The game has everything that you see, but it also doesn't have many things that you'd expect an RTS game to have. The game is in a pretty rough state, and despite having some fun with it I can't say I love it right now. Having played a few commander matches, the path finding is so fkin bad you have to constantly babysit units. You will frequently find your harvester stuck on the refinery repeatedly headbutting it and not figuring out how to drop resources off. Also, there's no unit orders you'd expect an RTS to have. Attack move, hold position, etc. I'm pretty sure I couldn't even tell a unit to pick a direct target. If you build a couple units you'll also frequently find vehicles stuck on each other driving head to head and getting gridlocked, and then you have to babysit them one by one to get them un stuck. This happens so often the game feels bad to play as an rts. The build order is also quite cooked. You kinda end up getting a refinery first (fine) then just dumping all your r...

The game is fun by all normal accounts its just suffering from what seems like lack of direction and solid effort all we have received in the last year is just optimizations which is fine I guess, but not when you're game uses mostly repurposed assets, their is some models i havent seen in any other game but tha fact remains the game is suffering from lack of content
Not to bad to start. Quote: "Remember Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, the Life. Probably worth a google?"
playing moded game whit Omega! is great!
A very stunning game with it's own unique world and lore. Each time I load into a match, I fall in love with the scenery and design on the game. However, it is early access, and there are some things that need some work. Firstly the RTS. Although it has it's ground for the classical RTS style, the system needs some tweaks. This would mainly centralise on the units and the way units are selected and put into formation. It would be amazing if their was an option to move units into a triangle or a line etc. (btw i haven't messed around with the unit groups, unsure what they do). Furthermore the free cam needs work. Unless it's just me, I would enjoy a free cam, that I could both place units and buildings down with. More freedom to move the camera around is all I ask, that way players can enjoy the wonderful fighting and command the ground. The AI path finding could also do with some work. It functions, (most of the time), however I feel like my units are needing to be checked all the t...
