there's a new rts out, called king of the world, based on the old warcraft 3 risk maps. i bought it and tried for half an hour to get a game going, and saw 0 other players. don't bother

i didn't care for tooth and tail at all. the campaign was way too easy, the gameplay too simple and having every map be procedurally generated is a major turn off. plus the multiplayer was dead

they were actually making a new game like myth. it got stuck in early access though and then development stopped without it ever getting a real release https://store.steampowered.com/app/346930/Deadhold/

cossacks 1 is great but i thought 3 was pretty bad. they hosed up the campaign so every mission is either forever war against opponents with unlimited resources until you manage to grind them down (or rush them instantly) or overtuned missions where you have like 5 guys against 5000 that they made impossible through patches. not exactly enough to it to recommend it over 1 multiplayer wise either

its been like a decade since i played 1 so i'm not 100% on the details but there didn't seem to be much new gameplay wise outside of the new campaigns missions (and several factions being ripped out so they can be dlc)

Soul Reaver posted:Can someone explain the appeal of the C&C series to me? Is it that multiplayer is particularly fun? the incredibly over the top story and fun varied campaign missions really. whether its cultists vs globalists or soviets vs capitalists watching all the over the top cutscenes and pretending i was invading america brought me a lot of joy when i played them as a kid

i've tried every spellforce but i always thought both the rpg and the rts sides were too shallow to really enjoy. both parts consisted mostly of attack moving and throwing a few incredibly powerful hero moves to beat everything

LLSix posted:Anyone have opinions on Stellar Monarch? I haven't played it but the videos I've seen make it look like a budget CK2 in space. i thought it was a bit too shallow to enjoy, not all that much to engage with nor all that much personality to the whole thing which makes it hard to care

Captain Monkey posted:Generals was really, really good about that. We played a number of LANs where I used the sneaky terrorist faction to become a night unkillable thorn in everyone else's side due to my dozen or so invisible bases. i tried doing that but my friends would always ban me from playing them, its hard to be a sneaky rear end in a top hat...

you could capture buildings in Z, from 1996, as well. gameplay revolved around it

does anyone remember the eastern front game where you have to balance obeying your superiors for resources/not ending up in jail at the end of the game?

Battle Realms is great and has a recent remake (i havent played) out. I’d also like to mention Dawn of War 1 and 2 and Battle for Middle earth. Less character driven but still with fun scenarios are the non mythology age of empires games, Company of heroes (basically just saving private ryan), world in conflict and the Men of War series

how is the campaign? i can't imagine the multiplayer lasting all that long considering its a dlc of a not super popular game so i'd have to get my money's worth from that, really enjoyed the mow campaign back in the day

Kazzah posted:They're good but they're hard as balls, especially Barb. Specialists and reinforcements are way more expensive in Barb (justifiably, I guess; they were incredibly cost-effective in the base campaign), and they tend to get more difficult over time, whereas when I play the original campaign I just snowball through the last couple scenarios. do these add anything for the base game, or are the new mechanics i spy on the steam page only available in the dlc?

commando in tophat posted:I've never heard about most of these. How many of them are actually good? I'm disappointed Tzar isn't there a lot of them were fairly standard clones cause the genre was still profitable, but theres some unique stuff in there. Arsenal as an example had a somewhat basic grognard like supply system in it where you needed to keep your units supplied with fuel, and money was made by building apartments. if you destroyed your enemies apartments it was seen as an evil act to do, and the evil nazi-esque leaders would like you more, while the american likes would like you less

have there been any good rts the last year for singleplayer? mostly looking for a good campaign. Tried iron harvest and spellforce and didn't like either (spellforce was too bland and iron harvest doesnt play well at all)
