Pick any on of those ffa replay: http://replays.admin-box.com/player/608 ... match_type most have a max far beyond 1k unit. I advise you watch games with Kuros so see how bad it can get :Dknorke wrote:If you really have a replay/screenshot of a player with "control thousand of units", please post.klapmongool wrote:Maybe you are right when talking about the average player, but you are wrong when it comes to BA in FFA or 'the best player in the team'. These players do hit high unit limits on a regular basis AND it forces these players to change their tactics.
Sometimes it happens that players must reclaim solars etc, replace with fusions when they reach unitlimit. Unitlimit on most hosts is 500 atm? The players still hardly have 500 controllable units in normal games. If someone was to make 300 peewees that would be quite special.
Maybe fighter swarms can reach such numbers: but one does not really controll or micro them.
Ofc you don't usually control thousand (even thousands) of unit, but it happens, especially on non-acidic map cause of eco-whore-see-vs-ground-balance of ba (see unit to take over ground suck being balanced by cheap underwater eco)
And when you need to do that (there are often 5k unit+ with good player on map like mearth), you just happy you can actaully macro your group unit and not just to crtl+A, click and wait 2 min fps goes back to normal...
