Forum Overview :: East India Company

Re: My advice for anyone who wants to buy this shit by N 08/06/2009, 10:38pm PDT On the plus side, the demo provides enough of the game to correctly decide it is bad: - loading screen to switch from port view to strategic view or the other way around - 'fleets' of up to five ships - automated trade routes only between your home port and one 'other' port; if you want a triangle trade, have fun handling every port call manually (see the first drawback) - capturing ports is handled via auto-resolve; you can lose ships that take most of a year to build in an attempt to conquer the weakest backwater lagoon - doesn't go far enough east, Aceh on the west tip of Indonesia is as far as the map goes Yet if you zoom in far enough, they modelled the belt buckles on individual sailors!
