/rtsg/ Real Time Strategy General

>>180718031
lol rts are dead dude

Like arena shooters, their time has passed.

>>180719457
Starcraft is still top 5 esport. I don't really see anything replacing it.

>tfw fell in love with stukov but now it's just a mastery grind
Should I just pick a new commander already? Stukov only really has one playstyle so I can't just do things differently.

Any tips for Wargame Red Dragon? I just got it and even the easy campaign is kicking my ass

>>180733685
Watch some videos man. Was a bitch getting into. Also read the steam discussions. They have some tips.

Started making a chart I think years ago, started getting input on /v/, what categories to add, and info on rts games I hadn't played.

It's flawed and I haven't added to it recently though.

>>180739229
I'll fix that in the next general.
>>180739346
That's sick man. Cool if I add it to the general?

>>180741048
If you want to, I don't know how useful it is to determine what kind of game you want to play though.

The rts flowchart that is often posted in /v/ rts thread may be better for that.

>those landbridges
I actually got that fanmade remaster of WC2 but didn't play it much. Is WC2 piss easy by modern standards? Seems like you could just macro for 10 minutes and then rush to win with 3-4 controrl groups of ogres/knights

>Try terran after 2 years of playing zerg.
>It still feels like i have some sort of disability with my motor skills after a week of practice.
It's good to know that the skills you learn by playing zerg don't transfer to other rts at all.

>>180746195
>with 3-4 controrl groups of ogres/knights
There were no control groups in original wc2.

The AI in the vanilla campaign is pretty easy, it's a lot better in the expansion.

>>180746832
Original WC2 had control groups for sure

>>180746940
No it did not.

It was added with battle.net edition that came after starcraft

>>180747352
I concede to you friend, and must admit that my misguided claims originate from me only having played the battle.net edition and thus I mistook its features for something that clearly was not in the base game

>>180718031
Thinking of getting cossacks 3. Is it any good?

>>180746528
That's a bummer man
>>180749827
$5.99 for deluxe edition. I'd say go for it man. If you can't afford it hit up my steam and I'll see if i can get you a copy.

There was an old RTSG steam group.

It's rarely used these days. I'm currently the admin of it, but if anyone else wants to role, then thats fine by me.

I've been watching a ton of Starcraft 2 game play recently, but have not actually played it. Thinking of buying it, but don't know which version to buy. Which one should I get?

>pic related

>>180751205
Get the battlechest. Blizzard releases them near the end of a games life and probably won't update the title till the next game in a few years

>>180751205
Battlechest if you intend on playing all the campaigns and plenty of co-op, just WoL or HOTS (depends on which race you prevent, I'm a Zerg player so I liked the HOTS campaign more, though I'm not sure if it can be bought standalone)

What mod / map?

>>180754864
