    So when's the nex-gen part?

    (Lol MadSci! Great minds and all that)

    Ok, to go into more detail; other than shoving a load of bloom, blur and partical effects in my face, I don't actually see any gameplay that warrants a "next-gen" label.

    me neither, it's only a teaser, these guys are apparently (and unfortunately) on the "surprise!" side of publishing. As far as I can tell this is SupCom 2 2
    hoping for the best for when gameplay footage comes out.

    Cinematic trailers are so pointless.. gameplay or GTFO.

    These days id' rather have the dev actually do a actual game then just gameplay snippets.

    Like, I need to see how you actually play the game rather then units just shooting at each other and then have the gall to call it gameplay.

    I was being sarcastic lol There is nothing out there next gen besides PA in my opinion...Just showing the world how much is riding on PA!!! I agree with all of you. RTS games with no actual gameplay are prob a failure already.

    Looks good, but it is a cinematic trailer :( Not ingame footage, so it is really hard to tell how it is gonna look and especially perform.

    Also, don't use Next-Gen geez, I am being alergic to that already.

    Yes martenus that is the pic I saw when I first heard about the game. The people previewing the game touted it as supcom on steroids actually. In that pic it really does look great & very much follows in the look of supcom. Those two big machines of war look like Spider bots...And that massive base looks like sum cool huge space Fortress. It would be great if it was even close to supcom in gameplay bc its very different from PA. So I welcome it! Just wanted to give everyone here a heads up since I just found out about the game recently.

    I am currious what the maps gonna be like ... but I guess it is gonna be classic "flat" style, not planetary.

    You mean two brutally efficient mechanisms of war? :p

    nnnnnot.. ...at all?
    Or PA on mods. nothing PA engine can't handle, definitely smaller scale. too much Pew Pew. never was a fan of drippy FX, need me some good old bullets and gunpowder in there. less lens flare.

    Yes. That may be true. But only because the spherical maps (aka planets and star system). But not a minimal detail at all, indeed.

    Or am I missing some other aspects of PA that's actually pretty much pushing forward?

    ps. Anyway, I expect plural PA imitators coming on out soon. Spherical maps are just awesome, not just for RTSs. A RimWorld clone, for example, made on a spherical map would get my unconditional love.

    SupCom in my opinion looked a lot cooler in it's trailer too.

    The artwork is pretty I'll give it that....

    I duno though- I'm not sure it really competes with fighting in actual solar systems.
