Supreme commander 500+ gunship swarm

[Davneiros]

Nasa called, they want their computer back

[gunboy77]

hey i got Supreme commander and it looks fun but is there any way to change the camera angle it feels different like im looking straight down and not like C&C or CoH where its like a 45 degree angle

[jancuk9]

Suck my pussy asshole

[pkergod2be]

gunships? what gunships? 0.o tfuk 1:18

[xtron1234]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm this is very similar to my 20,000 flocks of deadly birds from total annihilation [LOL]

[09666slayer]

Reminds me of doing 200+ Brawler spamming on TA

[MushrooMars]

UEF commander: TREMBLE UNDER THE WRATH OF MY 500 OR SO GUNSHIPS!!!

Aeon flak guns: Nope, lol.

[SOMERANDOMGUYDOZ]

That's useless against my tactic. I always cover a big area with t3 point defences and anti-air SAMs at key points to defend the entire area. Nothing gets in my airspace and stays for long.

[joeliya73]

i had 300+ units on one match and my computer crashed!

[Recrafting]

500 gunships in bound sir!!!! WHAT DO WE DO?!?!?!?!??! *awkward pause* we wait...

[roflnichtrum]

no music bad!

[roflnichtrum]

no music



[warguy58]

The only thing I hate about this game is that you can fit 500+ air units in a small space making them unstoppable. Land and navy are different.

[MarcoTheGreat2008]

@warguy58 Not really, the T2 flak AA guns will tear apart tightly packed groups and air units have much weaker armour compared to land and naval units.

[warguy58]

@MarcoTheGreat2008 Yeah, it takes like, 5 to take out a boat, but it's still ridiculous.

[shadownet99]

[foggo24]

THis is my favourite tactic

[lightshot1]

send 500 gunships, lose 75 getting mass extractor......

[Galleriot]

Zerg is no longer the swarm race...

[ConstantinIV]

What killed them all in the end?

You still had about 150

[Lpoolboy]

Gotta love the evil snigger.

[unlovedFIGHTER]

What a turnado could have done here .... booooooooooooooooooooooom .. where da gunships cone ???

[dredgeco1]

@unlovedFIGHTER u really need to learn your vocabulary more

[unlovedFIGHTER]

@dredgeco1 well my vocab is kinna shit geos i HAVE to learn 4 languages plus i know german as first lang and englisch as 2 so D: life sucks bro

[Spartan7410]

@dredgeco1 What you should of said is " You really should extend your vocabulary", what you said was retarded friend.

[Nxtrobot97]

how hab your pc hold it out? o.O . My would have a blackscreen by 300 gunships

[aceofaces10]

I wish I had a NASA supercomputer too...

[TheMaximusmacro]

@aceofaces10 no you wish that daddy has lots of money like this kid :p

[ZaNosHkY]

@aceofaces10 Supercomputers sucks at playing games... the best supercomputer vs yours home pc in gaming..... = YOU WIN ! search wikipedia for supercomputers....

[thundrbug]

@ZaNosHkY i think your somehow missing the point of aceofaces10's comment

[ZaNosHkY]

@thundrbug nop i did get his intetion. but it's lame. =P

[MrLuisinh0]

@aceofaces10 Yeah !. my old Pentium 1 died triyng to install this game. : d

[Richco07]

NO NOT THE BEES!

[mikeypezza]

i want to buy it but im rather worried about my pc not handling requirements and ruining the game for me. i don't particularly know much about PC's. i have a emachines64x2 processor. 15 in 1 memory card reader, enough memory NVIDIA geforce....no idea about my graphic card

would i be able to view such large scale epic battles, even if i edit the screen using options?

[Dylantog]

@mikeypezza Give more information please, go to start and type DXDIAG (Vista/7) or go to run and type DXDIAG (XP) and give the information that is stated there.

[mikeypezza]

@Dylantog thanks but it works absolutely fine on my pc, unlike fm. despite the small memory. bit dissapointed that the multiplayer doesn't seem to work, aparently im banned

[Dylantog]

@mikeypezza FM ?

[mikeypezza]

@Dylantog football manager

[DrumCoversFromHell]

damn, this is outrageous!! =P At max i had 203 Exact, Of T2 UEF Ones and even at that, they took about a minute to kill a GC. Although thats Obviously the vanilla one i'm referring to, (SUP COM 1)

[pokemorgan]

But will it blend?

[hyperdude144]

Is it a good idea to microwave them?

[998dmm]

Our gunships will blot out the sun!

[Thejeanio]

massacre

[joselchulo1]

its like...matrix machine's swarm

[Deepyking1]

lol, he destroyed nearly 400 from the 500 gunships :P

[WhiteTiger225]

MY BIGGEST issue with this game was the anti aircraft XD Its like "WTF!? My Anti Aircraft turret can't shoot that bloody tech level 1 bot peashooting at it?" XD

But even in TA, gunships were always raep :p

[ThePotatoe777]

0:26 Enemy:"BOLLOCKS!"

[kilIershrimp]

Reminds me of clone wars.

[notsureyou]

lol scrolls in..... fps=.00001

;-P

[diogocentevintetres]

love this game

[fireflambe]

@diogocentevintetres same XD

[ghost1895live]

why are they tech 2 gunships make em broadswords and no one can stand up to them lol

[liamdudeeee]

@ghost1895live probably because it would take like a year to build 500 broadswords lol.

[skyeplus]

@liamdudeeee With Atlantis sub you can build T3 gunships almost seamlessly for yourself. It takes only 40 seconds for 1 T3 gunship(provided you have working economy). I believe 1 hour is enough for this :)

[ghost1895live]

@liamdudeeee But imagane the power ...... the enemy would be like OH HOLY SHIT WAT IS THAT ... WE ARE GOING TO FKIN DIE lol

[Mrnentendoman]

who needs strategy when you have a shitload of units

[ATOMICWATERSTUDIOS]

this is the pc version that one has 1000 units but the one for xbox 360 its only 500 but the thing in the game that gets me pissed off is that structers count as units in the one for xbox 360 they probly dont count as unites in pc

[MrAvalanchee]

@ATOMICWATERSTUDIOS they do for some reason

[skyeplus]

@ATOMICWATERSTUDIOS structures count as units in pc too

[maxipower44]

if you just have nuked them ):

i love nukes in supreme commander 1!

(exept if they are fired on me!)

[punisher17011990]

lal this is supreme commander but my hud looks completely different

[daveymickmc]

@punisher17011990 mayb ur playing forged alliance?

[jxchua554]

they look like sentinels in matrix

[Addictedtobullets]

one two three BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[cowboybeepbop1]

i see the possibility of ten gunships in that group there

[Sp3ctr354]

How many units could you have in the first one. I forgot?

[vilem94]

@Sp3ctr354 I think its a thousand units max, you have to increase the ammount of units in the game options first. I also think thats 1000 units per player.

[Sp3ctr354]

@vilem94 Okay.

[jussipejulliano]

@vilem94 in TA spring you can have more than 10,000 units per player!

And my cpu can handle only 5k with 3 times the speed

[daveymickmc]

@jussipejulliano what is TA?

[jussipejulliano]

@daveymickmc TA stands for Total Annihilation

The 1st game in the series of supreme commander..

TA spring is similar to it but better

[kanadiankid28]

@vilem94 I was playing just the other day and the game crashed once I hit 920 units. :( wasted time to the max

[jmdgrubb]

@vilem94 it's 2000, and you can download a mod that lets you raise it higher. I've had it up to 5000 with 5 players before on LAN. You need a super powerful processor to run it though, LOL.

[jmdgrubb]

@vilem94 It's 2000 and you can raise it higher with a mod download. I've had it up to 5000 with 5 players on LAN before.

[fluffy1108]

@vilem94 its 500 for the xbox 360

[TheVITOR1996]

@Sp3ctr354 1000

[Sp3ctr354]

@TheVITOR1996 Thanks.

[TheVITOR1996]

@Sp3ctr354 ur welcome

[Sp3ctr354]

@TheVITOR1996 Lol... okay.

[skyeplus]

@Sp3ctr354

500 units by default. And in campaign 300/400/500 units as the map size increased.

[Sp3ctr354]

@skyeplus Thanks.

[SlideR270295]

@Sp3ctr354 There is a mod that can make 2000 units per player.

[Sp3ctr354]

@SlideR270295 The information is great lol, but I don't have the game anymore haha...

[nlskiller]

@Sp3ctr354 yup 1000 per player but you can schange it yourself to like 500 or 200

[Sp3ctr354]

@nlskiller Oh okay. Thanks

[jacksparrow20111]

Tip: Load each Stinger with a Mech Marine for an extra 21 DPS, but that wouldn't work here because that would hit 1,000. Just saying. Plus for the same mass as 500 stingers, I think you could build a Mayor. Not sure, I'll have to check.

[incinerator327]

impressive. you should have had each of them carry a mech marine and then land and drop them off then see what happens

[MrJmandude]

i would b afraid XD

[MrHankkey93]

is this game the sequel to Total annihilation?

[CCCPGamingInc]

@MrHankkey93 not officially but most people say its the spiritual successor to TA and its made by the same mind (chris taylor)its worth picking up.

[MrHankkey93]

@CCCPGamingInc Huh, well i think ill stick with TA for now :) such a god damn awesome game. i REALLY hope they make another TA, same graphics and everything just with better AI, more maps, more options, and more EXPLOSIONS BITCHES

You cant disagree that that would be the coolest fukin thing ever right? :)

[CCCPGamingInc]

@MrHankkey93 well i never played ta but ive seen it before and if you ever get bored trust me this game is amazing!

[Deathbringer3557]

lol as soon as ur forces entered the enemys base bout 200 of em got air raped on sight!

[bR4GE]

laagg

[pireninja]

you must have been running a server

[CallMeSparky1]

this video makes my graphics card cry

[KidGamerJoePWNS]

@CallMeSparky1 lol

[BackstrokeOfTheWest]

ZERG RUSH KEKEKEKEKE

[cristian4anime2]

THATS NOTHING MORE THAN BAD LUCK:)

[rtsownage]

But... It's not over 9000!!! :(

[DareDevilK9]

we are the many we are the whole we are the future we.. are... ZERG

[SmkZeRo]

o-o... that was funny

[GothixZa]

hmmm, overkill?

[pireninja]

@GothixZa not actually, you could with he right gear take them down, i lost 100 tier 1 tanks taking down a line of point defense systems

[Safor002]

haha awesome

[tragicblackness]

He should have used Ctrl k so you can get a more cinematic view.

[MB0016]

@tragicblackness

evil bastard

[bughhy09]

anyone need an umbrela? an armored umbrela...

[shutup735]

It's rainin' gun ships! oh ya it's A rainin' gunships!

:P

[koko969w]

Holy crap... i want this game.

[dosFING]

The fact some people don't have it appalls me ... you poor, poor child ...

[Armonia94]

@vilem94 okej då vet vi...

[rhettnick]

wow

thats all i can say

wow.

[ColdButterfly]

Reminds me of Matrix: Reloaded

[jnsstudo]

DUDE i only need a few waves of 10 of then but thats enough for seven or so bases but i made a huge cazar and gunship swarm

[seg122]

@vilem94 nils luktar hårig balle varje dag men han säger att det är hans roll on som luktar så och att han inte vill sluta använda den för det är det dyraste märket

[branemark]

ITS OVER NINETHOUS........wait.....its not that many xD

[700gsteak]

for god sakes blow your nose before recording a video next time!!!

[AzaIndustries]

I did a 750 one and they just dropped like flies and barely killed anything in an enemies base.

[Legoreturns]

just look at the enemy's weakness and then use their weakness against em ;D

[frontlined97]

is there limit to units n structures? or is it a cheat?

[nastynic1979]

this whole game to all reviews seem to be based on lag, bit shit really

[vietstyle888]

lol i can see youre using tech 2 gunships

a swarm of tech 3's would make a bigger lag lol

[Fextuxx]

Vilhelm ericksonn lolwlaosdlasoda

sdas

[behemuth]

such a swarm is its own enemy, there would be 5-10 gunships stacked in even a missile's blast radius, two dozen flack turrets could kill all 500 of them if not quickly taken out : /

[isaacthegrape]

@behemuth Aggreed



[ThePearI]

@behemuth But this strategy wins every campaign. Get 200 gunships and send it to attack the ACU and voilà! You win

[behemuth]

@ThePearI except thats a load of bullshit, the latter half of the campaign sports numerous map expansions, and no intel on where the acu is at any time... the cpu will push you by sending waves of units at you while you have some for of time limit and or objectives to complete... sending 200 gunships hoping to spot the acu in the chaos is a horrible strategy, not to mention they will all die from a dozen flak turrets.

[ThePearI]

@behemuth Hmmm.. I usually do this as aeon or UEF with 3-10 experimental aircraft carries/factories. Obviously I will send out a spy to get the location of the ACU, then position my aircraft carries in an appropriate position, send out another spy plane while scrambling, and the just attack the ACU. It's won the campaign for me...

[behemuth]

@ThePearI which campaign? i've finished all three and i can't seam to remember beating the enemy acu was the win condition, you still had to complete the objectives/waves within the timer (black sun)

and lastly, if you had enough control of the mission to amass such an armada, then you could have won in any way you choose... if you managed to get the AI under control you can win in any way you deem most amusing you know... does not mean the gunship spam = good, just that you could pull it off

[Ginteru]

@behemuth

But the firepower! Think of the massive firepower!

