So a friend and I decided to push the limits and attempt to crash our game via extensive overlord exposure.

And by this I mean... Well... Just look at the pictures.

There was a counter for the overlords as he made them. It bugged out around 1000 and reset. We estimate around 1500 overlords.

At this point the game physically will not let him make any more units. It is just ridiculous how many overlords there were.
With that amount of units on screen, hell even on map, its obvious that the lag was intense. We got about 2 fps at all times.

lets assume we have a 4vs4, there is a unit limit needed from 1600 supply (4 * 2 * 200), theoretically this could be 3200 zerglings, not counting mass ovis.

Is it even possible to MAX OUT a 4vs4 when the unit limit seems to be at 1500?

We tried to make them all poop. But at 2fps and a max of 255 or so per unit group, it just wasnt possible. We had a good amount pooping.

2fps? That's still not as bad as the endgame of Income Wars.

I've run into a max unit cap when playing risk. Couldn't move half my troups and couldn't make any new ones. Was kind of hard to win when nobody could attack.
