If you are upgrading your shields and u run out of mass they will also go down (believe this only applies to cybrans, as they are the only race to have upgrades on their shields)

UEF Sheilds can be upgraded also T2 -> T3

I've been playing with Aeon lately and puzzeled as to why the aircraft carrier and CZAR flying fortress do not service aircraft automatically (or maybe the other way round, lol). The planes simply just run out fuel and refuse to service themselves at the aircraft carrier or CZAR. The only thing I noticed was occasionally some aircraft fly into the aircraft carrier but then do not fly out again. :confused:

Anyone else notice this?

Yep. Was driving me crazy last night. Maybe I should read the manual, or look at the tutorials or something.
 
Heh, yeah, even worse if it's T4 arty :-)

That reminds me, i was winning a ranked match the other night (yay!) so as usual i had a bit of a play about. Dear lord T3 bombers are powerfull. I tend not to use them too much given their ability to attract every bit of AA fire for miles around but i'm seriously going to have to give them another shot when mixed in with a T1 bomber/interceptor swarm. especially if i can pinpoint the enemy ACU

This is one of my fav's..... sending a swarm of scouts, then a swarm of t3 bombers in. And having the scouts patrol around the enemy base attracting all the AA :)

If you've got enemy navy/warships to worry about....I keep a squad of t3 bombers and scouts handy to get rid of them quick.... much quicker than waiting on a bunch of subs or ships getting to the enemy :)
 
Hello,
I’ve already posted the following in another thread, but thought I’d try my luck in this thread as I’ve not resolved my problem – sorry for the multi post, but I’m desperate for a solution!

Hello,
I’d completed the first 5 missions (Supreme Commander) on Medium difficulty and then bought a new PC from OC(one of the main reasons was to play it at max detail), I stupidly forgot that the game saves are on the C Drive and have subsequently lost them, I know its only 5 levels but it took me ages to complete them and I don’t want to do them again. Could anyone PM me there save games or point me somewhere I can get them? I know its a long shot but worth a go! its with the first 'team' I'm at work and can't remember the name...

Cheers

PS I've sold my old PC so File Scavenger etc is not an option.
PPS I was playing as the first Faction (can’t remember the name at work)
 
I have tried every tactic i can try and i just CANT beat the hard AI, i mean its just impossible, it doesnt matter what i try it doesnt work. Bit sick now as its as if i will never beat them so may aswell give up :( its insanely hard. I dont know what the people who say they think the AI isnt hard are doing as i just cant understand it.
 
Hmm, didn't find the hard ai that hard... much harder in the single player than skirmish though.. hardest AI on skirmish i find is hord... they actually attack you with more than 1 unit at a time... (built up my base and did some stuff for a couple fo hours, by the time i got back, their attack waves were consisting of at least 50 t3 bots...)

With regards to shields... holy poo @ a match i played last night...

Friendly, the guy had his base in a square of t3 sam launchers, surrounded buy fully upgraded shields (cybran btw..) surrounded by t2 pd... no gaps whatsoever.. could not get any ground units in (i wasnt allowed to use nukes or experimentals btw :D he was n00b) could fly a substantial ammount of planes in, but they would all be dead b4 they hit the other side of his base... so i com-bombed him.... and destroyed... nothing... absolutely didly squat... the ammount of shields he had actually stopped the comanders blast... All i can say to that is: :eek:

EDIT: 25 t3 artillery managed to take him down...


...in the end

If you lose a mission dont you get an opporinity to skip it? Suicide & Skip?

M@rt
 
hardly that - its the one where you've gotta take the 'nodes' and i always fail to get to the 2nd one in time to stop the Aeon taking out the whole base :/

The second time i tried it they went straight for the node and ignored the base buildings !

I had about 20 destroyers on their way there too :(
 
Odd, thats the mission i just completed... got 2 more to get afterwards, and then the main base, which your not allowed to tuch untill u get all the nodes...

They completely took out the base, but they never even went for the node... i must have got lucky :eek:
 
I was playing a 1v1 with a supreme AI (forgot which map though), but it was bloody hard. Don't know how it does it but somehow the AI's base was armed to the teeth with defence yet almost from the start it attacked me continiously with craploads of tech 2 and tech 3 bots/tanks. It then started to pound my base with artillery whilst sending monkeylords left right and centre; even my attempt to attack with 4 experimental assault bots failed miserably. It only ended when I chucked several volleys of nukes simultaneously at its base. :o
 
*sigh* still playing the demo, gonna get the game soon. Noticed the cap of 500 units. Is it higher in the full game or the same? It's not RAM dependent is it?

its 1000 in full game. highly cpu dependant and ram i expect.

Had a 2 vs 2 earlier with me andmy mate. Mate got wiped out whilst i kept churning out broadswords the enemy had a load of naval units but no air (on that 10km paradise map) I ended up winning my my mass of air units

The bots never seem to be that good when I play? Like they never have more than 3 Tech4 units on the map at a time, and they've only ever tried to nuke me a couple of times.
Is there a harder mode than supreme that other people are playing on? Everyone just seems to be making the AI out to be much harder than it is.

I think it depends a lot on the map you are playing on. On some maps supreme AI is just easy and on others i find it quite challenging.

the map makes a difference
as the AI puts even amounts of resorces on air and water then more on ground
get a water/air map and its screwed

That might explain it. I love navies so normally play on mostly water maps.
