👌🏻 looks so smooth when you play, seems rather stressfull waiting for buildings to finnish but the hero is really pulling their weight
I have put in roughly 5 hours and have to say that I honestly love this game and the direction that the devs are taking with it! Very impressed and will DEFINITELY buy!
I'm quite hopeful for this game. Having fun with it so far
Any RTS game developers should feel proud to have you showcase their game
Thank you :)
This game is fun because it basically has a proven style (mass defense). Please make the official release soon.
but hero unit design is a bit childish. Ride a hoverboard and shooting ? I wish there were several hero units to choose from.
TAB is a good game, but it also has many drawbacks. I hope it will be a better game.
Yeah the hoverboard things a little strange because everything else looks so good! Hopefully they make a couple redesign choices but either way looking forward to it :D
It seems like you need way too much of those small buildings at the start like jesus he half filled the screen. Those might need tweaked if that ends up being meta. Because it slowed down his gameplay a lot.
@@grozzarkazoku8757 they are billions is quite similar if you play on a survival map with crippled wood supply.
I think the buildings would be easier to tell the difference if their health bars disappeared when they were not damaged.
i like that you added an intro, gj kensei
Glad you liked it
The lack of Veterancy for your units is sorely missed from other, similar games. I really hope they add that.
Well to me the veterans are the upgrades when you make them.
I hadn’t even heard of this one! I knew about age of darkness, but not this one. Looks interesting!
nah, tried it, boring af, nice building animations, but awful walking animations :)))
@@AdLazy TAB isn't exactly a paragon of graphic fidelity either. That isn't the reason people play these games.
@@rekrn12345 obviously... but they are billions is somewhat ballanced, not sure how to explain it, and it actually does look very good, it has a very cohesive atmosphere, and so does "Age of darkness Final Stand".
I actually think a sci-fi terran vs zerg setting in the style of they are billions is an excelent ideea but it needs to be executed correctly, and ffs fix that damn animation speed on those units, it really looks bad.
This is a mindustry with ultimate graphic upgrade
Message appears on my phone " New video: They are billions meets starcraft"
Me: I hope its a kensei video
Also Me: Not disappointed :)
Nice
also feels Red-Alert-ish with the building placements and the resource gathering
2:36:51 - In case you didn't notice, your base is under attack.
I need this in my life
Can try to join the playtest on steam
What's that coop map with Infested colonists spawning in the night... Dead of Night. I watched so much CTG co-op. Lesssgoo
Saame
YOU MUST CONSTRUCT ADDITIONAL PYLONS
Seems pretty cool. Some minor problems, but definitely pretty good for an early build. They need to reduce the frequency of notifications because that was pretty annoying.
Yeah I agree
Love the construction animation. I wonder how this can be done on Blender.
Was waiting for this game to begin playtest. Also, that's anew hero model isn't it? It wasn't like that in the game last time. There also seems to be improvements in the building animation.
I don't know what it looked like before. There is a second hero with obviously a different model.
Before this the scouts are literally female with bows, so paying more homage to tab than now
Yes, it is a new model. Commander Layton used to ride a sort of cyborg panther.
Great content dude ! LEts goo thnx !
this is an amazing gameplay you are good.
I should get crystals.
*proceeds to go the entire opposite way of the crystals*
:D
I feel like currently, it's just a reskin of TAB and I'd even go as far as to say it looks like a mod reskin project as there's nothing 'new' it offers in terms of technicality and some stuff. A suggestion would be to have some units like the damn Gundam lookalike hero you play to be able to activate some sort of "fly mode" -- adding air units to the mix.
its a mix of both as said, not trying to add something new. looks a bit more casual that TAB which is probably an improvement. your units move faster, your buildings probably have more HP, you get a hero that levels up. economy does look like a reskin of TAB. But I mean it gave Kensai a warning his buildings were being attacked BEFORE he lost the colony, which is a difference, TAB gives a warning but you lose the building too fast and your guys are too slow to do anything about it.
most of what its taking from starcraft looks like a UI update on like the units. Unit healing seems slow for the non-hero compared to TAB though
then you dont see the defender mode from this game ;)
And every MMO is a WoW clone... right?
/s
Glad to see some more entries in this genre. Even though it seems a biiiiit too similar to age of darkness
you mean TAB xd
@@trippie8730 No. It shares more in common with age of darkness than They Are Billions, regardless of whether or not they're both based on it.
this is amazing! finally a reason to play SC2
Theres always a reason to play SC unless retired GM maybe? 😅
what a legend , wow
They are billions with different skins. Saying that tho that's 1 my favourite games lol love the city building/Tower defense games tho play them for hrs. Just hope this has a decent campaign when they bring it out.
Could you please like triple or quadruple your audio in your videos? I have to crank up all my stuff to hear, but I love your channel and have the same taste in games as you, so cant wait to see more.
The towers have spaces i think because they saw you cheesing Last Stand lol
is it possible to play this game now? It says November on Steam.
This is so weird. It's Early Access on Steam but you actually can't buy (access) it...
And from what I've seen in the video, some things look strange. The scale of the towers compared to the walls feels really off. And are there no gates?
Game will be early access 18 November. There are gates but they are a weak spot in the defense setup.
YOUR BASE IS UNDER ATTACK
They are billions is dark and nice to watch. Alien Marauder could be at least as dark, but we have Silver surfer, it kills the atmosphere!
we need a LOTR version of this
YES
I would like this style of roguelike games to have a non-ironman mode, so for the casual players like myself, we can reload a previous save during a mission because maybe we don't like spending two hours on a mission only to fuck up ONCE and watch all our hard work fall to pieces. TAB is a great game, but that one lacking piece is what kills everything for me. If this game doesn't have that singular option, save/reload to early parts in the mission, even if only via manual save, I'll skip past.
