See more? Just play it! I'm so glad BAR has broken the mold, I was playing it before Winter picked it up and it was hard to start a lobby, now you can drop in games any time of day. It's so great.
Having so many players is awesome as well. When we go to Arenas with 4 or 5 people on our team, it is easy to see those that are carrying and those that are being dead weight. Resulting in more toxicity. 25 players mean it is much harder to tell people apart. Only the collective exists. I want to play this.
This game has so many great features like that, you can see allied construction queues, there's the drawing and labeling pings like Winter mentioned, and there's tons of great control and macro features as well. This game makes it really hard to go back to other RTS games, it's just too good!
@@KraziEyevin Yeah, and not a studio behind it as such, but gamers. It is still a bit of a niche game, it's not the huge well known game like some C&C games for instance were in their day, but then again, this is probably the most successfull current RTS, it has a serious following. They're doing what studios apparently can't or at the very least won't do. And yeah, they added extras but also things you'd think should be more of the norm nowadays.
To really hammer it home just how well optimized this game is The framerate we were seeing from most of the players, and the time dilation as well (a few even said in chat that it took a few seconds for orders to go through), is the kind of stuff you might normally see as a standard issue occurence in both Supreme Commanders and the space-based successor Planetary Annihilation. These are games with playercaps, framerates they hit when running a couple thousand units across 16 players in an 8v8. Beyond All Reason hits these frames at 25v25, with 9k+ units on the map. If you play the game "normally" at its typical scales, even a bad computer could run it smoothly with potato mode turned on. There are very, very, very few games in general that can boast that degree of performance- let alone do it with this level of graphical fidelity (and this is the *lowest* settings, and it still looks pretty dang good!)
For reference, the land that Blue lost was ~100k energy. They were making 460k at that point. Red was capped at ~360k on land, and they were losing sea. It was pretty over way before this just because I think Red overcommitted to attack land, which wasn't even close to worth it considering how much Blue had at sea. If red had expanded more eco in the ocean instead of spamming as many experimental units, this would have been a very different game.
Didn't know this was possible! Such an epic and chaotic battle - I can't imagine how stressful it must feel to play at this level and to know that any second something could come up and just nuke your whole eco. Plus coordinating all this effort with a team of 25 - just insane!
Thank you! Haha, no! I suck at RTS games and often find it too stressful to play myself. I did play Starcraft BW back in the day and have dabbled a bit in BAR, but usually I prefer games that don't need that much multitasking. It is super fun to watch though ;) @@JonasEide
@@UnknownSquid there are set of games on steam called Wargame European escalation, Airland battle, and Red dragon. They have huge rosters of units that are well implemented down to small details.
@@billmurray2592 I mean warno/wargame is close, when you take into account actual models on the battlefield its also in the thousands in a 10v10 if everyone has around 200 troops and 20 tanks/AA out
Mind blowing to see. Just seeing the player list alone taking away the entire right side of the screen is enough to give me awe. Wonderful cast! Would love more bar vids
Every time you make a BAR video I get inspired to check it out, I have found memories of playing Total Annihilation when I was younger. I appreciate all of your videos and hope to see more BAR content when you have the time and energy!
BAR is an incredibly impressive project and is an example of all the best parts of open source software. It's got QOL features to a level I've never seen in a game before.
