Said the crying EMO kid.

Not playing with SuperStorm v3..? Changes the game play quite a lot. I think it comes with the game... dunno

Fresh install, no mods.

I can't entirely disagree... The AI is terrible, the pathing is even worse, and worse more is the imbalance. Maps are too small for pretty much everything from base structures to units. I often have to activate cheats and destroy all the useless and annoying things that block pathing and AI, like trees and rocks. The Aliens are probably the worst implemented race of any game I have ever played to date. The rushing is ridiculous, and they are incredibly overpowered.

I can't seem to find anything regarding this on YT for gameplay reference. I don't play online really at all, I prefer campaign or solo play. Are these changes implemented into the original campaign, or is it a choice to select said mod in skirmish or online only?

Yeah, it's for skirmish. Don't play online so idk about that (does this game still have online?). It doesn't really change much that I can tell, mostly lets you set teams a bit easier and modify resources. There's also IEO v8.3 which changes pretty much everything, both good and bad. Not sure if it fixes the pathfinding, but I also play on the bigger, more open maps to try and avoid it.

Ahh, gatcha. I reinstalled a couple days ago and started playing the campaign again. Just finished the mission to build the cannon for 40k metal on hard. It's easier than I remember, lol. I tried Skirmish with the SuperStorm v3 enabled, it's been too long since I've played the main campaign to notice the difference. I do wish there was a campagin revamp or something. I dislike pretty much everything about it. This game, for me, is a love/hate relationship. I love it but hate how pretty much everything is implemented. Haven't had to deal with the OP aliens yet, but I must reiterate, alien has to be the absolute worst implemented race in any game I have ever played. Ever. Campaign needs some serious rebalancing. The rushing in skirmish is just as bad as the campaign.
What is IEO v8.3? Is that a separate mod, or is it implemented as a choice in Skirmish the way SuperStorm is?

Implemented the same as SuperStorm. It's one of the choices at the top when in skirmish. I think it helps the AI a bit, but it's still not perfect. The ED and UCS still build themselves into a disaster of a base, while they both spam bombs and nukes. The aliens still struggle to walk around each other, but it feels like the combat units are less effected with it. Also, the AI starts cheating way earlier. On medium difficulty the AI is a joke, while on hard it is incredibly hard to keep pace with the AI. With them able to build 3x more than you can, no matter how much you prioritize resources.
