Re: Name suggestions for the BA remake

I agree that there should be no reference to BA. It's a new game, needs a new name. That said, you all must realize that as the time goes by, more and more players are simply unaware of the fact that there was, in the late 90's, a game called total annihilation. So on the other hand, I would agree w...

Re: BA model replacements

Really nice screenshots and of course models.

As I am playing Zero-K for the time being, I am wondering if some of these models could be reused in ZK? I am not a dev at all but just out of curiosity...

Re: who is currently maintaining BA?

What is clear enough is that when a unit a nearly never used (eg guardians or other useless units), it means it has a big drawback somewhere and something must be tweaked to improve that...

Well, could it be possible to have at least a death confirmation, so as to not keep hoping for this project to be completed?

Re: Balanced Annihilation 7.50

Among the long games I happen to have seen or played, a good few of them were terminated by a lol cannon after many failed attempts to end them (t3 spam, bombers, and again and again). Superweapon such as the vulcain was clearly usefull here (not that the other team would.not try to resist as long a...

Re: Balanced Annihilation 7.50

There must be some kind of ├╝berweapon, otherwise, in some instances, games would never stop if teams are even and every weapon (even t3 ones) are too much balanced by another weapon. At some point, there must be a sure way to end the game, if players have let it to go so far (vulcan can only appear...

Re: BA model replacements

Woah don't take it like that, it was just a casual comment on the pict. To be precise, the two "barrels" located on the back tail of the plane are engines irl, whereas they are only decorative items here.

Re: Rudeness for newcomers

I agree, and also don't hesitate to reclaim outdated buildings when you get to the next level. Typically, when you have several ad solar, you can reclaim all of your basic solar plants since one ad is equivalent to 3 basics iirc. It frees m allowing you to continue building your eco or producing uni...

Re: Rudeness for newcomers

@epicentre : look at energy-metal converter, every con can build them.

And also instal a widget called "build costs", it really helps you manage your resources efficiently. It should btw be included in the default package imo.

Re: Balanced Annihilation 7.50

That damned vulcan costs over 40k metal to build, and almost 20k e to run. If you let your enemy build one, you must suffer the consequences. Agreed. In addition, when everything else failed (and it does happen when you have tons of AA and anti-nuke), there must be a way to end the game for sure. T...
