Thanks man 😊

It's not punny.

I thought it was goo-d…

I will try harder next time! His air scared me.

It was great fun. Again sometime soon!

Nice to see you over here! It's the same isn't it? Metal extractors on metal spots and power plants? Make sure your eco bars at the top are balanced with your spending.

@ I figured it out!! Thank you for the advice. My issue was I either didn’t see the eco bars or they didn’t show up. I’m playing on my laptop so it’s a bit off at times. Thanks again :)

Glad you’ve understood it :) you’ll do well if you’ve nailed supcom!

Sorry for the hiatus, balancing a lot of life stuff :) will post another next weekend, with the aim of a bit more consistency!

@@DanRTS yeeeey 🤩

Heh similar attitude to playing the game. I liked table, if you go through my catalogue you'll find some games I played with him around 4 years ago. The nuke tank only game is good fun!

Ha. Yea really should have, but I can't help wanting a titan. 👍

Ha! Gotta keep it janky. They come and go. They are setup now, I'm just absolutely crap at using them.

Thank you! Glad you enjoy them 😁

Ai. That is all.

You are very welcome 👍

You know what - I don't really know tbh! Most multiplayer games tend to be single planet - I think a lot of people find it a lot easier to control units etc (me included) on a single planet. So they tend to be less popular. I will try and play some more in the future 😁

@@DanRTS That.. is totally true actually. But arent there shortkeys to switch between planets?

Yea I believe there are. I was speaking to an ex-plat (futuregnome) the other day and he was saying that's how he plays multiplayer systems (with hot keys to switch). I need to investigate what the keys are!

Haha!! Very true. I never think about storage early game as I rarely get into blue, but this game mid-late I hit the blue a fair bit. Noted for the future :)

Hummm that's a good thought process - I know this is an essential move in BAR, but not so sure it is worth it in PA as there is a lot more metal generally. That's one to post in the PA discord :)

Didn't expect my comment to be taken into consideration awesome!

Haha. Damn straight you are sorry.. 😂

Yea it can be pretty hard to combat air superiority :) thanks! Glad you enjoyed.

Ha! Performance suffers a bit with anything bigger.

Very true, normally I go after killing some of the units, but in this video I just wanted to kill the comm quickly. Thanks for watching :)

@@DanRTS Sorry i was speaking generally not criticizing your game, my bad 🙂 I play like sh*t. 😄can barely beat a normal AI. but you know, its annoying to build a huge army, you’r just about to strike heavily and you realise you accidentally killed the enemies commander too early and the game ends.. hope one day people comes up with a mod to change this 🙂

Heh! I didn't take it critically don't worry :) yea this is the type of game to be honest, all derived from Total Annihlation - protect your commander at all costs. There's similar games such as command and conquer where you have to kill all the units to win. To beat medium, even Uber AI, I guarantee you'll win if you just build tanks. Just tanks (and fabrication to get metal spots). It's a fun challenge, give it a go :)

@@DanRTS Thanx man. Gonna try this 🙂👍

Heh yea that would be great. There is a system called 'Annihilator System' which has the two Planetary Lazers. I will have to play that again! I will ensure I do. I will also look at whether I can edit those planets to be like this too :)

Thank you for your kind comments. Really pleased that these videos get people into the game and community. Yea it is pretty small these days but people are generally really friendly. Great to have you :)

Thanks man! Glad you enjoy the vids 😁

Does it?

Yes, usually also has crossovers

Ha definitely skill. Totally just skill. Yup 😛

there's a channel, Zilberkoenig who has an amazing series covering the basics, as well as some other tips about various features and unit types in the game. i played PA since 2015 and even i learned a few new things from it, he has a playlist of the series if you look up his channel

Hey - online matches are really hard. I would suggest you practice with AI skirmishes (hard and above) first to get used to quick starting routine. I'm not the best at the game, but in general I would say make sure you are using that eco as much as possible, without running out if you can. Never let it sit 'blue', as that means you are wasting it - build more units or storage. Tanks are a strong general unit and do well against most units (T1) with an exception of speed, so tend to be a staple in my unit make up. Always keep expanding, and plonk forward factories down where there are metal groups for protection and army growth. For scouts, air has a great radius and is fast, and vehicle scouts can see mines, so its a good idea to include them in the mix once and a while. You should start T2 production around the 6-8min mark, if you have the eco to support it. The commander general starting should be bots + metal + air + 3 power + factory + repeat(3 power + factory), whilst this is a good starting point, it the factory type, map type and amount of fabrication you have that can dictate things. If the map has a tonne of metal your first factory could be on just fabricator production, and cranking a really strong economy. The unit mix from the starting factory should be 3 or 4 fabricators, a load of dox/strykers, maybe anti-air, then add a fabricator back into the mix, to ensure you have a constant supply as you grow. The starting fabricators should be going to get metal immediately. Never let them be idle (easier said that done!) Ensure you know the hot keys for 'select idle fabs' and 'select idle factories'. he best raiding units are groups of dox as they are fast. Keep applying the pressure with raiding. Grenadiers are ok against turrets but poor in general. Get onto the PA discord as there are always people to offer you free coaching. Hope that helps!

@@DanRTS and i think its important to note getting beaten doesn't have to be a failure in its entirety, checking replays is surprisingly helpful in both seeing what the enemy did to get the advantage, and get a better hold of where you made a bad move I also have a friend who's really good at the game and i like to 1v1 him every now and then, even tho i get my ass beat more often than not, he's great at the game and taught me a lot of neat stuff i never knew despite playing for nearly 6 years :> And while the community may be a bit smaller than most, there are a load of great people, some of which may even stick around after a match to give you some pointers

What a list. Noted for the future 😊

@@DanRTS theres also the bug survival then the modded map where you can artillery over a canyon and lead your units through a tron like maze to the enemies base. I also think there was capture points for that map… Of course it would be a 1v1

Thanks mate! Glad you enjoy them. Really appreciate the kind comments. Do you play PA too?

Yea I have no idea either, I would have thought they'd love me hitting all their power and metal 🤷

Got to love absorbing the enemy and getting their live metal.

Thanks! I plan to try and keep them coming with more regularity. Hope you enjoyed.

Hopefully without a break this time :)

Ha! We need to play again mgfd.

Yes, apologies for the break in recording! Been very busy over the summer. Going to try and get back into a regular schedule again too :).

@@DanRTS single handedly keeping the RTS genre relevant on youtube xD

@CrispyMuffin2 Ha. Not at all true. Certainly PA though :)

Heh yea I didn't play very well in this game at all, although I was starting to push back. Have bluehawks got a longer range?

@@DanRTS their range is pretty similar but because of that slope and their missiles homing and doing more damage I reckon they’d have done the trick

Hop into the /PA discord, theres loads of people willing to play in there 👍

It was a hosted game with the host's custom map so I don't have it. There is one called 'Drained Nomegatron 4v4' in the [WAF] Map Pack which is verrrry similar just less pretty. Hope that helps!

@@DanRTS thank you so much and love your videos, can’t wait for the new game to come out

@@lostname9850 No worries! Glad you enjoy them. I've had issues with performance of late so haven't managed to record many more. Hoping to get some more games out in the next week of so. Yes I am also looking forward to the new game coming out. I hope it comes out all guns blazing!

Hey! Glad you liked the video!. This is a game mode on the 'bugs' faction mod. You can find it in the mods section on the main menu 👍

Nailed it.
