Could you please add me to your beta player list?? I would like to see: *An inventory that is easier and less time consuming to use, *Higher screen resolutions and SVGA graphics + maybe zoomable tactical screen *A prone position for my poor troops!! *Audio Speech along the lines of "Arrrrgghh! I`m hit!!!" when a soldier get shot by a gut splattering Plasma gun blast! Instead of "Xavier Harrison has died from fatal injuries" *A really cool ending FMV movie! *Multiplay support would be nice, maybe a possible Strategy game + Tactical Games ie: you can choose some soldiers and equipment and just duke it out in a tactical map of your choice or A full blown Strategy. Aliens vs X-Com Geoscape kinda game. * Variation in MAPS!!! Maybe some kinda terrain improvement. I would really like to see transparent water effects, and maybe when you select troops you get a little pic of their faces. These could change when injuries/ experience have been received. Alot of ideas, and i know you will probably not be able to incorporate all of them in your product but if you include just one of 'em, I am gonna buy it!!!!! --- David-James Potter pott...@globalnet.co.uk Christopher Dudley wrote in message <7f%B1.1023$wN.3...@news.giganews.com>... >Thank you everyone for your enthusiastic responses.
