FIGHT THE CHAOS. OR HARNESS ITS POWER.

Centuries after Humanity first left Earth, all forms of life in the Milky Way have evolved toward an inward tranquility. But there has been a mutation. A mysterious organism barrels toward the surface of a lone, resource-rich planet known as Ecosystem 9, on a mission to consume all it encounters.

Grey Goo is a real-time strategy (RTS) game that combines classic strategy mechanics and a balanced combat system with an emphasis on large-scale decision-making. It puts you at the center of a tactical struggle for survival—and ultimately, control of Ecosystem 9.

Command one of three unique factions: the Humans, masters of defensive architecture; the Beta, a proud, versatile alien race; or the Goo, an enigmatic, highly mobile life form. Fight from behind massive walls, attack from strategic outposts, or swallow your enemies whole. Just remember, the choices you make on the battlefield will mean the difference between glorious victory and agonizing defeat.Features

• Find the faction that fits your play style—and master it by taking on the AI or the Grey Goo community.
• Experience the conflict on Ecosystem 9 up close and personal in the single-player campaign.
• Join the fray on Steam and find opponents through skill-based matchmaking.
• Change the rules of the battlefield with unit-altering tech upgrades.
• Deliver devastating blows by constructing game-ending Epic units.
• Take the battle offline via Local Area Network play.
• Create your own battlefields with the Grey Goo map editor and share them with the community via Steam Workshop.

O jogo tem um ambiente muito porreiro e as animações/cinematics são brutais. Tenho estado a tentar engrenar com isto, já que RTS nunca foi o meu forte, infelizmente. De qualquer forma parece estar a ser muito bem recebido, é mais um PC blockbuster para a "Master Race".
2015 começa bem, portanto. Esperemos que seja bom presságio.

Tenho de experimentar isto, parece me bem porreiro...

Não fui a bola com o jogo.

Boas!
É um bom jogo!

A AI está bastante boa e agressiva, o que te obriga a teres sempre que ter uma guarnição de suporte na base enquanto andas no mapa a fazer objectivos...
Estou a gostar bastante... Gráficamente está porreiro e as animações estão muito boas...

Para já dou-lhe um 8 em 10...

Cumprimentos,

Hoje foi lançado um novo update, por isso cá ficam as release notes:

Here are this week's game update notes! We have other updates planned after this one, so if you do not see your particular issue resolved, we are working on it.

To ensure the integrity of your game experience, we had to make several changes to the core game files. This required a wipe of all save files, as well as the reset of any previously saved hotkey configurations. Make note of any hotkey configurations, and if you have a mid-mission save try to finish it before we implement the patch! Your overall campaign progress will not be lost, just all individual save files for Campaign missions and Skirmish.

Because of these performance improvements, it would be beneficial to re-run the Autodetect feature in the game after the patch downloads.

For those who are not seeing save games from offline mode or are unable to matchmake when online, please ensure that 'Steam Cloud' is synchronized and the patch has been successfully applied. You can check your Steam Cloud configuration by following these steps:

1 - Click on "Steam' menu item while in Steam's app

2 - Click on 'Settings' in the drop down menu

3 - Click on 'Cloud' in the left menu

4 - Ensure the 'Enable Steam Cloud synchronization...' is checked

Contact customer support at support.greybox.com to submit a ticket on any specific issues you come across.

Game Update Notes

Movement
