Sub Titans - another good game with bad luck

Submarine Titans https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Yn-rv5EfyNk/maxresdefault.jpg Anyone remember that? It's a real-time strategy, year or two older than Original War. Pretty good game if I may say so. Has some interesting concepts, good depth in gameplay due to research of technology, capturing enemy subs/bui...

Re: OW Editor Splash + Other stuff

I must say that I really like these changes.
The small height of main view always bothered me a bit, switching right panel with the bottom one will help significantly.

I don't have any idea for editor splash, but if I had to choose from those two, I would pick the new sample.

Good work.

Re: Multiplayer in Poland

Community isn't shrinking. Antitheus is right, we've got more players than before, but most of them are new players. I'm happy to hear that yet my point still stands. There is significantly less active players in our Skype chat than there was when I first started playing multiplayer. There is alway...

Re: Multiplayer in Poland

I can't say if the community is shrinking right now. We've got twice as much visits per day nowadays (compared to 2012-2013). There's no proper indicator for this thesis. Singleplayer is the strongest driving force for OW. Given the time, MP games are quite boring. Well, I'm talking mainly about ou...

Re: Multiplayer in Poland

I played a demo of Praetorians as a kid, but I also have it purchased on GOG (waiting to be played, not enough time for all those games :( ). I may take a look at it but right now I have different things to worry about, like our shrinking community. What would be new maps good for if there is noone ...

Re: Multiplayer in Poland

Have you thought about looking at multiplayer maps from other games and copying their "footprint"? Total Annihilation had some good map designs for example (Granted alot won't work as there are no ships or air transports in OW). There are also some good ones from CNC games. Actually I did...

Re: Multiplayer in Poland

AB > Flags, because AB is... easier map. You can learn strategies after few games. Also, matches on AB are more spectacular. It isn't just HG rush. Okay, it is, but it has many variants. You can HG rush in 10th minute. You can rush with 15x comp HG and 15x manual in 50th minute. You can build a bas...

Re: Multiplayer in Poland

Well, I pretty much made a bigger version of it, sort of. You can take a look at Shrubs map in Throwback. Swastika is also similar in layout to Alien Base. Both maps are bigger than AB. I don't think that people play AB because it's balanced, but because without Flags it's the only map for more than...

Re: Multiplayer in Poland

Usually if I play a map other than AB, my friend and I would play on throwback and usually without any set rules. We actually prefer not to instantly rush but instead wait a few more minutes before attacking. I think being able to actually play around with some other aspects of the game such as pla...

Re: Multiplayer in Poland

So, nothing changed in multiplayer? That's sad, I don't feel like coming back to "you can't build this and you can't build more than two of that and don't even think about rushing!" :(.
Not to mention those damned morphlings, which we nerfed in Throwback for a good reason.

Re: Multiplayer in Poland

As far as I'm concerned, XR clan is probably the only community left here, and it's in a bad state (most of the players just don't have much time to play anymore). And even though some our players played with Polish players (I think Drajdr did it quite often, but he didn't play in a really long time...

Multiplayer in Poland

Recently I realised that because our little czech community played OW in our own little world for past few years, I have no idea how does situation look at the other side of the barricade. So I would like to ask few simple questions :) : What rules or maps are usually played today? Do you have enoug...

Re: SYNC w OW - Ekipa analizująca [ENG + PL]

I can just say from the time we discovered this pause trick, we recognized the difference between players using ingame clock. Which means that it should be working fine with up to about 10 seconds worth of ticks.

Re: Protection

So I just heard that protection was actually commented out in the older versions of the game. So it really does nothing.
