SEE Survey

1) Where and when did you hear about SEE (saw a preview, friend told me about it, found it on T3A, I heard about SEE about two months ago while looking for mods on the Rhovanion Alliance Sight.

2) What do you like most about SEE? The detail given to each character and unit found in the game. It seems to me like the SEE Staff take more pride in the game than EA's Staff did. I also like how their are variations in the units (ie = Every Rohirrim is not exactly the same)

3) What don’t you like about SEE (please no comments about the slow building times)? The lack of several heroes during the War of the Ring that were mention in the novels or seen in the movie

4) Would you advise it to a friend? Why/why not? Yes . The amount of fun that playing this mod has brought back to BFME II for me requires me to tell all my friends about it.

5) Do you mostly play skirmish matches or multiplayer matches? skirmish

6) If you could add one unit, which one would you choose? LA elven spearmen and swordsmen seen in LOTR:FOTR

7) If you could add one hero, which one would it be? Ellodan and Elrohir, the sons of Elrond

8) How would you react when the AI would beat you? I guess simply change my battle strategy up

9) Do you like the idea of the new camera system? yes

10) What maps would you like to have this camera system? as many as possible

11) Do you think we should port the mod to ROTWK? Or should we stay with TBFME II? I think it should be ported to ROTWK as well for those of us with both games
12) Do you often play the WOTR mode? yes

13) Do you often use CAH? Why? (cool powers, nice armour, …) no. The powers armour choices, and character appearances are a lot more limited than I thought they would be. If CAH was improved, I would like to make my own heroes, but right now, it sucks

14) Do you like the idea of adding a new Evil Men faction? Yes

15) Do you have any remaining comments or suggestions? [color="#3366FF"]Overall, you guys have the best BFME Series mod I have played, and I have played plenty of them. The only comments and suggestions I would like to make are (1) Keep up the great job you guys/girls are doing refreshing the game and giving it new life and (2) the one suggestion I would make is adding additional Heroes, Units, powers, and etc to make SEE even greater than it already is.

[Nazgûl]

Thank you so much

Just a little comment though...

6) If you could add one unit, which one would you choose? LA elven spearmen and swordsmen seen in LOTR:FOTR

See Survey

1) Where and when did you hear about SEE (saw a preview, friend told me about it, found it on T3A, …)?

- I don’t remember/know

2) What do you like most about SEE?

- Most importantly, we’ve got the stronger buildings
- the elimination of the rushing strategy


3) What don’t you like about SEE (please no comments about the slow building times)?

- buildings are a bit too strong,
- there are aerial units for every faction
- Some units stats. E.g. Eagle is too strong. Mumakil cost 4000 and goes down easily. Should reduce the price a little.


4) Would you advise it to a friend? Why/why not?

Already have advised it to a friend


5) Do you mostly play skirmish matches or multiplayer matches?

Skirmish.

6) If you could add one unit, which one would you choose?

- Units from ROTWK.

Not disappointed with the way in which I've been beaten. Would praise AI sometimes.

No, because I don't want to spend more money on roughly the same game.

12) Do you often play the WOTR mode?

No, because comp players can't be assigned to different teams. E.g. just two teams. It would be nice to have lots of teams against each other.

13) Do you often use CAH? Why? (cool powers, nice armour, …)

Yes, you can make your own avatar to roam Middle-earth, especially the troll. Hope you can fix his poison and leadership ability.

14) Do you like the idea of adding a new Evil Men faction?

Yes

[av8r]

Hmmm never saw this one, sorry to be so late on it! I'll have to speak for myself and the kids, they're asleep!

Was visting 3rd age and saw it I think on the homepage for t3a

2) What do you like most about SEE?
hmmm. Hard one...It seems "fuller": more complete. Not any one thing most and...

3) What don’t you like about SEE (please no comments about the slow building times)?
...don't really have anything I like least. It is a work in progress. Bugs are my least favorite and they are getting squished, one at a time!

4) Would you advise it to a friend? Why/why not?
Yes I would: if the person didnt own BFME then I wish the Development team would get the $$$ from the sale of EA's BFME discs. It ain't right...
It changes the game to in my opinion, to be more like movies and Tolkiens work and so is much cooler now

5) Do you mostly play skirmish matches or multiplayer matches?
Skirmish. Only have one disc or I'd play LAN with my kids

6) If you could add one unit, which one would you choose?
None. I'll ask my kids and edit this tomorrow.

