Hi to all!

I just watched nuke video from AA: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6udIo5Sm ... re=related

It is beautiful! Why BA has not such animation?

Because I imagine it would nuke low end computers

But that is a really nice CEG.

Currently I often see when after nuke people asking: was it a nuke? It is unclear currently: what happends? why base blowed?

True, there should be something to show it was a nuke.

radiation symbols? like sim city?

cmon, c&c2 have even a better animation than the nuke of ba

:) On new DSD rev. there will be some new animations, and some changes like decreasing by 10 - 15% energy and metal cost for t1 units.

Also limitations because of spammers, something like 60 units limit for each cheap spammer units like scouts ak.peewe

dsd is a whole separate game

Senna, do you mean: in new DSD will be easy to understand that it was a nuke?
There will be a new nuke animation?

Yes

First of it is not an animation when then CEG -
Also this effects is very old and IIRC still used by old CA for very long time no idea about Zero-K I assume it it still so.

Yes, Zero-k uses beautiful nuke animation. I see it today.


If it works for zero-k, it should work for BA too

This was made by Quantum, for CA. 'AA' (Nixa's version?) nicked it and branded it and people STILL call it the 'AA' nuke- credit where appropriate please: that is Quant's nuke!

And yeah, it's the nuke in Zero-K, which means it's free to nick for whatever purposes. One problem though is that it obscures vision of the area for a fairly significant time (This is so there is no guessing about whether it is a nuke or not- it's impossible to miss).

It doesn't kill PC's, I don't know how quant did it but its actually -really- efficient. The default nuke is worse for PC's (At least last time i played, there was always a short lag burst on comm deaths or nukes- which I admit was quite a while ago).
