Carrier Command: Gaea Mission?

Nobody seems to be talking about this game, as it seems Bohemia has released it to little fanfare. Knowing BI the game is going to be stiff but is it worth sticking with? Have to wait for proper reviews.

I'm really interested on the game since it looks fun, the production values are high (Even the 360 version looks incredible) and because I remember playing the original on an emulator on a constant basis a few years ago.

I might have to get it on the 360 though, since my PC is becoming really old (I'm still using a GTX 460) and based on ArmA II and Operation Arrowhead... I think I'm not going to be able to run the game (I have heard they are optimizing their games more but unless I have a demo I can't be sure of that).

Looks interesting! When I saw the Thread title I was thinking of an old DOS game which it is based on.

An average fps of 40+ is playable enough to me :wink:

Users are complaining on the Steam forum. I reckon when it comes to BI never get a game from them on release. Somehow I doubt this game will get patched with the same earnest attitude towards their main franchise.

I liked that game, although it was quite hard to get into wasn't it. Pretty cool back in the day to be able to control different vehicles.

Well now we know why Bohemia never bothered to hype this game.

The gameplay reminds me of Urban Assault, only with less ability to just go straight RTS mode. And Urban Assault wasn't that fun either. You really get the sense that the game is balanced around you getting directly into the fight, and as a result you can't just go RTS mode the whole time.
