    now, fix so I can use this irl.

  2. CykoNL says:

    looks cool, but very complicated to put in the game correctly and without giving players major headaches from playing it

  3. icosiel says:

    awesome stuff

  4. buttfiendz says:

    looks like a bunch of faggot shit.

  5. TheGraveyarder says:

    looks complicated yet creative
    a new step for rts games

  6. freshaca3 says:

    Nice. In a few years this will create preety cool games

  7. foxchase313 says:

    i guarantee once you have the mechanics of the game down to a tee, this will be awesome. until you figure them out, it will be kinda frustrating…

    @kidriot Stick to halo

  9. kidriot says:

    Wow, sounds way to complex to enjoy as a game. Sounds more like a college/science program someone made to show…time travel. Lol, way to complicated.

  10. MadeinHell2 says:

    Very interesting idea. I wonder how will it look in the end. And sadly I don’t have the 30$ required to pre-order :P .

    uhh.. i like poop

  12. DoubleGlog says:

    Its abit complicated , because if an AI goes into the past , destroys the factory that made your army , then wont your army not exist? Or if you send them back in time , then they manage to destroy the enemy fleet , but the fleet manages to destroy the factory at the same time , then wont that mean your units get destroyed , because they were never made , and their units never destroyed? Im looking forward to the mechanics of this game.

    And multi-player? I expect a race to be the first to kill the other team’s parents, of course. :)

  14. MrLevelDesigner says:

    Its very frustrating to read such discounts of important innovation. The RTS concept of warring units isn’t new and neither are 3D graphics. War games have been around for a very long time. What is the theme of Chess, after all? Here they invent the tech example future games may use for a less violent or educational theme with rich graphics. These accomplishments with temporal travel are enough by far.

  15. GearzVoNKod3 says:

    wow this game looks amazing… I’ve played some mind blowing games in my time… but this video alone has just made my head feel like it has physically popped

  16. Red01MustangGT says:

    This does seem very interesting. I wonder how mp will work in the “real world” Deffiitely curious about a campaign.

  17. DooMDrat says:

    It’s an alpha version.

  18. wickedounch says:

    I hope they don’t spend so much time on the time travel that they forget to make a good RTS. That’d be a shame.

  19. sniperGasMask says:

    Lollerskates

  20. silverakantor says:

    ……………..wow thats confusing as all hell

  21. Nikkish3 says:

    how will multiplayer be?

  22. MapleFantasy says:

    I hope the graphics will improve though…

  23. leoharrison2001 says:

    I like this idea.

  24. Entropy56 says:

    I suggest that anyone spending time and energy and brain power playing this game should first use their personal assets to get an engineering education before they fritter away their lives on this.

  25. OldSchoolSkill says:

    To game creators: you have interesting concepts: chrono energy, time waves, etc. If you put that much thought into time-strategy / mechanics, why not rethink the game to focus on stuff besides war. Time travelers could go back to unravel mysteries, go forward to find new technologies. I know this seems un-cool or boring to some gamers, but time travel could be used for noble purposes: preventing war, capturing war criminals, seeking evidence to convict them, or proving innocence of the framed.
