Also, I found the music pacing to be way off. The learning curve is steep, there is pretty much zero tutorial at the moment and this could put people off but I would encourage you to persevere as the rewards are worth it. There are a few things that annoyed me though. This was especially impressive during battles as massive cruisers pass over reigning death upon you.

Things are just as pretty when in FPS mode as you are able to view what’s going on outside through the vast windows of your space station. You can also explore your space station on foot and lead the defenses on foot should you be boarded.Įxecutive Assault 2 also looks beautiful (see gallery below) with a very dramatic background of your home planet. Currently, the insides of the ships feel a little generic but are just about different enough to give them their own feel. You can directly control most of the ships from a cockpit view as well as a more tradition RTS tactical overview. The FPS aspect of the game gives Executive Assault 2 an offering that a traditional RTS doesn’t. I haven’t actually managed to achieve this yet but have been on the receiving end of such an attack. On top of attacking with ranged attacks, you can land troop transports on your opponent space station and lead squads of battle robots into battle. At first, combat feels a little sluggish as all of the ships move very slowly but I still felt the pressure trying to respond to attacks by the AI who on my first few tries absolutely obliterated me. There are loads of fighting spacecraft to research and use in battle from the humble fighter to the massive goliath which can destroy a space station in a single shot.
