I had really hoped this would have been better... a patch is needed very badly to correct many of the tech problems. Although there are some very nice features that have been added I found the game to be boring and very uneventful. I don't want it easy but I sure don't want to walk the map for 3 hours before I see something other than a fish floating across the land!!! LOL I think their loyal customers would have been better served had they put the new technologies into Trophy Hunter 2004 instead.
