I then exrpress my doubts to Paradox, explaining that if they don't add some features they are going to lose a lot of customers (the hard-core ones), and I just got laughts from Janh and worsely from future customers.

so, I decided not to buy this game, and I see now that I WAS RIGHT.

It lacks what Kotler calls Brand Positioning.
“act of designing the company’s offering and image to occupy a distinctive place in the minds of target market.” Kotler

Currently it holds no positioning. Its neither a simple fun game like Naval Fields, nor is a complex simulator like Harpoon. It only tries to simplify/imitate simple games like Fleet Command, which it does poorly!
