Well, I tried out this sequel expecting pretty much the same thing as SupCom:FA or maybe an improvement in some aspects, but damn was I wrong, this isn't even remotely close to the awesome gameplay that the first ones in the series had, everything is pretty much dumbed down to the point of over simplification for the console kids.

• Cheating AI is like easy on the first one.
• No LAN support, wtf fail.
• Amazingly poor texture quality (on maxed out settings it looks like low on SupCom: FA
• MMOfag level up system to get new research by spending the points you earn in a select skill tree.
• Still no attack-move.
• Where are my dragonteeth?
• No Upgradable buildings? just waste more skillpoints into the structures tree YAY.
• Shallow gameplay is shallow.

tl;dr version, game looks like shit, plays like shit, has the worst mechanics of any rts in the past 5 years, and costs $50.

well I think we can thank square enix for that, getting their grubby paws on this Massive RTS, honestly looking at the units with the new graphics, was like playing wow with robots.
I agree with you shadow, this game was a hard fail, big time let down.
and for the record Forged Alliance with maxed setting= holy sh*t beautiful RTS.

i picked it up hoping to play with a few friends and i can't connect to them for some f*cking reason...i had one of them check which servers they could see and compare them to the ones i could see and the list was completely different so i don't know what the f*ck the problem is....

Nothing to see here, going back to starcraft 2 beta :P

if anybody liked the original+addon, they will most likely grow bored of this one very fast.

Yeah I played 1 level on the demo, and I said the same things as you did pretty much. Huge disappointment.

The story is hilariously bad though (from that 1 level in the demo):

Guy: "Great job Commnader, you're awesome!"

Guy: "Alright Commander, you're going to liberate city bla from the Aeon!"

Commander: "Oh noes, my family is in city bla!"

Guy: "Don't worry commander, we'll save them from the Aeon!"

Commander: "But sir, my family IS Aeon"

Guy: "What? How did we not know that? You're fired!"

Mission End

Man, I was ROFLing for at least 10 minutes.

lol game isn't about the campaign

[DarkShadow]

this game is just about as much the campaign / skirmish missions to kill time like it is the multiplayer and they are sadly both a giant letdown.
