    You seem to forget this game isn't done yet. Did you not notice the big "BETA" moniker in the game? Plus most of the YT videos are recordings of alpha builds. So you have two choices, wait for the final game before you critic it again, or play the game and give the devs some input on improving the game.

    The graphics are amazing in PA when at the highest v settings. Go look at the texture detail and lighting effects, I think Uber even have global illumination.

    Games aren't make w/ Graphics, Games are made w/ Gameplay, I like more to play a TA w/ 97 Graphics, than a SC2 w/ a 2010 Graphics...
    PA:
    -Good Eco system
    -Inter-planetary Battles
    -Galact War
    -Super EPIC(Awesome) Battles
    -I love TA based RTS

    P.S.- I suggest you to watch a Michael Bay movie
    P.S.2- the game will have better graphics, not textures, but animaitons, weapons effects
    the Graphic that PA use is are called Eye-Candy(or something like that)... and someone can make a mod w/ Awesome textures

    If graphics, animation and effects were your worst offenders in supcom2, I really don't think you have anything meaningful to add.

    PA's Graphics could be greatly improved very very easily:

    -proper scale would give a waaay better global feeling.
    Because yes, the wrong scale of PA give the same impression of fake and counterfeit i had while discovering SC2's tiny version of Seton.

    -smoother and less blocky units (without necessarily higher polycount, see FA's units) would give better readability. Currently the different units don't have enough "character" as they seems to be all made from the same blocks.
    That's perfectly realistic as they are self-replicating machines built for maximum efficiency and without any aesthetic goal; but the game is made for human players with aesthetic sense.

    -a few small things like adding light effects on the explosions/nanolathing, better feeling of power from the weapons..

    Because, yes, graphics are important.
    A deep game is indeed necessary, but nice graphics are not useless or unwanted, they really improve the game experience.

    Relic only made one good game and that was Company of Heroes 1. Yet the the graphics, animation and gameplay was outclassed by a mod made by 5 beered up guys in Germany (yes, im refering to Blitzkreig Mod for CoH). Sorry but Relic's achievements are stuck in the past since lead programmer died and they made COH 2. -.-

    Please, go back to Mario Kart.

    Edit: If you want to stop this coming up you should contact a moderator and remove this BS thread.

    OP is a troll and/or ignorant of actual gameplay.

    PA is an amazing game. This thread has degraded and should probably be locked.

    Actualy i agree with some things in this thread:D

    "Currently the different units don't have enough "character" as they seems to be all made from the same blocks."

    I cant get were is my kbot factory & were is my veh factory XD

    Would be cool if they change some stuff that looks too similar;/

    The problem is the units design not modeling. Imo the best units design was in original total annihilation - never seen better designed stuff ;/

    I find it funny that some people post in here to tell other people to stop posting in here.
    Kind of contradicting isn't it?

    Honestly I've never been happy with the visuals in PA, even the kickstarter video. I have always been of the mind that gameplay > graphics though. With an HD model and texture pack I'll probably get the best of both worlds. I'd rather they focus on gameplay.