7) If you could add one hero, which one would it be?
Arwen vacationing in the French Rivier...oh wait...

8) How would you react when the AI would beat you?
Handicap 'em LOL

YES!!!!

10) What maps would you like to have this camera system?
ANY!! One is fine, but more the merrier!

11) Do you think we should port the mod to ROTWK? Or should we stay with TBFME II?
Uhh...is ROTWK even related to Tolkien?

12) Do you often play the WOTR mode?
All the time if I can. My 3 girls do skirmish, my son does both.

13) Do you often use CAH? Why? (cool powers, nice armour, …)
Whenever I can. Like the powers and trying to balance the health, power, armor etc with who they are and who they battle.

14) Do you like the idea of adding a new Evil Men faction?
No opinion.

15) Do you have any remaining comments or suggestions?
Contract to EA or get Weta to buy gaming rights from them and contract to you. They are missing out on a cult following that will last longer than the games they make now like Woods, madden, etc.

[Grubbo]

1) Where and when did you hear about SEE (saw a preview, friend told me about it, found it on T3A, …)?
Was looking up info on RJ ROTWK on the revora forums, and found out about SEE just this past Christmas holiday.

2) What do you like most about SEE?
The "realistic" and intuitive balance, tied with the art revisions and clever selection of new units and powers.

3) What don’t you like about SEE (please no comments about the slow building times)?
I can't play WOTR with SEE.

4) Would you advise it to a friend? Why/why not?
I would and I have. My friends are all like minded in what we loved about the very first BFME and what we hated about he second. The SEE mod addresses pretty much all of these issues, and therefore I know my friends would love this mod.

5) Do you mostly play skirmish matches or multiplayer matches?
Both.

Knights of Dol Amroth.

7) If you could add one hero, which one would it be?

Yes, but I wouldn't use it during gameplay, only during replays.

10) What maps would you like to have this camera system?
All maps.

Port to ROTWK just for an unneccessary Evil Men faction? No thanks.

I do and did...sad that i can't play it with SEE.

13) Do you often use CAH? Why? (cool powers, nice armour, …)
Nope, always switch it off.

14) Do you like the idea of adding a new Evil Men faction?
Nope. Goes against what I feel is the fundamental guiding principle behind this mod. Its jumping the shark.

15) Do you have any remaining comments or suggestions?
Keep up the fantastic work, but don't cave in to the pressure of fanboys who just want to dump tons of obscure LOTR units and characters into the mod just for the sake of having them there. Keep true to your initial vision!

SEE Survey

1) Where and when did you hear about SEE (saw a preview, friend told me about it, found it on T3A, …)?
I found SEE when I first joined Revora after learning about RJ-RotWK on Lord of the Rings on Filefront
2) What do you like most about SEE?
I like how it adds more units and heroes that made BFME2 much more enjoyable
3) What don’t you like about SEE (please no comments about the slow building times)?
Sorry, but I must... The building times are SO SLOW.
4) Would you advise it to a friend? Why/why not?
I would if I had any. SEE has implemented plenty of balance to the game and added units and heroes that were missing and needed to be added direly. Not to mention, better skins.
5) Do you mostly play skirmish matches or multiplayer matches?
I stick to skirmish as it is too hard to find a multiplayer match.
6) If you could add one unit, which one would you choose?
Guards of the Citadel (in Minas Tirith).
7) If you could add one hero, which one would it be?
Well, these 2 are mentioned in pairs... Elladan and Elrohir. There's also Cirdan.
8) How would you react when the AI would beat you?
I get pissed off and blame any allies I have or curse at the slow build times.
9) Do you like the idea of the new camera system?
Yes.
10) What maps would you like to have this camera system?
Minas Tirith, Minas Morgul, Dol Goldur.
11) Do you think we should port the mod to ROTWK? Or should we stay with TBFME II?
RotWK please.
12) Do you often play the WOTR mode?
Yes.
13) Do you often use CAH? Why? (cool powers, nice armour, ...)
Yes, they make up for missing characters, you can make them WAAAAY op, and they have better quality skins than most mods (maybe all) have mannaged to make (unless you count the Wizard's face). They do have a lack of options though and the one I miss most is the crown/helm thingy from RotWK's captains.
14) Do you like the idea of adding a new Evil Men faction?
Yes.
15) Do you have any remaining comments or suggestions?
SPEED UP THE BUILDING TIMES BY 2x!!!!!!
