What's the main problem that giving each class a "build tool" would solve? All classes can already build, and repair buildings. I can understand...
Yes. Code limitations are a thing too... From a usability perspective? A calculator is a calculator, it should function the same regardless of...
We used to have a small commander practice server, that's where i learned to play. Is it still there? if not, someone should start one again to...
Ok. You've convinced me that it's not a conceptually bad thing. I'd like to try it. As a final note. Some maps have very little resource income...
@Lazybum I am unsure as to whether research cost will prolong or shorten a game. That depends entirely on the map, team skill, and available...
@Lazybum I agree that tanks are most often used to counter other tanks (this is an entirely separate issue). However when it comes to destroying...
Why would this be a good thing? I can only see this slowing down research acquisition and adding a real decision between expansion or...
Source2... Well, it's nowhere on the horizon. Maybe it will appear with hl3 :P There is surprisingly little info about source2 online. But the...
@duke I can remodel them if i have to. I assume this is to get a fully rotating turret? I think a new chassis would be better from a design point...
@Polyesta So how could the animation be improved? When you say buildings... You mean faction buildings? or map buildings?
The thing is... I've never seen an unreal engine game with vehicles... Borderlands 2? i think was the only one? And even then... there weren't...
Do you have any experience with unity? From what I've read, ue4 is very fps oriented.
TBH... I still can't see the point in researching something that you can't use... Why waste lots of time researching weapons that are useless...
Phong highlighting. Make the wire shiny.
There wouldn't be much coding difficulty. Just avoid mech-eng. And surely the optimal research path is armour/engine -> chassis -> weapons?...
But the barbed wire shines pretty at night... Also, more rain.
@duke Could it be described as commander "autopilot"? Since it would place buildings, perform research, and possibly give targets... But it...
What about buildables though? Bridges, barriers and so forth... I'm thinking slaughtered here and plunge...
With the current system. It clearly defines roles that a player can play. This makes it easy for a commander to review their team structure, and...
@Lazybum but then they damage their eyesight ;) That's the problem with detail settings. Most cool effects can be disabled (and yet some people...
