All you really need to see in the game is the map of the entire area (unless you're ordering new troops). Some gamers might find the new interface more complicated than it's worth and the toolbar at the bottom of the screen takes up quite a bit of unnecessary space.

After you've played a few missions, though, chances are you'll get the feel of maneuvering your troops despite the learning curve. Under this setup, it's also easier to tilt the screen up and down and rotate the cameras around them. The only way to possibly take control and view all the action is to press the "V" key to lock onto your troops' movement and have the screen follow them automatically. It's difficult to maneuver your troops at first because you can lose them very quickly by accidentally moving them at the wrong angle. With so many different zoom and rotation capabilities, you need to listen to the tutorial before really getting involved with the game. The interface is especially difficult to get used to. It is unique and has some good properties but Lucas Arts could have ironed out major weak points to make it a better experience. When looked at in the light of the overused format of the huge raft of games exploiting the popularity of Star Wars, this RTS doesn't offer significantly more than its competition.

Still, with the game's new features and objectives, it has trouble realizing its potential as a great video game. The game plays much differently than most RTS games and the interface is new.
