Just had a pretty fun game where very little orbital was used in the beg. It was constant battles back and forth over a multiplanet spawn. However I still feel the game has a long way to go. Transports are currently useless when compared to a teleporter. Im not sure if the teleporter is just too powerful since its build-able so early on. Its become the only way to overtake enemy bases. Air still feels extremely powerful & navy has not been touched in ages...
