well i played and own BCMG and i thought that game was grate but i did have a few times were it died on me like when i would shoot a OTS missile aka orbit to surface missile :D and yes its a super weapon some games give us nukes and some games give us black hole generating weapons of mass destruction but what whats that you wont a game that lets you be a starship captain and lets you make all the important unscripted designs you wont a game that lets you take an entire city off the face of a planet well thats a game for you but thats not a just it for you is it why not kick it up well thats what universal combat does it bring an even better well even better every thing that happens in this game once it happens chances of it doing it again are one in a million you wont see the same thing happen twice the game play is a little hard at first to get us when you first start up you see things like WHI, SVI, VMI, MTAR etc etc and that can look just plain scary to a new player to the game but don't let it freak you out were there is a will there is a way and giving up never got Any thing done just crack open the book that came with the game in no time you are a captain think of this book as a tool it is the tool to make you a starship captain no were not talking a guy who cleans toilets for a living your the guy who gets to pick who cleans your toilet your the captain and we all know a captain needs a clean toilet but this game isn't about toilets so ill get down to what i thought of it over all i think Ive try'ed my best to get people to look at the game "with open eyes and ears that will listen"

the graphics of the game aren't all that grate ill say that right off the bat because with games like unreal tournament 2007 and dare i say it F.E.A.R
we have seen GOOD graphics i mean wow those are some nice ones right well now imagine a game of this size with those graphics ya that would be nice no that would be WICKED SICK but what good is a game with good graphics when you need some monster PC to play it its all most safe to say that its all most impossible for it to have them that good and still be as big as this so taking that in to consideration the graphics are fine there is nothing horribly wrong with them were not flying a bunch of card board cut outs around in space

the sound well thats a bit better then the graphics but then again this is a simulator so i don't think there would be no death metal back ground music playing all the time if there was you would most likely turn in to a crazy starship captain so the sound is all so fine its not grate but its not ear bleeding bad either there just right

now for the cream of this game its the AI the AI in this game are not dumb
they know what there doing they will use every thing in the hand book to kill you they will use blind spots to stay out of the way of your point defense lasers they will use mines and missiles they will even fly to you attack and cloak and Waite they will do every thing they can to stop you and you needless to say have to do the same but once again a ship and its crew is only as good as its captain so read your books people there life or death in this game and every game comes with them and a sheet that shows you control's but the AI still is smart and they will learn from there mistakes you've been warned lol

the control's now here is thin ice people like then and people hate them what do i think well lets look at this if you were flying a starship with a squadron of space fighters and such do you think you could fly the thing with just say asdw and the space bar and your your mouse if you think that you should talk to your doctor there might be some thing wrong lol well yet they are some what hard to use and to really think of it some of them you wont use and if you do you wont use them a lot but if you read your book these control's aren't all that hard to remember just keep your references close thats the best advice any one could give you so my over all thoughts on the control's they need some work but there usable there not that bad in the long run there ok

my over all don't let the game scare you from its looks read your book Ive said that how many times its pretty much your only hope at being able to play thing game take notes down two as you read it if your in school and got some free time in class read the book its the best tutorial you can find for this game as all ways have fun and maybe ill see you out there in space
