Until recently we didn't even have an option besides just accepting metal, energy and mexes as our econ because SPRING IS HARDCODED FOR THAT SILLYNESS. You make it sound like we used E/M, mex, etc because we liked the idea, we did because there was NO OTHER WAY TO GET ECON IN SPRING. If Spring had the option for control points like most RTSes do these days you could bet your testicles that most non-TA mods would use them over mexes because mexes are a goddamn pain in the ass. What kind of army would place 50 little unarmed buildings all over a map in order to capture terrain? What kind of sillyness is it to force the player to send cons and make silly little buildings to mark his territory when the game is supposed to be about WW2 or whatever the source material is? Have you heard of armies in WW2 building ore mines everywhere to build their armies? Most of us DON'T WANT MEXES BECAUSE MEXES SUCK. We just want some form of territory control and the only way that could be done in Spring was to use those retarded mexes!
THE BEST POST IN THIS THREAD!

YOU DID NOT HAVE A CHOICE
ok i might be exagarrating the point now.
BUT, as you said, you did not have a choice. did optimus prime make a resource system that was something like homeworld where harvesters mine asteroids?
Did fang do a mod where he collects different resources with a harvester?
have the CA devs made a commander that has skills like wc3 heroes?
does any unit have a inventory yet?
does any unit have a aura?
NO
Spring engine is geared from the core to be ta 2.0
dont you think the s44 guys would want something else than a hacky workaround of energy to be used as supplies?
this is the reason i baww on the forums smoth, not because you suck(you do lulz but thats not the reason i cry on the forum) but rather that people would get their head up their ass and take a look at spring.
IT IS EFFECTIVELY TA
everything inside this thing is geared to run content from the game total annihilation.
dont believe me?
We need more people like kdr11.
fuck i almost want to punch him from jealousy. He didnt come here to bitch and complain, but instead he decided to show us all and make a fucking new resource system that has jack shit to do with total annihilation(might be wrong here again lols)
if you really want to call this thing a engine you need to wake up and do shit like kdr just did, even if it is just to fucking throw me back at my cave.
spring needs more people like kdr and SJ and less people who bitch and moan(including me)
