TA *is* the best RTS game ever, including starcraft, C&C, Age of whathaveyou, and all the rest.

God bless the Modders that are doing this.

Dont forget all the great custom units from TAUCP and the others! :up:

If this launches it will be the best thing since sliced bread.

Wow. I knew the TA community was still alive (see planetannihilation.com) but I didn't realise so many UTers were also TA fans.

As for the TAUCP comment, I don't think we will include too many third party units, mostly due to time constraints. theres some odd 150 units in TA alone, now add CC.... yikes.

However, I am hopeing to make additional units fairly painless to add. (This mostly depends on James and Bjorn though)

Prod them about it

Arrg! The **** boats! The computer always slaughtered me if it was an ocean level! Bombing me when I couldn't even see them!

Anyways... awesome. Do a good job and whatnot.

that game used to be the ****, I actually made alot of my own units and stuff for the game also. My friend was also awsome at the game, I never beat him once at it

oh yeah, check out www.tauniverse.com if your interested also.....

I loved TA, pity there isn't a sequal.
One question.... How will you get enough players on each side? In big battles there were alot of units, there arn't that many players.

What will be the Max and Min for players?

[legacy-Max]

YAY ! TA rocks !
When I bought it, I thought it woudn't be as good as AOE....but when I played it, was great

[legacy-FireSlash]

Most of the units will be AI controlled. We will also have to tweak the **** out of the replication, obviously. Players will have the ability to command units from the classic 'God' view, or get a first person view on the battle (Who trusts their peewee rush with 400 lines of Unreal Script? )

[legacy-«Scavenger-X»]

HOLY **** YES!!!!!!

TA FOREVER!

make it rock boys, make it rock :up:

Don't get out much? :P . Total Annihilation is an RTS (like Command & Conquer and Starcraft), that broke the bar when it comes to the number of different units (the game shipped with nearly 250 different units and structures). Also, it was completely customizable, as can be seen at http://www.planetannihilation.com. There are thousands of user-created units, along with the official CC pack that added another 50 units per side. So basically we are trying to recreate that mayhem with the UT2003 engine, adding the ability to directly control any unit from First Person view, and little tweaks and what not that we find will make the MOD that much more fun to play. Hope that helps.
