Horde AI, i don’t find it challenging, they just seem to send streams of T1 units. Anyway we had a game with the AI where it decides what to do depending on the map and we found it a little harder, mainly because they were just constantly attempting to nuke us and insisted in using huge artillery to bomb our bases.

I don’t know if its just me but the AI never seems to send a substantial amount of units. They would send single bombers or a couple of ships at a time. Hoard AI is the only one where they seem to send a decent amount of units but they are all T1. :confused:
 
When you're producing units and your resources run out, units are still being created ?

Does the build rate just slow down ?
 
god dammit im still getting the please verify settings thing even though ive just installed a new HDD bringing my total to 540gb now!

this on a 3700+ @ 2.7, 1.5gb RAM, 7800GT, Epox 9NDA3+ SLI, X0fi
 
Yes, it's just like TA. When you're using more resources than you're producing your build rate will slow down. How much it slows down depends on how much more you're using than producing.
 
I just cant play the game as it always crashes out on me. I live in hope that at some point one of the patches may fix this for me.
 
If your having trouble with Supcom atm and it seems to be just randomly crashing to the desktop, you may notice the time on a small ish map gets to about 40 > 50 mins (thats only an average i noticed on my system and my mates).
Its pretty easy to fix, have a look at this, http://forums.gaspowered.com/viewtopic.php?t=2382&highlight=3gb
Applied the patch on both systems and now they are running perfectly.
Might not work for everyone, but worth giving it a shot ^^

edit
We're both using Vista Premium 64bit, and Nvidia 7900 with the 101.41 drivers.
Only had to do the patch and not edit the boot.ini

I played against 1 horde AI on the green hilly map sorry cant remember the name and they sent tons of tech 3 units and tech 3 planes/bombers, i had no chance, they sent streams and streams of tech 3 bots and they snuck up the sides of my base then he just bombed me and took half the base out before i had a chance to get shields up.

Its massively dependant on the map you choose as to wether the AI is hard or not according to the lead tech for the game over on the official forums.

Ill have to try a different map type then. I usually play on a map with islands and a fair amount of sea.

the AI seems to prefer land troops to all others for some reason.


also, new patch, won't install, says my supcomm exe is not right, gonna have to re-install.
will do it after I finish the single player
 
Its gettin ridiculous,

"Heres a patch, but you cant use any of your saved single player games"

"Heres another patch, just to screw you up some more"

I dont mind patches, but the intervals are very close together.

I need to re-install because my .exe is wrong!! Ok so maybe i did put in the No DVD crack so i can keep my disc shiny, but darnit... :rolleyes:

Always back up your original exe file - even if you just rename it to backup.exe :)

The main reason i wont run a no dvd on this is its pointless as the games updated very 3 days and it wrecks your install .exe, best just keeping the dvd in the drive. Whats the latest version then?
