Supreme Commander 2 is announced

The development of Supreme Commander 2 has been announced. The unexpected part is that the series is switching from its former publisher, THQ, to Square Enix. Yes, that Square Enix, the ones that make Final Fantasy.

This sounds like it could be incredibly awesome, and I’m definitely looking forward to it. No release date is set yet and it’ll probably be a while, but who knows, maybe this blog will become active again with the release of SupCom2.

    That’s the best news I’ve heard in quite some time.

    Since I don’t have Internet access at home I’m glad they have not gone with Stardock (like they did for their last game) otherwise I would not be able to install the patches since Stardocks patches can only be installed via Impulse and Impulse only works if there is a net connection. If previous form is any indication I will need the patches!

    Looking forward to it. What ever happened to that other SupCom1 expansion pack? The experimentals or something.

    It got cancelled.

    I’m actually glad. They can now focus on Supcom 2. BRING IT! I have some ideas for it on my blog if you’re bored under ‘RTS Concept’, btw.

    WOOT! sup com 2! pleas don’t make it unplayable by ridiculous system requirements and crippled by lack of promised or overlooked features! I just want to play with my 10000 units without all the micro like we were promised! we got sooo close with fa! maybe put in a resource that requires map control like energy in perimeter or gold in rise of nations. also don’t make the the multilayer interface suck, so that the problems the game does have can be easily fixed and distributed by the community. Oh GPG, maker of almost-epic games, pleas learn from your past! that is all I ask!

    I’m very interested to see what Sqeenix bring to the table with their involvement. They’re a Japanese RPG developer so this is a massive change of direction for them. GPG must have confidence in them though, or why’d they bring them on board? Will check back frequently for more news.

    This will be great, the vids over at gametrailers look decent enough. I just wish they would add light sources and such, night fights would be a good thing to have. *shrugs*

    I have a major problem with my online Supcom as whenever I load up GPG net all the options to join game, host game, join ranked game ect ect are faded out and I cannot click on them, also if I join a chat channel it instantly bans me from the general chat, I also cannot download patches, replays, mods, maps ect ect. Could someone please tell me how to solve this as I really would like to play my favourite game online.

    Im really looking forward to this game. Im hoping this site will get some more traffic when it comes out. I only recently was able to actually play SC for a fair amount of time as I just got a decent computer. Has sucked up so many hours so far.

    Also, have you all seen the trailer and gameplay footage from Supreme Commander 2? I just Recently saw it, its looking really epic, especially with the experimentals.
