Supreme Commander Tournament

Not open for further replies.
If I can get enough players interested.......I will be holding a Supreme Commander tournament with possibly a cash prize ;)

I will need at least 16 players.


If you havnt played Supreme Commander before, then firstly, youre fucking retarded, and secondly, GET IT.
Its only like the best real time strategy game ever made.

Supreme Commander is the sequel to the original game "Total Annihilation" and what came before "Planetary Annihilation" ....... and is basically the best of the lot.

(Note this is NOT Supreme Commander 2, which is a bag of shit)

Reasons you should play it with us are......
  • Huge scale war with mechs, tanks, battleships, dogfights, nukes, tactical missiles, shields, pretty much anything you can think of....
  • Ridiculously awesome experimental super-weapons like spider-bots with death rays, flying saucers with disintigration beams and huge artillary canons
  • Fluid limitless resource management system
  • 4 factions with unique characteristics - human military, cyborgs, two wierd alien races....
  • Typical games of 4v4 but can be less or more

You can get it very cheap on G2A for like $3 - https://www.g2a.com/supreme-commander-gold-edition-steam-cd-key-global.html?___store=australia
Or you can just torrent it.
You will require both Supreme Commander and the addon Forged Alliance which both come in the "Gold" package.
You will also require the community lobby installer which can be found at Forged Alliance Forever website - http://faforever.com
This basically acts as a server launcher / finder / matchmaking system and automatically updates the game and any map / mod you might need instantly.

Count me in, will probably have to practice a bit as I never got around to playing it after installing but eh I'll give it a shot.
 
we do some practice matches against ai's at least once a day so you can get familiar with stuff during those

just make sure you have everything installed and sf one of us if you see us launching supcom
 
I should probably start launching from steam so people know we have a game going
 
yea if you add the faforever launcher process to steam your game client will get the overlay when you join a match

also we should try the phantom mod if we can get like 8 people:

Was just watching that video........why the fuck dosnt that idiot build power generators at the start lol
 
Planetary Annihilation is essentially a toned down version of Supreme Commander with modern day graphics, but honestly the gameplay in Supreme is far superior and the sheer amount of micromanagement required makes it really fun and challenging.
 
i have pa but honestly it doesn't even come close to supcom even though it's supposed to be a successor
all the units are boring and identical, there's only one faction and pathfinding is an absolute mess
not to mention that you just completely lose track of everything thats going on after a while and it just turns into a spam contest
 
PA is cool but again as the other guys said..........I honestly cannot get to grips with the orbital system and its just impossible to see what the fuck is going on
tldr its a great concept but they just didnt pull it off
 
I just like to crash moons into my friends on PA.
 
SA (and FA) are the best RTS's I've played in a long shot, always wanted to get into a proper few games not against people I knew so well their tactics were burned into my brain.

I'm in once I get it reinstalled.
 
I would love to play even though I'll be very bad! I'll make sure to pick it up, I've had my eye on it for awhile anywho. Depending on when it happens I would really enjoy playing ty :)

So yes count me in.
 
Sign me up.

I played a game with the gang today. It was fun.

I kept pouring resources into people because their economies couldn't handle their attempts to tech-max. :)

Also Gangledier got his ass handed to him by a pair of tactical nukes within the first half hour of the game because he wanted to show off his chest mounted microwave laser of doom.
