[quote who="RedDwarf999" reply="26" id="3661946"]You have made some valid points but the replayability I have experienced is the combo of mods and a random map generator in a single player mode. You don't need an infinite number of scenarios shipped with the game if they can be manufactured as needed. Also if a game you love becomes a little stale you walk away from it for awhile and come back when it feels like an old friend you have mistreated with your absence. Y

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="22" id="3661773"] Re air rushing, I have some thoughts on this that will go into the next balance update for the Substrate. [/quote] cool, im finally on leave so dont have to worry about people dying(so less stress), so i dont mind about air rushing but lets see how it goes [quote who="Never123" reply="18" id="3661751"] the Strategic Bomber is now nearly invulnerable... maybe you should check this??? but the substrade do

[quote who="AlphaApe1" reply="20" id="3661737"] Hey guys, i just wanted to point out that i made this thread because i like ashes and that it is the only RTS after the release of starcraft 2 which got my interest. I do know that ashes is a complete different game when you compare it to starcraft. But Ashes and supcom are going in the same direction. I like both types of rts games (i mean starcraft and games like supcom which are more macro orint

[quote who="AlphaApe1" reply="7" id="3661739"]@Quesocito Hey bro thx for your answer. I think that some points i pointed out also in other threads from me are missunderstood. I think we both see things clearer now. Have nice hollidays [e digicons]:)[/e] [/quote] yeah sure man, i think u have been quite clear. i just come across sounding worse than i mean to XD happy holidays as well!

[quote who="Ticktoc" reply="18" id="3661618"] Arguing with them because you are worried about the direction of Ashes? [/quote] ur right. im done. but the reason was this: air rushing. if u saw the discussion on the balance thread u should know what this is about.

[quote who="DasUnding" reply="15" id="3661705"] We can not even talk about balance at this moment while defense buildings do not shot and even with this strange behavior they are way too good. It can simply not be the case that a win or a lose is decided if your defense is willing or not to attack your opponent ... [/quote] fortunately ive never seen this happen except for when terrain blocked the shot. but i agree defenses do seem OP. and thats why it seems the game is beco

[quote who="RomeoReject" reply="23" id="3661647"] Please provide the name of it, please, because that sounds like something I'd love to pick up! Agreed so much. Grand campaigns provide so much more gameplay than a tailored campaign. I've played through Starcraft II's campaigns twice each (Haven't got LotV yet though). I've played through Dawn of War's... Gosh, dozens at least. A grand campaign just has so many moving par

@The Devs, I know it might sound lame but i would like to say i appreciate the small patch sizes. I play a lot of different games, and some of them end up with patches of up to 4GB, just for balance! Even Starcraft balance patches were rarely as small as Escalation balance patches. I really like that i dont need to plan my internet around Escalation updates. So, thanks!

[quote who="bbc6rgf57ytty5yxyw5gt" reply="12" id="3661563"]They had to take away a lot of it's effectiveness when it was discovered it was getting rid of most of the new players. I'm guessing it's just the Dominator that is used for the air rushes. Quite a lot of videos on Never's channel that I've watched have ended up in the opponent surrendering.[/quote] sounds about right. why should i learn to play a game when every match i pla

[quote who="bbc6rgf57ytty5yxyw5gt" reply="16" id="3661561"] I think any player of an average skill and up in FA needs micro to win. The game is surprisingly micro heavy. There's definitely macro in it but TAG Utter's examples are things you'd see used quite frequently in matches. There's lots of other uses of micro in the game. Ashes in comparison nearly plays itself. You are 100% correct in saying Starcraft has much more micro, FA is probably somewhe

[quote who="Ekko_Tek" reply="10" id="3661529"]The APM requirements are not very demanding. Maybe more than Sins of a Solar Empire but still less than most other RTS games. There is some micro in using air, workers, the Avatar but once you can manage the basic APM requirements, the skill differential comes about in balancing eco and military growth as efficiently as possible, having the right combinations of things in the right place at the right time (with good scouting helping you), and use

[quote who="TAG_Utter" reply="13" id="3661543"]. Im sure you notice i say both approach to micro... . Means when both SupCom and FA appoach to micro dont means they are 100% all micro. . Like im sure you notice i say my personal opinion... <br

