Update has still not fixed zoom or control issues.
Update:
I still consider this game unplayable with a Magic Trackpad and with the view so incredibly zoomed in. Guess I’ll have to resort to playing the game through Origin on our Windows computer.
Original Review:
I’ve loved playing this game since it was originally released over 10 years ago. It’s the same game, but I foolishly bought it on March 15, three days after it was released. The biggest problem, and it makes it unplayable for me, is the fact that the zoom is way too tight. Imagine zooming in about half-way or so as in other versions, but not being able to zoom out any further. You can’t control the game efficiently if you are accustomed to the true version of the game. I would imagine this can’t be a hard fix, but for now we shall see if a future update corrects the problem.
I sincerely hope the game is corrected and other titles, C&C 3 - Tiberium Wars in particular, are re-released for the newer OSX platforms. As popular as these games have been, it would be a shame to leave this version as-is.
