Ok who's in it that can well get into or start a game. I'm having a heck of a time trying to figure out how to start it since well I own Supreme Commander and its installed as well.

P3wp. Count me out!
P3wp. Count me out!Alternatly, participate in 10 tournaments in SupCom or win one in your ratings bracket. Planning on winning one on Monday =P
And dman, this post (http://forums.gaspowered.com/viewtopic.php?t=20308) will probably sort things out, if things are wonky with the GPGNet client.
Because you didn't close retail GPGnet when you installed the FA beta, and that upgrades your GPGnet to the new version. Now when you enter the retail server with the FA GPGnet version, the server patches it back to the old version, making you unable to get on the beta server.
Seems like it's best to backup the old GPGNet before installing FA if you still want to play SupCom.

Haven't had a chance to play it yet, then again i don't remember seeing an NDA on it I'd have to check.
Thanks for the info Omsion

Its already linked to my account.
Well unable to do that figured I'd try the performance test... well it didn't have units in there but damn (sorry didn't get SS's wasn't thinking) I love how the new interface is. Mind you its been a while since I've played but theres alot more options on the screen and not even talking build options since i couldn't see that. There a chartography map of the layout on the land, easy control of split screen aspect/mini maps on/off all without going into a deep menu system. As well think system performance increased as well.
Truely only way to tell alot of things is if I can get it up and running so bear with me when I'll get some time to hit it up.

Sorry Omsion but it didn't even work its locked to my account.
Got myself a key :)
3-1 in yesterday's tourny was enough to win my low bracket.
btw, deathman20, did you ever try posting to the GPG FA Beta board? The developers have been relativitly active there as of late.

Deathman - turns out we were both wrong, had to register a new account and sign into the FA beta server and then put in the cdkey - just got it up and running. :D

Well I could post them on the forums picture by picture, or I could make a .rar file full of them, which is probably easier for me, but what would you prefer? :)

Hmmm rar file I can always upload them and post them on the site from there...
PM coming your way in a few min.
Some stuff...excuse the lack of AA and crappy medium textures...only on a 7600GT, after all.
----------------
Seripham Chicken Bot thingy...3 land attack weapons, all pretty useful. Seems to be more damaging then the GC, but slightly slower and less HP.

Some Titans get wtfpwned by a larger force of T2 UEF Mongoose bots...pretty explosions.
