What Uber Did and Didn't Achieve So Far

I'm just reading off the Kickstarter pages here, there may be reasons some of these didn't end up in the game. Those marked with question marks are questionable as to whether they were supposed to be an actual feature or just concepts that were just overly detailed descriptions or a mere idea and not an official feature.


Did:
Galactic War - Single player
Galactic War - Procedural generation
Lava planets
Metal planets
Gas giants
Gas giant resource extractors
Full orchestral score
Orbital units
Multi-planet warfare
Planetsmashing
Annihilaser
Naval combat
Basic mod support



Didn't:
Asteroid tsunamis?
Galactic War - Clan/MP
Galactic War - Dynamic story system
"Volatile" yet resource-rich lava planets
Geothermal generators/liquid metal processors in strategic locations on lava planets
Flowing lava
Unit cannon
Complex terrain?
40-player battles (possible, but not officially supported yet)
Ladder/leaderboards/matchmaking
"a great job [at]" naval combat
Advanced mod support
Multiple windows for camera views


Let me know if I misplaced/forgot anything.

I forgot my reddit account's password so linking/copying (credit me please) it there might be a good idea.

I miss our 40 player games. ;~;

I LOVE THREADS LIKE THESE

You just love that gif don't you?

+sing command.

We have basic modding support, we're missing dedicated modding support. Workshops and the like.

Fun orbital.

Fun gameplay at all levels of play.

Its a spooky month

Pfff.. What if the sing command is there, just super hidden with a really odd name?

On a more serious note, that last bit is really subjective, so they can never really get that right. *shrugs*

Sing command?

It was a command in TA, if you typed +Sing all units would make instrument sounds when issued a command like move or attack. It was something silly for fun.

All units had a different instrument IIRC.

Orbital support units are cool enough.

Id be interested in a mod that makes orbital non-combat, not sure how jigs would work but yeah, make orbital stuff non-combat.

I wanted this originally.. But with Gas giants- eh it wouldn't work out too well xP

Could make some kine of anti-orbital siege missile of something.

But yeah, plot holes....

40 player servers - Did

Officially supported? I remember Brad saying it wasn't official yet.

I'm pretty sure fun was not promise only Awesome!

Well, it's doable

That should just be a game option like "No Nukes" "No combat orbital"

It's not official so I don't think it's fair to take it off the list yet.

There, compromise.

Sand worms!!

I hate it when people use the word "fun" like it means something concrete.

I also fail to see the difference between basic and dedicated - the two aren't even comparable English. Basic and advanced would be more appropriate. They have been dedicated to providing modding updates and functionality, and have done a ton of engine work to support this up to this point and in the future.
