I have the PC version, however, so I'd hope that whip select is gone and I can box select like a normal RTS game. How it will work out... Well, we'll see, I suppose. Just to mention: "And on the subject of casualties, Stormrise’s central mecha-operating protagonists are your equivalent of the king in Chess - regardless of the size and firepower of your army, it’s game over if either of them are killed." This is also the way Supreme Commander works, so it's nothing new. I’ve read nothing but crap about Stormrise and it sits still unopened on my desk as a result.
