Good game

I love this game but I have a problem with using the global strike trident when I want to select multiple places, it only lets me select one place. Love the game but pls fix

Good but just one thing

It’s an amazing game, awesome, but can hI I update and add a button where there is a button to click on all of your provinces and build all cruise missiles or icbm’s or irbm’s, or expand or debuild, I think it will help with the tediousness of the game, that’s all pls consider this!!!!

Need more nation’s

I played this game for along time but stopped. Because it gets a little repetitive. Playing the same nations. Buts that’s all otherwise it’s a great game.

The Update Killed A Great Game

Was pretty excited for the update and remastered version, but have never been so horribly wrong before. Like yes it looks a bit better but I just don’t like the the gameplay change. Things are just super touchy and is almost impossible to defend your territory with how hyper aggressive AI is and how ridiculously fast the bombs are early in the game. Which defeats the purpose of developing the technology aspect of it, especially when the AI seems to get jacked in development speed. Overall not happy with it, and am tremendously disappointed and probably won’t be playing the game anymore unfortunately. Didn’t have the heart to give it 1 star considering how much I loved this game and could count on it when board at appointments and what not. :(

The new update...

It’s great to see that the game was finally updated after awhile of neglect, however the update is a somewhat of a new game. Like it says, the AI is completely different with new behaviors. I don’t know if it’s just me not playing the game for a bit, but I think the update is a step down in some areas. It’s definitely a lot more fast paced than the last update. I’m sure it’s just me not being used to the new update, overall still fun.