So far, it looks almost like an exact copy of TAB but with aliens rather than zombies. :P
Most games have iron man mod where you can't reload a previous save
@@zapataboy9377 They have an option for such, sure, but most games actually give you that option to toggle on or off too.
Most RTS games do not have this as an option, because most people do not like having to restart a mission after two hours because they made one tiny mistake. That's a dumb design.
@@imglidinhere It's literally the genre of game... a roguelike game is one where you don't get to save scum. That's the whole point.
@@MrJollyBear Still don't see the issue with just making it a toggle switch. Alienates a huge chunk of potential sales to fulfill a niche audience. :P TAB would have 3x the sales if you could reload from a previous save. Half my friends refused to buy it because of that reason because, like most, they don't have the time to spend one big attempt on a mission, only to fuck up ONCE and have to restart. Not fun for most.
@@imglidinhere AM does have manual saves if you want to. There is an option to increase the difficulty with no saves. But I'm not arguing about sales or whether it's more accessible... just stating that it's a roguelike game. They're meant to be played that way.
Seeing this makes me mad that They Are Billions didn't allow you to train Hero units for use in the Survival Games.
when will the game be released?
Your base is under attack
Wait, is this a SC2 mod map? The work is cool and everything but like, SC2 already has everything you need to make a TAB style game (aside from the scripts of course).
No this is a completely separate game.
idk how it took too much time to figure this game , if i knew coding skills i will be doing by myself starcraft meet factorio
That is an almost perfect map. Long wall, big housing area, nearby metal & mithral, other walls in good places. Wish they had a way to use map seeds.
Map seeds would be a great addition!
So this is a straight reskin of they are billions. Wish someone would at some point create a NEW game.
Is it in EA, can buy it now?
first,and l actually play starcraft2 and they are billion both.
Good choice in games
good concept. I like where this is going. but that hoverboard...
where i can get this game? link any1?
Basic units seem too weak, building time seems longer then TAB, looks interesting so far I will watch you play some more before I invest into this game.
The game just seems too easy for you, but I wonder if that's because you are that experienced in this genre of game.
I wish there was more support for TAB, like new units, new tech, new environments, alternative game modes and even new zombies but I guess the game has run its course.
c&c was the original surprise attack game
purple dead buildings
in the mini map
i wish there come out with a new total annihilation. that was a fun game
I agree, that was a fun game
its easyer than They Are Billions ? looking for casual difficulty :P not like in TAB
I think your base is under attack
I think you are right, let me double check the notifications
I saw this and thought:" Huh StarCraft' but it's something new. Interesting gonna watch. Ok watched it not sure what to feel about it. Is it me or are a lot of clone-like games are finding it's way out lately.
yo co-op can I hear a co-op my gawd please Not a modded co-op option I'm crying already xd
Yes I played lots of they are billions and I can already say if it ain't co-op Idc still gonna get it HYPE HYPE!
it seems like a good game but dat path finding kinda bad like some mecha only infinite moonwalk there but not shooting at all
The constant "your base is under attack" audio warning for random units attacking all the time is NOT helpful. In cases where it is just walls being attacked, it should wait a few seconds or until the wall is below 75% before doing the audio message. After all, if the enemy is taken out before doing too much damage, you rarely even care.
This is one easy area they could improve on TAB in; those 'building completed' and 'walls under attack' messages are annoying and even counterproductive.
Looks like a slow paste Red Alerts
I don't know if you had tech issues with your audio, but I had a hard time hearing you.
one thing : why make ppl build the rediculous amount of the 'housing' structure? soooo spammy and unnecessary.
то чувство когда миру нужна вторая часть TAB, а не это говно
time for a wireless mic, Brother
It looks a little too like tab
Economy seems very TAB like, combat feels different though. And with different heroes providing changes for buildings and units it seems quite interesting. For example you can't build walls with the other hero but get some melee unit options.
@@KenseiTV these changes are just too minor, it's just TAB with different graphics and bare minimum gameplay changes so it's not an exact 1 to 1 copy. Too many people nowadays try to cash-in on TAB's success with little-to-no effort put in instead of trying to improve on the formula, and it's honestly frustrating because we could've had so much more.
@@DC-yf9vy
"Too many people trying to cash in", are they really though? There's not a lot of games like TAB out there. The only ones are recent like Age of Darkness and this, and then there was the Conan one before. Counting early access TAB is nearly 4 years old. I'm glad to see some other games finally coming out and trying to refresh the idea. TAB's basic gameplay formula works really well so why should developers change it drastically. It's fine to follow the core gameplay and add some new stuff. I think both this and Age of Darkness do enough different to stand out. I'm sure they'll both shape up to be nice additions to the TAB-genre.
@@DC-yf9vy And every fighting game is a Stret Fighter clone...
People say this is starcraft/they are billions.. but i dont really see any sc2 in it. To me its just reskinned TAB
finally ... art of darkness and riftbreaker were such disappointments
.
Very anime in style. I'm not an enthusiast of that.
late game is flamers backed by ion cannons, silent seem pointless
Always online scam, spy & lie service "for you."
another clone of "enter game here" as factorio / riftbreaker / they are billions / darkest hour
I feel like this guy just has something against Age of Darkness for some reason, it has far more potential than either this or TAB imo it looks and feels better to play than both of them.
I don't have anything against Age of Darkness. I actually hope they do work and improve the game since I think it has potential. I do judge a game by its current state though not what it might eventually be or what developers promise. In my opinion there are a lot of problems. If you are happy with its current state and enjoying it that is great.
never use names of blizzard, they suck. you too ?
starship troopers would be better... or are you too young?
Awesome!!!
