No desire to continue.

I was pretty excited about it until I got into actual combat. It's missing some aspect of visceral thrill that could make it a fun game. The HUD is too in-the-way. The sounds don't sound gunny-explodey enough. The whole experience just doesn't get immersive because everything falls a little short.

It's a shame because it seems like it could be a great game, and the things it gets wrong are little things that a lot of games get right. If an enemy walking tank hits my walking tank with a medium range missile, I should experience that as a multisensory shock, not just as a reduction in my hit points and an indicator that an enemy is offscreen. Disappointing.
