Wonder who is the sad no life that’s DDOSing FAF and annoying people in lobbies

@xsdna afaik, the hosting company FAF used to use was being pretty shitty and changes are being done to get into even better seevers

@ernestfeed I feel like you came at a bad time, the server will be changed soon so please be patient. It’s free after all

I love the new change, makes the maps feel more original and less “robotic”/copies of the previous iteration.

Every little improvement comes a long way, didn’t even realize all mapgen maps always have big blue water until now. Much cooler that they will change to the correct biome!

@rowey alright, lets focus on the paying me part B)

No but for real, I've been doing that, sadly it just hasnt been FAF related but with my new experiences/projects I come back a better developer to help here.

You need to pay me to do video tutorials on everything, think people would play more if there were clear tutorials on how to improve.

Also I need to improve the website and create a much better infrastructure for tournaments and newshub…

@jip i mean I will always stick for the website, no matter what position or lack of I have, I just want someone that has a bigger passion and is known to the community to lead the promo team

@xiaomao I asked him, albeit FtX has unconventional methods/rough in the edges, I do think he has the autism drive to do alot of stuff if he really wants to. And right now I think we need someone with the drive to do stuff

@captainklutz Yeah you are doing wonderful babe, I love you and your work with the newshub

@one-above-all not sure what the point of this would be? or what exactly you want to implement

Hello everyone, as some of you may know, I've been pretty much afk from FAF in the past months. I haven't really done much after finishing the new website. Nonetheless, I was still given the role of promotions team lead and I don't believe I'm a good fit for the role. I'm not passionate about social media or promotions as I'm with development. I wouldnt mind something as web dev team lead thou...

Anyhow, I'm making this post looking for people that want to become more involved with the promotions team and possibly get the position of promo team lead themselves if proven worthy. I know Rowey, CaptainKlutz and Spikey Noob do stuff here and there for promotions but I wished there was someone really passionate about this AND that has time to lead the team in a meaningful matter (maybe one of the current teammembers will volunteer? xd).

As of right now, I'm simply a key bearer making sure others can contribute to promotions easily by providing them with the appropriate credentials. Not sure if its time to put the promo lead role to sleep or if someone else wants to start contributing now and implement their own vision into FAF promotions/marketing...

I just don't want the next dude to go full afk/be some bureaucratic dumbass and slow down other people that want to contribute to FAF promotions.

@blodir yeah this tier list rules, would be about the same

Albeit I see the frustration of some people with the similarity of the models, these changes will be better long term.

Jip and co get feedback and improve on the models, then we get better animations / looking structures and so on.

Again, I understand the frustration but every development proceess takes times and testing in production to get real data. Only so much you can do with a few people working on something new

What made you stop playing ladder

Too much work, got to 1.6k and it feels like I either need to know the BOs or I'm going to get crushed by better players. Too much of a time investment to get better and also not finding players quickly.

Have you tried a ladder game? If so, what has the experience been to date?

Amazing, best FAF game mode. Feels like its the only place where T3 and experimentals are epic strong units and not just your day to day. Love how T1 and T2 have such a huge role and aren't trash after minute 10.

Also love the fact that agression is rewarded and stalling is punished. I absolutely hate with my whole being a match where nothing is happening because attacking is going to put you at a disadvantage.

How much often did you play it before?

everyday 3-6 matches

What would motivate you to play ladder once more or try it out.

mapgen only queue maybe, feel like 1v1 mapgen would be really good than our current state.

What you find uninviting about it since you have not tried it?
Lack of knowing who's playing, I see 5 people in queue, is it 5 800? is there a 1400 in there? Waiting multiple resets is pretty annoying not knowing if Im the odd one or what.

@zeldafanboy I like it more mute than the super bright and shiny current versions. Gives it a better look

@ftxcommando the issue is a SP campaign is stationary while multiplayer meta is dynamic. Obviously SP could teach certain concepts that are core fundamentals but sometimes devs don’t know how multiplayer will develop (like in a new game).

I don’t think so, they don’t guarantee a game/demo to their current patrons, they are using volunteers (to make a paid game, mind you), and they invest more into marketing and shiny displays than significant stuff…

Supcom took 3 years of a full time staff to be done, a full PAID staff of experienced devs. Sanctuary has 2k a month to pay themselves and then uses volunteers as free labor to their paid game…

I don’t think they’ll be able to come even close to FA, they just don’t have the resources for it. I think they have 2 years in development and they still don’t have any decent gameplay whatsoever?

To me it all sounds like they are thirsty for investor money and that’s why they are focusing so hard on the marketing department

Just a total lack of man power, if Nomads and Balance team had a full staff, maybe it could be possible, I’d be happy with a fifth faction to add more spice to the game.

However, this would need a dev staff for nomads, and for balance team to have much more time in their hands to balance all of these things.

Afaik Nomads development stopped because most devs either stopped working on it or don’t want people changing Nomads. I recall some people I know trying to contribute but being met with a lot of bureaucracy from nomad devs about their vision and what they want implemented…

@t_r_u_putin yes but that’s for dual gap. Outside of dual gap, one nukes makes opponents create 3-5-8 SMDs, easily making the nuke pay itself off just in making opponents waste stuff on SMD and then nuke can still destroy armies/navy, adding more value to itself
