Phil Kowalski: "I’d like to, if I may, take you back in time. Back to a time of green screen monitors, Amstrad home computers and a game that was critically acclaimed to be the number 1 title of 1988. That game was the original Carrier Command and although I didn’t have the opportunity to play it at the time (I was too busy playing Chuckie Egg) it caused ripples in strategy gaming circles that can be seen in modern games even now. There have been a few attempts to resurrect this gaming ethos and it has spawned a number of spin-off books and fan-fiction, but now, Bohemia Interactive and Mastertronic have brought the IP kicking and screaming into the modern age, but is it as good as it used to be?"
PJ: "Carrier Command: Gaea Mission. A re-imagining of a little known, but well-loved, strategy game from days of yore. Made by those lovely people who bring us the highly praised, though flawed, ARMA games. How well do their talents translate across to a more sedate, though equally tactically oriented style of play? Walrus."
Worst carrier game I have ever played in my life. I destroyed my APC by driving up a ramp. Not to mention the AI killing my units, yet I can only pilot/command 1/4 of the units at a time.
Graphics was great I agree, but they seriously didn't think everything through on this "remake" aka "re-destroy"
More deals from Steam, how's your wallet coping?
Bohemia Interactive has released a brand new update for the Windows PC version of Carrier Command: Gaea Mission, which released in October last year.
