Round 1 Cubit32 vs Babyant007: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fauCguoSTrY
Cubit32
I have another question, is the first round to be played out before march 31st, or all rounds all the way to the finals? I'm not sure I understood it all.
Me and Babyant007 have our matched scheduled for 20:00 GMT Tomorow (Saturday), ~28 hours from now. I'm hoping Zultar will be able to cast it.

how long in advance do we have to schedule our matches? Ie. I'm here, my opponent is here, we can broadcast and record, can we play right away?

there is no understanding cheaters. The decision to cheat comes from an ignorant and lazy mind that doesn't see how hollow empty meaningless victories are.
He's the host, as the host hacking is easy. I think dedicated servers will solve this issue eventually.
It's nearly impossible to sift some steam names out of the steam search engine, even when you know what their avatar picture is.
hold Z while watching over a clustered up web of buildings, you will clearly see the borders.
I would like this change just because its tongue in cheek
If you want to be very strict: Rockets that launch should start tilting over immediately because to get in orbit rockets need horizontal velocity, not vertical velocity. Even if rockets go for mars-escape velocity, going to orbit first is still the most efficient. They would also need to be launched into specific directions depending on the target orbit (let's just say pre-escape orbit). On earth rockets go up first because the lower atmosphere is too thick to go fast, Mars

this happens a couple times a day, I would appreciate a fix to this too
Late afternoon till late after midnight for Europe and early afternoon till midnight for America is generally the best time to look for games. When Europe/America is asleep or at work games are sparse.
I (Cubit32) agree with what Pbhead has said. I would like to add my own thoughts / analysis. Expansive is the best faction judging by my stats, I've won 73.8% of the games when I pick expansive (vs 62.6% overall). Scientific is my worst, even though some people think they are OP I cannot figure out a way to gain a dominating lead with them in almost any game partly just because it takes so long to upgrade and because glass production has a few minutes delay if it is far aw
It has been postulated by numerous players that replay recording causes lag. Now does it? In my experience it doesn't. I've had horrible lag with and without replays. My feeling is that it is an urban myth. I would like it if possible to permanently confirm or deny the replay lag hypothesis.
I'd also like to be able to use 4x power to produce 2x as much. I'd like power to be more versatile.
the tactic in Mantis' video is heavily reliant on other players not sabotaging you and having no idea about what you are doing. As such it is a good tactic to stomp public games with where there aren't players like pbhead, zultar or anyone else who knows how to scout and respond to what everyone else is doing. The upcoming patch will also nerf this particular tactic by making nanotech more expensive and making double shorting impossible.
I agree tigershawk. I think another way to put it is [Gameplay] >>> [Awesome Graphics & Audio], just look at chess and where it's at.
I think the mohawk policy is working, the community is being made of mostly dedicated fans due to the pricing policy.
Chat is buggy atm, I frequently see the host chatting with someone in the game of whom I don't see the chat. Probably some sort of connectivity issues of which I frequently get error messages.
Are the details all fleshed out? Have you picked a date / dates? the settings the FFAs will be played with, How the matches will be recorded and broadcast, and so on? Can anyone join? I request masquerade to be on, to prevent VIP Sniping.
I agree that the stock issue is a big problem. Buying someone out at one point or another becomes suicide. My win % with expansionist is by far the greatest at 78.7%. My win % win scientific is actually less than 50% and Robotic is at 55.5% though that is probably more due to playing a lot more with scientific in my early days than in my later days. Scavenger stands at 55.2%. Expansive to me feels by far the easiest to win with as long as there is at least 2 adjacent irons anywhere wi
I think maybe the engineering lab should give an instant production buff for the cost of chemicals that lasts for 30-60 sec and has a 30-60 sec cooldown. That may make it more viable.
The game right now is fairly predictable (save for random shortages / surpluses). Look around the map to see how many triangles and diamonds are producing (collections of 3+ structures) goods and you can know what is going to be cheap and what is not because people almost universally sell what they overproduce. Collections of 1-2 structures need not be considered because they are horribly inefficient. Life support and everything is going to rise in price due to demand from HQs and the c
