Is it better than Supreme Ruler 2020?

[Benzo-Kazooie]

I really love grand strategy games such as Super Power 2 and tried Supreme Ruler 2020. I was completely let down.

The game goes back at an extremely low pase, was over complicated, and controlling military units was a nightmare

Is this version any different or will i still find the same things?

[TrolleybusFan]

There has been changes but other than the disgusting UI on this version it runs the same unfortunatly :( Slow and not very interesting A.I (nothing ever seems to happen unless you make it happen) It's a shame because I loved SR 2020.

They have made a lot of improvements to ai and different things like releasing nations. IMO the updates and new things they have added make it far superior to the other games, plus it has all of the eras of the past games so you're getting an upgraded version of all of them in Ultimate.

This is completely false. The game speed alone is at least 4x faster.

There are major improvements if you are interested in the Surpreme Ruler series. The game can still be slow at particular times which can become unbearable for those used to fast progress.

Yeah, I can't even play 2020 at this point due to how dated it's become.

SR:U is a considerable performance increase over 2020, you can actually make it 15 years before it gets too bogged down.

SR:U also allows you to play from several points fron 1936 till 2020.

SR:U does feature a much more aggressive AI

The resource differences will be a bit off-putting though. Its no longer water, its Rubber. Which I like but others have expressed their objections to that decision.

i did a 49-91 game in cold war....took 3 months did a 49-70 in ultimate maybe 2 weeks? speed is way better MP speed needs to be a priority but thats that always been an issue SP speed is way way better

Not sure in what respect you meant this, but I still play SR2020, infact was playing it prior to typing this message. :)

Did they patch 2020 or something? Last patch was 4 years ago.

It could also be my low end I3, considering others report going 40yrs in SR:U without unbearable slowdowns. So this might just be scaling. But SR:2020 usually gets unplayable for me after about 4-5years unless it's modded to be a global war at the start.

the only thing i dont like in SR U is the red and blue sides countries are taking.

You realize you can turn that off in the game settings, right?

[Chris-BattleGoat]

It also defaults off for modern day IIRC.
