What gives?

Did this game even have good single player? All I ever played it was with friends on LAN parties. The expansion sucked by the way.
>>
>>737357449
How beginner friendly is this? I've never played RTS (I tried Dota but I suck, my main genre is 2d platformers)

If you're going to be playing online against other players then RTS is probably the least beginner friendly genre alive
Single player campaign or skirmish against bots should be fine on all fronts
>>
>>737357449
What a cool trailer.

forged alliance is super easy to get into
literally just look up the starter build options, there's only 3 of them and try it
if you just blindly fuck around you will likely not have a good time because you need to understand this aint star craft gook click, its all about keeping the factories cranking out murder robots.

To add to this anon's suggestions, you need to learn how to do some things fast, and others when they come up. 4 factories by 4 minutes is a good objective to shoot for to rush spam. Similarly, tech rushing, bomber rushing, and early commander upgrades can win you the early to mid game. Something you have to be able to counter is how many factories they're making, T2 point defense creep, T2 arty, and T2 missiles. Things like missiles require missile defense, and arty usually means building counter arty (or having enough strong units to push the base).

Also, make shields as soon as possible (this will largely affect your advancement time, but at least your mexes won't get bombed).

Remember to micro.

bro...just start simple, follow the starter guides because the start of every rts game is always the most important thing.
as long as you get the land factory and air factory starts down you can literally do anything in the game. ACU gun fights are fucking awesome but you wont be doing those unless you fucking practice the starting builds so you have energy+build power to rush GUN
stalling in supcom is fucking game over

RTS games are ruined for everyone by the autistic professional RTS players.

Oh the world champion who explains how to play the game better?

The trailer for this game made it look 50x better than what it actually was.
>>
>>737359178
I played it to death back in the day and never touched MP

When it comes to control in RTS games, Beyond All Reason is king.
>>
>>737357449
It is wild how Supcom is still the most innovative and arguably advanced rts game we've gotten.

Starcraft and it's consequences have been a disaster on the rts genre.
