who seems to originate from the south west of England (e.g. Devon/Cornwall) in the 31st Century (Argh! yah deck swab ye! do Polly be wantin a cracker then, argh!) Did someone overload on Pirates of the Caribbean or what!
.
Improved cut scenes: Not a wodge load of animation, but maybe some lip synching and static when receiving transmissions.
The cut scenes do detract from Anthelion slightly as it is a VERY visual game, it's a shame to not have better rendered cut scenes.
Mission challenges - Add-ons; The missions are GREAT, but I think the infiltration 'battle scene' could have been expanded upon. The first beta's data retrieval and then subsequent missions were BRILLIANT (hopefully it can be resurrected). The result of Razors actions could have lead to a spin off story arc in it's own right, e.g. search and Destroy with extreme predjudice.
Communication; If your gonna include e-mail as a form of communication, how about including it as a sub game e.g. hack into a system or locate information/data via e-mail.
Humour; Maybe I'm sad (don't feel that you have to agree!!
) and maybe I shouldn't play so many games. But the humour bypassed me and left me cold. Here I am doing my all to save humanity and the pirate chief is taking the p*ss
, personally I'd stick the parrot up his ar*e
.
Only an idea; A cut scene of a ship docking with a space station (even a static one) would really spice things up and add to the 'feel of the game'.
Boys and their toys; You can never have to many shooty thingies! so greater variety of weapons upgrades e.g. the EMP gun had some specific uses and was utilised really well, how about different grades of laser (maybe even a sniper version for assassination with only one or two shots, but from over 5km+ distance away
). or big busty bertha bombs that wipe out EVRYTHING in the immediate vicinity, this would also obviously require an engine upgrade (to escape the blast area) or shields upgrade (you know why!)
.
Well I guess that's enough for now.... gotta go my girl friends taking the P*ss 'cause I not only play games but also try to contribute on the forums - How sad am I!!
