My Initial Thoughts and Recomndations

First off, love the game, really really nice and far too easy to become absorbed into,

I’d like to throw the following out there though, as my thoughts on some things that could be polished.

  • Slow the Pace of the game down! I can ‘complete’ the game in a few hrs without trying, I’d like a single game to be more of a week-long type game, one I can pick up and play a bit, then come back to. right now the game progress rockets along.
  • menu’s : Just My thoughts but the constant pop-up of context menus gets tiresome, some of them could be kept in one corner (think Sims controls…) there’s more than enough screen real estate, and I found on lower powered systems (aka my laptop) the menu’s pretty much freeze gameplay while they open / close.
  • The info pop ups (XYZ consol is being developed… etc) I can’t help but call to mind one of the best unobtrusive notifications ever done in a game similar to this: Theme Hospital, a light bell noise with a little tab that would slide into being on the UI until you clicked it to read the message, or if it was important flashed like buggery to make you click it… the giant game-stopping mid-screen pay-attention-now pop ups kind of ruin the game flow a little.

These are my big 3 right now… and I’ve seen several other threads of suggestions, so if anything these voice my vote on things to perhaps re-visit with a patch maybe?

all in all, great game, I’m sure I’ll play a little more before I tire of it!

many thanks to all @ Greeheart
