I just made this out of curiosity.

From what I've seen so far many people are drawn to factions like HQ and Russia, rather than playing with Scorpion Cell (which seems to be the underdog number one).

 

I for myself prefer Psi Corps over everything which seems to be among the unpopular factions. It allows so many fiendish tactics.

Also screw health, you got hover engines to run away

PsiCorps. Their only cool unit imo is Libra (clones), but they are VERY cool. Just kite almost everything to death

[Black/Brunez]

Euro Alliance by far. I love playing with them since the beginning.

 

And I´m fucking surprised to see that Scorpion Cell is the underdog. It´s, be far one of the easiest factions to play with and the best for rushes, finishing games in about 5 minutes.

[Mister_Pants]

I'm a huge fan of Scorpion Cell. Mainly because of their early "All or Nothing" rushes that can essentially ruin the game for the SC player than the one being rushed, if executed poorly. That, and I love the Plague Splatter.

[Speeder]

Scorpion Cell is easy to play since when?

[Protozoan]

lol, now that I got my brother into playing MO, he says he likes Scorpion Cell the most, but all he does with them is infantry rush basically, but it works rather well by the looks of it, certainly surprised me.

[X1Destroy]

Muhrica.

So far, it's the faction that suit my playstyle the most. Rapid combine-arms assaults with paradrops, Abrams and Aeroblazes.

Russia is the second most favourite one, because of Wolfhound and Rhino. Both work very well with conscripts spam.

[lovalmidas]

China. Because.

Russia's my favorite. Specifically, "Russia" as in "the Soviet Union". I just like playing the bad guy, since they get so many cool and intimidating toys (such as the Apocalypse Tank, the very reason why I play as the Soviets in the first place). Also, I love the irony in an American playing as its most hated enemy in the last half-century.

 

Ever since I first played Red Alert 2 (back in 2007-2009 or so, since I got The First Decade version), I mostly played as Russia; the other Soviet factions - Iraq, Libya, and Cuba - simply did not hold my interest, as I preferred playing as the acknowledged superpower. When I first played Mental Omega (2.0c or 2.0psi version, I can't recall), the option of China opened up, but I still preferred Russia overall.

 

Now, with MO 3.0, I continue my tradition of playing Russia the most. The Allies I don't play all that much, despite the cool toys they have, since I don't like their aesthetics all that much in comparison. I don't know why I don't play Yuri/Epsilon very often though, despite liking their aesthetics - perhaps out my sympathies for the Soviets to crush the Allies, and to destroy the traitor Yuri.

Oh yes, definitely. I've been having Sabaton's song "Panzerkampf" stuck in my head since last week.  I actually thought up of a parody of it for Mental Omega too!

I thought the soviet union was the good guy...try to liberate the poor repressed Americans from their decedent capitalist society, but yeah i like playing as the Soviet union the most too.

[YuriInitiate98]

HQ is my favourite subfaction by far, as it has many cool units and fits my defensive playstyle the most out of the epsilon factions. And the Collossus are a very good and versitile unit, the only thing it lacks from being the best tier 3 heavy tank in game IMO is hover tech and anti-infantry capability! (But that would make it OP, so I like it as it is)

I would never touch Mental Omega again if it could hover and had anti-infantry capabilities.

Huuh. It seems nobody likes to play aas Latin Confederation. That's really., they're one of my favorites to play as. I guess THEY are the true underdogs of MO. :((

[mevitar]

Nobody loves the Bomb Buggies? :(
It is strange indeed.

Although remember it is about people's favourite faction, and you can only have one vote. LC might not be as "hated" as they seem now.

Edited by mevitar, 11 December 2013 - 12:19 PM.

[X1Destroy]

The only thing that make me still want to play as LC is the Catastrophe.

Other than that, no. I just don't like suicidal bombings.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-

[Petya]

Well I like all of the Epsilon and Soviet factions, but the number one favourite is HQ. Because of Rahn and Irkalla. xd
