IMO Supreme Commander failed to capture the original game's soul. You had a sense of an epic battle going on when playing. I think it was because it always devolved into playing all zoomed out, watching tiny strategic icons moving across the map, blinking and disappearing. I can't even tell you what any of the units looked like because we almost never see them. The fact that they gave generic names to units and structures such as "level one point defence turret" didn't help either.
BAR does a much better job of keeping the player zoomed in and into the action, seeing and feeling so the cool details of the battle going on. Heavy plasma batteries blowing up chunks of advancing armies and terrain, lasers blowing up individual targets in rapid succession, sending debris flying everywhere, this was all what TA was about.
I understand that, but if a third-party was to make a mod that restores the old names, I don't see how they could possibly be held legally liable for it.
This is an interesting point. It could be pure coincidence but we can't overlook the fact that Musk's actions noticeably changed from helping to hinder Ukraine's war efforts not too long after a phone call with Putin.
I'm calling it: they're going to have Palantir set them up with a database of likely Democrat voters paired with facial recognition and detain everyone who is a positive match on their way to the polls until the polling station closes.
And then they'll have the mail-in votes thrown out.
I think that being a billionaire makes this even worse. Because they can hire professional experts to look after every "small details" so they are invisible to them so running an extremely complex project appears simple and easy.
That's how you end up Elon Musk believing he is a rocket science expert.
We should put out a ransom for the video.
GoFundMe anyone?
