Maybe I am not fully aware of the economic forces behind this franchise, but I cannot imagine there being enough of a market to justify remastering this game.
Interesting fact, a lot of people talked about how terrible Supremme Commander 2 turned out, but if you look at the graphs, the popularity of SC:FA was not much more than SC2. If you look at the graph, this was the case until approximately June 2022. I'm wondering what's causing this online growth in SC:FA in 2022?

We are
The client can register itself as the game, bumping the numbers in Steam.
-
We wonder this too - why specifically such a huge jump in a short amount of time?
-
that was when the feature got introduced in the client. Before that the faf players were invisible on steam
-
That is when the FAF client started allowing people with steam installed on their machine to report their FAF playtime as scfa playtime

Thanks!

In some ways you are right, the game is really dead and no one plays it. If you look at the graphs, online SC:FA is equal to online SopCom 2. So why will the publisher remaster SC1 or SC:FA? Why doesn't the publisher make a remaster of SupCom 2? The publisher doesn’t care what you personally like, he needs financial indicators.
Why do you need to make a remaster or sequel for SC1:FA? Why not SC2? Maybe more people are playing SC:FA? No, no more, according to Steam charts: https://steamcharts.com/cmp/9420,40100#All -

UPDATE thx for @dragonite

The fact that nomads is mentioned and is not even part of the main game and is not even complete/under active develop so this wasn't the best thing to even bring up. Something like this should really Go though the community manager/promotion team/ associate as this is been asked in the behalf of faf

(it is from January, 2020)

@veteranashe So at the time it was under active development and much more hyped, so a lot less strange to mention in the email.
