I've been replaying using 0.4.6 the last week or so, and having a great time getting re-acquainted with everything.   I have some scattered thoughts and questions about the future direction that seemed best to just consolidate into one misc. topic.

Let's get the GloboTech one out of the way first #Tongue
1.  Globotech is getting it's own campaign -- that's pretty cool.   Is it true that the side is going to be playable in skirmish/MP in the future?  If so, what does that mean for the tech structures, and how is the GT arsenal going to be changed?

2.  If the TD GDI missions are getting TI-ified -- would the Nod ones be a possibility?  Mainly because well, they won the war in this timeline, you know.
The other benefit of having the TD missions (both sets) is that these would be good "gateway drugs" for newbies to TI, because those old WW missions are simpler and have a slower ramp up on unit introduction.

3.  Are we going to see more instances like GDI 06 "Clean Slate" where existing missions are redone for whatever reason?  I know you guys are already aware that some of the missions don't necessarily sync perfectly in terms of when they happen, where they happen, equipment a side has, etc.

finally, 4. Do you guys need help with anything, and if so, maybe consider creating a page for open positions on your site?

Thanks Smile

Hey. I'm sorry for the really slow reply. I have been off modding for a while but have been back on it the past couple of weeks, thus only just getting around to coming back onto the forums. If you're still around I'll happily answer your questions.


1) GloboTech will have their own campaign, their playability in Skirmish however is undecided even within the staff section. It's something we're going to figure out when we've finished the more important aspects first. We just mainly wanted to get some form of playable GT out so a campaign seems like the way to go.

2) If you have been following the updates this past week then I'm sure they will answer your question. Wink

3) Yes, there will definitely be a lot of these instances. The fact is, the more you develop maps, the better you get at doing it, thus older maps become lackluster in comparisson to the newer versions. A lot of TI maps suffer from this problem (GDI Mission 08 is a good example of this), so maps will be remade over the course of time.

4) Such a page exists: http://www.ppmforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=34778


Again, sorry for the slow reply, but thank you for your input. Smile

1) To be exact, GT requirement in skirmish is fan request and as starting point, that was never planned for and thats why it would mean the very questions of tech structures what to do if reverse this decision and as such decision is not made.

Thanks for the answers -- no worries on the delay  Smile

Aro, I sent you a PM regarding the small amount of contribution I can offer with everything else I have going on -- I won't be too hurt if you don't need my services  Laughing
