Guest Kvan Posted August 3, 2001 Share Posted August 3, 2001 Originally posted by Lord JayVizIon what is your most favorite rts game to date? and why? I've always liked Homeworld. I don't really know why I like it though.....maybe because it in space and has a 3d map... I probably would have picked AoE but I never got to play it all that much. Does anyone know if the new Dune game is any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 3, 2001 Author Share Posted August 3, 2001 cool kvan. i hear you on homeworld, great game but i don't play it much b/c some of those missions are tough! however, my favorite rts game is starcraft, just b/c of battle.net battles and 1vs1 with buddies. i also though the original warcraft II as well as warwind II were good....... with the looks of swgb, i think it could be my favorite......

StarCraft is one of the best games EVER made.....I just got tired of playing over, and over, and over again. Whats Warwind II? It's sad that blizzard is holding back WCIII again:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compa_Mighty Posted August 3, 2001 Share Posted August 3, 2001 The Conquerors, well, that is AoK. I wish the patch was better *sighs* BTW, I think all of you have noticed I have traumatic issues about the green snow. Well I'm not that bad, but I simply don't like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 3, 2001 Author Share Posted August 3, 2001 warwind II had two human races and two UGLY looking alien groups. that game was cool b/c it had fences that were electric and would make a siren like sound when intruders entered. it was a solid game, but not as good as starcraft warcraft III won't be out til sometime next year.

Compa_Mighty Posted August 3, 2001 Share Posted August 3, 2001 Come on Kvan, that's not good, if it's snow, it should be white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Igonmondrian Posted August 3, 2001 Share Posted August 3, 2001 THE ICE WAS WHITE!!!!!!! BTW: My fav RTS games: 1: Age of Kings (patch was great, but original music was better) 2: Alpha Centauri (although it is 1/2 Turn Based, 1/2 RTS) 3: Gotta love SimCity3000. 4: STARSIEGE! (It's sort of RTS) 5: Homeworld 6: StarCraft 7: Command and Conquer series. (favs were Red Alert, and Teberian Sun) Personally I think Galactic Battlegrounds will blow AOK away. I have been hoping for a great SciFi RTS, but I have been hopeing even more for a StarWars RTS!!! When I looked for an Aliens vs. Predator upgrade and saw an ad for Gallactic Battlegrounds, I immediatle started finding more info. Great Stuff. SWGB will be great, for it appeals to a scifi audience along with StarWars people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 3, 2001 Author Share Posted August 3, 2001 yeah, you can get tired of the ancient weaponry used in the game sometimes. with sci-fi weapons, you know more units are going to have long range capabilities which makes this game more strategic than not.........

Guest Superdog Posted August 3, 2001 Share Posted August 3, 2001 About the Only two I own are StarCraft and Brood War, (actually my brother owns them), so I'll go with that. GB looks to be an ass-kicker, though. Maybe not groundbreking, or an instant classic, but deifinetly a decent StarWars RTS for a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kvan Posted August 3, 2001 Share Posted August 3, 2001 Originally posted by Compa_Mighty Come on Kvan, that's not good, if it's snow, it should be white. Did they want to make it green or did they screw up the patch? So does this mean I all I have to say is "The snow....is green" and it will throw you into a rage? Have I found your weakness?

Guest Igonmondrian Posted August 3, 2001 Share Posted August 3, 2001 Which wha what? I think that you must have a differnet patch! Yes, all open ground is green, except for dirt and coasts. ICE is white. The kind of ice that covers WATER. When you go into the scenario and try to put snow on water, you get ICE. ICE is crossable, and impassable by ships.
