Maulers are going to be "fixed" in the next update. pathfinding has been flaky from the start and it seems that units like to go trough from high ground. This can be easily replicated in the small 2 player Fringe where units decide to go over the small hills on the sides of the map. Targeting has never really worked and it is kind of a crapshoot atm, usually buildings will get targeted but there are times when they cant be targeted for some reason. I actually lost a ranked match because

[quote who="lilosmith" reply="8" id="3625433"] Waza, take it slow. I felt that way as well, but so far it has been a good journey. I got really stroppy as well. For relaxation, I watch the planes fly around and bomb things. [/quote] I do not mean to be rude to anyone. I have simply voiced my conserns and I should add that it is not the balance of the game I am worried about.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="6" id="3625421"] Welcome to beta testing, Waza. If balance worries enough to report "The game is broken" (in other thread) you should probably wait until release. Right now we're focusing on stability, optimization. [/quote] No need to take it personally but its true. The game is in pretty bad shape for it to be released in two weeks time. You need to put a lot of effort into it.

Hopefully yes.. Game is so broken atm.

I think its the latest patch. I haven't played for little while. But founders get patches early and I think they do most of the QA work.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="1" id="3625397"] weve nerfed them internally. [/quote] How did something like that get past the QA? 1 mauler in a Substrate army can take out all of the T2s on PHC army unless there is enough nemesis and you get lucky with targeting.. I just played a game vs much lower ranked substrate player who just spammed T2s and dreads and almost beat me despite my superior numbers. For some reason his maulers decid

Currently maulers are insanely powerful. Even one of them can kill a dread in seconds.

So steam servers simply act as a network node?. Is the AI calculated on the hosts PC or in steam servers?

Nice article but I'm not sure you are allowed to copy paste it here. Atleast mark the source very cleary.

I think that was ctrl+click on unit that locks the camera to follow mode. I haven't found a key to release it. Only way is to use control group. I could be one of the F1-12 keys that releases it.

I would like to see couple second delay on the start too. 3 seconds should be enough to stabilize the game. Sometimes I get bad stutter in the start of the match which makes click and key press not to register.

good point :D Many of my friends are matching with players now. I still match with bots.

yay

Maybe it had no room to move any other direction so it just levitated higher :D

[quote who="Ekko_Tek" reply="5" id="3623213"] Quoting Frogboy, reply 1 We plan to add an option to let players have more precision in matchmaking (i.e. that it'll wait forever if necessary). However, bear in mind, that in ranked, it will not place a rank 3 player against say a rank 7 player no matter what. &

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="1" id="3623141"] However, bear in mind, that in ranked, it will not place a rank 3 player against say a rank 7 player no matter what. [/quote] Why not? maybe have the lower rank player get more points and the higher rank player not to lose points unless he is playing someone in the top 10, 20 or 30. That should crop out any flukes. But yes that explains a lot.

The lack of players playing ladder matches isannoying but obviously there are people playing. Right now there is atleast 4 people from the top 10 playing games and everyone is playing bots. I think ladder matches should have an option to allow searching vs players only. It would also be cool to see how many players are playing ranked in active matches and how many are searching matches.

Disable steam FPS counter

If you build outside of owned node your buildings will start to slowly take damage.

At this point I would recommend running windows installation repair tool and also repairing visual c++ 2012 installation. To perform system scan for corrupted system files open command prompt as administrator use the search function to search for cmd, right click the program and open as admin. in the console type "sfc /scannow" without quotes. This will take a while to complete.

It already takes like 10 minutes to move from one edge to the other in larger maps [e digicons]X([/e]

Why dont you play warzone then?

Dreadnoughts have very specific roles in battles. Something like area control dread will deal with tier 1 units with relative ease while the heavy hitting anti dread/building dreads deal better with T2/buildings/other dreads. You will need to have a supporting army with proper compostion to have the dread be effective.
