Def agree with that statement. However to me the best strategy games (minus zero k) are total annihilation inspired. Beyond all reason is amazing. The og ta with the escalation mod is perfect. But yeah sup com f a is hard to beat. I hope sanctuary has close to the unit variety that escalation has.

@grndiesel Жыл бұрын

@@austinstoner6270 The other thing is that Supcom had a very nice aesthetic to it. At least in my opinion. The ships, tanks, planes, landscape and water all just look good. I don't quite like the tac missile mechanic but that's a minor gripe. I played TA spring years ago and while impressive and with good mechanics, it didn't draw me in the same way.

I love me some FAF. The gameplay for FAF is incredible. But even with modern machines, the performance bottleneck is a real hindrance. If Sanctuary can nail the basic gameplay, UI/UX and the performance can scale, then I'd say that would be some even footing. You're right that will be quite the challenge. Balance can be refined over time. The modern graphics will definitely help things out

I REALLY REALLY hope that with the chassis system they add ways so the ACU can 1v1 an experimental and win. The thing I miss most from the early FAF days were when people played with mods. My best experiences in faf were playing old Blackops+ACU modded games, sinking all my resources into the ACU and having it take on armies of bricks, monkeys and loyalists. It added so much more complexity, strategy, and positioning to the game. I honestly though it should have been added to the core. The ACU isn't a 'hero unit' in faf its a baby toy, like seriously who enjoys sitting their com underwater and forgetting its even still around.

@DartNoobo Жыл бұрын

Yeah, it is definitely more complex when you need only one unit in a strategy game.

@Flanktank2 Жыл бұрын

@@DartNoobo Fair point but it's just an option. I mean people rush experimentals all day long in faf. So what's the difference in 30k mass into experimental units vs 30k mass into ACU upgrades?

Grand scale is something the RTS genre has been sadly missing for a long time (the excellent FAF and it's sibling LOUD being exceptions) .. instead it has been thevery similar games like Call to Arms and Company of Heroes that has been the norm... consollified games IMO (like SupCom 2). Or the frantic clickfest known as Starcraft 2. It's time for a change... let's bring Gyle and FAF into the global spotlight! (And hopefully Sanctuary will be a worthy reinvention of the genre). What I personally like about the grander games is the greater emphasis on well thought out and continuously evolving tactical and strategical decisions.

@MyriadColorsCM Жыл бұрын

tbh Zero-K has terrain deformation mechanics, also nukes (and com explosions) can create small lakes on the map in Beyond All Reason, so there that.

simpro is a rare thing implemented in rts and for a good reason that we see on faf - which is cpu bottlenecking. For one i absolutely love the chaos and possibility of microing units out of the enemy fire, on the other hand russian players throwing game into stellar -4 speed make me wanna quit. The hopeful resolve to this would be multithreading for cpu and i hope sanct devs do keep that in mind. Anyways i'm seeig forward to it, good material willow.

@@WillowsDuality You're orbiting at the same radius as earth, though, so you wouldn't 'fall off' and the energy wouldn't be any higher. If you weren't on the sun facing side, there wouldn't be any sunlight. Are they using reflecting mirrors? Unless it's comparatively small, you're at risk of flying into space (because you're orbiting, centrifugal force is what holds you to the inside)... unless it's not spinning, in which case it has to hold itself up and a nuke isn't nearly enough to damage it. And if it is comparatively small, that and also you have to deal with the heat in a surface area not much bigger than the sun (which means not much colder than the sun...)

@WillowsDuality Жыл бұрын

The sphere is using the sun's gravity. So it's much closer than Earth's orbit to get 1g of gravity. Too close to sustain life on the interior of the sphere. And yes they are using holes in the sphere and mirrors to produce a natural amount of sunlight

You’re supposed to have a *balanced* army. It’s not that it ain’t fair, it’s called strategy, and dedicating all your resources into a navy? Seems like a really poor strategy for them and a great thing for an opponent to take advantage of!
