That's like offering Beer to fuck the fat chick. It will work for a while, but it's not gonna last. Not only that, but there is zero motivation for the Fat chick to loose weight.

I think the alpha is out for pre-order people to muck about with last I heard.

We are serious about enforcing this, and I am sure you all want to be able to have your balance thought considered by the development team with some biased, sensationalist coming into your thread and ruining it.

Looks like fun tbh.
If I had the spare cash lying around I'd pre-order it and give the Alpha a whirl.

I mean I know Obama was the first one in EiR to get a card. and tbfh the Race card is pretty OP. but Romney has the K.K.K., those guys seem to camo anywhere. So OP units from both sides.

I want to know one thing. How do you win?
No really, 2 really good players would never win...because you be going back into the past every couple seconds trying to out do each other..
Like, Player A is trying to destroy Player B's base, so Player B pushes a load of troops back a couple mins and then try to destroy a little of his base before he can build certain units ect :3

You can only go back so far. Also the further back you go the more energy it will cost you. From a strictly advantageous standpoint the first person to go back in time is at a disadvantage.
Winning an RTS isn't about being at the top of your game, it's about making less mistakes then your opponent and capitalizing on the ones he does make. An opponent is defeated when his mental capacity can no longer support the quick decisions he is forced to make. Given the spectrum of decisive points you can traverse in a time themed RTS there is a larger pool of things to consider and mistakes to be had. A better player will prove to be a better player.
They've got the time mechanics down, now if they can just make a good RTS.

You do have a point
I do want to try this, but I reason wish they improved the graphics/look of this game, its the biggest turn off for me at the moment, style and graphical wise, it looks like its trying to compete with Total annilhation...

I have the alpha, and its not too bad - the graphics and pathing is pretty bad, but hey... its an indie game
The important game-element in the game, is the time-waves, things need to synch up, and they are in ~30 second waves.
So, if you got attacked in the PRESENT, you could go back in time 1 minute, teleport an army in to reinforce you (assuming they are at a teleporter say) - and after the past propogates into the present, the fight then become different =)
After playing the tutorials, Id have to say this game would be VERY addictive for tactical reasons.
It'll be an awesome LAN game, but the sequel (if it ever happens) will be what makes it big.

Same here Myst. I'm not content just beating my enemies. I like to leave them in a gibbering husk of humanity. Unfortunately CoH isn't stressful enough to bring players to task in that regard.

Well, there isn't an NDA on the Alpha, so give us some juicy details EiRRMod, you know you want to. :p

Nah, if you like it after playing it then buy it, shouldn't have to "pre-order" (give free moneys) to try the thing. Hell its how i found out that Mount and Blade was one of the single most Bad-Ass awesome moddable games out there took my close to 3 months to hunt down and buy a hardcopy from the store. (BTW it was indie too)
