It certainly doesn't look very official.

Oh, I think whoever made that knows. They know too well.

Never heard of it, or played it.

 

Do you play RTS games at all? If the answer is yes, you die now. If the answer is no, then you get to live.

Actually is it even possible to NOT know about C&C franchise with it being one of the best known ones out there?

How can it be a no ob build. It has PROVEN effective. I dare you to show your builds and I will tear you apart in an arugment about how these builds will won them.

Thanks to this forum, I'm aware it exists. I've never played it either, though - not really into RTS games, though Starcraft was okay and I like Warcraft 2 I think it was.

Depends on what you mean by "know about". If "heard of" qualifies, then yes. If not, then I join the club of those who never touched any of them. I've hated rts games as a rule of thumb ever since Dune 2 :lol:

Kucan also directed cut scenes in The Legend of Kyrandia games.

I think there's a couple heretics in this thread we should purge.

I have also never touched a C&C game. I played around with the early Warcrafts a bit (was given the WC1&2 combo pack), but they got deathly boring once I figured out how the games basically functioned (i.e., screw tactics, just keep building until you've got more than the other guy, then rush him). Since then, the closest I've gotten to an RTS is the Total War games.

Then you should try out a few of the better RTSs to see what has happened in the genre. Namely, Battle Realms, World in Conflict, Ground Control 2, Dawn of War and also Hostile Waters and Sacrifice(though those are cross genre games).

 

I understand how the RTS genre can appear unappealing to a an actual strategy gamer, but those are all solid titles, perhaps best of the genre. And perhaps most importantly, they showcase how far(or short, depending on your viewpoint) the genre has come from the Warcraft roots.

 

Heh, I remember Red Alert well and I don't think I could ever play it again. There was this one time back in middle school when I was asked to play a LAN game against three other guys and all they kept doing was making the same tank in droves, everyone just sat at their bases and made around 50+ medium or mammoth tanks and then let them roll against each other. I...well, I destroyed two bridges that led to the island on the map my base was on and then proceeded to build aircraft and ships and bomb everyone from my inaccessible island. I didn't win, but that game was kind of a turning point in my gaming life. Next LAN game was Starcraft and I was faced against two armies whose troops consisted of only Dragoons and Mutalisks, respectively. It was one big sigh. I hope I'll never will get giddy over just amassing tanks.

Company of heroes? Why didn't you mention Company of Heroes?

 

World in Conflict is only really good if you can play co-op with and against friends.

Not if we're talking basic functionality and games that are out (I've plenty of love for DoW2).

Disagree, it has best RTS gameplay mechanics (with actually giving importance to moral, cover etc.) and great factions to play with

 

That is unless latest expansion pack screwed it

CoH has that and more, I'm not sure where you're coming from. CoH is literally an incremental improvement across the board (gameplay mechanics wise, WW2 can go screw itself).

 

CoH has an improved cover system that is actually somewhat realistic in the context of the enviroment and not just patches of cover.

 

I guess you could argue that it was wrong to move from the naive morale system of DoW to the more complex system of being pinned down that CoH has, I just find it a very weird thing to say.

 

I agree that the factions in 40k are better but that's not really an argument as I was talking about base mechanics.

I haven't played CoH but doesn't you command small task force in it against enemies instead of your typical RTS gameplay? :x
