Per Brad's suggestion, here's a thread for our suggestions. Sounds like Stardock will improve this part of the game if we can come up with some good suggestions. So ADD yours people!
Here are some of mine:
When a state is voting, and after we've zoomed in have the game display an overlay that displays the state along with it's population and other details, pretty similar to the state info screen only add some room below for: running the popular vote counts up (or to the side if screen realestate is precious) on bar graphs as the returns come in. Republican elephant on one side, dem. donkey on the other.... if people withhold or vote indy that's in the middle.
If a state is NOT in contention the returns come in FAST- so if it's 80%-20% then this goes FAST. IF it's a state like Florida and it's 53-47... the returns come in slower... so the drama is played out a little bit.
So, non-drama states= FAST
high drama states = slow....
Leave DONE button on overlay so player's can skip a state or cut to it's results quick.
ADD a button, something like: RESULTS which cuts this whole process out for those players who want the end to go by really fast like it does now. Or maybe make this an option in the game setup- DETAILED election night or QUICK election night. Although I think players who don't want the details ought to be playing some FPS or something.
That's all for now.
