Designed to get microtransactions? Hardly. You can get platinum easily through playing, and there isn't anything you can buy that you can't obtain through playing.

Game obviously designed to get micro-transactions out of people. What an enormous step down from the last in the series.

The lives need to be removed or shorten the timer to get lives back. I'm having a difficult time figuring out a strat to kill aliens and clouds so end up dying rather fast in pincers. My point is i can use all lives in 30 min or less and be done for the day. I like the game and want to play! I just dont see the reason to have lives..

I find that the best way to win against the aliens is to use lots of turrets. And use constructors to make a huge branch of turret that goes all the way to the ennemy base.

@Pilgrimsbattle: Pincer is not unwinnable. At first I thought that too, but then I found out you just have to be aggresive and creative and now I can easily win them (granted I am not at level 8 yet, but I guess it won't be that different from level 6).
And for those saying you need capital ships - my most successful strategy is Mosquito spam. It kills any opponent easy and fast. Just build and maintain an adequate defense, add some generators and spam Mosquitoes until the opponent dies (although you can throw some medium / capital ships in the mix for fun or to serve as defense, of course).

Is there a way to remove items from your inventory? I'm at 50/50 and there's some duplicate mosquitoes in there that I could do without.

That wiki has to be the least helpful I've ever used... If I knew any more information about this game I would post articles...

To those saying to win you must build a mjolnir/arty, oh god it's obv they haven't gotten past lvl 4.
To those saying to win you must make a cap, oh god it's obv they haven't gotten past lvl 5.
Also, using mjolnir in multi is suicidal and the only way ''making a cap'' is win in multi is in a cap race, or when you've already won.

You place bases so close to the bottom left corner that you can not build underneath the HUD and limits the useful space you need to be able to compete. either make a button to hide the interface or allow greater scroll to the edge of the screen or allow a change in zoom of some sort.

/-Why can't play the game normally in multiplayer? just please fix the lag then let it be like no lag same as campaign-\

I love it, even though my strategys on multiplayer are really stupid, it's really fun! I guess i have a few suggestions, a 2v2 multi. A 1v1 where you can pick rules, and a 1v1 where you can pick opponents.

from playing this game for over the month i have the following observations;
no one build is op, there are hard counters to every single build in game
While no one unit is OP base the power ceiling of individual units is much higher, but it takes time to upgrade new units please keep this in mind when you are just starting, in fact i would recommend newer players to stay out of multi until you have played a bit of campaign

Generally it's a top game. I'm surprised it isn't featured. Despite the comments, it's easily as good as OE2, and a lot longer. Just sitting back and watching two races battle it out you can see how well ballanced the game is, which is impressive considering how different each race is.
Only a couple of problems - Pincer is impossible to win, for obvious reasons, and the game basically comes to an end when you reach level 8 and there are only pincer maps available. I do like the "New" feature though that resets random maps. Nice idea.
And there is the classic OE lack of information. I'm playing a campaign without even knowing if there is a last level.
But whatever, it's one of the best games on the site.

Dude Wtf... i cant even beat the second level... and now we only get a certain number of tried?? you really ruined the game dev... come on, man

Campaign is fine, but in PvP once you get even a small number of structures on each side the lag is absolutely pathetic, putting it to the point of unplayable

Having issues where round will not complete after I finish off the enemy. Game still runs, nothing else to kill on screen.....my fighters just sit in a spot.

points in multiplayer does not make any sense. i win 1 game and have 1000 points? and the top player has only 1900? he beat me at least 5 times.
and not enough players in multiplayer to give u a chance at playing someone around your level. i always get the top players to fight and die instantly.

Seems everyone has freeze units on multi...making it a spam contest to see who gets them out first.... ruins experience.
