RTS- What are people playing?

C&C3.. uses a modified bfme engine. People still play warcraft 3..

SAGE engine, don't know what blizz calls the WC3 engine.

:?

Well have to say, that BFME2 has not been boring for me yet. Its the quality of the players. Game itself is fun, but the fact that the best AI (brutal comps) does not compare to playing a a decent person.
C&C3 has good reviews.
Played Warcraft 3, but the size of the maps and the fact that I didnt know what spyware was till for a year after I started playing PC games, led me to playing Age of Wonders vs the computer. ( had over a 100 spyware when someone told me about anti-spyware software and couldnt load Gamespy because Kazaa had sent me more megabytes of spyware than all our software added up. yada yada yada) Did not play Warcraft 3 online.
:x

warhammer dawn of war is very good, with the 2 expansions it has 7 races. its like company of heroes in some ways, dunno which is a better game but both are real good.

Anyway, RTS????

I think its a good classic wargame style with a healthy mix of quick thinking. MMO games need all your attention to complete the best missions/quests. But playing online is why I read the articles on why the C2D or K10 splices my widgets better. Playing with other people is like having a phone with orcs elves spaceships and robots in the background.

Buying Supreme Commander and maybe Spellforce 2. Made the choice based on that the game length is less frantic than dawn of war and C&C 3.

don't buy alot of RTS games. i usually stick with one for ages. when i was younger i played red alert 2, then a few years later i bought C7C generals and now i have CoH's. that is a good game. i ain't the best though and it is very difficult, but at least there arent a million different units to choose from unlike earth2160 and all that other stuff, very simple game that relies on tactics more than anything.

still, i did get warhammer, dawn of war with it so i might give that a whirl. still, CoH is all i need from an RTS at the moment.

I play Medieval 2 its nice, and lately because of teh lack of time i play only multiplayer, since its more enjoyable for me, but CoH is a sweet game, i got bored of it and stoppped playing it for about 3 months, and now couple days ago i went back to playing it, and its as fun as teh first day i played it

you might want to try maby paraworld since it costs i think 7 or 9 bucks, its nothing special but a relatively nice time killer especially when fresh to the game, and it looks relatively nice and colorful,

I played the supreme commander demo, and stoppped playing it, i guess that sums it up...got bored of it in less than a week

cc3 -nothing special, prefared bfme2

but lately i only play just medeival 2 and bf2, btw there will be a nice expansion comming out to medieval 2 (called kingdoms) it will be much beter than the m2, since many new game additions wil be in it(except new units and such) additions of moats around the castles, and a multiplayer hotseat and such

Hi, check out the main site www.totalwar.com and lok for the kingdoms expansion, there will be an addition of 150 new units 13 new factions(if im not mistaken) and 3 or 4 new campaigns, and a new multiplayer mode, hotseat, g2g ...hope this helped a bit
