The army system isn't used by anyone playing competitively and you can set in the option to avoid auto forming an army when you select units and engies.

It was too clunky and it was skipped by anyone except newbies . It wasn't working good , so you basically control units like every rts.

The units now are much faster in turning and speed, they don't need 10 seconds to turn. The general pace of the game has been speeded up .

The resource nodes upgrade comes at very late game eventually , you never boost the income more than once per match . The interesting thing about economy is to decide to fight or not for the special nodes with the ashes symbol. They are heavily defended . Another interesting thing is that nodes have defenses spawning wiht time passing , so it's another strategi decision , if try to rush nodes and become weaker or expand slowly but leaving territory to the enemy.

I know that this game is not everyone's cup of tea , but I fear many have abandoned the game even before scratching the surface of it. I personally like the linear but strategic side of the gameplay.

Unfortunately the all hovering units , two single races with weak story and other stuff discouraged many. Devs always said that they spent a lot of resources building the brand new engine and seems like they were forced to cut here in there.
