[quote quoting="post"] I always zoom in and out with the mouse wheel. But that moves in fairly big steps, and I've often wished for finer control. --> Is there any way to zoom completely smoothly i.e. not in resolution steps? --> Is there any way to zoom other than the mouse wheel? Thx [/quote] Are you seeing framerate drops when you zoom? It may explain the "steps" you are seeing.

I've encountered the same thing in a few cases. I feel like it's a combination of the way pathing works and also unit formations.

[quote who="Uvah" reply="5" id="3695569"] Still using Chrome with ad blocker and only encounter this problem with Forbes and Business Insider. They want you to disable ad blocker and I just go elsewhere to view the same article. [/quote] Yep, same here. I use adblocker and Ghostery in Chrome. Its nice going to sites without getting ads, and the ones I actually white-list cant use targeted ads due to ghostery...lol.

[quote who="DMF" reply="1" id="3694898"] What was the planet in Avatar that had Unobtainium on it? Yeah, that one. [/quote] Haha, no doubt. I think Unobtainium is one of the best elements ever... Avatar made the spelling a little more sciency sounding, but we all know what they did. I feel like Pandora was a crazy hive mind style jungle planet?

Hey everyone, We're sticking with a reoccurring theme this time around. If you could add a simple gameplay feature to OTC, what would it be? This one is pretty open so it could be something as small as a QoL feature or a game changing addition. Have fun with it and let the creativity flow!

Hello everyone, I'm slowly expanding the weekly discussion across all communities and hope we can have some fun with it. This weeks topic is going to be a wishlist of sorts. If you could add a planet type to the game what would it be? I'm curious to know the planet type,bonuses, penalties, etc. Have some fun with it and it doesn't have to be a super serious suggestion.

Hey everyone, This weeks discussion is going to be a wishlist style question. If you could have a single new unit added to the game what would it be? I would like to know the tier, strengths, weaknesses (yes it has to have a weakness), air/land, etc.

[quote who="Esch1lus" reply="1" id="3694056"] Best 1: Reaper for the fx T1 seems weak overall, swarm of T1 units are decimated in matter of seconds from midgame on. [/quote] Yea, I agree. They do a good job as fodder in the late game...lol [quote who="RomeoReject" reply="2" id="3694123"] Best Tier 1 to me is the Medic, as its the only one who maintains a use in to the late game. Incidentally, that makes it my favourite

Invest in a good Solid State Drive as well. They come in many shapes and sizes now that the market is saturated with them. I plan on getting a 500gb m.2 SSD for my next build. I've been using a SSD for my operating system drive for years now and its amazing. Link to the build I'm doing in a month or so.

I enjoy getting out on the water and fishing when I have time. I also do some hobby visual design work when the mood strikes me. Other than that it's usually playing one of the many games sitting in my Steam library collecting dust.

It's not a show I'm really a fan of, but I will watch it if there's nothing else going on. It doesn't a lot in the way of comedy or entertainment for me...
