So, since my last competition was pretty much a discussion, I'll now close that and move over to this general colony discussion (the others are all specific)

Builds don't really matter a lot you guys know. As long as you don't pull a noob build out your timing/micro will help you win lol.

what was more important was teamwork.

so the more u know about the game and whats going to happen the better.

Evidently you dont understand colony. The point is in 2v2 if u have teamwork your already set. Knowledge isnt enough. Tdh doesnt use knowledge to counter builds he uses his skill. And Mon Forge is definetly not overpowered. It can be beaten by capitalist dual build. Everytime a good build is discovered do people just call it overpowered?

So, I want to know when Fascists or Communist will have a good build.

I already know the metagame of the future, if there is no balance patch. Monarchy will be the only viable Government.

Sure Capitalist and Monarchy are so much stronger than Communist and Fascists, but why?

The reason is because the way the Governments function. Both Governments can throw away unit after unit after unit and win. Someone said tdh has skill, but he doesn't show it. I don't see him every using micro at the level I can. I have pretty sick micro tactics, ask Draco. Sure he claims he doesn't need to use micro to win, but saying that means there the game is broken. This means there are both Gov. and Unit imbalances.

What are the imbalances?

I'll let you guys post what you think, while I do my weekly hacker report. ^.^

dude, if there is a patch that boosts the already powerful enough facists then facist will undeniably be the best government

Fascist is not under powered by any means, if you were to take 2 people at the top #1 better then any other player is now, they would both use fasci, it's like SC2 Best top 2 players are toss, but the rest are zergs (e,g easy to use)

Since we all know colony will never get an update till 3 years or so....stop complaining. All this talk about imbalances hasnt got us anywhere. I mean if the top players in colony used fascists everyone would call that teh best government. So i dont think mon will be the main government. Its just easier. And yos i didnt know you had such confidence in your micro skill. I cant say i've never seen it. So draco how is his micro?

Draco's micro is standard. This is my new favorite tactic in my arsenal of many.

No, it wasn't. I have an obligation to help the community, which always comes first. Playing Pacmanateyou doesn't benefit anyone.

Question which phasing is correct?
I have an obligation to help the community. (I'm pretty sure this is right)
I have an obligation for helping the community.

It took my 5 minutes to pick one, and I'm still not 100%.

Harfang, you shouldn't post without knowing about the topic being discussed. You clearly don't know the history of Colony's metagame. On top of that, you show you don't know the fundamentals of the game.

With any RTS game there will be imbalances in he first release. Colony is far from an exception. There have been many balance patches that have come out, but the last was about 13 months ago. There are still balance issues in the game.

You also stated people back in the old days mass units, and had one big battle. This is true for 2v2, but in 1v1 the level of play was so much higher than the level of play today.

I will explain why I disprove of your last comment about Fascists later tonight. Get ready for another mind-blowing, high-level essay about Colony. ^.^

p.s. So tdh would rather not do his best and risk losing than to try his best and improve. That's what I'm reading.
