Please select one, sorry I know you're confused because simply blobbing and mass spawning units doesn't teach you to read but I'm sure if you apply yourself you'll come to understand in time.

You said dawn of war, which is not an rtt in the first game. C&C has always been an rts. You're retarded, in short.

>>344809139

But we got a horribly made and sloppily put together chinese expansion, isn't that enough?

so greeks
and dont forget assyrians+sumerians
lamassu units would be cool as fuck

Man that game was some comfy shit - I'd just make giant sprawling metropolises as Isis; vast, rolling farmland for the labourers under the protection of the citadel walls, the migdol strongholds anf their benevolent god

Man, it was comfy

Age of Mythology is an awful RTS. Its fantastic if you like basic references to Mythological things but tactics wise its incredibly boring. Early game is a rush straight to the 2nd era where you can actually get units, then you either commit to rushing an army and trying to knock out enemies early game, or play defensively until you can rush your titan. Once your titan is up you wipe one or two players then it goes down, at which point you unit spam with your myth units and have an defense of counter-myth units. No resource scaling for spamming units as well so fucking gold collsi every at the end. Not to mention that end game is easily possible to peter out of resources.

It doesnt do any of the nations it features justice either, only using creatures that are common known. Its more of a showcase of "look I have this cool Egyptian sphinx" than a game that actually embraces the cultures it wants to show.

tl;dr AoM is more show for cool than it is tactics and game.

On a side note, I purchased the RoN soundtrack so I could rip the files and put them in my copy so I can have actual quality instead of the compressed revisions the Steam release came with but I no fucking disc drive nor any computer that does.

>>344808895
I feel bad when I have them eat gold. I mean, it's a waste of precious gold!

That was the second game
The first one was a RTS

They already pulled Atlanteans out of their asses, what more do you want?
>>
>>344810507

Confirmed for faggot.
>>
>>344805946
AoM was the beginning of the end with its infinite farms
>>
>>344807081
I bought Rise of Fantasy at a garage sale. Havent played it yet since its a bitch to make work but is it good?
>>
>all we get is that shitty chinese expansion with reskinned units from other races
zzz
>>
>>344811534
Should have never killed Ensemble Studios. It was all Micro$oft's fault.
>>
>>344811225
Super units are necessarily bad.
In AoM they are.
Even without the Titans, you move down to the next most powerful tier, the myth units.
>>
>>344811598
>they kill off ensemble
>now they're trying to get back into rts games
its like a cruel joke
there will never be age of empires 4, or age of mythology 2, and if they do come out, they'll just be shitty console rts games with a pc port
>>
>>344811770
Didn't they somehow make RTS work on consoles? Like it wasn't terrible?
>>
>>344811870
Halo Wars wasn't terrible, even good as far as console RTS games go, but it didn't make megabucks (wow, a console RTS not selling particuarly well), so that was goodbye Ensemble.
>>
>>344811870
They did this with Supreme Commander 2 for XBox 360

A GOAT first game got causualized to the maximum.
>>
>>344811870
they work, and they're okay. but they're also extremely dumbed down, because they're for consoles. (obviously) and the pc version is exactly the same as the console one, at least for halo wars 2 it is. I wouldnt necessarily mind a new aoe on console/pc but it wouldnt be something that grips me for hundreds of hours like aoe 2/aom did.
>>
>>344811870
Go see how Red Alert 3 is played on console

maybe if it didnt run like I was playing it on an Emachine people would have liked it. At least Gaylo games dont run at 15fps

anyone else?
>>
>>344815252
How do new RTS games do it?
>>
>>344811748
Myth units get countered super hard by heroes.
Heroes do a boatload of bonus damage to myths unless you're playing as egyptaloids.
Heroes rip them up like tissue paper.
>>
>>344815252
Not me.
No problems here.
>>
>>344815252
As long as there's an attack move it's all good
>>
>>344815336
it's hard to say, I mean it's all the usual. group units or buildings with ctrl +1, move them around with right click, etc, but coming back from starcraft 2 it just kinda feels off.
>>
>>344815336
there are new RTS games? I thought the genre was dead
>>
>>344815438
Yes. Which turns the game into a defensive counter-myth and myth unit attack force with calv mixed in.
>>
>>344816175
>heroic contarius

Dead on console, SupCom FAF is still alive and well
>>
>>344812073
No matter what people say, at least SupCom2 had multi monitor support and that was cool as fuck.
