hello facepunch gamers! me and my friends were looking for some new good RTS games and yes know the usual starcraft and warcraft and age of empires and command and conquer games. but we were looking for some new ones to play and test at. now i was looking at dawn of war 2 but does it have base building? so any suggestions?
Yes in dawn of war you build.
Company of Heroes, perhaps?
Get age of mythology. Very good RTS. [editline]02:26PM[/editline] Get all the dawn of war games.
[QUOTE=Suttles;19329227]Get age of mythology. Very good RTS. [editline]02:26PM[/editline] Get all the dawn of war games.[/QUOTE] awsome, thanks! EDIT: oh it doesnt well you lil basterd but thanks below for sayin the truth
DOW2 does NOT have base building.
[QUOTE=BoBt3hBuNnY;19330165]DOW2 does NOT have base building.[/QUOTE] Quoted for truth. And I suggest Company of Heroes. Crazy fun and it's something new in the RTS genre.
Dawn of War 2 has no base-building at all. Only a minor bit in multiplayer games. the first DoW games had base-building but I wouldn't say it was a whole lot. Get Universe at War: Earth Assault and Age of Mythology, as well as the Supreme Commander series, although you'll need a computer built within the last 4 or 5 years to play SupCom very well. E: And Company of Heroes. Very good series, definitely a good set.
I'd say Supreme Commander. Me and my friend had lots of fun in it.
[QUOTE=Suttles;19329227]Get age of mythology. Very good RTS. [editline]02:26PM[/editline] Get all the dawn of war games.[/QUOTE] Age of Mythology is one of my favorite RTS's, get it.
Empire Earth 1. Brilliant game that will last quite a few hours. Start off as a cave man and age to the future! Also Hamachi friendly, just direct connect with IP.
Get motherfucking Evil Genius if you just want base building.
All Command & Conquers (aka. up to Renegade).
[QUOTE=mark6789;19329492]awsome, thanks! EDIT: oh it doesnt well you lil basterd but thanks below for sayin the truth[/QUOTE] Wait you can't build in DOW 2? I have a few and you can build in them.
Supreme commander for epic scale
World in Conflict Check my thread out.
[QUOTE=ishownomercy;19330517]I'd say Supreme Commander. Me and my friend had lots of fun in it.[/QUOTE] This x1000 Love this game, favorite RTS
DARWINIA MULTIWINIA nuff' said. bitch. Whoever dissagree'd has no taste in games and bases all game of graphics. You are retarded. bitch.
TA: Spring Engine with basically ANY of the annihilation mods. I recommend NOTA mod for best base building. [editline]09:17PM[/editline] [url]http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=859205&highlight=spring[/url]
Company of Heroes Has more realism than most RTSs and is extremely fun.
[QUOTE=Suttles;19334548]Wait you can't build in DOW 2? I have a few and you can build in them.[/QUOTE] There is Dawn of War, and it's expansions Winter Assault, Dark Crusade, and Soulstorm, which all have base building. Then there is Dawn of War II which runs on a different engine, and base minimal base building (HQ and stationary guns) Another suggestion for OP is World of Conflict, as said above, you really should check it out. Total Annihilation and it's spinoff, Kingdoms are both fairly good, And the total war series is all pretty good.
World in Conflict needs more love than it gets.
Starcraft, and, when it comes out, Starcraft 2. Also, Diablo 2 is good.
Age of Mythology
I like Sins of a Solar Empire.
[QUOTE=ze spy;19341190]I like Sins of a Solar Empire.[/QUOTE] It's alright. I liked it for about the 5 hours I played it before getting bored.
[QUOTE=Vizx;19329221]Company of Heroes, perhaps?[/QUOTE] CoH, definitely.
I reccomend all relic games I don't get why everyone loves base building so much but if you realy want base building you can skip on dawn of war 2
Populous 3
The Shockwave Mod for CnC Generals Zero Hour. It's basically an entirely new game.
