Time for a new Beta...?

[Time for a new Beta...?]

Got an e-mail from the Bistore to tell me there was a new download with the link in it. Clicked the link and it downloaded and ran Sprocket. Same process as originally.

[Time for a new Beta...?]

still downloading the new Beta file myself but the new file has a V2 on the end. Not sure about a version number in the game. I'll check when the d/l completes.

Just received an e-mail to say a new build is available. so get downloading.

[Gameplay changes planned for final?]

You do realise that, in the original, any island (including defence) could be taken by a single Walrus with 3 missiles in well under 2 minutes. That part I feel is much improved, for me the lack of depth stems from the strategic decisions made by the enemy carrier as to where it goes, what it does. The original had that nearly spot on, on this it needs rewriting.....

I could do it with one Manta and bomb :cool:

[What do you think of the Carrier control method?]

I don't mind the radical menu so much but due to the drop in mouse performance from Windows to the game it makes the entire control system seem sluggish. While Walrus and Manta are nimble enough using the assigned keys all the controls for the carrier seem sluggish and unresponsive.

I know the carrier is suppose to be slow and lumbering but even the menus and radial menu have the feeling of being unresponsive.
