Odd, I thought there would be a thread on this game already, but, I haven't seen a dedicated thread for this game yet.
I noticed this game is $25 (https://store.stardock.com/product/ESD-SDE-W071 --steam key) until Feb 29th, and they are currently at beta 2, which should be the last beta before the release according to their roadmap.
Has anyone gotten a chance to try this one out yet?
The graphics look much better than Planetary Annihilation, along the lines of supreme commander 1, but, I can't really tell from the vids if there is any lasting replay value here, or how the campaign mode will end up?
There don't seem to be many different unit types available, only about a handful that I have seen.
Haven't seen anything like shield units either (like SC had).
I also noticed they have this game on GOG, but, it really isn't DRM free, since it needs the GOG client to actually work, and on top of that, you can't play battles with steam people either.
No word yet if this is cross platform as well for battles, so you can have windows vs linux vs macs all playing in the same game.
No working LAN yet either, right?
Is the AI actually non-cheating?
*edit, see https://forums.anandtech.com/thread...ation-now-merged.2465316/page-3#post-38742594 for full details on the original game & the new Escalation game that everyone is getting for free.
