Is RTS the most /m/ genre of games?
Remember when Titanfall was still a thing?
>>14261573
Not in the slightest
>>14261573
Holy shit what a boring faggot
>>14261573
>Is RTS the most /m/ genre of games?
Nigga, try playing a few STGs sometime. Ya dirty casual!
considering how little RTS games there are with mecha no.
>>14261573
NICE GAME LOSER DO THEY MAKE ONE FOR MECHA FANS?
>>14261573
With >>14261740 existing, the genre sure has the most /m/ game ever made in its collection.
But RTS games all around, while certainly often employing some mechs in their sci-fi settings, are not much of an /m/ genre I'm afraid.
>>14261573
Titanfall wasn't an RTS, why are you using it as an example
Are there two games named Titanfall or something?
There's also the granddaddy of all RTS games.
Is there a /m/ shooter without a stupid lock on system?
>>14262059
That doesn't look much like Herzog Zwei does it
>>14262059
Airmech is still a thing? I played that for a little bit and it was pretty fun.
>>14262070
The PC ones are non-lockon.
Heavy Gear 1/2, Mechwarrior games, Earthsiege 1/2, Shogo, Project M.A.V,...
>>14262107
True, but the game is still pretty much a modern remake of it.
Quake 3 with gundam mods is the most /m/ game ever
>>14261573
Are there even any /m/ games left nowadays?
Not counting Japan-only titles, but games that you can actually get a hold of play and enjoy without shipping across the entire globe and paying for VPNs to play 200 ping using optical internet.
>>14262296
Yes. But most of them are indies or still in "alpha" stage.
Stuff like Project Nimbus, astebreed , gigantic army, orbital gear.
>>14262345
I knew of Project Nimbus, been holding that one off until it gets finished because Early Access screws the game experience to hell and back for me.
Didn't know of the other ones (only keeping tabs on said Nimbus, M.A.V. and Heavy Gear Assault), though, so thanks.
>>14261573
No.
>>14262345
I hope the Harebrained Battletech game is good.
>>14262479
There's a 40k Titan game in development too. Seems like we might be in a curiously fertile period for mecha games based off tabletop mecha.
>>14262484
The titan legion games were just shoddy Battletech rip-offs, though.
And let's be fair, a licensed Wh40k game is usually a pretty bad cash grab nowadays.
Only Focus Home really cares and I don't think that game is done by them.
>>14262523
>dat pic
I don't understand how the titan is actually still standing and not tumbling over with all that castle in their back.
>B-but anti gravitation field
At that point, why dont just build them as hovering fortress?
Does /m/ like Total Annihilation?
>>14263099
"Blessed is the mind too small for doubt."Or at least, that's what they would reply with I suppose.
>>14263151
I don't think so. The krogoth was posted but got no reaction. TA was fucking great though, Long range heavy artillery is badly neglected in most rts.
>>14263099
Imperator Titans are very very silly. More so than other titans. This is coming from someone who genuinely loves Epic Armageddon and holds it to be the best game GW ever murdered.
And there's some STIFF competition in that catagory, believe me.
>>14263099
They kinda went "a giant titan with cathedrals and shit sounds cool", and put back the thinking how it'd actually work realistically to around never.
>>14267512
Thing is, 40k channels 2000AD hard, and "Walking Space Cathederal Battle Robot" is 2000AD as fuck. That said, Imperator Titans don't get mentioned all that much these days, mostly because of how goofy they are.
That said, we've had GW remember Knights and bring back the old design of the Warlord Titan for 40k so we might yet see a redesign of the Imperator make an appearance if the rumours of that 8mm Epic game are true.
>>14262107
Herzog Zwei was the first MOBA.
I enjoyed Titanfall. It had some issues, there is no denying that, but I found it fun for a long time. To be fair I bought it later not at full price and often if not always played with friends.
Favorite /m/ game would have to be Front Mission 3 though. I really wish we could get some decent Front Mission ports or reboots.
>>14270338
You didn't like FM4?
I liked how missiles were fired in salvos and traveled in an arc. They could also be blocked by terrain. As fun as FM3 missiles were - Turning on a dime! Macross Zero style!
The MC was cute too.
>>14270453
No I never did play it. I didn't have a PS2 at the time it came out and you know time goes on. I've been meaning to finish off the series with emulation but just never get around to it.
>>14263151
>>14266779
I love it to bits. It's everything I want in every RTS and I never ever get it- but that's why I bought it again when Steam released it.I also have SupCom but the power of nostalgia and solid gameplay keeps me coming back to TA
>>14267468
You called?
>>14267549
Last time somebody tried to redesign Emperor Titan, we got this.
It's pretty much Lucius pattern Warlord on steroids, but at least something.
>>14275598
We could squeeze at least 2 more turrets in there! Are you people even trying!
>>rts most /m/ of games
>>not fucking space simulator
>>14277571
Well fuck my shit up enginseeya'
>>14277581
They have their time. But space sims are usually more about ships than mecha. And ship threads tend to stay on art oriented. Maybe try a sim thread in a week or two when all the recent burst of video game threads dies down. You have the power, anon.
Strategy games in general do have a high degree of /m/ content. If the game has 3 factions one of them is bound to land a mech or two. Unless it's Submarine Titans or something (not that there is anything wrong with ST).
Equally prominent are STG if you count enemies and bosses. Even ones that do not seem like /m/ material at first - Strikers 1945 begin a good example. Not to mention pure /m/ porn like Leynoss.
