Find the Torunament on Gamespot. The last battle is an eye opener and it's really interesting to see how the top three players play.

Check it out.

Porc hardcore, get to lv3 build superunits = win


Sumcom's single player is a lot of fun, the balance for multiplayer makes me wanna stab CT with a usb cable.

dont forget the price of labs. they are dirt cheap costing less than a t1 pd and as much as 2 t1 engis. just fyi. It opened my eyes a lot

Oh and same for the upgrade to t2, it isnt that expensive. experiment

[Zoombie]

It's really frustrating to only see one side of a conversation...

[Zpock]

Throw the game in the trash bin...

your mind set,

supcom sucks.

what your trying to acomplish

peace of mind (and CPU)

perhaps you should ask on a supreme commander board for intelligent responses.

FA, believe it or not, a single individual in a company of dozens is not wholly responsible for flaws in a product. Try actually making something sometime. To find every error in any product of any kind is impossible. If even I, talentless hack that I am, can make a mod that captures the attention of thousands of people for hundreds of hours, surely you could at least, eh... well, do you have any skills besides complaining?

You recently said, "CT hasn't learned anything about balance since TA"... well guess what. Modders get to spend a fair bit of time doing nothing but balancing. In my case, balancing alone was about 60% of everything I did. Developers cannot allocate their entire development cycle to working on unit balance. Every now and again, while they're building an entire engine, unprecedented in scale and flexibility, from scratch, in a limited timeframe, with two different publishers with different standards, things besides balance pop up they need to spend a couple of minutes on those things too.

Get out of your fantasy world where you say "let's have a completely new RTS, and let's make it balanced, bug free, and perfect in every other regard, and let's have it completely finished in two years", and a bubble pops and magical fairies sing and voila, there's your game. Real people who do real work have dates when things have to be done, whether they're finished or not. You need a playable alpha by X date, says the publisher, or we'll find someone else who can. You need a beta by X date, or we'll find someone who can. No, you can't spend your entire development budget on balancing, we need you to make a game that will actually sell more than 5,000 copies. It's gotta be pretty with lots of shiny things and explosions. Also we want you to make a few trailers. By the way, how about a big publicity campaign with developer diaries, a couple E3 presentations, a beta period, and launch by this day or we'll find someone who can. Need patch 1 by this date or we'll cut you off. Patch 2 by this date. WHAT? You want to work on balance? No, we need you to work on making the game compatible with the guy who's got a Pentium 28 and a Geforce 9700 GTS PRO XTX Xtreme OC with hyperthreading. Patch 3 by this date. OK that's all we're paying you for. Bye. ... who are you again? What have you done for me recently? You want to make a balance-only patch? Go to hell, we've never heard of "GPG".

[BlackLiger]

Um, tro....

We kinda do have people who play supcom here, such as me.

Oh, and to the OP: My most major advice - You can build multiple factories for a reason.
