I may be a little bit late, but while searching how Z games work (because I forgot) i found out
AW 1 & 2 is getting remastered for the switch, i dont own a switch neither do I plan on buying
one just for that, but i want to see you all's opinions on it, I'll watch the trailer just to be on the
same page and continue commenting

Also made this map as a semi throwback to AW1-2 styled maps, no comm towers because DS
isnt real and can't hurt us

The trailer looks like it only shows AW1

Hot take: the anime looking CO depictions are bad, at least they are smooth but i preferred the
original "pixelated" 2-5 frame reactions (when an unit is destroyed or you destroy someone
else's)

the clay/plastic looking maps/units are fine, these also reinforce the theory that AW is just a
board game, the animations look fine

Now, let's bet (i forgot the correct word) what they will have and if they have differences

> New units?

I dont think so, at most there will be AWDS ones except for the oozium

> AWDS additions? (Comms, Tags, Dual screen)

The only one I see possibly be added (and only design maps) is the comm tower

> More levels?

100% sure the campaigns will be at least a little bit longer, and the battle maps will probably
contain more as well as war room

> More COs?

New ones? Not a chance, AW3 ones? Possible, if comm towers exist there's a chance AWDS
COs are imported, if COs are imported Comm towers too

> Online play? Paid or not?

Absolutely, not sure, maybe there's a local play/LAN feature

> Balance changes?

Not sure, balancing naval units without changing how bridges work would be a waste, also in
the trailer the cruiser sucks against b copters, it took 6 DMG from Max B copters and dealt 0(?)
Back so power re-balances seem non existent, and price changes weren't shown

UNLESS the footage was taken from AW2, drake doesn't seem to have his 2 stars on boats trait,
and im not gonna do math to see if it was changed for a 20% defense on all naval units

There weren't any CO Powers shown, so no idea

---------------

Do you think this would bring players into AWBW and the Hacking scene? Im sure that at least
AWBW will have some player gains

^ fuck i forgot there is a treehouse "episode" I'll go check it out and update the comment
accordingly

Nothing different really shown at the treehouse episode, just a little bit more of how the game
plays, on a tutorial Nell vs Olaf mission and in (i think) mission 5 of campaign (Andy Vs Eagle)
Not worth watching unless you want to see animations, details and such, no gameplay of AW2
yet
