    First of all the pathing: The randomly generated cracks and crevices make it difficult for the NPC's to find their way and most times there are no possible routes. Also, land NPC's such as the vehicles and robots can walk underwater therefore making the naval fleet useless basically.

    The playback feature (I forget the name): decided to play backwards without me knowing or showing up out of nowhere and made it near impossible to play. When clicking to move, the particular clicks stayed on the planets surface where I clicked but the NPC's never moved. The attack mark, the move mark, they remained on the surface but nothing happened. It was very strange. At that point I could no longer move anything so I lost.

    Just hooking you up with some information you know about, does anyone else find this a huge problem?

    The underwater tanks/bots thing has been a known bug for a while. Pathing has been an area for ongoing fixes and improvements.

    I haven't run into any issues with the chrono cam myself but then I haven't tried to use it yet either.

    Well that's the thing, I wasn't using it haha

    It just up and started and the bar that shows it's going back or forwards in time wasn't there and my game was just going in revers. Even when opening it, pausing or playing it didn't matter, my game was just screwed

    ChronoCam is still got more than a few rough edges, it's been known that ChronoCam can 'fall behind' a bit form the game, try hitting END on the keyboard, that's the hotkey to sync your client back up to the server, HOME will bring you right back to the start of the game, just be careful, DEL causes and selected units to explode!

    Yeahh, I tried smashing the Esc button a couple hundred times and it was still all funky. Not really sure what was up but I'll keep that in mind.

    END, not Esc.
