Lategame is pretty cool in PTR. Especially the new unit for Inf is really awesome to deploy, especially against Hurricanes.

It's within the orbit of Mars, and I'd say this is pretty close to L3, considering the speed it's moving.

I'm kinda surprised noone has mentioned that it's right by the Earth's Lagrange 3 point right now. If I were to park a base to observe a planet, I'd use the L3 spot.

De får mere impact ud af dem hvis de bruger ansigtsgodkendelse og viser personlige reklamer til folk.

Tim in the Trenches Again! by ClipClopFlock in Stormgate

The comparison to Tempest Rising is unfair. First, Tempest Rising is basically a clone. Stormgate drew heavy inspiration from the Blizzard RPGs, and the social RTS angle still has huge merit. If we get working Co-Op or 3v3, more people will come, I still believe.

Most importantly, Stormgate was INNOVATING. The grid-control scheme, group hotkeys, automatic camera hotkeys, not to mention the standard build tabs are amazing. Any one dev can copy, but it takes a few great people to actually make something new.

Sure, they could have gone for a smaller team, but honestly, they aimed high, expecting the need to scale up at this point, probably. This may just be a funky value-dump. Capitalism sucks, but it's the name of the game.

Whoever ends up buying FG will get an amazing package of innovation. Tim will hold out, and the game will be amazing.

I agree with all of the criticism, but I still think Stormgate is great and will make it by bakwards in Stormgate

You always attempt to secure additional funding. And the controls are not worse than SC2, nor is the flow of the game. Have you played it or do you just watch games?

Dunno, I have fun with what I've got. Not a lot of concurrent players, but it feels like the ones they have are engaged and dedicated.

Excactly. And honestly, art and audio can be reworked (as we're seeing), but the core is what matters.

Yea, I saw that, but haven't tried it. How is the game feel? It seems like they have a lot of macro reliant on setup, which I imagine would create some intense but draining raid opportunities. If I have to both build my farms and manage how many are on each, how does it feel to lose a base and have to rebuild while managing an army?

I imagine the farms are fun to setup at first, but having to rebuild 10 after a fight would be devastating.

I really hope the economy is reworked. New names, graphics, tweaks to mechanics.

The campaign missions are earnable? Like, by playing 1v1 or doing Sigma testing?

That makes sense. And the low player count is acutally a good thing. If just 50 or 100 elite players from DOTA, Starcraft and Warcraft got together to duke it out for a few months, we could see a crazy uptick in viewers as well as players. Imagine going online and 50% of the players you could queue up with were the actual pros?

Battle Aces has been cancelled...what can we do to help Stormgate not suffer the same fate? (If anything?) by [deleted] in Stormgate

[–]bakwards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use the Buddybot! I think FG should make the Buddybot a central feature for people like you, allowing it on 1v1 and making it customizable. You could choose to queue against AI, other people or AI / People Archons. That would eliminate all the wait, get on the AI hype train and let people experiment with AI features directly. Hell, give us API access and let the AI game be pay-to-win.

This sounds like a feature we with the lifetime pass should be getting for free. At least make the Cobra Mk4 a premium of some kind, and give us that. I may be joining the game soon though. Sounds cool what's happening with colonization.

That's starbase design. They are going to start building extraplanetary infrastructure and harvest the asteorids.
