Lord JayVizIon Posted September 26, 2001 Posted September 26, 2001 Tell me what is the best RTS game you've ever played.... this is a hard one, but i voted starcraft:D Btw, this poll is only up for 5 days...
EndSub Posted September 26, 2001 Posted September 26, 2001 the gretest RTS game ever made was Dune 2 (the origanal.....not 2k......) proberly second comes AoE then Starcraft......but for 1992 dune 2 is the GREATEST RTS game EVER....i still play it today
Darth_Rommel Posted September 26, 2001 Posted September 26, 2001 AOK, but thats just b/c it's the only RTS I own!
Guest Kvan Posted September 26, 2001 Posted September 26, 2001 Well can I have a three way tie? SC just is fun. A balanced (kinds) well thought out game. Homeworld is a unique, 3d space RTS, that imo had great controls for the type of game it is. Shogun, I only played the Demo version but it rocked! I love marching my japanese army into battle! Just the clanging of the swords and the fleeing of the enemy as I kill every last one of them is enough to play that game! Hmmm....I might actually go out and buy the whole game now
Darth_Rommel Posted September 26, 2001 Posted September 26, 2001 Have you ever played AOK before, Kvan? Are you gonna buy GB?

Guest Lord Tirion Posted September 26, 2001 Posted September 26, 2001 I voted for the Age of Empire series. The only HUGE draw back are all the jerks that are on the zone who act like they have the hugest ego and are 10 years old and dont know what a game is about. I remember when the zone use to be a really fun place. But now, nobody really wants to go there anymore but the little kiddies. I hope SWGB can bring back the fun like the zone use to be when aoe first came out. All we have now are sysops who dont do squat, people who flood the damn chat area and little kids acting like they own the world. Someday this world will grow up =)
Guest Kvan Posted September 26, 2001 Posted September 26, 2001 Hmmm...it sounds like you have trouble finding people to play with. Just ask people on the boards to play. They won't bad mouth you...too much
darthfergie Posted September 26, 2001 Posted September 26, 2001 AoK/TC...but RA2 is still AWESOME!!!!
Guest DarkTrooper Posted September 27, 2001 Posted September 27, 2001 Another prob it the zone is the lag but ur right those little kids freakin piss me off
Guest Gamma732 Posted September 27, 2001 Posted September 27, 2001 Judging from my avatar, which do you think I voted for? Anyway, SC's one of my all time favorite games. Its one of the most balanced RTS's I've ever played. Its the most diverse RTS I've ever played. And most of all, its online Battle.net service is the best multiplayer service I've used. It was (relatively) fast, and easy to find a game with someone of similar skill to me, because of the records. I'll agree with you guys about the zone going downhill of late, however, I haven't encountered many kids lately. My AOK games on the zone were usually very short. Either I'd destroy my opponent in minutes or vice versa. They need some form of a record keeping system.
Guest Tie Guy Posted September 27, 2001 Posted September 27, 2001 RA2 and the entire C&C series are the mothers of all modern rts's. If it wasn't for C&C then most of the games on the list wouldn't be there. Anyways, i never playd on the zone much, a little jk and a little XWA is all i've ever done.
Lord JayVizIon Posted September 27, 2001 Author Posted September 27, 2001 well actually, dune was the mother of all common rts games. if i'm not mistaken, it preceded warcraft II and C&C. but you're rite gamma, so far SC is the most innovative RTS game i've ever played. i'm still waiting for my copy of RA2, and of course, swgb....
Guest Snowtroopa Posted September 27, 2001 Posted September 27, 2001 what does AoK stand for? I was just wondering..heh.

Ah, but what i meant by that was not it came first, but that it totally revolutionized the genrre into what it is today.
EndSub Posted September 28, 2001 Posted September 28, 2001 Dune 2 did revolutionized the RTS genere into what it is today.....that game oWneZ.......if you havent played it you really should see if you can grab a copy *coughabandonwarecough*
Lord JayVizIon Posted September 28, 2001 Author Posted September 28, 2001 yeah, that's what i meant. dune 2 was the basis for what most common rts games follow. units, resource management, interface to some degree, etc. it really is the mother of the contemporary rts genre...
Dagobahn Eagle Posted September 28, 2001 Posted September 28, 2001 Ground Control and Age of Kings: The Conquerors expansion pack. I was going to vote AoK, but Ground Control outrocked it. I picked others. Dagobahn Eagle
