There is a setting to increase or decrease the mouse sensitivity in the options menu.

In the beta there was just 9 islands. I think everyone assumed that there would be an option to have a set amount of Islands in the full game, rather than have it locked at 33. I agree it would be a good feature.

Yeah, it took me a while to find as well. One of the buildings in the village has a antennae like spikes on the roof go behind that building and you will see a red button. then drive to the other marker and look for the same spikes have to admit Outpost was a fun Island. Not least of which was the fact that I finally learned how to stop my Walruses getting stuck there :)

I just sent my manta at it. Killing with machine guns is old school! LOL

And yes you can sail your ship from Island to Island if you want. Let me guess, you never tried before enjoying your rant. As for the rest of your rant, I'm sorry but crying about graphics in this amazing looking game is idiotic, and I can understand how multiplayer would have been problematic. As for how brilliant Arma was, Arma had the same problems with vehicle pathfinding that we see in the walruses. Pathfinding is actually a very hard thing to program, and BI in general have a problem with it. I'm not going to dignify your troll post with any more of my time.

Its in the trench closest to where the train exits the area. You run to the center of the trinch and look up at the right wall of the trench. Your reticle shoudl turn into a hand, press F and then the forcefield should shut off.

This is the link to the page where I download the game from https://store.bistudio.com/index.php?page=account.index&option=com_virtuemart There's nothing that identifies me on the link so you have to log in and then go there I expect.

I actually went through the manual looking for that information but there's nothing about the function of the control tower in it.

It does run out of fuel eventually if it has no stockpile island. In the beta I tended to finish up on the Island I was taking then up sticks and head for the Island he was attacking. Even if he had taken it I could take it back easily. Eventually he had no islands left and I chased him around for a bit till he ran out of fuel. You will still move slowly without fuel so all I did was wait for the next Island attack sound and then he was there, dead in the water. Anyway the enemy carrier is supposed to be annoying and difficult to catch. its the end goal after all.

Yeah I've noticed some savegame issues so I'm saving before reaching islands now.

Looking at the way the AI behaves, what its actually doing is creating small waypoints just ahead of itself as it drives along, probably places that are marked as the best terain around it and heads for those waypoints all the time. That explains why it heads backwards as its first waypoint can be behind the direction of travel. There are 3 problems with this approach A) The waypoint can be behind a rock or a wall B) its an extremely shortsighted approach. the best way for the next few meters might not be the best way to get to the destination long term. C) its quite slow as the Walrus is continually decelerating and accelerating. I think suggestions on how to improve that would be welcomed. As for myself, I have to admit I'm loving the campaign. even despite the Walrus behaviour. I'm getting used to it, and it does not take too long to just flip back and turn the thing around. Sometimes reseting the destination will make the walrus pick a different waypoint and get moving. And generally its just one walrus out of 3 that's stuck, the other 2 are moving along fine

Attacking Islands on your network is not necessarily bad as it can break the links in your supply lines and cripple your production. Just saying.

heh. I just had gotten up to outpost and was about to give you an outpost save :P Sadly I'm of to watch some rugby rather than save the universe now :)

I doubt it. Most people downloaded the patch while they were DLing the game. Oh you mean from 1.02? I havent gotten that far yet sorry.

I think it says in the manual that Scout drones are one use only.

Um... you could just use the arrow keys like I do...

Thats a really well spotted piece of info there.

YOu can hack any other hackable building with any walrus. Its just the command center that needs the Hacking module

I havent goten that far yet (Called it a night just as that mission started), but dies the island have a headquarters building you can hack that night give you the Item?

Ok sorry mate :)

Its ALWAYS a good idea to update your drivers when you get a brand new game. Saying "but it worked with another game" is an idiots excuse. Developers always work to the bleeding edge of the chips capabilities, and you never know what new feature has been implemented that the game takes advantage of.

At least the FPS bit was pretty easy so you could get through it pretty fast. Aside from that, and the blah blah Walrus pathfinding, I really enjoyed the couple of Islands I played through today. Looking forward to getting deeper into the campaign tomorrow. Really good game you have here guys. ---------- Post added at 02:05 ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 ---------- That was asked before. Essentially just being able to enter timewarp at will would screw over some physics and other variables and they could not implement it. I recomend you manage yoru Islands a bit though to get the most out of your Islands. A ratio of 500 minerals to 1 production is a good baseline to experiment around. Also build stuff one at a time and then some fuel as the fuel does not use much minerals which will allow them to build up and you can get a head start on the next big build. Otherwise you are literally building at the rate your minerals come in, which is inefficiant

Yes, though they change their look depending on the armor you load on them. And seriously, only having 2 units is not that big of a deal. It allows you to focus on the strategy rather than picking the "best" unit 90% of players will exclusively use because they are the "best" And yeah the FPS was just to get you into the action. It was fun to run around a command center for a bit after playing the beta

Ì honestly think the Walruses would do ok if the they were allowed to rotate in place.

Well all we found on the last one was that it was some kind of disk error/ registry error.
