    Exciting!

    Although admittedly it doesn't look like it's going to add much fresh blood to the genre...

    Actually, I'd say
    Copious amounts of blood
    Will be involved here

    Don't let The Man get you down, Tycho. Stick with just haiku. (:

    This will be awesome...but I'm not sure I can go back to handling loads of individual units after recent RTSs. I hope they'll avoid that side of it. (While the article mentions that you can increase priority by repeated clicking, that doesn't neccessarily mean that I won't have to fiddle around with groups.)

    Suuuuperb. This looks like incredible fun, and hopefully it will have some of the genius that made TA so good.

    Esuna, you must have been the kid who told on other kids for skipping classes, or for not doing there homework. i can just see you sticking your hand up in class and going "but teacher, you forgot about our homework!"

    WHY CANT YOU JUST ENJOY IT.

    It's <i>so beautiful</i> and you want to take this away from us/other people? EVIL!

    Doesn't matter, you'r still negatively marked in The Big Book of Gaming for expressing your dislike for TA. it's a scientifici fact.


    Also, i still play TA to this day, and now they're making a "spiritual succesor" eh? I couldn't have asked for a better way to wake up today. mhmm. sexy. I cant wait to get one of those big spider tanks to walk all over somebodies base. bewm bewm crush! blam! wheeeeee!
  • AlienCowAlienCow Join Date: 2003-09-20 Member: 21040Members
    I must say it looks extremely 2D...sort of along the lines of the Red Alert voxels and all that malarkey. I suppose with the scale its on thats perfectly understandable.

    Still, kickarsical as I said earlier.

    I have to say that when I first saw HL2 I shouted of joy, but when I read this I couldn't utter a sound. I actually got tears in my eyes. <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/nerd-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
    Did I say I love TA? I will most definately love this even more.

    I was going to post this, but I figured there were already some TAers on this forum.

    Hey, it's Derek Smart: The Game!
  • Rapier7Rapier7 Join Date: 2004-02-05 Member: 26108Members
    Never.

    Ever.

    Compare Chris Taylor (We in the TA community like to call him ChrisT) to Derek Smart.

    If he didn't want to be compared with Derek Smart, he wouldn't have named his game after him. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Seriously, what the hell were they thinking when they decided to call it Supreme Commander? Derek Smart jokes aside, did they not notice that it would abbreviate to "SC"? Do they not see the problems that would arise from this? Add that to the fact that it's just plain bad (well, at least it's not Divine Divinity) and you've got one of the worst choices for a name ever.

    It's really an inside title for those who've played TA before. Supreme Commander was the highest rank you could get.
