Hmm, I hope they release the beta to non-subsribers soon. I know it has a lot of similarities to the Age of.. series, but that's a good thing to me because I enjoyed them.
This space is available for rent
Yeah, me too, it really is a beaut, although a shameful ripoff of AoE. Still, it manages to better AoE and there's nothing wrong with using a successful formula if you can extend it.
BTW, does anyone know how to remove trees? Woodcutters don't seem to reduce the size of forest (which is realistic) and even if they did, they'd be too slow. Seems ridiculous that a country that can nuke it's enemies can't build a new airport because there is a tree in the way...
Also, how do you rotate non-square objects, or for that matter rotate the map 90 degrees?
Cheers,

War isn't about who's right, its about who's left.

I'm interested in this one as well... the RON trial is a great demo and offers lots of playability but hardly anything on it?? I was looking forward to discussing this game with peoples...
Just wondering Blue - has there been a change of policy about Fileplanet exclusives (another other similar cases, should any arise)? I seem to remember the Freelancer demo got a full news article when it was released as an exclusive, and was accompanied with a lot of controversy, but the Planetside beta and now the RoN beta hardly got a mention. I'm just curious, not upset. I suppose doing their advertising for free isn't really right.
