Low Elo Cast #3 - Playing Against a Turtle - Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance Forever
New players tend to struggle against turtles (aka extremely defensive players). Will the turtle hold out and retaliate with overwhelming artillery, or will the shell be cracked?
Cheers, and thanks for watching!

    @Myth0l0gic 13 днів тому

    Recommend mentioning to not queue up more than 5-10 orders on your initial engineers coming off the line--especially if they're building on the front line and without an escort. Just wasted clicks and wasted time queueing up orders if that unit gets destroyed early, which is likely.

    @Triaxx2 13 днів тому

    So... yes and no on the early factories. It makes a slight difference depending on the map, but unless you NEED big eco, engies can usually build the base just as well as the commander. On a small map, factory ->4 mexes -> walk com is the usual front rush strat, though the number of trees then dictates whether the engies start reclaiming hard or building energy. Especially in that spot where 4 mantis conquered and held the extractors, the com would have been able to build that spot because it could kill the Mantis.

Since I won't contribute to FAF anymore, I'll just leave the link to the non-audio version here if someone wants to take a look or if someone wants to make an airguide out of it. Plan was to simply pause the video smts and go over the gameplan and situations. ua-cam.com/video/mPtkddDG5Lo/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Sladow

    • @sladow5975
      @sladow5975 6 днів тому

      ​@@MarudaVexno Of course, I'll try and break it down. 1) Not enough appreciation For the things I've done (the guides in collab with the trainer team and a shit ton of replay reviews over the last years) there was simply too much negativity. The ppl I made the reviews / guides for were thankful and I highly appreciated that, besides that there were a lot of unnecessary comments. I did have some beef with some people which definitely is also my fault, but I'm not referring to those. I'm more referring to comments from e.g. Archsimkat. After Bully switched his name to mine for memes, they apparently had a round and I just read on Discord (you can filter for the exact wording) "Oh you were Bully? I thought you were Sladow. Genuingely thought I had Sid and Sladow on my team so I was just like it's over anyways", which is just unnecessary. We never had beef (nor is he stronger than me but I never commented on that) so getting those random comments from different directions is just exhausting. 2) Man Power FAF lacks manpower. In every team. Dunno how much you followed me, but I was in the balance, matchmaker, association team and team lead of the trainers, yet in every team the activity was simply not given. My threads in the balance team got ignored for muiltiple months before I asked Jip to implement it, then suddenly ppl were like "nooo you cannot do that". Happened more than one time and Jip can probably tell you more about how frustrating it is to deal with some ppl there. I did sort out the trainer team by kicking any inactive trainer, together with advertising on other Discords some people joined. Together with the goals / to do list I've set up with them in a meeting trainer team is completely functional currently. The others are not (Shoutout to Storm for creating all the map pools on his own). 3) Moderators Some moderators really shouldn't be moderators or at least shouldn't have such a behaviour (Archsimkat - the dude I mentioned before - is a moderator btw). To understand the following part, a bit of context: The high ranks in FAF are a very small circle which only really play against each other all the time. The only lobbies you'd get were during weekends or when Farms was streaming. We meme'd around quite a bit, basically moderated ourselves (E.g. kicking people after they base ctrl+k'ed when others disapproved and even created an own rule document so the moderators leave us alone). Recently we changed names for fun, then the mods suddenly introduced a rename rule change which increases the time you can change your rename from 1 month to 1 YEAR. Worst thing is that they didn't have a single good reasoning (literally) for justifying that rule, nor did they listen to the insane critics. In short it was like ".. We cannot give you a good reason. But we'll introduce it anyway cuz fuck you, the silent majority wants it.", see the thread on the forum for details. I've counted and around 23 known high ranks left FAF / became inactive during the last year meaning even if Farms streams, the chance of getting a lobby definitely became smaller. Besides that the actions of the past months were just horrible. E.g. I had quite some friends on the FAF Discord and I mainly contributed cuz of the chill teams. Stryder and I always called each other "retard" for fun, apparently after doing that for over a year using the word "retard" is not allowed anymore. And the context doesn't matter. I can fully see giving ppl a timeout if they mean it as a serious insult, but Stryder getting one after calling me "retard" which was obviously a joke is just over the top. Those were just two examples, there are some good comments on the "Why everything sucks now"-thread made by BlackYps on the Forum. So overall, FAF's infrastructure is quite bad, the moderators got way worse and especially lately it seems their only goal is to enforce stupid rules "cuz why not" (again, for details check the Forum. I'm not exaggerating.). I cannot deal with the shit anymore of people arguing about balance like "revert old mercies!! balance team is elitist and ruins FAF!!" while not getting any support but negativity from the other sides as well. Hope that gave an insight. I *personally* do NOT recommend contributing to FAF. I've talked with other people (in and outside FAF) and projects like BAR are straight up superior in any given way when it comes to infrastructure etc. I'm still active on two FAF Discords (GreenSquier's included) where I'm still giving advice / training though.