OMG! Winter bringing back BAR??? 🤩 Edit: saw the video's conclusion... Be smart & take care of yourself, Winter. Hopefully you'll find a way to continue to do BAR justice in the future. Playing, casting, a random scav map popping up after a month... I'd be happy with whatever you feel is right for you. Cheers!
@@Barbarossa97 thats just a thing for the moment thought im pretty sure since they already have a experimental third race(legion) ingame that is quite different from arm and core but its still not fully fleshed out but it looks really promising especially the rapid fire artillery of legion is very interesting aswell as its commander wich is completely differend and its air. it doesnt have water units yet though but im sure legion will be fully implemented once its fully fleshed out and balanced
@@Barbarossa97 That would require some rather radical design changes, which will likely be a complete nightmare to properly implement. It would also have some rather massive balance implications as well.
I watched every second. Thank you. That was wonderful. Do whatever you need to do for you, Winter. The thing you love as your job can be difficult. I hope you can find a balance that works for you.
While not having played BAR, I have played SupCom, and the best part of this was how you reacted when the chain reaction took out an entire base, because it isn't the sort of thing you need to worry about in SC, but is very much a thing in the TA games and their spiritual successors.
This was an awesome match. I was rooting for the team in the top the entire time but damn, this match was close! The battle tide turned so often that it's basically a whirl storm at this point. Thank you for streaming!
i discovered this game, watch your starcraft content regularly and started watching your BAR content from 6 months ago on your second channel. Glad to see it back!
so cool to see a team finally taking up the mantle of supreme commander supreme commander FA was a technical marvel when it came out in 2007 and it crazy to think that it took this long for anyone to even really attempt to match it
Back in the PA days there was a work around to disable player cap. There where some 100 player games on small planets so not 100 players making full bases but was pretty epic. The devs did shut the work around down eventually to save severs from melting.
It reminds me of Planetary Annihilation a lot, especially with the design of the commanders, how they move, even how they build stuff. It makes sense of course since both games are based on TA, but I played PA a lot as a kid so it naturally reminds me of it more.
Oh hey I played in these! You can see me (Tayzzer) boosting Ragna's lab right at the start for the op win on middle sea! Longtime fan of the channel, and I always love to see Bar videos. There were some more really fun ones that day that would be sweet if you covered, like the 25v25 on the smallest map in the game, or the 50 person ffa! That said, take care of yourself and its ok if you don't try to do more than you can
The music was always amazing in total annihilation too but the combo of wreckage and scrap being left on the ground from things that got destroyed mixed with turning the sound system to the pc up and bass and purely hearing all the close and distant explosions was so epic
Glad you stopped back by Beyond All Reason Winter! You looked and sounded more energised after your break mate. Loved the coverage! Definitely a hard game to balance playing and content creation on, since there's just so much going on. Well done to all the players and the Devs for making something like this possible, truly Beyond All Reason!
This Was An Epic Story, I Was Personally Rooting For The Reds To Win, Throughout The Whole Early Game I Was Hoping For A Massive Counterattack As The Blues Were Pounding Again And AGAIN On Our Base... ...And Then It CAME, The Reds Used Their Advantage In Resources Built A Calamity And Wrestled Control Of The Seas.

