Supreme Commander 2 is announced

Wednesday, November 12th, 2008

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.

Oh noes!!! Nerf teh Riptidez!!

Thursday, November 15th, 2007

Well, lo and behold a new patch (3596) has been released and it appears the Devs agreed with those who say the Riptides are overpowered.  Their cost has been increased 20%.  This is a pretty serious blow to the unit, it now compares much less favorably to the Pillar and Mongoose and is no longer very [...]

Tuesday, July 31st, 2007

The v3260 patch for Supreme Commander came out yesterday. This was the patch that was announced over a month and a half ago with the promise of “You asked for them. They’re coming.” As was correctly speculated, “they” turned out to be new units; specifically, T2 fighter/bombers for UEF and Cybran and [...]
