    The current pre-release of the client ("pioneer" in the version) is only compatible to itself. So you can only play with other testers. Please be aware!

      I´ve seen youtube videos where aparently people get pre-set suport commanders out of portal tech 3

      Do i need to set up those pre-sets in game?
      So if i get portal i can get RAS suport ACU right out of portal to eco-whore? I think ive seen people do this in astro crater...
      Or a full combat set?

      If seen people surround the portal with tech 2 mass fabricators, is it good???

        the portal has pre-set support commanders in it's unit construction selection.

        surrounding a factory with any mass generation buildings (mexes or fabricators) gives it a % discount on consumption of mass, so it can be useful

          Nope, part of FAF by default

          Yes

          Or a full combat set?

          Yes

          It won't hurt, but I don't think it makes a huge difference. You can find a list of adjacency bonuses here. I don't remember if RAS specifically has lowered adjacency values and the wiki isn't updated or if it's blanket for the quantum gate.

              Yes, although you can also launch the client offline via C:\ProgramData\FAForever\bin\ForgedAlliance.exe

                @deribus Thanks.
                Also ive seen some videos where Cybran ACU was cloaked and lasering 2 chickens while they could do nothing.

                Is target ground the only counter to that? except for omni.

                  You could also snipe the enemies energy.