This was fun! I didn't know about BAR, this spiritual successor to TA and SupCom, so this was a nice surprise! Total Annihilation and (the first) Supreme Commander were some of my favorite RTS:es.
I love the cast you do of this game. I wrote thsi before this video ended. Thank you for covering it as much as you did and for bringing it to my attention
@@crimsoncreed3889 true. I've met a ton of losers on that and mute them. if they join my games i kick. but there are some cool chill people too. gotta make lists
Holy nuggets! I started playing BAR after seeing this and it is completely off the chain! This game is siiiick! Please do more content on this game! I loved Total Annihilation as a teen and this is a game made by others who loved TA and they are doing it the right way. Screw Blizzard, am I right?
Can we talk about how much of a technical achievement it is for this many people to duke it out without crashes, desyncs or performance problems? Something NO AAA studios can't get right.
Thanks for the cast. I knew (of) the game before you started playing it, but give up early as it was a bit overwhelming and I didn't want to put in the time to learn about it. I was already playing supreme commander and it took me a long time to get to some minimum level op competency at that. But because I followed your learning process in BAR streams and vods, I got motivated again and learned with you, and now it is still the game I put most time in each week and having a lot of fun. So thx for that.
Thanks Winter!!! THat was a Great video! Watched the whole thing! :D I think your points about making videos are spot on. DO what you enjoy and record everything. I do a youtube channel (another account) and I also feel overwhelmed sometimes with wanting to make MORE content. LOL but You do a great job! Love star craft II and this game! keep it up man!
ngl, this shown up randomly in my feed, and happy it did, this is lookin like an rts i can get behind and try out (im not good at them but i thoroughly enjoy them)
That was insane to watch with so much going on no one would be able to keep up with it all. You did great, kept from being overwhelming with information but still showed/explained so much to us. Thank you for this video
You could say "TA was the first RTS game to ____" about almost anything and it'd be believable. That game was nearly a decade ahead of its time in nearly every way. Hell Command and Conquer didn't even have build queuing.
It could have just been a slight gameplay/graphical revamp and slight redesign of the original DoW + it's many dlc's all together with a few new sides, and it would have a winner already.
Total Annihilation in 1997 is like 20 years ahead of its time. that game engine has some physic effect that no other RTS games could do, not even today, and not even in this BAR.
I remember back in the day with planetary annihilation coming out, it was wonderful, it did miss to make it stable and competitive enough to bring people in.
Played supreme commander and this looks like a blast not even Micheal Bay could come up with. Epic team match I look forward to being a part of in the future. Hopefully we'll see more content or at least competitive casting from Winter covering BAR.
You should see how it looks on a regular 8v8, when both teams go heavy on trying to out nuke each other. The whole battlefield lights up, with nukes exploding overhead like rolling thunder. : P ( Due to the particle limit getting capped with the crazy 50 player game, we were sadly missing out on a lot of the explosions and effects in this particular vid.)
@@DiscipleofVenser1992 Yeah, the game runs amazingly well, and even in the rare event it does crash, makes it easy to just boot up the game again, rejoin the same lobby and take back your units. Is a massive breath of fresh air after how much of a pain Supreme Commander can be if someone drops.
I think it is a good deed to shine some light on the game once in a while with your reach. You can help out this small game a lot, and that is already nice. You don't own anybody anything here anyway.
As someone who was just introduced to your content, I just want to say you are truly an inspiration. You really showed me that anything is possible…The fact that someone with your voice has made it a career to talk…truly amazing.
Would love to see you cast some "actual" Total Annihilation (probably with the resolution / ui mods that fix the high resolution stuff) or Supreme Commander!
There's some re-make of TA with modern coding. I think it's called TA Forever. That might be getting mixed up with SupCom's Forged Alliance Forever fan-managed client.
I use to play this game back in the late 90s. Supreme Commander was a lot of fun but Total Annihilation was the start. I still have some boards stuck in my head. lol.
This is what rts games should be like. This is a game by gamers for gamers. I want to see more of it.
Winter has more videos of it on his second channel :D
See more? Just play it! I'm so glad BAR has broken the mold, I was playing it before Winter picked it up and it was hard to start a lobby, now you can drop in games any time of day. It's so great.
Having so many players is awesome as well. When we go to Arenas with 4 or 5 people on our team, it is easy to see those that are carrying and those that are being dead weight.

