Quick-Game Scenario

Hey all,

I was just wondering if it would be possible or already is possible to have a quick-game scenario in which production times are 10% of traditional speed? For example, you can build a medium tank in 10 minutes, a destroyer in 15 minutes, a battleship in 20 minutes. All of this to speed up the game and make active players engage.

If anyone recalls the Command and Conquer series, like Red Alert 2, you know that you can build a base in 30 minutes for a game that will finish in 6 hours. Live combat with full control.

Just a thought..

My suggestion is a 60x speed. Everything that takes an Hour will only take a minute. That will condense 30 days of game into 12 hours.

Make that a gold required to join map because I am sure there will be an intense server load for that period, But the upside will be that the game will be over and done in a day for the most part. You could even put a 24 hour limit on it.

Downside would be that people joining 15 or 30 minutes late would have a serious disadvantage.

Those are going to be some very scary tactical bomber, rocket and nuclear missile attacks.

Why? Still takes 15 seconds for each patrol tick ;-)

Man, Y'all need to get on the Command and Conquer series, they sell the entire pack at the store.

Your troops leveled up by combat experience, the more they killed, the more lethal they became. Tanks would go from standard mm rounds to mini-nukes, planes the same. Tanks that would shoot lasers which would prism from enemy to enemy, as well as apocalypse tanks which started off shooting mini nukes and had anti-air missiles attached.

This doesn't even include nukes, weather storms, chronosphere travel of groups, or special forces units.

Amazing game, this game is a lot like it, just incredibly slow.

You're right. What this WW2 game is missing, is tanks that fire mini nukes

Free Time looks good on me

Speed maps will come back as an Event in the future, all that is needed is a little bit more patience ;)

LOL I didn't mean it like that. That series wasn't based on reality at all

Mobil rocket launchers, you know, V2s were launched from them, not a bad idea
