@Nuggets @Paradox_of_War I wasn't suggesting a change per say. I was suggesting playing the campaigns of the OG games and then See what you think should be adjusted. I think some of the balance from the original FA and OG SupCom would be nice for the game. But that is my opinion. So plz take it with a grain of salt. Not trying to insult people here

@coolburn @BassJunkie_1 @ShooterMcGavin @Yeager I am able to log in to FAF now I think the problem was finally fixed

Just a heads up for anyone who hasn't played the original FA. In the mission where you get the satellites, aka Novax, Even if you build a novax the nuke defense in QAI's base shoots down your satellites. Most people are unaware of this fact.
Also, IMO, I think scathis should go back to what it used to be. With FAF being down, I have gone back to playing the Original Games of FA and OG SupCom and it takes some time getting used to it again. Missions are harder than in FAF and Endgame experimentals like Sat Nuke Mavor and Salv take forever to build. Most people who haven't played FA don't know that FAF actually dumbed down the time in which it takes for things to build. For example; nukes take 45 minutes to load. Yes, I said 45 minutes. even with 30 SACU Engineering Suites it takes the 5 minutes to load. Also you don't get the option to make a ras or engineering support com, you have to upgrade each individual support commander manually. Only one upgrade at a time. Support Comms also take 5 minutes to build and have way more health than FAF Support Comms. Max Vet Cloaked Cybran Support Coms have 500 HP shy of 80k HP.
Shields Don't share Damage. Air wreckage passes through the shields instead of Bouncing off. Time to build things is longer. Strat Bombers 4 minutes for example. Asfs 2 Minutes Battleships 6 minutes. It is a much longer game than faf is. Much more difficult too. Mass Fab t2 is 100 E consumption Mass Fab t3 in campaign is 1k E multiplayer is 3k.
What I am saying is that if you want a real challenge for a game try the OG and FA SupCom Missions in the actual games. You may find it harder for you to actually Micromanage.

I cannot access Discord Server

@coolburn yes the DevOps team is looking into the issue. No updates as of yet though the moderators will let people know when the problem is fixed
@magge any updates?

There is a fix to Rebel's Rest that is easy to do
Delete the v.0001 in the folder name and the mission works like a charm
@Reckless_Charger
@Redfox
@magge

Pretty sure the whole server is down

@magge @ShooterMcGavin I just noticed this but when you try to log in to the game it doesn't show the server to log into. I wonder if that is part of the problem?

@magge Thank you for the update. Please keep us updated on the issue. I really appreciate it.

@ShooterMcGavin It's been hard enough to just play the campaign. The Client made my computer force restart the other day and now I can't even play it. I only play the campaign and modded multiplayer. Ranked and Rating do not matter to me. Tbh I would still be a 0 Rating if a 1500 Rated person didn't control+k to give me a higher rating so I could play in other games because he recognized that I had some talent. I play Faf for the fun of it. Modded campaigns are fun. Sometimes having too much fun, you forget the enemy has nukes and you die because no SMD LMAO. Having to deal with client issues every day is a hassle all on its own. This is pushing my irritation

@ShooterMcGavin Everything is going haywire today. It's been hard enough to try and keep the client open and now i can't even get past the logging in screen

They did Maintenace about 3 hours ago and i haven't been able to log in since.

Having the same issue

Just curious about this, but what if you could play the campaign as just a support commander instead of the actual commander.

Now I know this sounds retarded to most of you but think about this for a moment. Everyone seeks a challenge in most games but what if the support commander you spawn as is all you get for commanders. Relying on engineers for build power sounds easy but in all actuality, it is very difficult for other missions. For example, the final missions for Cybran and Aeon OG campaigns Are very difficult with Just your commander for build power. Support Commanders make it easy but what if you only have 1 support commander and no other commanders for build power. I will tell you it gets much more difficult.

Just a thought I had today. I do tests on missions when I get some weird ideas. This was my weird idea for today. I may not be experienced in multiplayer, but I am experienced in the campaigns. I ran through some of the missions today where I only use a support commander as my commander and use engineers for build power. You would be surprised by how much pain it is to play the last mission of the og campaign of Aeon using just a support commander and engineers. SMDs are a must and keeping shields up is impossible when having to deal with Exps and t3 Arty and Nukes. Making it through the mission is rough. if you lose the control center, you have to restart the mission

I'm just saying that if people are looking for a challenging campaign maybe try that.

@QuantumTyphoon You were right, but one thing I wanted to mention to you beforehand was the fact I stopped playing the game a long time ago. Yes, my ego got the best of me, but things have gotten better. Tbh I came back to FAF just to play the campaign. I don't play anything else anymore and if I do, I usually leave because I have lost touch with RTS games in general.

To answer your question, yes, I have been playing Supreme Commander since it's launch in November 2007. Though to be fair, I don't play the multiplayer. Was never interested in it. My time in FAF FA and OG, I usually never played multiplayer. I only played with friends and we basically just goofed off.

I would like to apologize for being just an a. hole last time. You were not the reason I left FAF so long ago. Harassment was a common thing for me but I played unusual. I guess I had the harassment coming because of it.

This is ITS_TIME_TO_DUEL btw. Hopefully one day, I can be civil with people and not get so angry all the time. Being autistic, it is very hard for me to understand the room or sarcasm

I hope that all is well with you and that you are enjoying a good life. RTS games are my escape even though i am not good at them. I have nothing else to do in life and I suck at the one thing I love to play

I can enter the mission, but My Commander doesn't spawn, and Mission does not continue after I enter. I have also tried seeing replays of Rebel's Rest, but it doesn't show anything. I can see the Commander upgrading later in the mission of the replay, but I can't actually see the commander or the mission.

I was wondering if this was a glitch or file malfunction.

I have tried extracting the file, but my FAF doesn't run in the file mentioned in other discussions.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance
This is the file name that runs FAF on my PC and I can't get it to Run anywhere else.

Can I get some help here please. I really wish to try the full experience of the campaign missions that are made by FAF. Some other missions are glitched just like this for me. I was wondering if someone can tell me what I am doing wrong

@ss_rakesh said in Can't Host new Co-OP Mission - Overlord Surth-Velsok:

C:\ProgramData\FAForever\user\My Games\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\maps

File name doesnt exist in the folders for my Windows PC. C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance That is the file location I have to play SupCom FAF and it won't let me add the missions to the game. I have tried to do this with Rebels Rest as well doing the same things you say in this post and it just doesn't work

@melanol Totally I play the way i wanna play. I have been playing unrated supremacy games cuz thats how i used to play back in the day. Does not matter the map i will always play unrated cuz its no fun dealing with people who just do not care about you all they care about is their wins to losses ratio

@magge Do the moderators actually do something? Every time I try to report someone it never gets answered. The reason I stopped playing faf for almost six months was because of this Harassment I got last time

@melanol Feel that 100%
