That's how "high-score" works It's up to people to not make you trust the board

Just one idea.
The coop is working fine, the leaderboard is active BUT you log every won mission. If I try for example the first mission 5 times, I will take 5 lines in the Leaderboard.
Overkill?

You can't play as seraphim. The coop missions are respecting the original campaign about all that.

It's the FA campaign so you can play as UEF-Cybran-Aeon but not as Seraphim. And for the Vanilla Campaign, the are Race-based so the first one is only Aeon.

For the record we played mission 1-2-4-6 of FA. It went ok. Mission 1 was a little bit tricky (air air air and air) but it's doable. I've not tested mission 3 and 5 so far.
Yesterday we launched some vanilla missions and damn...I forgot how Supcom's solo was "special". Like oldschools RTS you are limited to Tech 1 or Tech 2 at the beginning. And playing with only T2 Radar on big maps, it's kinda weird.

But so far everything works.
Want simple missions? Go Vanilla.
Compstomping madness? Go FA with 4 players.

Hmm ok ... I only try this with Seraphim and it doesn't work. I can only play with Aeon and Uef.

The server is now saving the (game clock) time it took you to complete mission, with how many players and if you've completed secondary objectives.

Speedrun leaderboard coming soon.

sometimes I think if GPG has made only 50% of all this stuff available today, only because of people like ZeP and so on. They would have earned much more money and SC/FA would have become more famous!!!
the new coop campaign thing is sooo easy to use and nice, and of course all this "mod and map vault" stuff, the automatch and especially GW is so amazing as well. I really love it go ahead guys! *thumbsup*

regards

Replays/observer mode doesn't desync anymore, you can sent great ones to Gyle

(the desync was harmless, all previous replays are watchable).

Well, part of this is kinda natural considering the way you can built up forces between each expansion.

But most of this is because the nature of the economy. For the beginning, instead of the normal 6-8 Mass Extractors, you're probably dealing with 1-2 per player in a full house. This means that your economy is complete shit, even with it being shared. Sure, if everyone stops playing and allows one player to build up you're fine, but otherwise? Mass is a huge bottleneck, especially on the second and forth maps(the first has fewer extractors, but they start at t3, and you have a few t3 fabs to help, though it can still be a bit rough). On those maps, you're facing constant, heavy pressure from the AI, enough to make multiple early mass extractors essentially off limits.

Even latter on this isn't always improved, due to some overall sparse available ME on the maps.

I just played mission 4 and it was awesome. I'm looking for forward for difficulty with 10 times multipled units xD because Mavorbattery would have been a shameless understatement for our base..
