Went to replay this oldie so I thought why not make a thread.https://youtu.be/xh3LZgx76yI?si=shIpYOEAylxrYnNz
>>1753873I remember this having a gamebraking lag spike in a cave mission.
>>1754502>halfway between syrian warfare/terminator and act of war.This is spot on.
>>1753873I remember buying this game and it wouldn't boot.
>>1753873I remember having a demo to either this or maybe it's sequel and being REALLY impressed by units I bought being low alltitude dropped from a C-130 onto an airfield.
>>1759463Look for a review on Steam that mentions how you can fix it. It's something about Nvidia Phiysx
Is there a better Star Wars strategy game?
>>1759324The three available factions on release will be the Republic, the sith empire and the mandalorians. I think Corey also said that they want to add the hutts in the future, but not at first.
>>1754710Gladiator all day
>>1756515>Calling the Praetor uglyYou are NOT my nigga.
>>1756515Would happily eat that ’zah
>>1759324Hutts are going to be an inactive faction this patch cycle, but Corey plans to make them an active faction later. The problem is that the devs have to make new assets for the Hutts, and the Mandalorians, Republic, and Sith are already a lot of work to create full rosters for.
Is Workers & Resources a city builder or an autismo logistics simulator?
>>1755665Why does the small prison have better worker ratios than the normal one?The balance is fucking weird.
>>1755910>Small prison: 45 prisoners / 15 workers = 3>Large prison: 210 prisoners / 70 workers = 3What did he mean by this?>>1755821>t. conveyor main
Maybe he's unknowingly using a mod small prison from back when there wasn't a vanilla small prison.
>>1756148Or maybe I can't count, ever consider that?
>>1756151I understand, division is hard.
Will you finally buy it?https://store.steampowered.com/app/1575940/Sins_of_a_Solar_Empire_II/
>>1758307you ever notice how companies only try to distract the other guy with blue hair women but never try to distract you with anything
>>1758310Companies distract me by putting sexy anime ladies in them. They can pretty much fuck me any way they like when they do that.
>>1758307Ok. Anyways,Just imagine someone like Jack Thompson actually managing to get GTA banned forever, and then suddenly dies of a heart attack 3 days later on a live interview. People would freak out, but all the GTA fans would have celebrated.
>>1758313There would be GIFS of his heart attack back to back and everyone going LMAO
I decided to try the free version and, while it doesn't seem bad, my god does the UI suck cockit's so fucking ugly it actively drains my will to play it
>the median /vst/er wants a single-player experience, balanced multiplayer, large-scale battles except where everything is close to the front, good graphics that aren't a selling point, and an enormous amount of content except when they have to pay for it, and hates arcadey gameplay except when realism is less fun and frankly, is that too much to ask for from one developer?
>>1754952The contradiction is because different people want different things. Treating any group as a bloc has always been a pro-retard move.
>>1754934Hey that's AoE2Looks like strategy games were solved in 1999
>>1754934Different segments of the population want different things THOUGH
>>1754934>the median voter wants double-digit deflationStopped reading there, the median voter wants 3% or lower inflation (which isn't contradictory with a "booming economy" nor with a tight labour market); a double digit deflationary economy would stagnate harder than the japanese did.
>>1754934People want lots of things, they never said they were one person or that they think it's realistic.I want a hot 16 year old to gift me a trillion dollars and her hymen, but I don't see people complaining about it, so that sounds like a you problem.
Spore is a strategy game... right?
>>1755892reading what he did after maxis not so sure if it was EA that shit all over it2018 some mobile game announcement and the game is still not releasedin 2023 some NFT gamelmao
>>1756288you should be able to do some very interesting things with simulation now that AI has advanced, but not sure if you could do it within a budget of a game like this
>>1755782it's baby's first strategy game
>>1758497People love to assume a single guy is responsible for a game being good or bad when it's made by a team of people.Think of it more like football than movies. Everyone has to work together and big teams often involve a lot of different directors for different parts of the game.Either way, shit happened during development of Spore and it was supposed to be something much, MUCH grander. Not to mention how fucking underbaked that shitty space stage is.
>>1755892I remember watching the National Geographic show on it and being super hyped. Never even bought a video game before that point.
Why don't we have SC2 generals? People still play this game. We're not dead, right?
https://www.twitch.tv/sofiiiiagomezin in in
speaking of tgirls i saw quite a few at the mall today
>>1759269we're watching the bruins game man
>>1759272Cool story bro, nobody cares.
>>1747673>Death to all the traitors "players" who don´t want to play RTSs anymore.
What is a good and flavourful set up to use for dark elves?
