i like playing on smaller maps with ai and having small skirmishes and smaller battles with maybe an experimental unit or two

That's not just me right? Oh, it is? Damn.

Seriously, though. Attack on Titan: Colossal Titans barely go over a GC's knee, and are killed by Pre-WWI tech. Pretty sure a single GC could wipe the entire Rumbling. Muv Luv: Yeah, the Laser class are a pain, but everything else is easy reclaim. Starship Troopers: Bugs are there for stomping.

I'm just saying, it would be super cool to watch. 🤣

Also, threw in a blank template for those who are good at memes to do some if anything strikes your fancy. And just in case Reddit does something weird to the template, Imgur link here.

Ive recently started playing again supcom1 original campaign on hard, my problem is that the units seems extremely unresponsive.

is it just the way it is or?

There is an old game called Battle Engine Aquila that makes you feel like you are in a SupCom game piloting a flying/walking mech. If you ignore the player in its mech, the simulation is an automated RTS with factories popping out units, land, air, navi and occasional experimentals. It's like you are an SACU in a very mobile flying chassis with the rest of the game doing its stuff. Hard to believe there was no sequel.

Hi, does anyone happen to know where and how I can install the hotbuild mod with the base SC FA game? Not interested in the various balance and game changes that FAF brings but some of its submods are neat and want to use them such as hotkeys. Rather avoid having to go to the preference file in the appdata folder to manually change the hotkeys and if this Hotkey mod allows me to do more things in-game easier then I’d love to try it.

Any suggestions? I’ve googled for FA hotbuild/hotkey mods and only got 1 github link where I’m not sure of.

I've owned Supreme Commander 2 for the Xbox for nearly most of my life, and this is the first time I've encountered a bug… I'm on the last mission, playing on normal to get the achievement. And I “killed the guy” but now I'm stuck on this, I can see the shadows of aircraft above, the sounds of said aircraft… pretty much everything is running but the actual cut scene… wild

First of all: None of the Supreme Commander units have blood inside them (except the ACU's head if its piloted) so V1 can't heal by attacking them because they don't bleed. While an ACU and it's armies can self repair without using blood, that alone is enough to put pressure on V1 due to his nature as a glass cannon.

Second of all: Everysingle Supreme Commander unit is bigger than all Ultrakill enemies, only exceptions are bosses like the Earthmover and the Corpse of King Minos. This is also a disadvantage for those because ACU armies are versatile and adaptable to the point they can counter them effectively (Air Unit spam or Artillery spam or Experimental Unit spam or Nuke spam).

Third of all: It won't matter how many units V1 destroys, as long the ACU is standing then its pointless as there will be more coming. The same applies in the other front, even if a single Earthmover shot destroys an army and base at the same time there will be anothers to replace it in no time.

Fourth of all: Can V1 parry nukes?

I like both games if you're wondering.

Hello all!

I’m a software engineer who happens to be very fond of the supreme commander series. I am looking to see if there would be any interest in mods for Supreme Commander 2. As far as i know, there is virtually no mod community.

If you were to play Supcom 2, what would you like to see from a mod? I’m not entirely sure what the limits of the engine are, but I am hopeful I can do some fun stuff!

Would you play modded Supcom 2?

I'm as new as you can be to this frachise and I intend to start playing the games, but I'm not sure which one to pick first. I heard over social media that Supcom 2 was this sort of rts masterpiece and that it was ahead of it's time, and that alone mildly convinced me to play the game, but when I further looked into the rabbit hole I found out it wasn't as perfect as some people stated, and that actually it was pretty distant to the core and main features of the first game.

Some people downright say it's an abomination, others that it is simply a downgrade from the previous titles, and a small percentage of the playerbase still claim it as a solid strategy game.

So... what's your saying on the matter?

(posting with mods permission)

I love SupCom, yet I don't have a windows PC to play it, and my friends won't switch to Windows to play with me.

So I went ahead and built a browser-based RTS game closely inspired by SupCom FA – for those who want to play casually, solo and with friends, on any desktop device.

