haha, sounds like you need to stop sucking so much :p the game is nothing like that, and who plays singleplayer campaigns? yuk! most of the multiplay games dont last longer than 20 mins, and theres a load of troops. if youre taking 45 mins to get an army together you need more practice :)

That and the fact that the graphics were wasted on the game due to you having to spend 3/4 of your time in the zoomed out OMG16BITGFXMODE where everything reverts to blocks on the map :| |
that's what replays are for ;) supcom on my 32" tele looks insane :) |

HAHAHA! I never said I was good at it. I just don't see how the game's over in 20 minutes. You wouldn't have tier 2 units by then I'd imagine. You just rush basic units? What about those big experimental units that take a good 10-15 minutes to build?
Yeah, after the single player marathon.. never really bothered with it I guess :P

nope, thats T2 sometimes T3 units depending on the map. most games on 10km are won and lost at T2. not sure if youve been following the patches but a lot has changed since vanilla :)
experimentals take a bit of time sure, but that time is only limited by your economy. if a game goes to experimentals its prob closer to a 30-40 min game. but i like the variety.

well, i play the game on my tele so im already sitting there ;)
if you liked ANYTHING the game had to offer, keep an eye out for the expansion in november. apparently there are a lot of really good changes coming! plus 10 new units per faction, and a new race. |

I agree, if I was going to play Supcom I would stick to Multiplayer only. The only game Ive ever invested time in the Single Campaign is - COH. |

i just love skirmish. and MP obviously. but skirmish is where i start. i cant really get emotionally invested in an RTS story. i tried to play the first supcom campaign and it sucked, so i went back to skirmish :)
havent played an RTS campaign since warcraft 3. its never as exciting as a good skirmish. |

World in Conflict comes out in a week!
Quake Wars(or the demo anyways) played too much like BF2142. Between it , BF2 and Quake Wars.. seems they're starting to churn out the same crap, with a slightly different spin to it :( |
In my experience in the Beta and Demo - BF players get their ass handed to them. If the game was anything like BF, they wouldnt have a problem pwning it online. The game is more like RTCW:ET with Quake & UT infantry combat + Vehicles... than it is BF. |

These are my views on the game that I have played since early August.
I didnt know what the I was doing when I first started. I just relied on my aim - interestingly enough, aim alone only got me so far. So I started to do a bit of reading - and as I expected I was only scratching the surface.
You might have a different experience to me. :)
