Mosaic - Questions to the firm "Perestroika Software" on the demo version of the game "DUNE-2".

                 MOSAIC


(C) RINDEX


   Greetings to all. Long ago in ON-LINE was such a topic,
in which it was possible to ask any questions and immediately 
get an answer (forgot the name). So, after reading the last 
number and looking at the demo version of DUNE-2, I have a 
couple of questions to Game Maker - PERESTROIKA SOFTWARE.



   The first and most important question: "Which language will 
be a game?". Just a demo version has been remembered in 
English? And we all live is not in England. The game would have 
to be in Russian. After even on the PC this game is completely 
russifitsirovat, but here ... I still I hope that the game will 
be in Russian, as a description of all tanks, vehicles, 
buildings, etc. in English, read as a does not pull. Go further.



   The second question: "Why only support KEMPSTON mouse?". 
After connect AY-MOUSE is much easier and no fee is required.

I understand that Peter is more common KEMPSTON MOUSE, but
in Moscow since AY, and not only in Moscow ...


   And immediately follows another question: "What kind of 
idiotic management?" I hope the full version will have the 
option keys. 


   The fourth question: "What color are at home?". For the 
uninitiated, explain. Fighting three home Atredisy, Harkonnen 
and Ordos, blue, red and green, respectively (in black and 
white monitor will look very bad). Government forces in pink, 
but Freeman has brown ... 


   Fifth, do not last but the most important question: "How do 
all these above colors will get along on such a small radar 
screen? ". Here even multicolor not help, but without radar 
ill. I Dam this question a lot, and many can I answer that can 
be insert a flash. But forgive me, blinking sand worm! But

The location of its very important, who wants to waste their
money. And what is called a radar in the demo, so it
simply nonsense.


   The sixth question: "Will I be able to control their army on 
the radar?". Ask one and tighter command, for example twenty 
siege tanks, such as not pulling as well, stuck with the mouse 
to a point on the radar, and pointed to the spot where the tank 
is reached, is another matter. 


   Seventh question: "Why not fly planes, and hang like a 
helicopter?". I was very surprised to see it in the demo. In 
the original, they are always flying, and pick up lined with 
equipment, or shoot at the buildings, but here ... aircraft 
carrier shooting at its same. Not the case.



   That's it. I hope my questions answered authors of the game, 
and public opinion would like to hear. See ya.
