Just my opinion but the only people who are going to crowd fund this project are MoW fans and all indications are this is a pretty small group that is apparently shrinking. If MoW, Red Tide, AS, Vietnam, and Condemned Heroes were as critically acclaimed (ie. successful, popular) as they are claiming they were, why are they leaving publisher 1C to do a crowd funded project? I wish them well, really I do, but my confidence in DMS was shattered long ago.....
Pessimistic people who can't appreciate something for what it is annoys me even if its you're subjective opinion.
Fact remains that Men of War series has one of the most impressive and deep micromanagement-systems in any RTS,
along with the most complex ballistic - physics model for projectiles. Add to that the really innovative Direct-Control
which was pioneered with the predecessor Soldiers heroes of ww2. No-one said its a full fledge rts sim but it has elements
in it which is very unique were games like Coh is left in the dust.
DMS is a small company and they've done what you can expect. They cleaned up the outfront series and released MOW.
After that they improved on it a hell of a lot with Assault Squad, its time they get to do their own thing.
I don't think a lot of people are disappointed in a modern move, if any game is justified to do it then its this game unlike
all the fps clones everywhere.
Men of War had the perfect mix between realism & fun, with the aim to actually provide for their fans instead of just the mass market.
Thankfully Kickstarter etc is the best thing that happent to PC gaming, we're seeing more and more proper games being developed for
their intended audiences & niches instead of just mainstream & casual clones, heck just look at "Takedown" a proper #%&*$# spritual
successor to the original R6 and Swat series.
