Dagobahn Eagle Posted March 29, 2005 Posted March 29, 2005 Empires, Ground Control (OK, so that's a tactical game, not a strategy game, but oh well), Empire Earth, and Age of Empires 2. Not necessarily in that order. The C&C series is good if you like that kind of... game, but I like more serious titles. The cliches and stereotypes of the C&C series get too childish at times:cool: , and I didn't like any other C&C game than Generals anyway... BFME is not a bad game, in my opinion, but it's wa-a-a-y too simplistic and shallow for my liking. I prefer deep, involving titles. Homeworld and Warlords are OK, but again, I like deeper games, so they're not my thing. Warcraft III definetly has the world's best unit and building editor, and it's not a bad game either... But again, it's just not my type of game. Galactic Battlegrounds was neat too.
THE VIGILANTE Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Age of Emipires: 1&2 (great games) Age of Mythology (not as much as Age of Empires) LotR BfME (I like the fact that everything showed emotions)
Cpt. Bannon Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 The moon project/Lost souls (the same game, different campaign) Something about that game I just can't get over. Maybe it has something to do with unlimited # of units controlled at once, or a ton of customizability with the units and buildings. Only thing missing from this game was a scripting tool with the map editor.
THE VIGILANTE Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 ^^^^ My friend was complaining about the same thing. He eventually downloaded it from a mod from some website.
Emperor Devon Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 At the moment, Ground Control II. Empire at War will probably be much better, though.
Tokarev Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 I don't seem to have a particular order here... 1. C&C series (until RA2, Tiberian Sun was ok) 2. Age of Empires series 3. Star Craft 4. War Craft 3 Wraith 8 said: generals??? c&c generals SUCKED! A matter of opinion I suppose, but I would have to agree that it did... It was rushed.
Sabretooth Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 Revan Solo said: I cannot understand that nobody shouted Anno 1602! It was so great and it was my first PC game. Yeah, Anno 1602 was a great game. I never found it around though, it wasn't a "big" game. There was also another cool game called Moonbase Commander. It was very addictive. You have to command an AI taking over Moon. Various buildings are connected by glowing lines and you have to aim and shoot packs to deploy buildings. The whole game was like a mixture of puzzle and RTS (it was actually turn-based, come to think of it).
Jan Gaarni Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 I don't really play them anymore, but I had the most fun (and hours put into them) with these: 1. StarCraft (never got around to getting Brood Wars though) 2. Early C&C games (C&C, Red Alert) 3. Total Annihilation 4. WarCraft 3 (plus WFT) 5. Ground Control
Dark Sad Shadow Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Force Commander OF COURSE!!! Star craft Brood wars AoMythology AoE II Conqueror Warcraft III the Frozen Throne too bad rebellion was so... lame
lukeiamyourdad Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Wait...your name seems so familiar...I've seen you somewhere...
RedHawke Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 For me it will always be Total Annihilation... *Gets ready to dodge tomatoes!*

StealthWar42 Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 Rome: Total War, particularly for the campaign mode and the fact that hitpoints aren't really involved. And the morale factor. Oh, and no resource gathering, just econ

Guybrush17 Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 My favorite RTS is Age of Empires II: Age of Kings. I consider the AoE series the founding of RTS games anyway. Other good RTS are Warcraft II, Starcraft, and Battle for Middle-Earth is fun.

Guest DarthMaulUK Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 Dune 2 on the amiga was a true masterpiece and the first real RTS ever. It had it all. And I believe some of the guys behind that, are working on EaW...because Westwood were responsible for it, before EA swallowed them up DMUK
Sithmaster_821 Posted September 12, 2005 Posted September 12, 2005 AoK:TC most definitely. It is insanely fun, deceptively deep, and brilliantly made. It may not have come out as early as Dune 2 or have the widespread adulation of StarCraft, but it is the template on which all RTS's are based and the game against which they are judged (outside of the Total War Series and its spawn). SWGB comes in second, for obvious reasons.
popcorn2008 Posted September 12, 2005 Posted September 12, 2005 I liked any C&C game, age of empires 2, rebellion (if it counts). I loved red alert 1 it was the first rts i ever played and i still love it to this day.