>>1751432Warlock
>>1750463
am I getting bad RNG or do base-stat spells do fuck all against anything? I just cast Fire Bolt on some spearmen and they didn't even notice.
>>1755458a fully charged firebolt can kill a unit of spearmen if you are extremely lucky, if they are veteran or above its basically not gonna happen tho
>>1755458fire bolt is basic spell, spells have the same rule as normal damage aka 30% hit chance (unless its something like chaos bolt) and get reduced by armor, when hitting multi figure unit its better to use something like fire ball cause it hits all units at once
Does the singleplayer campaign still hold up after all these years? I just realized I have RoC+TFT discs from more than 15 years ago yet haven't played the game except for a few matches at an internet cafe.
>>1654362I can get a match in seconds on "gold/plat".
>>1757593But my favorite streamer doesn't play it so that means it's dead
I've replayed the campaigns recently and loved it. I usually play SC2 but am interested in doing WC3 ladder. Is it possible to get into as a new player or will it be like Brood War where all I can do is get stomped by people who have been playing for 20 years?
>>1748000>co-op with a friend on voice and on insane difficultyHow the hell can you manage that? I can easily beat insane AI in 1v1s etc but the co-op campaign was kicking our asses on hard. I can't think of any amount of extra micro or macro that would save us on insane difficulty in the harder missions of Frozen Throne.
>>1757682Understandable. My favorite streamer plays it so it's a pretty good game.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpNgpAyOxD8
By the will of Kou Shibusawa, the latest Koei thread begins anew!
>>1756573Is that basically 4(full game) + XLAlso, 8 remake news please KOEI
>>1756309Agree. Though, amusingly, that game suffered from still having a few empty provinces here and there as well.
>>1756926agreeit really wasn't finished, like few dlc and it could be really goodnot great as the character and unit system with retinues was half baked and should borrow more from RoTK
Watching 3k(2010)Its really good, I was playing games before(3k and few RoTK) and watched some other media and read some stuff but it really make me rethink my opinions of some characters
>>1756573I hope they just shadow drops old gems like Dynasty Tactics or Kessen like this too. More people should be aware of those masterpieces.>>1756806No, it's just the original SW4 plus all its DLCs. The "expansion", 4-II, was already on Steam ages ago.
>best rts ever made is open source
>best rts ever made is an uninspired half-assed TA clone with "QoL"yeah no
>>1758613>>1758633Grow up.
>>1758852> Grow up.
Compared to BAR it actually has a campaign mode. But if you expect comfy turtling, you're wrong. The enemy is diabolically aggressive, base defenses are completely worthless, and you get merciless secondary objectives like 'destroy [x buildings] in six minutes', making the game very hectic and micro-intensive. I guess it's meant to groom players for multiplayer, but it sure makes things harsh.Also, what's up with the resource costs? Everything costs the same amount of metal and energy - why even have two separate resources? If it was just the metal, the game would be immediately debloated and more enjoyable. These costs also mean that you're always short on metal, and there are no metal makers in the game whatsoever. It plays nothing like TA is what I'm saying.
>>1758599Why would I play this when FAF exists? Zero k is smaller scale, ugly, and less qol features
Are they gonna kill him off?I’m hoping they don’t since they could do a lot with the character
I wonder if the Anon who's grandma painted those pictures of the Library, Blue Reverberation and Crying Children is playing Limbus. I especially wonder if their grandma made any more paintings, they were very good
>>1756035Can you post them?This sounds really cute
Ayin lost
>>1758824...the losers competition.
>>1758827And won the even bigger losers competition.
Who are you guys gonna main? The new antagonist is kinda mid, farquaad was much better.Anyways for me it's the donkey kiith>fighters with kamikaze specialty>sturdy but slow and lightly armed corvettes>support frigate pilots keep making funny mouth noises when clickedalways all grey colorset but these assholes make you pay for engine trail colors in Far Far Away Access DLC
>>1759510all I know is that it seems like Homeorld 2 again - the gameplay is really really good and story is very decent, although a comma is missing from one sentence.
What is it about the pike & shot era that scares strategy game devs so much? Literally more strategy games have been set in the Bronze Age than in the pike & shot era.
>>1758485
i love playing as the ottomans in pike and shot but they are the only faction that dont have any troops actually armed with pikes. did they never field pike formations irl?
>>1735204I see this guy's art everywhere but I can't find his actual name. Can I get a sauce?
>>1759503no
>>1758548ottomans were more of cavalry faction
post your aesthetic germanias you formed in vic2
>>1756932Are some of those screenshots from East vs West?
>>1755518lmao kevin spacey why the fuck do these memes always have the most random shit in them?
