Well, not just that. I'm sure he wants the insane commander metal corpse and the high experience gain from shooting a commander of a few AA versions before even that.

Commanders are easy enough to kill right now, why make it even easier by turning units that are intended to be the best anti-air units into ground attack just for killing commanders?

Just spam 10 flash tanks, rush them in a line behind the commander and then attack, the sooner you can spam those 10 flashes the easier it will be so gg.

In science fiction, technology is imagined which works within reality. It's not magic. Spring is reality-based in that the vehicles are made to exist in a world similar to our own, and so are expected to act in a way that is coherent with their appearance, size, construction etc. So, if you are to make (for instance) a giant hulking robot that has two foot thick steel paneling on the sides, it would move as you expect it would, and not fly through the air upside down at twice the speed of sound. Often, a reasonably aware 9 year old child will instinctively understand what I am saying.

Spring is reality based??? If I wanted I could have pink hearts flying around and killing stuff and Spring won't reject it.

Yes, obviously what I was saying is that the Spring engine is made to be a painstaking simulation of real life.

Or maybe I was saying that the units in the game are supposed to behave reasonably realistically, hence the reality-based thing.

In BA5.5, PLEASE remove the metal maker noises. I can't stand it when they keep turning on and off due to a MM script, because the sound is VERY loud and heavy on the bass.

Except yo momma last night

Sorry had to do it.

Anyway, yeah at least limit or soften the sound from the MMs.

Klavo, I actually blew out my other headphone speaker during that match.

Fang: 1
Metal Makers: 1

Just limit the number of instances or the volume. Please.

Turn down the max simultaneous sounds in spring options

This used to be a huge problem with like everything could be speaker-breakingly loud

Or players that micro units... It won't work 100% of the time but with 10 flash its usually easy work to kill an undefended commander.

Unless I run out of energy or am totally not paying any attention to my comm you will need at least 20 flash to kill me in BA. Micro is irrelevant, the comm can dgun like 5 times a second and if you lead his shots a player won't be able to out micro your balls of flaming death. Dgun blasts move like 4 times faster then flashtanks do.
