Any plans for a Skirmish mode?
Very nice game, remembers me of the good old Total Annihilation(the future one); really nice graphics and concepts.
Hi,
do Zero-K will run on my computer?
-2GB RAM
-Pentium 4 HT 3.00GHz
-Intel 82915G/GV/910GL Express CHipset Family (192mb).
It's free and simple to download so it doesn't hurt to try. Get the game, register an account, and if you have any trouble running it, ask in the forums or chat.
It works with some integrated graphics so your best bet is to try. Apart from the graphics the rest of your computer should be fine.
After many attempts to run the game, I couldn't play.
More information would be helpful.
Apparently setting 'CompressTextures = 0' can fix some Intel graphics issues. This is in springsettings.cfg through the 'Open game data folder' button in settings.
Hmmm.... I will try, this game looks so good.
+ constant development, improvement, bugfixing
+ single commander unit brings unique possibilities, small part of roleplay here ;)
+ massive strategic online metagame with Planetwars
+ unique gameplay with various units and technologies
+ terraforming the 3d-map with intuitive interface
+ game interface customizable and extendable via widgets
+ real 3d, affecting strategy, movement, sightlines, shotlines etc
+ 3d world is complete zoomable till whole map is visible, iconization of units on zoomout
+ camera controls are easy and intuitive to use (gameplay feels like suppreme commander)
+ air, water, land(flat/hill), amphibious, spider(all land terrain), each makes different units more or less usefull
- not much of a (singleplayer) campaing (so far)
- engine might be a bit older (but effects are nice though)
(-> but unlike other games, graphics are not distracting the user and clear, so enforces strategic gameplay)
just gotta love this game.
