CA's new feature

[Gota]

Guess now i wont have to make that tough choice between arm and core.

[Neddie]

Yeah, Core looks modern and Arm looks like... hurm... 1997. I don't think the outliner does the units any favours, however, Other.

[Quanto042]

Zoomed out, the outliner looks awesome, but then again, i love cartoony games.

[manored]

The outline looks cool, but makes units lose their 3d fell...

Time is a logarithmic scale i presume? If it is not, it is a fatal flaw in understanding how things like this work. Also, the graph does not show the end of growth. If you play without enemies (just globaltestai thingy) and expand as hard as you can, you can see that the growth is indeed approximately exponential for a long while, i would expect it to be exponential with a growth based on mexes first, and then growth based on metal makers, until, finally the entire map is filled with fusions and metal makers.(But that is doing the experiment to the extreme.)

Ba economy indeed fails, not only because metal making is more efficient than it would be desirable, but also because then you invest in tech 2, its not just an economic investiment but a militar as well since tech 2 units are more efficient and varied than tech 1 units.

Excuse me.. but metal making economy is way too slow to be useful as a tactic. Beside the slowness of it causing growth, the actual metal maker buildings are also easily destroyed. It can be useful used aside or if extra territory is hard to come by.
And tech two is not overpowered, in any most games there are plenty of t1 battles before t2, and in good 1v1 games t2 is often not even reached.

now that uve rezzed the thread...

That is assuming nobody stops you from getting all the metal spots you want... if somebody does so, its often more efficient to chage to mm economy than to try to knock then off their hill...

There are plenty of battles before somebody hits tech 2 and wins the game :) Really BA games have their outcome largely decided by knowing the right time of teching up, what I find utterly dull.
