As a TA fanboi, I'm drooling after this. I really hope they can pull it off decently.

Having the very same hopes here. But i guess they will. Oh man, being able to fight from other planets. So epic. I think this requires a new sub-genre in the RTS genre. Like...

Too epic to be genred- genre? ;D

Looks alot of fun, seems kinda like Supreme Commander 2, but with a twist with several planets and space and such.

Oh  *deleted*  no. SupCom 2 was an abomination. Play the first one, you won't feel guilty about playing it unlike 2

I took one look at it and turned away. FA is my favorite RTS by far.

this looks brilliant if they can get funded and pull it off.

on the other topic here. i liked the original supreme commander much more than its successor.

You won't be able to refit fighters and bombers at all. They're designed/balanced around having a particular set of weapons and would be very broken if you could change it. Which ones you pick for your fleet -out of quite a few that are available- is the choice here, not how they're outfitted.

I played the *** out of Monday Night Combat on the 360. I'm hoping Uber Entertainment could make a good RTS as well.

I sent a message to them via Kickstarter's messaging system. Thought you'd all want to see the correspondence:


Me:

Will the resource model be like TA, like SupCom 2, or something else entirely?

TA/SupCom 1's resource model wasn't perfect, but it was unique and I liked it mostly.
SupCom 2's resource model was identical to that of every other RTS that comes to mind.

What will Planetary Annihilation do?

Is it too early in the project to ask?

Also I love you guys.

- T


Uber Entertainment:

Like TA.


Me:

Awesome :D

I love the graphic style, I hope they stick with that. Low poly means LOTS of units.