    • @TheGreenSquier
      @TheGreenSquier 28 днів тому

      It will always take some brain tax to defend things, but the main ways would be to assist an engineer with a scout / LAB combo (easy), retreat with the engineer if you notice radar signatures close by (takes some periodic checking), or try to reclaim the tank before it kills your engineer (hard) For bombers, you better have some interceptors built, otherwise the engineer will probably die lol. You can try to micro the engineer to avoid the bombs, but that will only delay the inevitable unless you can kill the bomber

  • @sladow5975
    @sladow5975 Місяць тому

    Time for ranting! B) 8:50 I do not suggest to ring any T1 nor T2 radars. Why? - Bc they're at front aka. in a greater danger and they make a much more juicy target for random bombers which you're unlikely to stop if more things are going on. Just keep the PGs in the base 12:50 Not a huuuge fan of the template bc of one reason: Energy storages cost a shit ton of mass (250 mass per storage aka nearly 5 tanks). If you queue up these templates, you're most likely building storages when you do not even need them, so I'd recommend doing a PG only grid and add it manually once you need it. (Will you forget it from time to time? Yes. Do I forget it a lot of times? Yes. This point prob comes down to preference and the ranking we're talking about, it's just my PoV so always take it with a grain of salt) 20:15 Put the scout first, it's useful not only for scouting the base early but if you send it over a side you can spot either engis you can raid or other raid parties coming towards your own engis. I'd also recommend a lower ratio such as 4:1 (or even 3:1 early on if we're talking about larger maps) 22:00 There's an option so you do not have to do this anymore. If engis assist a mex, it automatically upgrades&pauses at the same time, so you can just support every mex you want with engis and it'll do its thing on its own 23:50 Infinite engis except on very small maps with barely reclaim* (e.g. Theta Passage) 28:50 was about to add this as it happened to myself way too often xd Other than that, great stuff! Thanks for putting this together! <3

    Its the aeon t1 tank that shoots way further than its visual range. You want to mix in artillery with your tanks as those really benefit from recon and deal huge damage. However for scouting/early raids use the light attack bots or gamble on a bomber. Light attack bots are super fast for hitting extractors or engis. A bomber costs more power and needs a different build order.

    There reason or explanation why you want to make power generators 1rst is that 650 starting mass is a lot of mass, while 4000 starting power is not a lot of power and power will run out very quick if you don't make power generators early

    I usually built one factory and one mass extractor before sending com, has the meta changed?

      I used to only build 1 factory and then send my comm out, but I often noticed my enemy raised a bigger army faster than me. Whatever works for you is great, but yeah I'd probably build out the initial base a bit more and see how it goes

    Ah man thank you for this haha. My group of friends and I play every week and I've been stressing build orders to them to help them not get flattened out

    Was just about to get back in to FAF and wondered if my old build orders were still good, then this pops up, nice.

    For me the biggest suprise with seraphim was the nuke-facility. Everyone knows that it requires 2 anti-nukes to get it down and most people know it has a lot bigger aoe than a standard nuke. But here's another one: it costs almost no mass to build nukes once the building is done, making it only energy hungry instead of mass and energy.

    Hardest thing for me is Sorian AIX, tier 3 battleships by 12 mins while also spamming everything under the sun is annoying. if its just land I can hold and beat it thinking not enough free t1 Engineer on auto mass reclaim to help push economy to beat AIX Income

    A lot of this stuff needs to be baked in. It bothers me how much best practice that literally all skilled players are expected to do and know isn't automated. And I think this contributes to why playing vs AI is no fun because AI doesn't do these things and is thus extremely weak for it. It ruins immersion for me when best practice isn't automated because it reminds me this isn't a real living society, these units aren't alive, don't evolve, don't think, etc. On thing PA does better than FA on this front is structure commands and area targeting. At least in this way I can fake some best practice by say making a factory with orders to reclaim the entire planet/map. Then, every fab I make in that plant comes out and tries to hoover up everything, which is what you'd expect from a basic war standing order like "bring me metal." I feel like this game would be a lot more popular if we would just promote the humans to officers, and let them focus on the higher level play rather than APM micro and best practice chores. FA having build templates is the most promising aspect of the game on this front that is basically squandered by the contradictory demand for APM and micro.

      If you're looking for better AI, I recommend 10,000% for you to try the M27 AI mod on FAF. It doesn't cheat, and it's about as good as 1,200-1,500 elo. Seriously, it's an excellent AI mod, hope you give it a shot

      @@TheGreenSquier That AI exposed a big flaw in FAF. I learned that FAF doesn't understand physics. It's literally impossible to stop arty in FAF because overlapping shields do not distribute damage absorption capacity. I never noticed because stock AI never managed to get arty built fast enough. If you have one shield over a target the arty will hit for 90% damage, if you have 4 shields it will hit all 4 for 90% damage. That's not how anything works. It makes the game unplayable as anything but rush because nothing can be meaningfully protected regardless of investment/planning, and it's weird that the community hasn't discovered the flaw and forced it to be the meta. Now I understand why scathis is so effective if you can get it built, there's literally no defense except offense. I could have literally one trillion shields stacked in the same square and two rounds would penetrate them.
