I've actually been able to play Standoff now (at the cost of my school results) and I must say I really appreciate the amount of work that has gone into it. Although some story elements are pretty expectable and I wasn't really that angry when one of the characters died, I've really enjoyed it thus far.
And this is playing with the mouse! Very pathetically I'm playing on veteran level with a mouse because I can't plug my beautiful old sidewinder into one of those bloody USB-ports. Anyone recommend a good joystick for a good price?
Luckily, I've been stuck in the losing branch of episode 4 and I should give saving the Verdun a try, so I'll have more missions to play.
I've been really enjoying the talking heads and blowing up Kilrathi thus far. The Gothri seem to be way easier then they were in Privateer, but that seems right as you weren't flying military equipment in that game, either.
Can't wait to play episode 5. Is it going to be the last episode? I expect we're lining up for a battle for Terra.
One little nitpick: while the musical score of WC III is beautiful, it doesn't seem right to switch from the WC II score to the one of the third game as it really changes the feel of the game (at least for me). I really think the game should stick with WC I/WC II scores.
Furthermore: More scenes!! I love them (they are probably the hardest to make, I guess )
