I was looking at the forums today and i stambled apon this statement and since he doesnt have the time to look at the forums himself i thourght i would pass it on for him

SupComU: Have you had a look at the Spring project at all? If so, what do you think of it? The SY team has implemented innovations into their interface never seen in an RTS before either.

CT: I think that project is extraordinary, and we talked about it a lot over the years. That team is going to have a lot of fun modding SUPCOM.

Were doin good guys Hes impressed

well he couldnt really say 'Oh yea, Spring guys will love it, but they will stick with their own engine'. Doesnt make SupCom sound as cool.

any work I do in spring could be carried over to SUPCOM if I like it.

Is he saying that cause he'll sue us?

DeathHawk · Post by **DeathHawk** » 02 Feb 2006, 05:06

None of us dont even know what supcom will be like its not even in its alpha stage yet so how could we judge the game Now?

dont forget if it wasnt for chris taylor Total annihilation wouldnt even exsist and according to chris taylor Supcomm will have the same feel as TA anyways but hey were all intitaled to our own opinion

Seeing that screenies, I think Spring could produce them as well, with this new map format thingy, and dynamic lightning/shaders.. Would be awesome!

AF · Post by AF » 02 Feb 2006, 21:10

mwha, someone should recreate the shots fo supcom in the spring engine, only using Arm/Core, remodelling the entire races of a game we havent even got a full buildtree for would be silly. But the maps and features are very replicable, and would make a mockery fo supcom if released when a free rts game engine can produce similair if not better results.

Chocapic · Post by **Chocapic** » 02 Feb 2006, 22:31

honestly from the screenies and so i dont think supcomm is(is gonna be) the mega awesomeness that ppl tend to spread out there..

SupComm has a good financial backing. It is being created by professional game makers, artists, graphics designers, etc. It is headed by a person who headed an absolutely revolutionary game, which in many aspects has yet to be surpassed by another commercial endeavor.
Bottom line: It had better superior to Spring a ten-fold amount, or I'm just going to keep right along playing Spring, happy as can be.

Chocapic · Post by **Chocapic** » 03 Feb 2006, 03:41

well , ill be at spring watching, whatever the result is..
however i do realise a lot of ppl will quit playing spring to play supcom and that is inevitable.

Archangel of Death · Post by **Archangel of Death** » 03 Feb 2006, 08:02

Hmm, Supcom's naturally massive scale does lend itself to a nice b-tech mod (dropships are HUGE, and while that is possible in Spring, you still need maps big enough to place them on). But it will need to be able to do alot more than that to get me to stop playing Spring, including being able to do actual b-tech damage modelling (which once collision boxes with the ability to find out which box got hit are put in, Spring will be able to do nicely).
