pogoman979 10 Posted June 16, 2011 Anyone notice this is very similar to the Empires mod for HL2? Empires is an RTS mod with humans playing in first person as the units and vehicles. e.g. http://www.empiresmod.com/drupal/ Btw I'm not complaining or anything as i loved that mod and dreamed of it becoming a game made by a real studio. I just realised how similar they were and found it interesting. It's a real shame that carrier command GM does not have MP though as Empires is only MP which is what makes it so much fun.

Big Dawg KS 6 Posted June 16, 2011 IMO Empires mod was more similar (if not the same concept) to CTI (aka Warfare in ArmA 2) than anything else. Carrier Command has similarities to this (and I guess to Empires with the vehicle customization), but there's a big diffence in scope with Carrier Command.

You figure that they were also inspired by the original Carrier Command? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

max power 21 Posted June 18, 2011 I don't know, you just said they were similar. I don't know anything about Empires mod, so I was asking you a question. Do you figure they were inspired by Carrier Command, or do you think the gameplay is just similar? Was it an insulting question? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pogoman979 10 Posted June 21, 2011 Ah sorry, i misinterpreted your statement. I thought you were being sarcastic and saying "Do you think perhaps BIS based CC:GM on Carrier Command?", because you thought i was implying that BIS based CC:GM on Empires. Apologies. I'm doing exams atm and keep overanalysing everything. I have no idea if the Empires creator did base it on carrier command, but it seems plausible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Dawg KS 6 Posted July 5, 2011 Wait a minute, CC doesn't have MP? It won't at launch, but the devs have expressed their wish to patch it in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
