The editors didn't like
Multiplayer is more of the same.
The dialog can get a little hackneyed
The base gameplay is very much StarCraft
For better or worse. The wheel has not been reinvented (you could argue this should go in the Good
Or the Ugly)
The lack of LAN play is a major mistake
And will turn many
Adds virtually nothing new
Single-player is a mite too easy.
Out-mission graphics somewhat lacking
Camera control with W
A
S
And D keys would help
Occasional crashes
No LAN support for multiplayer gameplay
Some units stripped out of multiplayer mode to provide game balance.

It’s preaching to the converted.
A claustrophobic story
And not as much innovation as you’d think
A bit more revolution of the gameplay would have been nice.
Not as innovative as the original
Custom game browsing needs work.
Some Battlenet inconveniences
Only one campaign.
No chat rooms
No clan support

And the game has region locks. Some players of more modern RTS games may find gameplay too simple. Overpriced for a computer game.
