The *Official* Supreme Commander Thread

Where do i put the replays and how do i watch them, i think im gonna watch a few to se where im going wrong dont suppose anyone has any of them plaing against the hard AI and winning? I need to see what to change in my game as at the moment im close to giving up.
 
In-between Games at the mo, thinking of picking supcom up as the beta was pretty fun.

Does it run ok on vista & with Nvidai g80 series ?

thx

It runs like crap on any system unfortunately when you have 4 players with 200 units :( Given up on this game till they fix it.

just check out some of the replays on gpgnet mate, there are hundreds on there and you can watch the game unfold from other plays to get good strategy and tips for base building. it certainly helped me.



that really depends on the base you are attacking. any base with t3 matrices and feeble defences deserves to get blowed up. bearing in mind that i genreally have at least 10-20 air sup patrolling my base, as well as SAM and flak cannons, as well as mobile flak. 20 gunships may not make as big an impact as you might think. yeh it might take a few fabs down, but how much did you spend making those 20 gunships.

im not saying its not beatable, everything is with one tactic or another. but to build big you need an economy to do so, one of the best matrices is the 1 t3 gen and 2 t3 fabs. if they get taken out you only lost 2 fabs and not an entire economy. as for the larger t3 matrices, once you have the ability to make them like that you have the ability to defend them. you could say for anything that its nothing X amount of X unit wont get past but its all a question of decisions. if you are making 20 t3 gunships i have time to build a load of SAMs and mobile sheild gens. if you are making nukes i have time to make anti nukes.

thats why the game is great, you can counter my X with your Y, but then i can use some Z to beat that and so on.

tbh, don't attack mass fabs, go for the power gens, that will cause more chaos

Well beta ran fine for me on xp and a ati x1900 card with 4 players.

However ive changed my system around a bit since i last played and id like to know if supcom will run ok on vista coupled with a NV g80 gpu.
 
The game runs dog slow when you have 4 players.

Even 3 players V 3 AI the game runs SO SLOW it will take you 3 hours to finish building a T3 power gen

I run vista ultimate but on an 1800xt card and its reasonably ok at 1920x1200 maxed with no AA, u get a tad slowdown but nothing hurrendous.

My windows experience index on Vista is 5.7

Also has anyone grabbed the map pack from the official mod forums?

Runs fine for me and I regularly play 2v2 with 1000 unit cap.

Things can only get better with this game really.

It really needs dual core to run properly. I upgraded to an opteron 165, and 5 players with 500 units a peice runs fine :)

Its your pc mate.
Runs fine with 8 players and loads of units here :)
 
supreme commander just dies on me sometimes for absolutely no reason, my system should run it fine, it was only 1 vs. 1 and boom, kicked to desktop with some gay error message to do with the game, will someone release a game that has no bugs please...

Works fine on mine... must be your system/driver config mate.
 
I posted in this thread earlier saying my game was crashing to desktop. Well, i sorted it last night.

I tried downloading a patch from the THQ Support site, but then I couldn't load my save games.

So I moved my save games to another folder, removed SC and re-installed. Copied the saves back in, and working OK now, touch wood! :)

Now, all I need to do is hold off the waves of air/navy while the sun cannon huge thing powers up :eek:
