    Supreme Commander is shit. It's a good thing RTS genre is dead.

    It's not true in sc2 (where rush is very strong in 2v2), neither in FA. The key here is Seton's Clutch, a very big map infamously know to favor late tech (because of how long it is to attack), which is why this map is popular at low level and hated at medium/high level. Nomask probably has seen his scrub "expert" friend playing on this scrub map and has drawn of it stupid conclusion.

    Seton's Clutch isn't a "very big" map. And it has happened on every map I have played. One was the one with the big center island and what, six?, smaller islands scattered around it. The players would start in the smaller islands. Another is a 2v2 desert map with a mountain range going from almost top to almost bottom in the middle of it. Another is the very small island map with one island in the middle and four corners of land (was the name Four Corners?). And so on. Every. Fucking. Map.

    Anyway, IF IT'S NOT A PROBLEM FOR YOU GOOD FOR YOU BRO, JUST IGNORE OK?

    I would nega-fist Skyway but I can't do that, so fisting you will have to suffice.

    :bro:

    Supreme Commander wasn't as good as Total Annihilation, but it was far from shit and I had quite a bit of fun playing it.

    SupCom is still one of the most played RTS of the past decade and also it's good. If he had said SupCom2 I'd brofisted, but this, this is an outrage.

    I wish games like Supreme Commander would be more popular than Starcraft 2 so it'd be easy to get to play them. Nothing better than constantly bashing somebody's Mass Extractors down when they scramble for whatever tier units they felt like they want to build.

    The game is good but why use a nooby 16-player (!?) game as an example?

    Its a kind of honesty. This is the game (map mod players skill level) most people play. Ok not THAT nubish but close.

    it has AI but as with all spring games it's not very good and the game is heavily focused on cooperative multiplayer.
