Strategic Assault real-time strategy game for P800

25 replies · 5,895 views · Started 12 March 2003

I just installed the demo. This game is brilliant and a perfect match for the P800. I already know I am not going to get much work done today!!

This game rocks.. One of the best for the P800.. Clocked the demo and am hanging to play more.. Perfect to play waiting in traffic etc etc

For the 6 bucks how many missions do you get?

Strategic Assault is 5.99 and has 15 missions.

The Forest Fire add-on pack is 4.99 and has another 15 missions and different graphics.

We dont have plans to support the 9210 I'm afraid. They dont have touch-screens anyway right? Strategic Assault would be unplayable without a touchscreen.

I can understand that, but just for the sake of arguement, C&C works on a playstation just using the pointer controls.

so if you feel bored, pls reconsider 😃
Strategy Games can be played with cursor controls.

9210 can be connected to a normal serial mouse!!!!

Only thing needed is a female - female serial connector. 😉

I'm a annoying person aren't I? 😉

Realistically it isnt going to happen, sorry!

It would cost us considerable money to buy a 9210 and develop and test the game on it, and Strategic Assault is more fast-paced than desktop RTS games. We designed it that way to make it more suitable for mobile gaming. Take my word for it that SA would indeed be no fun to play without touchscreen control.

Hehe 😉

Well nothing left to say, except good job, looks great! 😊

That is nothing to do with the game, it must be a problem with the way you are installing it or with the installer software. If you email xen games support with full details I can give you advice.

Doh sorry, just relealised that i havent removed my nokia pc manager on my work PC.

Can i send the sis file to the phone and will it install their or do i need my p800 software installed on the work pc aswell.

One way to install is with the desktop software that comes with the P800.

You can also install by sending the sis file to the phone and opening it. You could do this by bluetooth, IR, or email.

cheers for the help, ive installed it via IR, top game, maybe i should have done some work this afternoon.

Is there anything approaching a manual for it anywhere? I tlooks really nice but I haven't got a clue what I'm doing 😊.

You can:

1) Play through the tutorial in the first mission.

2) Read the manual, select help from the in game menu.

We will probably put up a manual on our website soon as well.

can someone help me? im 17 and i live in the philippines. unfortunately, i have no idea how to get or buy this game. From what i heard, this game rocks so id like to have this game on my p800. i just have no idea how! argh! i know this is really stupid. peace!

I don't know how could i've missed this,this game looks awesome.Darn,that p800 takes a long time to be bought 😞

@gamefanatic: you can get it here: http://www.handango.com/brainstore/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=308&platformId=4&productType=2&productId=61973&sectionId=0&catalog=1 but you'll need a credit card.

I'd like to just mention that use 9210 people are hardcore so gaming without a touchscreen would be no problems, hell touchscreens are for girls and Theory Test centres. If you really are going to be nasty and not support it (queue crying), then could you pass the source on to someone else to port and split the money?
