>>955617 If they would just add ZK-style unit AI and fix the UI this would be literally the perfect RTS game. Sadly, the devs are retards who actually believe the "ZK is a game that plays itself" memes. Oh well, maybe it'll inspire the equally-retarded-but-in-a-different-way ZK team to finally upgrade their fucking graphics a bit.

Are any of you enjoying Dawn of the Tiberium Age? They released a new campaign a couple of days ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Onofd_4rf74 . Apparently, there are 30 missions, with branching paths. I haven't played RTS games in a while, I've only made it to the third mission thus far.

>>996913 Looks like a grand time!

So Stormgate turned out to be a trashfire. Lots of people are disappointed by the looks of it. >>996913 Never heard of that mod, but I will have to give it a go. I like the idea of branching missions, as it gives me a reason to replay shit. I feel like you don't see that often in an RTS.

>>996924 Yeah I saw, what a shame.

>>996924 They shouldn't have released it into early access in that state.

>>996924 I've seen the first three missions of the campaign from some youtuber, I think it was Grant. Looks like a rehash of WC3 human campaign, but worse and not polished.

>>996924 >Starcraft F2P clone >It sucks >Starcraft fags go back to playing Starcraft Totally unexpected!

>>996968 What are those white lines? Is that a mod?

>>996983 Rally Lines. This is a mod.

>>996968 Will be honest, my unit control leaves much to be desired.

>>996983 This is a mod called Cosmonarchy. I tried installing it, but the launcher crashed my computer. From what Ive seen, it is Starcraft, but larger scale. You can find it here: http://fraudsclub.com/cosmonarchy/ . I might try installing it again.

>>996990 better off downloading the mod off the github if the launcher's fucky. issue then becomes keeping track of updates.

>>996924 They left Blizztard but brought and spread the infection.

Bumpin to say that AoM:Retold is out. Some thoughts. >God powers can now be recast per race at stacking cosbot linkaning the first one is free, then 12 > 25 > 41 in terms of favor cost. >Myth units now have some vocals, Nemean Lion and Cyclops for instance. >Hippolyta has a greek sounding voice that's very pleasant. <That modern UI is fucking atrocious. Even after half a dozen maps I'm still confused as to what some of the buttons do. Why is there a giant Age up symbol in the middle of the screen? <The voice acting is 10 shades of awful. Once again Forgotten Empires has chosen Authenticity over Actual acting experience. These are the types of people who'll cast a greek in a greek role, not someone who can do a good performance. Kastor sounds like a winey kid, Ajax isn't manly and Arkantos sounds tired. <Why is there an automated economy function for the game? Is this an AoE 4 thing? It really shouldn't be here. <The way units engage in combat is very AoE 4. They'll blob together and surge forth. <The Major gods don't feel unique anymore. Zeus > Hades > Posiden were Infantry and 200 God power > Archers and a good economy > Horses and strong myth units. Since favor isn't capped anymore, the only difference between Hades and Zeus is what minor gods you have access to and if you want Myrmidons and Gastraphetes. <Minor changes to races. Atlantians now generate favor through Oracles instead of TC, which is as bad as it sounds. <No blood and skeletons because China. <Bugs and glitches all over the place. Technically functional but I had the UI flash multiple times. Verdict, same with AoE 3. I'll play the original with the expanded mod. I do not like this one. That UI especially.

>>1006814 >stacking cosbot linkaning Stacking cost with the first one free then increasing favor costs.

>>1006814 >That UI especially Modern devs really love that kind of UI for whatever reason. I miss the older stylized approaches they used to do. Especially when it changed depending on the faction you played. I always thought that was a nice touch.

>>1006978 It's not an RTS but I'll always bring up how Oblivion's UI, despite not being very good to actually use, was artistically brilliant. Compare it to the later TES games which look absolutely soulless, and it's particularly better in a functional sense either.

>>1006984 How is that oblivion screenshot in 5:4?

>>1006984 >artistically brilliant Are you insulting me? Oblivon single handedly ruined the TES series! The reason why we stuck with shit like Skyrim! Mother fucking Xbox UI, for motherfucking braindead consol niggers! Get the fuck out here!

>>1007034 Morrowind is great, but what we're not going to do is pretend its UI wasn't a fucking mess.

Is there a way to put a have a functional Red Alert 2 install on a USB stick? I've tried looking around, but even rutracker only has viruses instead of anything useful.

How did they fuck up Men of War 2 so badly? I've heard they've made some improvements and fixes recently but I still don't see any reason to play it over Assault Squad 2 or Gates of Hell Ostfront. >>1007114 It looks fun, since it's on sale I may give it a try soon.

>>1044791 You can check whatever the portableapps.com guys do to apps and probably buy it on gog.

>>1044791 >>1044979 After some fiddling, this worked well enough instead: https://archive.org/details/red-alert-2_202103

>>1044911 (checked) >I still don't see any reason to play it over Assault Squad 2 or Gates of Hell Ostfront Yeah that was my take on it too. They released it too early both in terms of bugs and features/polish. I also didn't like the direction they took with some things/balance (and the retard pathing), then add in that the always online bit pissed me off (even if they did add an offline mode later). I hope they improve it more to make it worth checking out, but I'm not getting my hopes up. On another more positive note, the next big DLC for GoH is going to be the British so I'm looking forward to that. I hope it ends up being comparable to the USA DLC which added a good amount of content. >How did they fuck up Men of War 2 The devs who made this were the devs of the first Men of War game. Digitalmindsoft were the devs who made Assault Squad 2 that everyone played the hell out of. I'm not shocked it ended up being not what players expected.

>>869510 I am still waiting for D.O.R.F. They are really taking their time polishing it, hopefully.

Recommend me an rts? >aoe4 is the last rts I played and it's fun and made me better at the genre >total war three kingdoms felt like hoard bashing on launch >company of heroes 1/2 was annoying because tanks took a high proportion of effort to micro, but was also half a decade ago so maybe I'm better now My only problem is older games have a ui that make me clock out, like total war rome's.

Maybe dawn of war and warcraft 3, from skimming this thread.

>>1050649 Beyond All Reason. Free to play, amazing community. I have sent the mad lads videos of my previous fuck ups, and they were willing to set through them and actually tell me how to git gud.

>>1050649 It might help if you list what kind you are looking for. More micro/RTT or more macro focused games? >My only problem is older games have a ui that make me clock out, like total war rome's I never really had that problem. I used to really love anything to do with Rome for a while though so I guess that helps. >total war three kingdoms Shogun 2 was the last good Total War. Everything after it had a noticeable decline in one way or another. >>1049256 I really like the graphics in this game. Hopefully it ends up fun. >>1050713 >Beyond All Reason. Free to play, amazing community. I have sent the mad lads videos of my previous fuck ups, and they were willing to set through them and actually tell me how to git gud I remember they had a coaching thing somewhere for helping new players when I played it. Pretty cool of them. Sadly, my Supcom addiction usually wins out over it so I end up dealing with pissed off russians shouting in broken english all game instead.

>>1050823 I don't really know how much micro I want, I don't like how much starcraft 2 skews towards it but I also heard games without much of it are a bit boring. But if you mean macro like hearts of iron or the logistics layer in total war games, I'm completely uninterested in that for this case. >>1050713 Looks nice, tomorrow maybe.

>>1050649 >>1050835 World in Conflict Then try out Ground Control 1 and 2
