Much improved over Direct Action [Posted on 2007-04-10] I really enjoyed Direct Action, except that I found it too short and too easy. High Treason is a welcome expansion pack that adds many more single-player scenarios. Some of the new units are fun too. The best improvement is that they added the ability to look around the battle field and issue orders while the game is paused, which really should have been in the first game too.
Like it [Posted on 2007-07-09] I am new to gaming. I enjoy command and conquer Generals, Zero Hour & Tiberium Wars. I also enjoy Earth 2160, Civilization, Myst, Ghost Recon & M/S Flight Simulator. The little I have played Act of War leaves me feeling I will like it also. I have had several head injuries and am not as quick as I used to be. I can use the mouse and some hot key commands and find I am fine with my selection os games. I cannot do games which require expert keyboarding skills. Hopes this helps.
Act of War: High Treason [Posted on 2007-07-24] Gosh, it took me a few weeks to get this one done. The second part of the Act of War series still had its great gameplay and beautiful wartime graphics but there is something definetly different than the first AoW. This one is WAY harder. There are times when you just begin to build your base and there are already enemy units swarming at your base (this is on standard, mind you). Yet even though that may hold you back from completing the game I still quite enjoyed this. This is a good game to get if you're into RTS style games
Good game good price, great value [Posted on 2007-08-22] I have to say that I am very happy with this game. i like the genre and like the warcraft or C&C style of gameplay. I like this game for what it is and nothing more. It occupied many nights and is still very replayable. I have gone back to it time and time again for a good ground pounding skirmish. I have downloaded maps and cheats for it to expand its game play enough that I am thoughly satisfied that I have gotten my moneys worth out of it.
I would say that this is one of the better C&C style games in recent years, though certainly not the best, it is none the less still very good.
Atari needs to make a patch... [Posted on 2007-10-22] ...in order for the game to run properly. My original AOW works fine but this new game needs a patch. I had trouble installing it. In single player mode you CANNOT use the NAVAL UNITS. If it were not for the need of a patch I would like to play the game. I recieved the package fine just as advertised. Thanks you did a great job in getting me my game. It's up to Atarti to fix this game now!