Well you're entitled to your opinion.
Reminds me of Shattered Galaxy.
Seeing peoples mouse cursors as lit up spots on the ground is so cool, like eyes of sauron.

could use some work. big games end up .5x speed and low fps
Total Annihilation was the first RTS on my Pentium 100, such a graphic revolution back then!
The music in TA also holds up today, it is so damn epic and powerfull!
Still have my copies of TA and the expansion on CD ROM 😂Love the game and it’s awesome to see a successor
@@Leeto16 I wore out multiple copies of the CD,as I played it that much. Steam didn't exist back then.
It was a shock to me.
I was used to Dune 2 and C&C Red Alert, and then I booted up TA and I was like "WOW!"
I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
Brawler spam! lol! LOVED That game.
For reference, the land that Blue lost was ~100k energy. They were making 460k at that point. Red was capped at ~360k on land, and they were losing sea.

I love your BAR content, so happy right now ❤️
Incredible information. Life changing! Astonishing content and presentation. 5000/10 sir!
I can't remember when a game let you casually nuke your opponent and it's not even the climax of the battle, but a pause to the ongoing war.

I will watch anything you broadcast, but this was very different and also very interesting.
Thank you!
Played Total Annihilation back in the day and then Supreme Commander (and SC2). Good Video, im downloading now and will try!
Thanks for showing off this game, definitely giving it a try!
That was insane to watch with so much going on no one would be able to keep up with it all. You did great, kept from being overwhelming with information but still showed/explained so much to us. Thank you for this video
Imagine if they had pings for every fight the whole map would be lit up
More BAR Winter. Love it, I played TA long before I knew what sc was and this is so fun.
Fun fact, I believe TA was one of the first games to introduce command sequencing (shift clicking).
You could say "TA was the first RTS game to ____" about almost anything and it'd be believable. That game was nearly a decade ahead of its time in nearly every way. Hell Command and Conquer didn't even have build queuing.
We have come such a long way since me and my buddy were trying desperately to play a game of Warcraft on dial up and constantly losing connection.
This was epic! The endgame battles and chain reactions were incredible.
God I love supreme commander, planetary annihilation and games like this. They're so great with a bunch of players too
Finnally ! I love your BAR content, watched all your videos on the other channel !
I wish you would cast or play more, that would be awesome !
This is what Dawn of War 3 should've been like.
It could have just been a slight gameplay/graphical revamp and slight redesign of the original DoW + it's many dlc's all together with a few new sides, and it would have a winner already.
That scale of players in a single rts game is amazing. thx for casting.

This note in the chat. 10.
Total Annihilation in 1997 is like 20 years ahead of its time. that game engine has some physic effect that no other RTS games could do, not even today, and not even in this BAR.

Quite impressive there's no paid-for, triple A RTS game that can compete with this!
im so looking forward to this. basically the supreme commander 2 we always wanted
Thanks for bringing this to our attention! RTS should never die.
This is crazy! I had no idea this existed :o I love large scale rts this is absolutely perfect! If possible I would love to see more!
If you got any more 1v1 BAR pro battles that have gotten to tier 3, I would gladly watch it. My favorite BAR cast.
This game already feels incredibly deep and FUN. I can't wait to see it continue to grow ❤
now THIS is the kind of rts huge scale battle games i want god i cant wait to play im getting it rn
This was an absolute blast to watch. Thank you to all participants and the wonderful commentator.
I am now engaged in a minigame with myself, seeing if i can remember to like every video before winter asks. Having success so far

( Due to the particle limit getting capped with the crazy 50 player game, we were sadly missing out on a lot of the explosions and effects in this particular vid.)
@@UnknownSquid there may have been a lot missing, but no crash for all that action is impressive.
@@DiscipleofVenser1992 Yeah, the game runs amazingly well, and even in the rare event it does crash, makes it easy to just boot up the game again, rejoin the same lobby and take back your units. Is a massive breath of fresh air after how much of a pain Supreme Commander can be if someone drops.
I see what you did with that intro
Always glad to be here with the Winter casts🎉
That chain-reaction, how nice was that... :)
Love the fact that the game have phases. It start off from your standard warfare to just full blown titan warfare
Ahh yes, my childhood, total annihilation, starcraft, warcraft, tribes, counter strike, twisted metal
I think it is a good deed to shine some light on the game once in a while with your reach. You can help out this small game a lot, and that is already nice. You don't own anybody anything here anyway.
This is the RTS game RTS lovers want
As someone who was just introduced to your content, I just want to say you are truly an inspiration. You really showed me that anything is possible…The fact that someone with your voice has made it a career to talk…truly amazing.
haha yeah i had to mute him at times to get through the video
Would love to see you cast some "actual" Total Annihilation (probably with the resolution / ui mods that fix the high resolution stuff) or Supreme Commander!
There's some re-make of TA with modern coding. I think it's called TA Forever. That might be getting mixed up with SupCom's Forged Alliance Forever fan-managed client.
I use to play this game back in the late 90s. Supreme Commander was a lot of fun but Total Annihilation was the start. I still have some boards stuck in my head. lol.
Played 100s of hrs of Total Annihilation, many nights playing against friends, no sleep...... still got my original disks n box.
This is honestly an amazing technological feat. They built the game engine exactly right.
Winter pronouncing Chisato as "Jizzato" made me laugh over and over.
57:40 Best highlight by far
Thank you for this epic introduction to my new addiction
More of this game oh my god. I've been watching more on your second channel and this game is such a joy to watch
Tthe commentary is really good and enjoyable, I honestly do not know how you've managed to explain a 50 player battle and for it to stay logical haha
