Cossacks 2: Napoleonic Wars review:2 stars (Good fun, needs a patch though) - When I first got this game it failed to run on either my windows 2000 or xp systems. I later reformatted both computers and discovered that this game fails to run on a fully updated install of windows. Although there is one patch out at the moment, it fails to fix the problem. I'm hoping another patch is in the works that will fix it. What I have played of the game however, is fantastic. If and when this game gets another patch, I would raise my overall score to 5, until then, it gets 2. 5 stars (Great game!) - Cossacks 2 is a great game;one of the best strategy games of 2005.Dont listen to the negative reviews....this game has it all.The graphics,sound,computer A.I.,historical detail,etc. all make for a rewarding and entertaining gaming experience. The game ran perfectly on my PC(which is several years old and not a high end machine).So I dont really relate to all this talk about crashes,unfinished product,etc....I guess people will always find an excuse to whine and compain...lol.

1 stars (A Serious Disappointment) - I will try to give as brief a review as possible without it seeming like an article or thesis. I had really hoped that this game delivered, after all its hype. After trying Rise of Nations, and Empires:Dawn of the Modern World (which features a nice Napoleonic era, albeit too limited regarding unit choices and buildings) I really looked forward to C2: Napoleonic Wars, as this great time in history is often neglected in RTS gaming. After playing the rather choppy tutorial, I jumped in to the different modes of play and was immediately dismayed.

I could not distinquish easily the icons or buttons for resource management, the fog of war was way too small for the structures I built, I could not manage the population or troop building - the only choice seemed to be 'infinity'. Also, although the game promises a realistic feel for the battles, it just ended up being a free for all rush-party, troop formations not withstanding. The look of the units was not at all good. While the reenactment videos were OK, it is essentially the playability of the game that matters.

I can't help but wonder why CDV could not simply keep the same interface as the original 'Cossacks' and expansion, or even that of 'American Conquest'. Those formats worked well! Instead they chose to change it for the worse. No improvement here, and no justice to the Napoleonic Wars. I traded it in for Imperial Glory by Eidos/Pyro Studios, which is a far superior all-around game of this wonderful period in the 19th Century, along the lines of 'Rome Total War'. Please see my review on that, I highly recommend it over C2.
