To put it bluntly, 970 is "faster". Essentially you can get higher frames on higher settings than 960. if you ask me, 960 seems like a waste and you shouldnt even bother with it.

Because they are focused on making the game a competitive one.

This is why I love RUSE. It strips all of the powergaming bullshit away. There are no hotkeys. There is no microgame. The controls are tight.

But most importantly it is designed so that you have fun and that everything is great to look at. It was made with the intention that you could just take a step back and gander at what was happening. Everything looks cinematic. Battles are dramatic. You give the commands and the game makes it look like a movie.

That's the direction RTSs need to go. Not this MLG every button is binded, every single faction is the exact same and perfectly balanced in every way kind of shit.

>>
>>285869465
As such, not really a lot.
The Germans are OP, as they were in its predecessor, and the allies (especially Americans) fairly lacking lategame.

The campaign is (or was, haven't played it since release) utter garbage. I played through all the missions on hard, and didn't even break a sweat at any point. The AI just never, ever attacked or engaged you by itself.

You could literally just go afk and come back when you had some resources to throw at the mission.

There is one thing that annoys me, which is that they seem to have removed the performance thingy on peoples accounts, so whenever you host a game, there's always some prick that thinks 20 fps and max settings is a-ok, except it pisses everyone else off that the game is slowing down.

Definitely, one of Steam's best kept secrets, developed by a bunch of wargaming nerds who want to appeal to a smaller audience.

Be warned though, it's a casual filter and doesn't play anything like a regular RTS.

RD is the newest one

I have been playing the 2nd Korean War campaign and I dropped a 4 stack of S. Korean marines at the AI's spawn since there were a bunch of cities and supported them with arty/mortars/boats
They just kept sending their own arty/infantry/IFVs/Napalm planes at me over and over again trying to kill me. Was a ton of fun though especially watching them walk their infantry though their own fire and seeing +10 or +20 pop up after they kill themselves

>Biessener pulled back on the map, until the units were tiny dots, and I could see that what appeared to be the war was more accurately just a front within that war. He pointed out that I was looking at the smallest supported map, and even that would take some units 45 minutes to traverse from end to end.

>Managing your troops could be a potential nightmare, and Oxide is taking an approach befitting the game's scale. Players can select groups of units and assign them into what they call meta-units. These effectively function like a single unit in a traditional RTS, even though it's a teeming mass of individual ships working together. For example, if you have tanks and artillery in a meta-unit, the tanks will prioritize protecting their long-range allies.

Red Tide has a geat campaign, focused on few units, felt like the Commandos missions of the original most of the time.

AS for skirmish/MP, and community has moved on to AS2 (pretty much AS1 .5) but with shinier engine and Steamworks.

Viernam and CH only if you really want more missions.
You are better installing the Faces Of War (previous game in the series) mod/mission pack.
