Early Unlock

To cover off some key points related to the Early Unlock period for Deluxe Edition owners and pre-orders in general.

• Early Unlock starts at 7am PDT / 10am EDT / 3pm BST / 4pm CEST April 17.
  
• Ranked matchmaking and Leaderboards WILL NOT be available during the 7-day Early Unlock period. This is to ensure that all players start at an equal position in the rankings.
  
• Quick play matchmaking will still be available, using a hidden MMR to match players; this will not count towards any official ranking.
  
• Deluxe Edition pre-order owners gain 7-day Early Unlock access to Tempest Rising, and receive the base game, the digital art book, a digital download of the original soundtrack, and the 'Commander Pack' items.
  
• Standard Edition pre-order owners also receive the 'Commander Pack' items.
  
• You may pre-order the game anytime before full release on Thursday, April 24 at 7am PDT / 10am EDT / 3pm BST / 4pm CEST and still receive the bonuses for each edition.
  
  • If you pre-order the Deluxe Edition before April 24, then you will be able to play the game for the remainder of the Early Unlock period.
    
  • If you pre-order either edition before April 24, you will still receive the 'Commander Pack' items.

Please don't suck lol. Been waiting for this since generals. Feels like we might finally have the RTS we need.

Act of war should have been it but they listened to the shouty morons that can't handle losing and simplified it. Then it just got killed with tank spamming and they abandoned it.

Get the basics right, keep the factions balanced and stop any major OP unit from making it the only way to win. Keep adding content/units/maps to keep games and tactics varied and this could be mega.

Can't wait

Hey Guys

i just wanted to tell some experience i made till now in the game and starting to split it in positive - wishes and negative .

Positive : the game already makes fun .
- nice tower defence .
- nice units .
- the maps till now are ok .
- good that there are enouph materials to build new units over and over again really
thumbs up .
-the grafik seems to be good not awesome but good

Wishes : i hope there will come more races "aliens " or 2 different "aliens races"
- more maps is a must have like some 6 player and some 8 player maps but more are
great too .

Negative : the GDF are way to OP , the Scrambler smashes all away with their range and
the towers defence are insane of them too . i mean its ok but than the other need
such towers too .
- the towers from the , i call them for now "not GDF" are nice but low dmg and low
range
-the unit building is kind of to slow its hard to push the enemy away with 2 units
agains 20 .

Fazit : great game , lets hope they make it awesome , i cant wait till all is perfect :-)
