Any games as polished as StarCraft II but with a focus on defense and base building as oppose to rushing and offense?
One that has walls, sentries etc...
Red Alert 2 was pretty great with that, but 3 online is dead.

Supreme Commander is good.

but sc2 does have base defenses

I've heard good things about >>319860892

Unfortunately seeing as almost all RTS developers focus on the competitive aspect. There's not much out there for us turtlers.

There is no new games because every new strategy games attempts to mimic Starcraft 2 in that aspect so it's all about rushing and making deathballs. There is no strategy in strategy games anymore, it's all about amassing a bigger deathball then your opponent and simply winning.

I don't play Starcraft, I just watch whenever Totalbisuit has a league. And that's all it ends up doing. DEATHBALL DEATHBALL or a rushed "cheese".

SupCom. IMO the best RTS ever made, and yes it does allow different play styles.

Original SC is shitty and focused on turtlers shooting up the tech path. SC FA is god tier status, but is more about territory control for your dosh.

>>319862326
the fuck? Every new rts is another Real Time Tactics game like CoH, DoW, Men of War, WiC. Noone makes Dune/C&C type games anymore for a while now.

>>319860787
no games on pc are as polished as blizzard games and never will be
>>
You can play Planetary Annihilation that way....

Blizzard games are not really that polished.
At least not anymore since about starcraft broodwar´s time.
Warcraft 3 was as unpolished as a freshly fallen turd. Reused models with extremely cheap reskins that clip and jag, etc.

>Red Alert 2
>not focusing on rushes and deathballs
Maybe if you played against complete shitters. RA2 and Starcraft 2 were designed by the same man by the way - Dustin Browder.

Can you really call a Tier 1 tank spam a deathball?
