Ashes of the Singularity: Escalation Pros: + You can expand very large which adds strategy. (flanks w/e) + Combat feels like traditional oldschool rts, (Starcraft) + Races feel different without being too overwhelming, + Map design is actually good. + Easy steam integration makes it quick to start games with people you know + Zoomed out strategic view Cons: - You can only create control groups, not add to them. - Can't control click to select all units of same type, only doubleclick - All units look fairly similar and are hard to find on your map unless you zoom all the way out - Mouse edge scrolling has a delay, feels laggy when it's not.
Great game with good balance. The graphics on the ultra setting I'm getting greater than 35fps. Its just that when it comes to the skirmish the player that has the most quanta and aggressively expands wins with the most upgrades. Does not matter the strength of the AI, the ai does not build quanta farms like I do.
the system is more or less the perfection of an RTS concept. i've only played the first segment so far, but there are some critical issues with the controls that i hope have been sorted out in later versions (adding units/structures to control groups, for instance). i'm also a bit worried the various factions all have too-similar units, but i've only played the first campaign so far. still, for a former competitive sc2 player, this is both a breath of fresh air and a true innovation. kudos!
I love it! It's like a better version of Supreme Commander games, where they fixed the whole aspect of it. I also am so glad there's no "Commander" building everything by himself. I love the giant spaceships, there should be even bigger ones. The only thing I would like to see in the game is perhaps an alien faction + 1-2 more factions. I love the idea of how you control nodes, connect them to each other, it is so simplified. They perfected the resource gathering strategy in my opinion. Looking forwards to the upcoming one I read it is going to look amazing and i'm hoping the new one will include at least one alien faction (maybe 2 I hope! maybe with Tripods too please! You know Universe at War - Earth Assault? I loved those giant alien units that could make units, grow parts, etc very cool) best RTS game i've played in years. I noticed some people complain about crashes (FIX): 1. you gotta make sure the game isn't on fast mode, sometimes it does that accidentally I think. 2. Use DirectX 12, and certain graphics settings bog it down check for those 3, game is big on CPU use so watch out for that. In conclusion, I actually love playing it more than Supreme Commander - Planetary Annihilation. I would absolutely recommend this game to anyone who likes Starcraft, Planetary Annihilation, and Earth 2160. 10/10
It's as close to a Supreme Commander that you can find from the past decade. That said, it tries it's best to not commit to being a successor by implementing a control point mechanic for resources. Overall, it's a fun skirmisher, but it lacks any ability to turtle on purpose (I like to turtle and break into shells!) Changes I would want: 1) faster juggernauts 2) better army pathing and attack logic (currently feels like units are pushed by a tide and leave range constantly) 3) allow us to abandon control points. Establish a generator & matter conversion ability to cover all resources with buildings 4) defensive buildings desperately need to be buffed and/or shield buildings 5) building queues. If I need 50 quantum buildings, let me click and drag placements for construction instead of building one at a time with a new command every time...
