Brightworks: "Solar sucks" Also Brightworks: "1 windspeed that's unfortunate nothing to be done"

[@BrightWorksTV]

High wind - build wind turbines Low wind - build wind turbines for when it goes back up again XD

[@Nebuchadwicknezzar]

​​@@BrightWorksTV this is the only way (although I'm curious about the 3 mex -> 2 solar start)

[@HonshuHigamori]

1 solar 2 wind turbines opening for when you don't trust wind and need consistency for your starting build Then just build wind turbines and energy storage unless you're on a map with questionable wind, then just build a couple adv solars on the way to fusion and reclaim them for the metal as fusion comes up Your basic solars should never exceed like 2 unless you're on a no-wind map Not Bright's fault devs make wind turbines the best pick on 90% of maps for 90% of the game time

[@mennoemile1118]

I don't have a lot of time to play, so your videos every day are so very welcome. Thanks man.

[@BrightWorksTV]

Wow thanks a ton to you mate! Glad you enjoy the videos :)

[@Murasame13]

Saw a couple comments complaining about "bm" or "troll" gameplay because the better players... played better? than the less skilled players? What did you actually expect? Are the better players supposed to go easy on the newer players so they can learn bad habits? I remember when RTS games weren't filled with so many softies. AoE4 has them too. Playing aggressively or out-skilling a player isn't seen as a good play anymore, it's just "bm." I learned how to play RTS games by getting my ass kicked over and over until I learned how to play properly.

[@pauldraper1736]

bowel movement?

[@LefteyeL]

People will complain and either get better, leave or stagnate, nothing new in the world with that regard

[@LefteyeL]

Light purple got 2v1ed and his team never responded. He is lucky it wasn’t faster given that red team air ignored helping his top two teammates

[@Murasame13]

@@pauldraper1736 Bad manners?

[@GenericCat]

don't worry, seems like it is only one person who thinks is BM, no one is defending that point of view xD

[@yevanasvetya5486]

06:50 great wall of china recreation. Faithful to the real life counterpart too. Didnt finish, got a big ass hole for the enemy to ride through. But also, still building it even after the enemy is already running past it

[@Erziraphel]

I can be wrong, but a few weeks ago when I followed your channel you had just under 2k follower. And look at you now! Nice work as ever, I wish you all the best!

[@BrightWorksTV]

We're growing steadily every day! It really has been a ride though so I appreciate the support mate :)

[@TheDeathlyG]

Thanks for another banger! I really appreciated the focus on Red, getting to see their whole strategy. If people are unhappy about the focus, maybe pausing and checking in on the rest of the map every few minutes could be a decent compromise?

[@BrightWorksTV]

That's a good idea! I've wanted to do more focused views here and there so that sounds like a good way to balance all the chaos going on in a game :)

[@MarkkuS]

I mean, people don't complain about forced 50 % winrate for nothing 😂

[@matthorrocks6517]

Any gameforcing 50% won't be played

[@zilfondel]

In a team vs team game, this will always end up in half the teams winning, and half losing. That's just basic fractions, which most people learn by the age of 12.

[@matthorrocks6517]

@@zilfondel sure then why does America have a 40% win rate. It's nation vs nation.

[@Tim_van_de_Leur]

More Brightworks :D

[@ZachRE88]

Teamwork OP please nerf. 😅

[@Jim-ee6du]

look at the os on each team! Even discounting the massive advantage that red team got from their superior teamwork from eural and delfea being in the same clan, the OS difference between teams made this game feel very unbalanced

[@wewliusevola]

I always place metal extractors exactly on the deposits, bad habit from SCFA!

[@BrightWorksTV]

It's pretty interesting the way the metal node system works for different maps. Sometimes you can get away with a lot of extra room!

[@ItsDinnerTime]

is that THE hotshotgg???

[@TheDeathlyG]

It's unclear honestly. Time to do some Twitch searching or something. Miss him from CLG 😭

[@euralv.6790]

It's the real hotshot, he streamed a few times a few months ago

[@AidanNaut0]

Yes it is.

[@toastibread5357]

what a game

[@thomnath1]

What is the name of this map?

[@euralv.6790]

Omg dsd time :DD

[@Hotrancidgrease]

Waa team whooped that.

[@euralv.6790]

waa

[@gowsiganperinpanathan801]

how you can build with alphabetic buttons? like z x c v.....

[@BrightWorksTV]

I use a combination of legacy and grid hotkeys that gives me half of each. For the technical details best bet would be to check the pinned messages in the main channel of my discord where I've explained how I set it up better there :)

[@AOD_AnkGrooger]

obviously left team won. You have a level 43 and 39 fighting against a level 13... Not exactly a "pro deathmatch"

[@BrightWorksTV]

Both teams had pros, they just chose different roles and that was absolutely the downfall of our poor level 13 hero

[@JohnSmith-lc1ml]

Two high os players working together to cheese two low OS players. Very bm play.

[@myspicyclips6402]

agreed

[@GenericCat]

nothing bm about it, this is what this game is about my friend

[@Delfeacy]

Next time I will make sure to spawn opposite their blue player, my bad bro.

[@BrightWorksTV]

I wouldn't say bm, it was just aggressive vs passive. The lower OS players just didn't know how to read that

[@Thot-Slayer-420]

Bm? All they did was use a bit of teamwork in a team based game. I think this served as a reminder, along with all the instances of communism in the streams, that working with your teammates, both tactically and strategically, as something to think about for all players.

[@myspicyclips6402]

how a pro player approaches the game: bully a newer player trying to make a wall with LLTs behind it lol. hope it was fun for them

[@Delfeacy]

I don't get it, should I instead troll my teammates by not trying to win the game?

[@BrightWorksTV]

I think that's a harsh criticism. The blue team chose to invest their OS into teching meaning they knew their front would be weaker. The red team did the opposite and we got an explosive show

[@Thot-Slayer-420]

This isnt a tower defense game, you win by killing commanders.

[@myspicyclips6402]

@@BrightWorksTV could be. i’m just not sure how well the tactic would scale going up against a frontliner of the same skill. we don’t have evidence from this game

[@myspicyclips6402]

@@Delfeacy no i’m just trying to have some sympathy for your opposing frontliner here. bro loaded into the match and got ran down by 2 players with double his skill in under 10 minutes. like congrats, you dominated him. just sort of a pick on someone your own size scenario. it’s not something you really choose at the beginning of the match besides in lobby creation so i get it. but i mean cmon he’s building walls while his commanders about to explode and destroy them all. you’re like michael jordan dunking on middle schoolers
