So now that we get a very, very basic idea of what this game will be like I find some things annoy me pretty much all the time. The major one is that the buttons for building in cities are not placed in a logical way.

I generally have a city centered in my screen when I click it. Now if I want to build something or train a unit or build a road, I need to click a tiny tiny button at the bottom of the screen. It would be more convenient imo if there could some interface pop up next to the city I clicked. This interface should contain each and every button that this small bar at the bottom has now. That way gameplay will be much faster and maybe the bottons for selecting different options can be a bit bigger.

Alternatively, maybe it is an idea to increase the size of the bar at the bottom when selecting something to build. with units there is this screen that fills the entire screen, but with buildings we get to use this tiny bar at the bottom of the screen. Very early in the game you will need to sidescroll in that tiny bar because of the amount of buildings available since the bar will only hold four buildings. It would be more convenient to have this large popup that fills the screen or at least a larger field where you can select what to build, because when I need to select a building I am not looking at the map anyway.

Discuss?