[HassiraNathalii]

@Ginteru mmm idk, it would look more like a swarm of locusts, iprefer naval bombardment with battleships, exp bots, artillery and tier 3 bots/bombers. i mostly use gunships as an extension of my firebases.

[Galacticmaster]

@Ginteru

erm, no

the gunships would only be level 2 tech - enemy most likely to be level 3 so basically no real damage, and no firepower

this really fustrates me though, as soon as you go up in tech, most of the low tech units become redundant

[dANNNimal]

@Galacticmaster thats the general idea with technology no?

[Galacticmaster]

@dANNNimal

not really, because when i played the game, this feature made the game basically limited and fruitless,

i think command and conquer illustrated the idea of tech quite well constantly being used

[Petersaberros]

@behemuth at 1:00 he was down to 157 gunships

[behemuth]

@Petersaberros yeah,, ; S amassing them like that is like you're begging to loose them. i can see it working as a very very quick way to eradicating a base... but then you'd have to divide those 500 in 5-10 groups and hotkey them. then as fast as possible, have each group attack 3-4 structures in succession. 50-100 gunships in 10-5 swarms would be far far harder for massed flak or AA defenses to handle. by the you were down to 157, every single structure should be destroyed, as with AA's

[Petersaberros]

@behemuth that's how I do it, mass up to 200 and make 5 control groups. Attack from 3 or more sides, 2 or more places at the same time.

[behemuth]

@Petersaberros i always send multiple groups of spy planes to divert AA guns first, while they are in reload, or fixed on a spy plane, my bombers/gunships groups take out the primary AA installations of the firebase/base. its a sleek operation which demands concentration. but the payoff is well worth it. in a way, it is why i feel that sup com is the only RTS, apart from TA that does air power right.

[TheKingmanUltra]

@behemuth Generally a swarm of fighters and bombers, followed by dropships. When the ground units take on the air defense, the second wave comes to help with ground turrets. Also why I feel like Supreme Commander is one of the few that actually has strategy, at least in real time.

[behemuth]

@TheKingmanUltra Well it has that strategy, and as many as you can think of, there are numerous different ones, some you have t make up on the fly to counter your opponents unorthodox defense layout or troop composition. which is why it is always important to scout a lot.

[dinjin201]

@behemuth This is very true. If you ever end up with a force like this, it's best to deploy ~100 to attack one area, draw the troops away, and then keep them dancing around (attack different sides of teh base, etc.) grouped together, T2 AA flak can take them out in no time... But if you split your forces, you may even end up catching a commander undefended or a base left for the taking, creating a quick path to decisive victory.

[behemuth]

@dinjin201 I always take out the enemy commander by massing spyplanes and putting them on patrol over the enemy base, followed by a small band of tier 3 gunships to occupy the AA for a few seconds, and strategic bombers to take out the commander.

but my fav way of engaging enemy bases will always be naval bombardment... something poetic about 10 BS's shelling a base.

[daM1NT3]

LOL its such a big swarm that it lags!!

[Maximus317]

lol...swarm of death and destruction xD

[jostlan]

lol... imagining some tiny bot in their base going 'HOLY SHIT ITS RANING GUNSHIPS!'

[aaron654lo]

[Danushk0]

total anihilation was much better game...this is far not so good like old original

[AuthenticUSA]

@Danushk0

Total Annihilation still Rock

but Sucom have better visual LOL

hope Sucom 2 will improve gameplay experience

[ImperialArmour]

@AuthenticUSA

well as we all as TA fans can generally agree now that supcom 2 was a big shift to cater to the mainstream, and overall a huge disappointment.

TACC and Cavedog FTW.

[parkourboy10]

hes cp will break hahahaha

[BlahBlah5649]

Why don't you just track one of theme so we can get a better moving picture? Hit "t" while having one selected so we can get a constantly smooth-moving camera. Then, zoom out so we can see all of them.

[fudgyboo7687]

AHHH, death from above!!!!

[TyriaelSoban]

best defense against aircraft in vanilla supcom i found was shields and t2 AAFA (anti air flak arty) platforms, the sam's rounds dont travel fast enough to intercept even most t2 air units and t1 gear just ... lets not even go there, its like kids trying not to pee on the seat.

[Tinyunknown]

how can u get 500+ gunships i thought max  limit was only 500

[broninion]

u can change the cap to even higher

[MeTaLowy2]

only to 1k max ;/ i want moooooreeee ;(

[MrNudlauge]

@Tinyunknown absoloute max is 1000

you can change it in skirmish