You're all familiar with SupCom FA, so I don't need to explain the gameplay. There's Skirmish and Survival (wave defense) mode. I recommend creating a custom lobby to configure the game for yourself.

The controls might be a bit funky, so follow the instructions shown on the first match.

The AI is not very strong, so you can add multiple to one team for a better challenge.

I personally also like to create AI-only lobbies and just observe AIs fight each other :)

Hope it's fun. Feedback is welcome!

What the hell is up with FAF stability? 50% of matches end with someone crashing, that's if you can even get a game, because everyone loves sitting in a lobby and not readying up. Unfortunatly its sucked away my love of the game and I play BAR or 0K more now because they at least can finish a game

It's when an aurora has an enemy in range and you order it to retreat, but it instead moves forward a bit each time you give such order.

Haven't played the game for years now, but there used to be a mod that created a kind of wave defence/tower defence game mode designed for co-op.

It was on one of the darker maps, with enemies entering from the north end of the map and players spawning in the south. I think it had spawn locations for up to 8? players, and the goal was to survive 20 minutes or so against waves of ever increasing enemies up to multiple experimental units at once.

does anyone know what this map/mod was called?

Hello fellow Commanders, I just wanted to share here my idea for a possible mod crossover of sorts.

I believe that a this T4 Experimental hybrid tank and self-propelled artillery would be a really interesting unit for either the UEF or Cybrans given it's color-scheme.

As the description says, in Dust Front it acts as a super heavy self-propelled artillery unit of sorts that is normally deployed in it's "siege mode" similar to StarCraft but can also become mobile and move with a devastating triple battery almost battle-ship level firepower. It also has an upgrade that turns it into a proper artillery piece with a huge siege gun cannon that cannot fire on the move anymore and requires to be deploted in order to be effective. Just my 2-cents, that is all. Cheers.

Since we were appreciating our favorite units a few weeks back, I figured I'd toss out a reminder of how cool the UEF ACU looked in the Forged Alliance intro video.

I mean, damn, look at that beauty. The UEF ACU has ruined most other Mechs for me.
It's just so cool. 🤣

Percival on patrol.

Such an awesome looking unit. 100% my favorite unit design visually. Don't yall just love the design of this thing? If only it had better stats, it's a bit difficult to justify making xD

What is yall's favorite unit design?

So I’ve tried supcom1 again, after finally getting bored of SC2.

I played on easy mode, first mission was a breeze, but second mission with the aeon commander I heavily struggled, I setup multiple bases, with as much economy as I could muster.
Which wasn’t a lot, as soon as I setup more than 5 factories I started draining, and then shield tanks decimated my energy completely to empty, and I had built at LEAST 30 generators, along with the bigger energy plants.

Had the unit cap of 500 and still barely managed to make a dent in the aeon base for 2 hours, meanwhile the aeon commander was decimating my bases with waves that were 5 times smaller than mine.

The only way I was actually able to win it, was by tricking the AI of the aeon commander by not attacking it and luring it to walk into my army, then opening fire so it didn’t have enough time to run away, after 2 hours and 26 minutes I beat the mission, via commander knockout.

I could not for the life of my get any troops far enough into his base to take out all of the factories.

With a loss count of 1261 and a kill count of 672
Total units built 1921, total structures 314.

And energy/mass wasted in the 5 billions, despite continually running out of energy and mass, somehow I was wasting millions.

What am I doing wrong here, is there any definitive tutorial for the game that I can watch?
supcom2 is very manageable even on hard, but supcom1 is unplayably hard on the easiest difficulty.

I was doing some chill test games of Fields of Isis.

First game it immediately wrecked me with a quick bomber doing hover bombing. I wasn't expecting an AI rush so it was gg.

Then eventually in a 60 minuten game it completely overwhelmed me with 3 experimental bombers, covered by roughly a few 100 ASFs.

Considering how the ai didn't even cheat it really made me realize how much I suck at the game.

If you're a casual who wants a challenge, check it out! You can download it as a mod in the FAF client.

I've been playing supcom2 for AGES, and I'm starved for content, I've tried the other 2 games but they don't seem to capture what I like about the games as well.
Are there any moden successors that capture Supcom2's gameplay?
