I don't know about your rig, but I was using a dual core and wasn't really noticing the load times that much.

As a post script I tried yet again to try and gain another one hundred yards in the World War One-style sodomy that is playing against Masari and got crushed again. I haven't picked up the game in about a month and a half, and actually got sucked in by Dark Crusade.



Maybe there's some tactic to counter this, but if so it's beyond the AI.


Research plasma bombs and phase 1 as soon as possible. Get a habitat walker and outfit it with a teleport accelerator and a bunch of cost optimizers. Crank out as many lost ones as you can. Divide them into groups of 6 and run up to your opponent's most vital buildings (recycle center + generator for Novus, income building for Masari) and plant plasma bombs all around. For Masari buildings, activate the phase ability as soon as the bombs are planted to avoid dying from the explosion. Repeat as soon as abilities recharge.


That's pretty much it. Seems pretty foolproof.
