    So, for any of you old school gamers, you may remember a series called Supreme Commander, and if you're really old school, you may even remember Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance. What Forged Alliance Forever (or FAF) is is a mod to rebalance and bring multiplayer back to Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance. If you played Forged Alliance before all you need to do is go here: http://www.faforever.com/, install the game and then install the mod (install is disk or Steam). The game is 15$ on Steam, and is easily one of the better 15$ you'll ever spend.

    Yes, that is a ship with legs. And a 50 foot tall robot, with quad proton cannons, why do you ask?

    Those chicken robots are about 70 feet tall.

    If you're seeing this, chances are that base is either gone or going to be gone.
    And remember, unite against the villainous Seraphim and Illuminate!

    That old game where you could play as on out of 3 armies and control tanks, build builings and command giant robot killing machines? Good times.

  3. Wasn't Supreme Commander a competitive game in the first place? Could some not-chobo explain to me why fans needed to mod it?






    btw, 2007 is not old school at all, lol

    I only played supcom 2, and the only problem I had with that is that aircraft don't properly collide with eachother/the terrain.
    It would be way more awesome if they actually crashed into the trees/mountains/eachother then clipping though them.

    Ej, there are websites dedicated to mods of this game.

    Also, I'm curious why you posted pictures of the vanilla game and not even of the mod itself?

    FAF isn't necessarily a mod, as all it really aims to do is to fix some rather *gross* imbalances (they went the ASF fix route) and to restart the Matchmaking service, as GPG shut down last year so noone can play anymore. And 2007 is oldschool to me :p
    The base FAF mod doesn't add anything, just some rebalances, and most of its aim was to restart the ability to have multiplayer matches.

    When it said old school i laughed.

    Old school and 3D don't go together.

    You obviously never played any of the first gen 3D games, did you?

    You obviously don't know how old i am.

    But you are right. After i posted that, a few games came to mind but didn't care enough to edit the post.
