StarCraft 2: LOV

Co-op is amazing.
>>
>>341045437
Does Starcraft need a subscription to play?
>>
Heard of Genesis Rising before?
How about Submarine TITANS?
>>
>>341046710
Nope Genesis Rising is £4.49 on Steam though, if that worth it in your opinion?
>>
>>341046636
It needs an account has online only drm, if that's what you mean. At least at the time of release.
>>
>>341045437
How on earth can you say co op is amazing? Shit gets incredibly repetitive and boring before you can even fully unlock your commander's upgrades.
>>
>>341047109
Wait for a sale. the game's good, but you can get it for less. Unless it's already on sale.
>>
>>341047559
Ye i'll wait gotta love dem steam sales.

I may just download age of empires 2 age of kings again and rinse that. New PC same games!
>>
SC2 does not require a subscription.

some faggots thought that making a 3D game engine for Total Annihilation would be cool

Through the years it spawned a few off-shots like spring 1944 which breaks with the sci-fi setting and puts TA into WWII. Of course there are a few changes to the system but the core is the same.
But there are around 5 iterations of TA made with few differences like units or the ability to raise, lower etc the terrain with your builders and such

for some reason I prefer these over SupCom, my favourite is Zero-K, I recommend that

yeah, there is a downside, it's aimed for multiplayer, so even though sp mode and bots exists, don't expect a detailed campaign
>>
>>341049753
i always get butthurt when i see coh2 down in the
shadow realm, its a fucking good game goddamnit
>>
>>341046636
No, and you don´t even need the game to play co-op, just install the free starter edition.
>>
Europa Universalis 4 is fun if you like to paint/blob/grow your country's borders
>>
>>341045047
If you consider M2TW to be RTS, why not get WARHAMMER?
>>
>>341051960
i think its the dlc
>>
>>341051941
>Zero-K
NICE. Just my type of game.

You can find games most of the time easily, but it's a bit dead sadly.
Also I don't really know how active the others are, but NOTA would worth a try too, it has crazy navy units.

No i'll have a look it's like Age of Empires?

Thank for all suggestions everyone got a few to try out and keep me entertained while i'm off work!
>>
>>341055424
>NOTA
Also will look into it.

>>341055853
Not that anon, but SCII isn't so good. It lacks variety and it's too much rock-paper-scissors. Even vanilla and BW didn't have that much rock-paper-scissors mechanisms.
>>
Total Annihilation: Kingdoms
(most of the game depths comes from bug exploits so expect to be massively crushed on multiplayer and the singleplayer is stupidly boring)
>>
>>341056860
I posted it for memes
>>
>>341057443
Is Total Annihilation like Total War?
>>
>>341056474
Can anyone change it so it says "NIG EDITION" instead of HD i'm terrible at that sort of thing or I would.

It's similar. It is set in the 17th and 18th centuries of Europe and have huge battle.
>>
>>341057443
>Total Annihilation: Kingdoms
This game is so under-appretiated. It's fun to see a fantasy TA.

>>341057807
Nope. First of all the game is not divided into a turn-based and real time gameplay.

Secondly you can amass infinite resources if done rightly. At this point the only way to defeat your enemy is to amass as much varied units as possible and use them smartly.

Also there are real physics and friendly fire in action. Totally not like SC or other RTS games.
>>
>>341045047
If you want a new game, Warhammer Total War.
Its not an rts like starcraft.
But the grand campaign allows you do handle unit recruitment, resource management, and so much more.
While the skirmishes are the real time unit combat.

Ive been playing Medieval 2 Total War for years and think its the best one.

I will never be calm after they lost the source-code for Cataclysm. HD Beast would be scary and awesome.