[quote who="bbc6rgf57ytty5yxyw5gt" reply="11" id="3661515"] FA can actually be very micro heavy. Lots of high ranked players micro some of the units to get quite an advantage, dodge attacks from a unit etc.... Overall it is a macro game but it's unique in that macro and micro are integral parts of it. [/quote] yeah totally, there will almost always be aspects of micro or macro in games that are focused on the opposite, but by no means is FA focused on micro wh

@dwarf sins is great, i still think even now its great. there is a spiritual successor out in EA atm. [quote who="mikefacciola" reply="20" id="3661443"]I would also like to see the battlefield overhauled. The graphics in my opinion on the ground are nothing special and to new players the lines look silly [/quote] this would be nice to have improved. i also dont like having to go to strategic view to see where the next linked zone is. since the lines sometimes are no

cool ill try join it

[quote who="bbc6rgf57ytty5yxyw5gt" reply="6" id="3661440"]It's a fine balance they have, at one side they have to think of the multiplayer community and on the other the 97% of their player base. Are the orbital nullifiers working now or are they still bugged? [/quote] thats true, although I havent ever really seen the AI use the arty buildings. wonder if people would have more of an issue if while turtling vs AI they now had to suddenly contend with the AI&

[quote who="TAG_Utter" reply="9" id="3661450"]And none Supreeme Commander or Forged Aliance are Macro games, both approach to micro. I dont need to tell that for me Forged Aliance ( play Since TA to FAF today all days ) was and is almost a perfect RTS Epic battle game to multiplayer ( my personal opinion ) http://wiki.faforever.com/index.php?title=Learning_SupCom <

[quote who="edetamasan" reply="9" id="3660613"] So, in other words, are you telling me to buy Escalation, right?! After I bought this one, finished the campaign in about 15 hours and played 30 multiplayer ranked matches, shall I forget about it? And the money spent on it? I will buy Esca

[quote who="fantstc1" reply="6" id="3660626"]Don't encourage half-baked solutions. [e digicons]:)[/e] Should be done right. [e digicons]:)[/e] [/quote] yeah it would be good if the untis were more responsive, a hold ground, or defensive stance would be nice

[quote who="psychoak" reply="6" id="3661426"] I gotta say, the CNC series had terrible balance and a mediocre design. Which was hilarious since it only had two sides with lots of similarities and some really unique units thrown into the mix. His list may not be worth much to the typical RTS player(he needs to get out more if he really thinks those are the only good ones), but CNC ran off it's atmosphere, gameplay wise it wasn't much different from anything else.&

[quote who="AlphaApe1" reply="5" id="3661420"] @Quesocito Ok sorry. You are right im not that experienced in this game. I only wanted to point out that APM even do matter in macro games like Ashes. But I totally see your point. Can you tell me how this air rush strategy is excecuted (sorry im very new to the game and only interrested in the multiplaqyer part)? [/quote] no worries bro, sorry if i come across sounding aggressive. i generally dont realise how bad i s

u list 5 games. u say one is not ur cup of tea. 3 are tactically focused. 1 is strategically focussed. that makes it 1 out of the 5 games that are good according to u is strategically focussed. ONE out of FIVE. long time supported? ROFL. supcom is community supported. if u want to think like that then what about COH? AOE? if the CNC series was such garbage why was it so popular? ive played a ton of SC myself, and for the builk of players it comes down to mainly cheese

[quote who="AlphaApe1" reply="25" id="3661406"] You have the base game with early Access. You get Escalation for discounted Price. You will have to pay for the next expansion [/quote] no, dont jump to conclusions...the devs said they would give early adopters the DLC's for free. read OP's post.

[quote who="AlphaApe1" reply="3" id="3661401"] @Quesocito If you Play an RTS game. APM is important. It was in Supreme commander and it is here. This is the main difference between RTS and round strategy games. Also it is posible to defend air build defense and turtle! [/quote] please come back to me when u have fought a ranked match vs a prestige player that is rushing dominators. then tell me how it goes if u counter the dominators but they actually arent sent... as P

[quote who="Freyja_Bjorn" reply="1" id="3660634"]Did you think ranked would be slow and chill? [/quote] yes i thought ranked would be slow and chilled.. no, what i thought is the essence of the game would be carried through to ranked. this is not advertised as a micro intensive game, the very fact that we have the ability to create armies is an indication of that. we have no abilities, many units do not respond well to micro, changing facing, bad pathing, creep spawning, e
