    Building underground is a very bad idea. It's All explained in another post.

    well if you think about it the game is already unrealistic so why not add a bit of awesome? the creators could prob find a way to to this cause they are awesome that way

    It's not awesome until you show us a some sketches of how this is going to work (in terms of digging, building, fighting, etc) with an underground battlefield that doesn't turn the UI into a giant mess.

    i am a terrible drawer first of all and how its going to work is.

    How units get down:
    for non-wall walking ground units they use a elevator of some sort or a airplane
    for air units there will be a air docking bay (can come out of ground or just open up)
    for wall walkers they can walk on the walls of the base


    gravity still applies to this so factories can work only on the bottom and if on a wall or something they can only make wall walkers. i also could try sketching out the idea but dont expect much ok?

    It doesn't have to look good, it has to properly explain how this is going to look ingame without being terribly complicated and making it really hard to see/order units.

    Why does the poll have no option for no?

    Please refer to this post.

    Well the poll is rather bias, how did you expect people to react?

    well now it has no so you have to re-vote (sorry) also i do expect some ppl to hate this idea but in the future in their game i bet it'll be like "i have no room to build why didn't i say i like that thread"

    Space isn't a problem in space.

    There is plenty of space in space.

    but they said they wont have space units and also its not safe in space and stuff would move around i want a singular base on a planet and you cant gather all the resources you need in space. got it? lol
    also somebody else just posted more ideas on a other thread about these things

    The point is that this has never been a problem before, so why would it be a problem now?

    If you need more room, then take it by force.

    well space will be sparse later on so i just want the option to hide and aquire more space. right? so the ability to tunnel will help me a bunch, if you just don't care then don't argue

    This is essentially giving people who are trapped in a corner more room to build safely. If you need more room to build you have to take the risk to expand.

    thank you, because im a really passive player cause i hate getting ppl mad (i should get over that lol) and i love hiding and then sending a gigantic force and win (i've won a fair amount of games doing that)
