DA final graphics

from GalCiv2 Forums
I was just wondering how much new graphics we are going to get with DA final build? I sure hope the land combat graphics have been redoned completely.

In my mind the new ship graphics and explosions are quite good but for example the land combats can hardly be called cool. There could be tons of sweet gfx eye candy in land combat animations, but as it is, I just watch how the numbers go down. There is hardly any variation in land combats, I quess thats my main whine here. Ship combat screen is way better than in the original GC2 so Iam quite content about that part of the game.

So what do you think, which part of the game could use more artistic touch?

Umm yeah. I can go with that. Anyway, reminds me of rednecks sitting on 18-wheelers with rifles and drinking beer. I don't have to have an update but if there's room, let's do it.

There's still a few screens that sometimes pop-up. Events using pics that could be from the old Gal Civ. Help. I'd nominate that.

Would be nice if the Korath and Krynn got new logos instead of altered old ones.
ObjectDock - Access shortcuts and frequently used applications from an animated dock.

Some new race logos and portrait pictures would be nice too. Not too hard to add them manually, but some people are lazy

I agree with all of the above.

I know Christmas is over but since we are asking for things, I guess I should add on.
I would like to have an interface which can be customized. I have played serveral games where you could create macros and move tabs and buttons to where ever you would like. Do not get me wrong, I do like the set up now... except for maybe the "Turn" button located to close to the "done" button when the "GNN" screen pops up...

You know what? Just move the Turn or Done button and I will be happy...
