[quote quoting="post"] So, i'm a long-time fan of RTS. I have played Supreme Commander, Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance, and Supreme Commander 2 (which was frankly a utter failure to me.) So, knowing what turned out to be Planetary Annihilation, which i support... Is this game worth it? Is it so revolutionary? And what's this subscription deal? Is it like EVE? Or is it pay once and get it for life deal? [/quote] Yes it is worth pay
Well have you played company of Heroes? that kind of play style will be AOTS, but in a way bigger scale, i am saying that because of what i understood by reading about AOTS Lets say the faster player to get more Territory will build faster units and have more buildings, and that's fine for me of course the developers need to find a way for the other player to have options to take the territory from the first player who took it, that's were the strategy comes, it should be a wa
The game is sill in a very early stage of development, of course they don't know about numbers yet till they get the alpha build ready or maybe till beta for them to decide how many players can get in MP. I think what Frogboy said is fine, they need to test the Engine with all of us in MP, we need to wait till July...
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="82" id="3536466"] Re creating custom meta rules: This too would be a great article to discuss. I may have mentioned this elsewhere but the key point about Ashes is that it's being designed as a long-term investment by us. That's why it's a brand new 64-bit, DirectX 11/12/Vulkan platform. So what we have in 1.0 is very different than what will be in say 3.1 of the game. [/quote] Nice, I hope to s
I like to see an article explaining how artillery work in the game, or maybe wait for the alpha to see it ourself.
T4 Prototype Units will be very interesting to see happening as a DLC. keep the good work :)
[quote who="Island Dog" reply="1" id="3536024"] Thanks for posting, but I'd suggest just linking to their site and not copying their entire article here. Let people visit their site so they get the traffic. [e digicons]:)[/e] [/quote] yes i wanted to do it but i don't know how, sorry.
I wrote this link a while ago, Because i don't see Stardock/Oxide putting it on news section of the forums, so i took the liberty by putting it here for everyone to check it out Hope you will like it. Ashes of the Singularity , Stardock and Oxide Games’ gargantuan RTS, immediately impresses with its scope. When Stardock CEO Brad Wardell showed
For me its gonna be fine for the Units not moving on water, the idea is to make the terrain of the game more interesting and to create better strategies. Like I said in different post, ''all units Hover in the game, so if they enable units to move on water then why making Naval units?'' ''If the Community want it really bad. Then why not enabling the hover on ONLY RIVERS but the units will loose 90% of their speed plus make them more vu
[quote who="hajmyis" reply="6" id="3535878"] in the game hit the ` button and type unlock. this will gave you all techs so you can see what the end game units look like [/quote] ?? What? ??
[quote who="tatsujb" reply="1" id="3535882"] how about we start with the basics? NAVY [e digicons]:yes:[/e] More than 2 factions [e digicons]:yes:[/e] water hover land units strategic icons first DLC should feature those IMO. then we can see about the above, which, btw, I support 100%<b

I got that answer from Frogboy on my post. Are we getting epic size units, like in supreme Commander 1 & 2? The largest units currently are around 600 meters long. In
Oxide I have another question that you guys may like. Q. Can we create our own Meta-units Formations Rules? You said ( ""Meta-units operate under specific, consistent rules. For example, a group of short-ranged tanks will always protect their slower moving, more vulnerable long-range artillery. Players will create strategies that revolve around these consistent rules to get the most out of their armies."" )</spa
I think it will be cool to see a T3 unit moving in on top of T1 units, when that happens the small units start loosing HP till they explode, the T1 units will loose HP at a 50% speed while the T3 unit will loose HP at..lets say 5% speed. i think it will be a great idea, Something like in Sup-Com ( in Sup-Com the small units explode instantly when the legs of the big unit touch the small ones, but in AOTS all of them use the Hover technology, it means that the T1 tanks will somehow don
Your talking about the pre-alpha video from the Vault? 00:35 to 00:39? yes that was interesting to watch and understand the movement of the units better. I like that each unit has some kind of anti bump radius between each other. ( tank1 move near tank2 and tank2 move away from tank1 to get out off its radius) I see its happening to the air units too. But what about or why do enemy units have that same radius between each other? i am talking about blue team vs Red team, as
its fine with me not turning the units into icons, i think its gonna be cooler to play with the map moving around everywhere. I want to see whats happening in the map and not seeing icons or dots, Anyway, I like a good zoom out in an RTS game but not all the way out for me to stop seeing my units at all. I think AOTS is going to be great designing it that way by making War more interesting to look at, and Remember that "meta-units" that act together as a single, coherent, m
[quote who="Adridos" reply="18" id="3533396"] Quoting Raevn, reply 17 There are very few TA clones, not dozens. In fact, the entire family of TA-like games is: Total Annihilation Supreme Commander / Forged Alliance Supreme Commander 2 (debatable, due to how much was changed) Planetary Annihilation
That's cool, I just gonna wait to see and play the game myself. Oxide may do a great Job with AOTS or may not we have to see. For now you have my support 100%. Go Stardock/Oxide!
[quote who="Adridos" reply="6" id="3533259"] Quoting ASADDF, reply 3 Hmm Not really. The truth about RTS is that people lost interest in them because of a big reason, the games got smaller and smaller, the maps, the units quantity, the map size, even you don't see strategy games that often that you bui
[quote who="Adridos" reply="1" id="3533195"] So was Planetary Annihilation. :^) !spoiler! Seriously though, the game has far from the successful finish line. A game that is simply technically impressive and done by a passionate team isn't an assured smash hit that will amass a massive cult following. RTS games simply don't work that way which is probably one of the main reasons why so few actually attempt making them.!/spoiler! [/quote] Hmm Not rea
