One of the issues I noticed when playing the beta is that despite all the information some of the data I want is not readily or easily available.
For example in a game last night Bush controlled California with 50% to my 34%. I needed that state and decided that I would throw everything at it. I could see that Bush had 2 newspaper ads and 1 radio add. I could see Bush has a level 2 HQ. What I really needed to see was how all these affected the voting change each turn. I wnted to know how many ads, campaigning, visits I needed to win this state over 10 weeks and just couldn't find out. In the end I build 2 TV ads, 2 operatives and just kept visiting and campaigning.
What I would like to see when I click on a state it shows you
- change in awareness last turn
- change in voting % last turn
At least the you can gauge how things are changing and what you need to do.
