What would you like added to UGG

[Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck]

My idea: Breaking caualties to killed, wounded and missing/captured. Also, add possibility of capturing cannons.

You hit the nail on the head with this.  This is such a critical thing to add to immersion yet only the game "Pike and Shot" breaks down casualties in to dead and wounded.

i voted for game speed change.  i know it is not realism, but i sure could use a pause button, like in sid's gettysburg game.  gives us noobs a chance to view the battlefield "in stasis".

 

also, you REALLY need to have leader casualties.  losing a general has a DRAMATIC effect on units in the command of the lost general.

Well, there actually is a pause button ("P").

I chose my second favourite option on the list - the multi-person team multiplayer, because the option I would kill for isn't on there that I saw. Being able to change unit facing without having to move a unit. If my troops are on the edge of 70% cover, I don't want to have to fiddle a lot with moving them around to get them to change their facing so they can defend the flank. Half the time they move into poor cover and if I needed a quick facing change and didn't have the time to fiddle with pulling them back into the woods and waiting for them to turn around? It just causes unnecessary casualties. Attack orders do that sometimes, sure, but they also move often when one is issued and don't face the full direction I want. Maybe it's a niche need I have it for, but facing controls would be perfect.

 

Though 2v2 battles would be 100% awesome as well. Maybe small MP campaigns?

Have you tried pressing the TAB key and moving the mouse cursor around while you have a unit selected?

 

That will rotate the unit without the need to drag an arrow and thus cause it to move from its position.

That's a thing? I'll have to try it next time I boot up UG. Thank you!

Yup, it's most probably what you were looking for. Try it and report back, though!

no wait ... ahahah, i voted now !

 

regiment should be the minor formation aviable, more regiments form a brigade.

single regiment, as unit, is too important for the war/period.

each regiment has its colours, his history, his men, his come from land.

simplify is trivialize.

 

i hope much more types of units, differents half uniforms for confederates, zuavis, yankees with hat tipical of the regiments which come from Wisconsin, or of the iron brigade ...

 

anyway to make it short, i think the main points should be :

 

Unit Formation Line, Double Line, Skirmish, Column

 

Detach Regiments from Brigade

 

Modding 

Sandbox Mode, Scenario Generator

 

this last point needs to the game to be remembered and not just plaied in a couple of months, but you know !

 

AI is perfect, not the game (and isn't few ...)

 

about on-line, don't expect nothing by me about, i mean, i never did and i can't play multiplayer.

then, i saw a great and unique game like american conquest dead on-line because basically multiplayer game (scandalous to play it in single player)

 

ciao
