Now that I know it won't be released till "spring", I am giving a sigh of relief.

Wasa, if you want to churn your own butter and crank start your car, go right ahead. The rest of us live in 2016, and want to think about tactics, position and strategies, not spend the majority of our time babysitting and doing useless busywork. I'm surprised you did not say "You newfangled game whippersnappers, get these new game progressions off my lawn!". Also, for those not aware, there IS an auto build/join utility in the game. But

I could not agree more. Engineer babysitting is not fun or strategic in any way. And when you play humans, and they bomb your rear resources (which is often difficult to notice in the heat of a half dozen battles), it's even more of a major pain to find the damaged/missing nodes, get a engineer to them, and micro them to rebuild everything. Blueprinting would be great, as having to repeat the defensive buildings build orders is yet another monotonous task. <

I agree with you somewhat. At this time, the micro in this Beta is a step backwards from SoaSE. I spend as much, if not more time with extractor and engineer micro, and hunting down destroyed extractors, and then even MORE micro to rebuild them, than I do with strategy. http://steamcommunity.com/app/228880/discussions/0/412446292753267630/
