Finally a thread that is constructive on the issue of 3v3s and 4v4s. That infact analyses what people say...

1v1&2v2 OK / who plays?? -> Pro's and Team's
3v3&4v4 NOT OK / who plays?? -> average gamer


Now people complained about KTs and other strong units and I have to say... Watch the DeveloperVideos they will state that the OKW was desiged to be a "small and specialised force" (example no medium tanks) and the US "a mobile force that will bend but not break". From a developer point of view (my personal impression) the factions work as they should and are balanced since the numbers in the top100 suggest so. Thats where it gets tricky...


StephennJF explained how to kill a KT.

Doable for "above average" Gamer -> Yes
Doable for "average" Gamer -> Maybe (rather no)
Doable for "Noob" -> NO (Sending KT with AttackMove across the map YES)

The main problem I guess is the difficulty or plain and simple the apm (actions/minute) it takes to controll an army effectively.

For all of you people who now will say -> L2P
People have a certain limit of skill with a certain time investment... if you can afford to play alot you will be better but if you can't, you will suck at least with a apm intesive army (more units -> Allies).

I acctially will stop with the listing of facts or impressions from this thread since i have to get up today^^

Conclusion:

Great Game. Balanced. APM Intensive.

The "pro" player will enjoy this game because it is fun, fair and has a competetive nature.

The casuall player will enjoy the game to a certain extend and this would be the single player, since if you want to play in multiplayer with the allied factions you will need a better micro and more micro = more apm = more time and as we all know time is money. With the point time we are at a crucial marketing strategy point in many MMORPGs (WoW). It might sound disturbing for people to compare a RTS to a MMO but it is only the time factor that is relevant. Blizzard already has done the transishion over to the user who wants to sit down for 1-2h play a few games and go out. Steam as well -> SteamApp. Further on Relic/Sega also reflect the position that the true potential of this game for the average customer (biggest group with the most money) doesn't lie with in the multiplayer by bringing us a whole new campaign...(ObserverMode, where are you??)


(Long Version for Campaign: Relic has investet more time and most important, more MONEY to produce an extensive single player content with a rpg nature and a permadeath option. Which obsviously should cover development and ongoing costs.)

Hope you enjoyed that what ever^^

and dont haunt me on my spelling XD

Can we just move on? Dirty Deuces is never online when we are online and we don't really care if we finish 1st or 2nd in our group.

Ok, Dirty Deuces will be first and you will be second. Won't mater in the long run

Congratulation to all who made it to the Last Sixteen.


Explaination of the decisions who got to the Last Sixteen:

Group1: The Replays are to old (RELIC FIX THIS) so i can't see who lost with the most VPs. For that reason "Double D's" signed up first so they are 2nd of the Group.

Group2: Ezy as Pi forfeit a game so only 3rd place since Brothers played 2 games.

Group3: Extended Deadline due to special request.

Group4: Direct confrontation -> Blancat Elite Wins vs Spezialeinheit

90377 Sedna Tigers have resigned from the tournament due too time issues.

Hey guys,
can someone please explain what advantage I get, if I veto first?!

actually there is non good point XD
