When units vet, they get LARGER

I like the flags. I like meeting people from our worldwide and getting a hint on language and location. I hope it comes back

Hosted a local area network (LAN) party with 5 computers successfully playing FAF from one IP address. This used to be a problem.

ACU and all units increase is physical size as they vet.

@elmi To limit people spamming pause, host the game with only 3 pauses.

Nice strategy!

On Dual Gap, most any reasonable strategy with a coordinated team can win against a passive team. My point is part of your success is just using team tactics.

I'll see games where a high rated player joins and strat or nuke rushes, only lose because nobody follows through.. the opponent team just rebuilds.

Sharing engies is enormously powerful in the game. Play as a team = win as a team

Also, there is a super cool replay analysis tool which can show you across many game how quickly someone built Mavor or Yolo etc.. https://kazbek.github.io/FAF-Analytics/ReplayAnalysis

Unfortunately it is not working at the moment, perhaps due to the DDOS attack on FAF.

If WebRTC fits, move forward with it. People will be more accepting of the disconnects knowing there is a path forward.

Let us know what help is needed. Your leadership is appreciated.

Sorry to have shared it. Should I delete?

*** update - apparently this is fixed and LAN is fully supported by FAF allowing people to all connect from behind a router such as at a home or LAN cafe -- I have not tested this but those on this thread say so ***

Support for LAN play is important!!!

I hosted family and friends for a FAF LAN party. Foolishly I thought we could all play together. No, it was a nightmare of apologies and delays. Everyone bought the game and had FAF. But, FAF does NOT support LAN play without extraodrinary hoops which are hard to follow. I was able to get a subset of people to play, some VPNed to come back into the game remotely. It frustrates me just thinking about it.

That said, I'm okay with having a faforever login requirement. For me, I just want LAN support.

Great Work!

A UEF heavy point defense or a Mavor would be fun.

FAF would patch your game to play old videos. It doesn't now? I'd be VERY SAD to miss this feature!!!

I don't see a good solution for this beyond just playing through the overratedness.

Similar to how players who focus on Astro or Gap and are thus overrated will stay playing Astro or Gap.

Any means to quickly demote would be exploited by jerks who like to smurf.

Some players like a lower pressure match

There is some loss of efficiency in overlapping sheilds, right? In other words, an arty shot will damage multiple shields simultaneously.

So there may be efficiency in working different shield heights (t2 unit shields, UEF bubble SACUs, T2 shields, T3 shields, and different factions). Right wrong?
