AMAZIN ROCKIN GAME FOR A REAL GAMER WHO KNOWS STRATEGY GAMES

This game in my opinion is the greatest game ever produced by Lucasarts in its history. This game brings real Star Wars conflict into your hands. One downside in the game is the camera, but I addapted to that very quickly. The first training missions will always help. The game has beautiful graphics, amazing landscapes and plenty of new units. Some more cool things are the following camera which allows you to move into combat more easily. I really suggest you buy this game... Unless your a newbie at REAL time strategy.

This game is not so bad as others place it to be. If youre willing to be explorative with games, this game allows for more than the usual RTS.If you are a graphics junkie, dont bother, but if youre looking for a solid RTS, this is pretty fun with its new concepts. Turn the music off though. The game has new concepts like instead of units popping out of nowhere, they are sent to you via shuttles and such. The SFX are cool. The game doesnt slow machines down at all, at least in my case (PIII550 w/Voodoo33000D) If you are a fan youll absolutely love it. Just to be sure though you might want to pick up the demo it cant hurt.

Best Yet not a good Bet

I like many others waited patiently for SWFC, only to find a so-so game as the result. Lucasarts has a flare for trying to make a game as hard to play as possible. The game interface is complicated and the learning curve is high, but once mastererd the overall game is enjoyable.

Not worth it.

Lucasarts built up the game like it was going to be this amazing thing, but the result let me down. Terrain and buildings do not have solid properties which allows units to walk through them. This combined with the non-detailed interface adds up to a dissapointment.

A Devoted Star Wars Fan who Thinks this Game is Terrible

CNET GameCenter gave Force Commander barely 3 starts out of 10. That's one of the worst scores I've seen GameCenter dish out. The game has received near universal bad reviews. I bought Force Commander before it came out on March 20 and played it before I read the reviews, so my opinion is not affected by any reviews: Apart from the Star Wars background, this game has poor entertainment value relative to other RTS games. The camera handling and interface is awful! Look at the screenshots: the interface is a gigantic black box taking up almost a third of the screen. The graphics are blocky and dated--especially the humanoid figures. The AI is substandard (imagine all your units bumping into each other like a pinball machine for several seconds trying to get thru a narrow passage--and there's a lot of narrow passages by the way; meanwhile they're being picked off by enemy units) ....

it is to hard

The game makes you think that you can chose your side in the beginning. YOu can not, you must start as an imperial.

Dissapointing

I am a true Star Wars fan and I collect everything and love all the movies but this was definatley not an enjoyable game. Sadley the gameplay did not come natural, so there was a learning curve. The graphics were behind the times and character movement was horribloe. I even often found AT-ST getting stuck up against a wall and unmoveable - a total frustrating moment. Yes this is Star Wars and yes it is great on that respect. However compare it to any RTS that came out a few years prior to it and you would be still dissapointed. I'm sure Lucasarts will try again soon, hopefully...

slow gameplay, some glitches

I found Star Wars fun at first but its lasting appeal died off fast and the levels and gameplay were very slow. There were a couple annoying gltches, including a menu glitch which made it impossible to read the menu. Finally the graphics are not so good. Not very impressive for a lucas arts game. But if you are a die hard star wars fan it would be a pretty fun game.

Good game, hard to play
