As someone on the bottom right team, I can confirm that Starfall was so fatal

Games are never hosted on a played pc, when you create a lobby, you are only the "boss" of said lobby which is hosted in the server of BAR.

@@spac3drunk283 The Barbarian AI's are only controlled by the player who added them (but it does support multithreading)

the server only does the networking pass though without doign any simulation itself

7950X3D with a RTX 4070, the 3D cache really really helps with large unitcounts!

@@Ruwetuin Speaking of ... Any plans to organise a "standard settings" benchmarking round to create a database to help folks figure out what upgrade[s] to make? There's already the benchmarking scenarios. The requirements on the download page are lame and "X3D really helps" doesn't help those who can't afford the much larger price required. 🙏

@@ChrispyNut any (semi) modern computer will run BAR just fine, these outlier games are something else though, but even for most participants it stayed playable

@@Ruwetuin Except when it comes to those of us who Coop exclusives, whether scavs or raptor, whereby the outlier is every game. Besides, the more common it is for people to be able to play 10K unit games, the more common 5K unit games can become and Spring can really flex on the RTS stage. It would be really helpful if there was a resource people could point to, when the "I exceed the requirements but mid/late-game I get laggy, what's wrong, I play every other game fine". BAR, given it's fundamentals are decades old, is an oddball, even for RTS games people see benchmarks for in reviews, but too niche to be in reviews, so we need to take care of that ourselves, IMO.

Flash always is a stable factor on his own. After watching the replay, at 30:15 I was preparing a small invasion force to get to flash base, but then decided to save ourself with it because of PtaQ attacking us again. That invasion force had a good chance of killing Flash base too. Anyway, hope to see you around again some day!

@@Ruwetuin It was nice of everyone to let you keep the mid for so long. I wonder how much of that is due to the number of people who didn't understand what "centre has moho" meant 🤣 Maybe when we're both carrying different names again, I'll re-return, and/or there's some structure in place so some kind of consensus is required for sweeping changes, rather than the whim of a single commit permission person.

Yes its the wintergaming voice pack you can pick (notifications tab)

@@Ruwetuin that's so awesome you got the guy to help you out with that.

I just upgraded my PC. It has a 7950X3D with a RTX4070. I've tested and verified that the 3D cache starts helping in a big way when the game gets above 3200 units, up until then there is no difference between the non 3D cores and the 3D cores at all (i can swap cores at will live)

@@Ruwetuin Thanks for the elaborate answer! Now everybody can see what their next gaming system should look like :P

Can you explain which units/sounds specifically, since we have many different sounds for almost all weapons, especially the higher DPS ones.

@@BeyondAllReason I believe this question should be addressed to a broader set of players, my personal opinion may be wrong. PS: the game keeps getting better and better, keep it up!

Gource - an animated tree with the root directory of the project at its centre. Directories appear as branches with files as leaves. Developers can be seen working on the tree at the times they contributed to the project. really cool stuff, never seen it before.

No way

possibly, i cant recall

We ve been keeping afloat by donations

@@Ruwetuin i see, asaic i'l do my part and contribute with this awesome project! Now I'll gonna work!
