RTS GENERAL

The last one disappeared. ==RTS GENERAL==

Have this picture.

This list is incredibly questionable in every single way.

RTS is dead and Blizzard killed it. Command and Conquer was never really that great tbh.

Its not a list its a autistic poorly made flowchart.

Bequeath us your better flowchart then, dear user

What does AoE 2 HD add to the original other than new graphics?

online community without the need of setting all the userpatches for voobly and new expansions, and mod support

are you still spouting this stupid fucking meme?
blizzard did their own thing
ea actually killed several good rts studios

StarCraft 2 killed RTS. Those shit studios EA killed where because the developers where old and lazy niggers. Just because a programmer was the top shit back in the 1980's doesn't mean they know jack shit about making a top tier AAA big budget game in current year. The unfortunate side effect is their game design sensibilities where also lost. The guys who made Westwood "great" now make cellphone games. If you doubt this option just look at Inxile, or Runic Games or any other Has-bin with a kikestarter.

so this whole meme is just the rantings of an ea shill

If the old devs were useless then you would expect them being fired to result in a better game, not the garbage that ends up being pretty much every single sequel that has been made under EA. I guess it's just a coincidence.

C&C3 was fun, though. At least we got Tricia Helfer in a leather bodysuit, and Jennifer Morrison being cute for the GDI commander. And Gemma Atkinson in Red Alert 3.

And JK Simmons playing the US president who did nothing wrong in RA3.

CnC 3 was neat and having active abilities along with the possibility to upgrade units was a nice change but for some reason the gameplay doesn't feel as intense. Red Alert 3 on the other hand was garbage waifubait.

Tiberian Sun was in development for seven years before EA bought them out and forced it out the door. Westwood was dead either way.

the only real problems i had with red alert 3 were how powerful some of the "general abilities" could be and how ore fields were reduced to warcraft gold mines, which i guess you could say was another page taken from generals but it didnt feel right

watching the harvester move 2 meters or so from the refinery to the mineshaft looked really, really dumb.

Why not just cut out the middle man and harvest the ore directly with the refinery?

It's my favorite Genre of games.

But I'm maximum normalfag and none of my friends except one plays this stuff.

Thinking of getting Stronghold 2 in the summer sale so I can mess about on my own.

The RA3 single player sure was some cringe shit because of all the literal porn star female actors, but the gameplay was still solid. The music was bretty gud as well, it wasn't Frank Klepacki tier RA2 good but leagues better than anything that came out since.

I was even moderately hype for Generals 2, despite knowing better than to trust EA. fucking Dungeon Keeper mobile still hurts every day;_;

at that point i half agree, but it gives you a crucial unit to harass or protect, and the aspect of rebuilding it if it dies, and repairing it isnt as convinient as repairing a building.
harassing the enemies resources and workers is very ingrained in to rts

Could always make it so you needed some engineers operating/maintaining it or it'd break/slow down. Of course that's making it even more warcraft (undead and night elf mines worked like that).

Or maybe the harvester IS the refinery, and it goes digging around until it finds a lode and deploys once it finds one.

How is Empire Earth and its sequels, and how are the other Stronghold games.

**did anybody play the halo wars 2 beta
]I thought it was alright but i'm mainly a turn based strategy guy and i'm already a mindless halodrone so i'd like to hear what actual RTS fans thought of it**

faggot

Stronghold might as well be a city builder with how cosy it is.

Game in 15

15 hours, that is.

Good work, soldier.

And yet Westwood made RA2 after TS, using technology from TS and it turned out to be one of the better RTSes ever made.

You are full of shit.

Dam you yanks. I can't wait that long. any europoors or bongs up for a game?
