Repeat orders
Queueing units in factories whilst they are being built themselves
500 unit limit
haven't we seen this somewhere before? :D
anyway, looks awesome. Can't wait for this winter lol, great excuse to geek out and have some FAT 5 hr or so war with someone online or IRL :D

Wow what a copycat

Suprising that he also reduced the number of units. Last time it was 1000 pp I think. Apparently they're having a bit of trouble making everything datadriven AND fast...

Can't wait to see it though. I think my computer will have enough trouble rendering on one monitor, let alone on both at once.

Just wait for someone to bring out another Einheiten "as many as you want" patch for it. Y'know they will. And I'll bet anything Chris hides that unit max in the magic file "supcom.ini". :)

Very early next year.. I like to have some stuff sorted before that, pressure is on I guess.

he he

mwha, I wodner what next, area commands?

Supcom does have more than a few advantages over spring and vice versa, but i think that the main ones for Supcom are
1: Waypoint system (drool) and Pathing
2: Campaign
Any volunteers :D :D :D

I was considering passing classes next year but I guess i'll play supreme commander instead after watching that.


Four tech levels is a bit though


Just another thing to seperate out the I WANT THE KROGITH!! noobs out i spose

I was planning a mod with 4 tech levels and a more robust nuke game, but spring wasn't beefy enough for the nuke plans and there was alot of other things I wanted to do that are still impossible on spring.

im also hoping the super-modability he was talking about dosent lead to the kind of stupid crap that ruined battle net...but somehow I think LAZER DEFENCE FREE $$$ is an irresistable force when it comes to online RTS

I dunno, I really did enjoy all these tower wars and city wars in wc... very nice.

Maybe im just an elitist jerk

I doubt it, but you wouldn't be alone if you were.

Hopefully potential employers will respect the fact that I too played supreme commander instead of completing assignments.

We can only pray

Raises hand while doing uni course ^_^

i too will be playing this game when its Realesed ive read most of the Reviews and all the screenshots, Ive probly looked at the Supcom Trailer about a thousends times.

the game looks incredable, Spring looks just like it with the Rotateable camra and the stradegic view. i am interested in having a look at that Nooberheck because i hear its got the Monkey lord in it which will be crazy.

The only part of that video that gave me a not-so-good feeling, "Right now we are shooting for 500 units per player unit limit." Everything else looks really nice (Like a vision of spring in the future with nicer projectiles/models) :)

the burning of trees looked better than in spring too. (hint hint )

Fps mode in Supcom would be awesome.
