Just wanted to drop you all a line for our closed Beta impressions. Didn't know if you had seen these yet.

Cheers,

It's pretty much nothing like Red Alert, though. It's not too far off RA2 unit-wise but each side has a completely different build system (which inherently gives Allies the advantage if their base is under attack), then there's the whole "ore mines are limited" thing (and I think only one can dock at them, I don't pay enough attention to them though). I'd say Japan's units are overpowered right now but I'm sure that'll be resolved soon enough. Finally, the cameos and the descriptions for units look like they were written/drawn by crazy people.

If anyone wants any more detail on the beta and what's going on then I'll try and give some information. I've only found one bug so far and I've only had one crash (which I couldn't reproduce, annoyingly).
