Ashes of the Singularity requires a unique login for each player to play Multiplayer. In GOG's case this is enforced via GOG Galaxy. Currently no direct IP or LAN play is supported. It has been discussed for the future but no date is scheduled.
We are working on Vulkan API support. Unfortunately Apple has not announced support for this graphics standard, instead promoting their proprietary "Metal" API. This means it is a ways off, if it is ever done.
Your records in "Rankings" cannot be reset at will. When Season 2 begins the Ranked information will be reset automatically. The old data will still be visible under "Season 1" however.

Definitely odd. I suggest uninstalling the game via Steam and re-installing. It sounds like something is having trouble loading.

The only supported way to run DX12 is to launch via Steam.

[quote quoting="post"] If you disable music, cinematics dont play music. I missed the ending because of this... [/quote] A fix for this is planned in a future update.
Not exactly what you are suggesting but if you use CTRL+1 , 2, etc. to create a control group from a bunch of selected units you will see a panel appear on the left of the screen which shows all the units in the control group.
I see you are using the high preset. What resolution are your fullscreen tests at? Borderless Windowed will use the desktop resolution... what's that set to?

[quote who="MuffinCat" reply="4" id="3629152"] Used to be able to alt+tab with no issues at all even in dx12. Now it's a 100% crash guarantee. Borderless window also doesn't work. The game doesn't crash perse, but you can't do anything as your mouse commands won't work. [/quote]Make sure you have the mouse set to "Bind Always" in the options.
[quote who="tatsujb" reply="1" id="3623620"] not too early according to Frogboy. and I agree we should be starting on modding right now. some docs would be nice though as I'm personally really lost. [/quote] Here is the modding guide.
I'm not aware of it but I'll ask around.
There is a known issue with DirectX 12 and ALT+TAB we're hoping Microsoft will fix soon. In the mean time you can run in "borderless window" mode instead of "fullscreen" in the Ashes video options to work around this.

This is the top players across all services.
You must launch the game using Steam and select "DirectX 12" from the menu. If you launch the game EXEs directly it will default to DirectX 11. Benchmarks can be compared here or in-game via the Multiplayer -> Rankings menu options.
Try pressing and releasing the arrow key matching the direction of the scroll. Not sure why it is happening but that is often a workaround for seemingly stuck keys.
There have been reports of this with the 16.3.x versions of the AMD drivers. You may want to try rolling back to an older release. Alternatively you can run in DirectX 11 mode for now, until AMD fixes this.
It appears from this thread: https://forums.ashesofthesingularity.com/476513/page/1/ a similar problem was due to the server updates during maintenance. Is the problem still occurring for you?
[quote quoting="post"] The rank does not display when in ranked and cannot start matchmaking. Reloaded the game a couple of times, same issue. In the last two days I had this error.

Thanks. We're looking at a few similar achievement related issues. Keep posting them if you find any more!

No. Although Steam will allow you to play games in Offline Mode, you are still required to go online periodically to validate your license.
You could also play via a virtual machine using Parallels Desktop or other "virtual machine" software.
Keep in mind that the multiplayer community will expand significantly at release. A sound at match start is on the wishlist of features for post-release. A counter for people in the queue is also on the list. Thanks for the feedback! -Adrian

A few observations: Supply lines exist in the game. If your power generators are not connected to your Nexus you don't collect income from those resources. Turinium generators are fixed points critical to success. You can pin down defenders at these locations or encircle them to cut them off from aid. Engineers are the rear echelon non-combat unit you describe. Killing enemy buildings in the rear can be decisive. I'm curious
