Only played it once so far with my brother (who loves the game to bits - RTS nut). Well both of us now have dual monitors and we took advantage of the game's ability to use dual monitors. I must say that it does give an edge as the two screens are independent of one another. The main screen is where u can click and move around some and the screen that wont scroll around but you can zoom in and out of and keep an eye on things (such as a base or defense) while you do what ever it is that needs doing. however this game is quite the anti-job. LOL! I sat down and played on LAN and 4 hours zipped by.... But yea. Me likies. But dual monitor = double the load on ur system. My system lags once there's tons of stuff on the map. Doesn't help that the maps are huge (we played on a 20km x 20km map - scale). So yea, supreme commander is VERY demanding on hardware. ![]()

i tried dual monitor mode, i went back to single monitor mode. played at 1680x1050 but it can be slow. playing multiplayer kinda sucks because when there's many units and all, the game goes like 2 - 3 seconds in real life for each second of the game. | |

It's like an Age of Empires kinda game. I haven't tried single player yet but my brother says that a mission takes forever. I tend to believe him since we played multiplayer and it lasted for over 4 hours.

Reputation: 539 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Rep Power: 19 | don't get me wrong, i like multiplayer A LOT!!! i finish the Supreme AI in 5 minutes. just that my buddies take significantly longer to wipe out the other 2 AI. it's just the very factor that makes it suck is that when you get like 500 - 1000 units on your side (and your buddies, and 3 other AIs have that too) then you're in for a huge slow-mo game. that's why we stick to C&C3 these days. i've play single player (missions) on the hardest mode available and the earlier missions are easy. later missions aren't hard, just that it's time consuming to build / defend / attack because there's just sooooooooooooooo many units to go up against. |
