I remember once I use to argue with Total Annihilation people over Starcraft.

I ask them to explain to me the strategies in TA. They really couldn't give me a decent answer that I would be satisfied with. Saying it has 12318209382 units, 3D with great physics, true projectile that miss isn't enough to make a game deeply strategic.

Then again, there are BW players that like to spout out 300-400 APM as though that was strategy but they are probably just crappy BW players and even worse in other RTS.

If your friend likes Supreme commander, just let him like it. No point in arguing about it if neither sides played the other game.

While ordinarily I would flame your post because it's yet another chatlog of yet another person bashing SC yet again, I'll simply say that if you want your friend to play SC, you simply need to show him one or all of the following 3 things:

1) Pro replays (to get an up-close look at the skill involved, and when watched in multiplayer you can explain some of the more amazing parts of the game and direct his focus)

2) Televised league games, esp. championship games like an OGN Final (to get a feel for the size of the fanbase)
3) Pro FPVODs (to showcase the necessary speed and multitasking to compete at high levels)

Usually that is enough to inspire even the newbiest of newbs to try playing. Then once they try, the game will either inspire them further to become determined to improve (which is when the game can be appreciated on so many different levels and becomes truly enjoyable) or it will break their spirits once they realize how hard it is. Both outcomes accomplish the same goal: your friend will have the utmost respect for SC.


I tried this.

"SC is basically just a spam fest"

I dont talk to that guy much anymore.

I haven't really played SupCom. Nor ever seen it
But it is a GAME

Starcraft is a SPORT, with PAID PROFESSIONAL PLAYERS.
Sure Kespa isn't like NBA, or anything, but does SupCom have a KESPA? Didn't think so.

Not to mention, it's almost a religion in certain parts of the world. Like Seoul PC Bangs (at least a few years ago)

I agree. You can compare them objectively and technically you can't say one game is better than the other, but you'll find that starcraft is more fun to play for you for reasons you find strong enough to say SC is better than SupCom. That's that...

If supreme commander had better graphics I might have decided to play with it longer than a few hours. For all the graphical power the game requires from your PC, the game looks bad on all levels.
If it ain't Dutch, it ain't Park Yeong Min - CJ fighting!

i'm pretty sure SC is a better game than supcom, not only for the reason its more fun for me. SC was a milestone for the entire RTS genre, and it still is popular after 10 years. What about supcom? I played when the game came out and there were some ppl but it was all hype, nowadays u get to see as many as only 500 players on their server, the game lasted what, a couple months? This fact alone already tells you which game is more superior, not to mention the gameplay mechanics.
