Nice vid. Cheers for the suggestion too, but in this case they were both machine gunners. I've made a vid that i'll try and upload later as, despite watching it over and over, I can't work out why I got the kill. There have been a few other odd encounters - two moving machine gunners meeting in the open, both moving, neither having cover and spotting each other at the same time (which according to the Frozen Synapse forums should result in a random victor), and the same one always winning regardless of making slight changes to the path they take and previewing multiple times.

I think FS has an 'export to youtube' button which simply uploads the whole game to youtube so you wouldn't need to mess about with recording and editing it yourself

this sounds quite nice, sorta raven shield overview.

Nieldo I added you in game. I can't get enough of it, I load it up to check games then just end up starting another and playing for hours, just flicking between them.

Anyone know if the servers are always going to be separate? It would be great if they merged them.

Also my id is Jazzerman on UK1 so if anyone wants to add please go ahead

Bah, I'm playing on UK7 at the moment. Though with the servers, do you simply have different win/loss ratios per server, or how's it actually done?

I will add you, I believe they are planning to merge all the servers eventually, I get the feeling they were not expecting the amount of players they got.

I challenged you to a game Jazzerman, apparently it auto accepted even though you were offline.

I really tend to go into the simulation a lot. Too much.

Yeah it's good it does that, I spend a lot of time doing the simulations too, it's definitely the most important thing to do, you need to minimise any risks you must take when moving any units.

so I bought this the other day, none of my friends are really into this sort of thing, anyone who is serious on getting into this is welcome to it.

my gift copy I mean, I think the game is great.

I went halves with one of my friends, I showed another the game and he bought it immediately.

Another of my friends bought it and played one game with me. It was slaughter, afterwards he quit vent and logged off steam.

Is your mate Fitz? I see you have played him a bunch, I've actually played him and won

I think I forgot which colour I was and gave orders to red instead of green in that match.

Really? If you still have it, I'm willing to play. Can't guarantee I'll be any good, but it looks like great fun.

Just bought this on steam. Looks amazing! Just the game I was looking for!

Edited: removed, sorry for extra post, clicked wrong button.

mountaincow · 6 Jun 2011 at 02:14

My latest game, this is the first time playing this mode; I chose a tiny area so I could attack, it seems the other guy chose a small area too and a terrible one at that.

Lol why would you try to defend the middle of nowhere? Im currently loosing my first charge match... thought i would walk it until i realised he spawned with a different loadout to me.. tis hard to defend when your opponent has a rocket launcher and you dont
