The Game
Colony is a great strategy game. Multiplayer action with up four Players is awesome. The missions are also great. You can contact Easily with the AI on the Missions, and they Reply back. On the Multiplayer, there are ranking systems, Games won, Games Played etc.

Gameplay
The gameplay is also quite good. But this game is based on Starcraft. So you can build, recruit and upgrade. Every game takes a 2 Vs 2 Battle. Teamwork is needed. There are 8 Building Spots, 4 For you and 4 For your Mate. Special Effects, bullets, fire, Explosions are good, and graphics is awesome. Otherwise there are 3 Classes

Classes
Communist = Faster Manpower Regeneration Rate
Capitalist = Faster Money Regeneration Rate
Fascist = Faster Building and Spawning Rate

Me
My username on Multiplayer is Spore.When this is typed I have 21 Games, which 16 are Won. If you want to see my stats later on, type: /Stats Spore
Or you can see others' stats, by typing: /Stats [Player's Name]

So tell me people, what do you think about this game?

Servers are back up. They crash, than they get fixed a minute later. Funny, huh?


That's cause Jiggin is online, he's an Admin. Is your user FireTailMadness or Firetail. I'm not sure since I've seen them both.

Just checking to see if anybody else has had this problem, the campaign isn't saving for me, not too big of an issues since the campaign is so short, but just checking if anybody else is having this problem.

I ain't playing anymore today, it's killing my record as is. I've won about 7 times in a row and it keeps deleting my stats and going back to 19/25.

Just wondering if anybody actually uses the special operations center in multiplayer. I mean, it's powerful, but it takes forever to get running at decent pace (like 2 upgraded banks and an upgraded powerplant). I mean, I've played one ranked match so far (server crash before playing more), and my team rocked the opponent team, my ally had marine spam and some sakata mk 2s going, and I had the scout spam going, we pretty much owned the enemy, one of whom was trying to use spec ops center to make missiles.

So basically my question is, is it worth it to tech and build up to wait for units like the gladiator, black queen, missiles, or is it generally better to just rush the opponent with cheaper units?

First off this game is good.
Secondly there are several things I believe may at some point be good, if they're in already I apologize.
*A breeder thing to create manpower.
*Saving the missions.
*Slightly easier missions I can't get past mission 4.
[b]It's is a great game so play it.

Fastest way to create manpower is the armory unfortunately. Outpost manpower generation is 1 mp/3 seconds, hospital is 3mp/5 seconds, armory is 9mp/10 seconds.

Unfortunately the missions can't be saved yet, Krin will probably update to fix that.

Mission 4 is medium-hard, just spam drones and you'll be fine. This is what I did for mission 4:
-Bank
-Forge
-Create like 5 scouts (rally point on), then use the salvage ability
-Powerplant
-Create more scouts for defense as needed
-2nd Powerplant
-Spam drones, get a good force amassed, and charge teh enemy base, just watch out for the sakata mk 2s, as they can kill multiple scouts at once


Mission 5 is friggin hard though. Your left without a forge to build, which takes away a lot of the best units, and the enemy will almost always kill you before you get the resources to start spamming missiles.

Krizaz, why do ranks and stats matter so much?

Ranks don't matter I guess, but they are a source of pride.

As to Eddy's question, I try to tech rush, but I will build units to defend myself.

I wish you could just click on the name in chat to access stats, and be able to scroll the list of users because some you can't see.
