What i would like to see is 1 new sub-faction to the existing allies, soviet and epsilon in a total of three (9 to 12). Since the basic foundation already exist, it would be easier than if they made a new separate faction from scratch altogether.

I think it would become a bit too silly then.. You would really have to scrape from the bottom of the proverbial creative barrel. I think they're going to make 1 new subfaction instead of 3, not sure.

My hopes for a 4th faction would be something non-national. A new faction that's not tied to any nation or ethnicity, like Epsilon. I was always interested in a breakway faction from Epsilon (though maybe rethink it being a Yuri clone). Or maybe do something similar to the Generals mod, Reign of Conflagration, where a rogue leader (Crazed Kenegawa scientist maybe?) raises a robotic army to put an end to all the violence.

SkyNet?

I always thought a nice side faction would be a German-based nationalist terrorist/resistance organization. It would be what became of what would have been the Nazis, minus a lot of the crazy symbolism and other Nazi-esque things. Given that just removing Hitler from the timeline would not end the tension in Germany instantly, this was just my idea of what happened to the nationalist spirit after WW1.

(I'm not necessarily saying that this should be a fourth side, especially since it wouldn't be numerically comparable to any of current factions, but it would be cool to feature such a side faction in a mission or something.)

[Reisjin]

That would possibly mean one less member in the Euro-Alliance. A fourth faction could be an interesting sight to see, but at this point it will most likely be only accessible through skirmish games since all factions in the main plot have already amassed their forces internationally which means that a fourth faction can be almost immediately overwhelmed. Also gotta think about their style of architectue, will it be like Wolfenstein's or something similar to Yuri's? A loophole to this would be implememting the concept of time traveling, going to an alternate history of the Mental Ome timeline but with Yuri still involved somewhat.

[Meyerm]

Nah. Let's not include time travel this time.

[Darkstorm]

As I said, it's a militant rebel organization, meaning Germany-proper is still a Euroalliance member. I was mainly talking about a small independent mini-faction that could appear in the campaign, not a fully playable faction. If it did have it's own structures, not just using the normal tent structures to make camps, they'd probably be a mix of greyish tents and bunker-like concrete buildings. As for unique tech, they could use gauss weapon (similar to rail guns) or sonic weapons.

Of course, I don't really think we need a new fourth factio. I just thought I'd put this idea, for a small side faction, forth while we were on the subject.

Before we further with the speculation, I want to find out more information. Speeder, even though there's no official confirmation of a new faction, chaos tech is still going somewhere. I've heard numerous people on the team say Chaos tech is "going to someone else." Can you at least tell us if that "someone else" is an existing subfaction or not?

Maybe old epsilon subfaction "Chaos force" makes a return?

[Zenothist]

I'm afraid we cannot comment about that at this time. We will let you know in time where chaos tech will go to.

[Meyerm]

But it IS going somewhere?

[switchblade16]

maybe Speeder cant trust me coz of my grammar.

I think its better if Stalin's Fist are replace in soviet war factory.
I think its better if Nuclear Reactor are prequisite in soviet lab not in radar tower.
I hope the flags of all allied subfaction are seen in the cameo of strategy center, shield command and robot ops center.
I think its better if a blue Apocalypse and brownish prism tank is back. if its color is able.
I think the body of Tesla Tank is better than the body of Tesla Cruiser.

Not only that but I think everyone(almost) will agree with this particular pic(which sums up the reason why the Mentalmeisters will almost NEVER listen or even read to your suggestions) or in Filipino *Di nila papansinin mga suhestyon mo kasi walang kwetna ung mga gusto mo sa paniningin nila*:

Your suggestions arent really affecting gameplay,for example why make the nuclear plant be a prequisite to the lab again?

Aliens. They stole all supplies from Yuri when he wasn't watching.

Yes, it will go somewhere.

 

[Allied Commander ???]

Actually I'm still concerning about the rules file release (I don't understand why rules files can't be release to the public) I suggest that MM can release the rules file together in a rar or zip file with the main mental omega downloader without letting the mix files being opened.

[Speeder]

BR1 or even BR2 rulesmo is far from final and I don't want multiple rules spread around in the public, if you want to, exchange it between yourselves in private.

[switchblade16]

What Speeder just said pretty much sums up why rules files MUST not be shared in public.  So for those who've read what he just said I hope you heed his words.

I don't realy get it. I mean the part that BR1 INIs are not final. How is that possible? Aren't all changes you made after the release will go in BR2, and any changes after that go in BR3 and etc?
