Supreme Commander Forged Alliance - An awesome RTS

Does anyone else play Supreme Commander?  Not the streamlined rush frenzy sequel, but the original supreme commander.  Its an awesome RTS game with a huge scale.  Age of Empires and SUPCOM are my two favorite RTS games of all times.  I’ve been playing it a lot recently due to SC’s server quality…  A few of us in GoD play it together and have some fun! 

 

Here is a quick hype video I made yesterday in my spare time of the game.

Agreed! I only bought the game recently afyer Jenkeze recommended it to me, and it has already become my favourite RTS, over Rome Total War and Age Of Empires (even ignoring the age difference).

The mods one of our corp mates recommended to us make it even more awesome!

It’s a shame my laptop slows down during the epic 800v800 unit battles…

I played this game and mastered it long time ago.

this game…i suck so much

Awesome!  Did you play competitively?  Most of the competitive games were just rushers… not very fun.  We like to build up and have epic battles.

Haha, It’s still fun though!

I prefer Sup Com 2

Its a good game, don’t get me wrong, I just prefer the original.  Its a lot more detailed and there are more strategies than rush with little variety in units.  It does certainly look more recent than the original.

Me too. Supreme Commander 2 reminds me of scaled version of original Supreme Commander and Forged Alliance.

I played for fun and was quite good at it.

I never liked tier rushers.

The original is the best. Planetary Annihilation is where its at now, awesome gameplay much better than anything Supreme Commander !

Planetary Annihilation? Might have to look into that…  Sounds like my type of game anyhow :smiley:

Did I mention you can destroy a planet by crashing an asteroid on it ? Yeah, pure destruction, awesome game !

Mmh, looks kinda “plasticky” if you know what I mean, as if the units were made out of lego blocks.  But the concept looks good

I dont like the cartoon style either but in this game its just perfect. Im an hardcore RTS fan, you shouldnt miss this one ! :slight_smile:

 

on a side note, its not that cartoony, trust me.

Yeah, maybe it’s just the video

Planetary annihilation’s concept is epic.  But yeah, like mill said, looks kinda goofy and the scale looks pretty unrealistic.  Haven’t played it yet though, so can’t say much.  May have to try it.

Planetary annihilation is on 80% sale, on steam, right now.

I backed them on kick starter for 100$, 80% off is an incredible deal, that game is worth much more. Check out the Dev team, they have other project on kick starter that are really amazing and look promising. Its Uber entertainment and their new project is called human ressource, the concept is unique and I am also backing that project ! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/659943965/human-resources-an-apocalyptic-rts-game

Human resources was cancelled 20th October, they were never gonna reach their funding target, so they wussed out.

 

Much of the problem stemmed from the fact that many felt they never got in full what was promised from PA, and still haven’t.

 

So it’s no surprise that Uber not fulfilling their promises, had an impact on what people where prepared to donate to them for a new game/set of promises.

 

That and the fact that players also felt Uber may withdraw support much sonner and focus on their new game… Kinds proves that teh overall fanbase is not so happy with Uber after all.

I hope I haven’t made a downer in your day !

 

I liked the look of Human Resources, and some of the idea that was laid out, but much of it reminded me of an old Sega/Petroglyph(ex-Westwood Studios - original CnC.Red Alert 2: Yuri’s Revenge etc) game, called Universe at War: Earth Assault.
