Why We Like PzC

[Huib Versloot]

Well I guess I'm a little bit less positive then... Don't want to spoil the mood of others but IMO only VM's work and a few others has lifted the game to an acceptable and in some cases high level.
-HPS historical research is not up to standard. At least not up to mine and a lot of others. Some titles literally contain hundreds of errors. With the rate HPS has been putting out titles this is perhaps no wonder.
-It is impossible to correct the map errors.
-The 2d graphics are just acceptable but 3d graphics are awful and nothing has ever been done to change it.

The game engine is great and good enough to survive for a long time to come but that is really the only thing you get for your money if you're serious about history. If you want to have a decent historical simulation you have to build the campaign from the ground up for each title by yourself. Without a map editor I found that to be impossible, but I support those who venture it such as VM and Rev Rico.
IMO the game will seriously improve when a map editor is released and HPS abandon their monopoly on new maps/campaigns. That may not be good for the money the seem to want to squeeze out of it but for the quality level of future campaigns/scenarios it will be a blessing.
