    The community seems mainly against experimental and such, Uber's pretty on the fence about it, it might be a thing to do down the line.

    Missiles that can shoot incoming planets?

    Aren't nukes like, unlimited range now? (A change I disagree with).

    Clearly some people in this thread are new and need to be reminded: Uber won't answer WHEN questions.

    Ugh I hope the offline mode is implemented soon, Uber. for example, I was looking for reviews today and one of the top hits was this http://www.gamereactor.eu/news/251914/Players not optimistic about Planetary Annihilation launch/
    Despite it being ill informed click bait, the message that people will get is the same "even the fans are worried about the game being ready for launch". This only acts to put more people off. Such a shame, and it hope it isn't a sign of things to come, as the game really is amazing and deserves a chance.

    Edit: if anyone is registered with that site, it would be nice if you set them straight! Thankfully, they link to a Steam discussion (because that's a legitimate source lol) where someone is already being helpful and countering what the article claims)

    Where are the figures which prove that 'a majority of players to collectively say "hold your horses"'? I can't find them.

    Don't trust journalists who don't add sources to their posts.

    Yeh it's a very frustrating article, but it doesn't change the fact that the headline is the thing people will see first, and some will base their decision to buy the game on an article like this. Ugh, bad journalism does my head in.

    There are no comments on the article yet and I'd quite like to call out the author on the accuracy of their information, but I'm not a member and don't intend to register if that is the sort of article the site promotes. Apparently it is one of Europes biggest game sites??

    No, naval just needs some work and we need Naval Teleporters/Unit Cannons to mount easy invasions.

    Holy ****, you're talking about amphibious landings landings on planets! :eek:

    That would be so amazing...

    Eh, i don't think the article is that negative. But it is certainly a bit ill-informed. At least to me, the games performance is impressive considering, the framerate stays ok with thousands of units (even with all their headlights and stuff), and they certainly didn't do their research on the current server-bugs.

    Sites like that just write click bait, not real stories. I'd even recommend removing the link above to deny them the potential ad revenue.

    "Here's the secret truth about x that y don't want you to hear..."

    Sound familiar?
