Apparently, it is now closed.

O bugger. Is there still a way to get my hands on the beta? Perhaps a more-- discrete way, if you know what I mean?

The game looks interesting. I haven't played Total Annihilation, but I've read a lot of praise about it. I'll wait what the reviews say, and if it is positive, I'll probably buy it eventually.

For the person who asked for information:

Not really.
I think if you had been faster, they'd have very discretely given you an account.

I am pretty sure that a beta multiplayer only version of Supreme Commander was released to the public or something like that, but people have managed to mod it to unlock the ai allowing you to play on skirmish

Im waiting for supreme commander to come out.I have that on reserve.
I mean the scale...Its just so huge.I think the release date is late feburary.Itll probably make me stop playing Med 2 as much as i do at the moment.

Id say the biggest influence on me to get the game was moon 2150
I got it like 6 years ago for 3 dollars in a bargain bin.Best 3 dollars i ever spent. Nukes and customizable units.I love nukes

Ya I actually think some hackers cracked the code but i think the awesome people fixed it.

I know that the AI takes over if a player leaves, was quite surprised when it made a big airborne invasion into the back of my base where I had no stationary defenses.

Are you sure you don't mean Earth 2150? That was quite a good game with awesome graphics for it's time, even quite decent for today I think.

All Hail TA!

If anyone plays as Arm, shame on you! Core FTW!

This topic was gonna come sooner or later! Supreme commander looks amazing!

ALL HAIL TA, Arm and core are no different from one ecother, other than Core having the krogoth, but then again you can download units, bantha makes a good counter, you need 3 of them though, but they can over whelmed by numbers in return and so on...

The demo is out. Some download links:

3D Gamers
Strategy Informer
Gamers' Hell
Fragland
Gamespot
4Players
Extreme-Players

The demo is 1.1 gigabytes zipped. The 4Players link is working well for me - slightly over 100 kb/s, which is the download speed of my connection.

I tried the SC demo out and hated it. It reminded me why I hate RTS games in general.

It's not all hate for the RTS genre though, it's just that Relic has utterly spoiled me with their excellent RTS offerings. I can't get enough of DoW:DC and CoH in skirmish mode.
