bump for ded genre

Just installed battle of middle earth 2, it's gonna be great kicking some orc butts

>COH2

Supcom is best RTS

Haven't played AS2 in months.
Is there still something resembling a community?

>tfw can't beat Deep Sea in RA2

first time playing through this game after years of grand strategy

god damn those squishy controls fuck me

GOD DAMN IT, EVERYONE AND THEIR GRANDMA IS SHOOTING US WITH RPGs!

>Le ebin wanking jokes


How could they fail so hard after that god tier voice acting in coh 1?

> nothing here but us trees

the hero america needed

>COH1
>americans sound like midwest country boys with raw voices ready to rip some jerry ass
>german VA sounds like a propaganda leader
>grenadiers sound superior and they hate both volks and riflemen
>even when getting fucked up they still bark commands
>COH2
>americans are all little pussy boys
>german commander sounds like a grandpa
>grenadiers are little pussies

>Death before retreat !

The only good thing about coh 2 VA, is the Russian commander (who I believe is Colonel Churkin).
Other than that, it's either cringe-worthy or really boring.

>Some allied American fanboy makes a "balance" mod for COH2
>Everyone praises it
>It clearly utterly destroys Axis completely
>Allies are new superheroes
>Whole community praises him as a god
>Relic accepts his mod and makes some alterations
>Puts the mod into an offical patch by fucking up some already fucked up features


>USF are now gods of destructions, most sucessfull faction in 1v1s
>Brits still use "build emplacements around VP and go AFK tactics"
>Soviets still have terminator infantry
>Wermacht is the most nered faction in the history of RTS genre, pointless to play
>OKW has been nerfed to the point its Wermacht's retarded twin brother


gg wp

Lelic just cherry-picked every bit of thing they wanted from the patch and left all the thing that made it good as a whole.

Miragefla did nothing wrong.

>play MOWAS2: Origins campaign
>dumbed down and simplified remake of the original MoW campaign
I hope Gates of Hell won't be a huge disappointment.

The stats show otherwise.

THe current balance is good.

they didnt push through some important changes. Most of all heavy tank callins being more reliant of teching. Also soviets dont have weapon upgrades on their conscripts. The COH1 riflemen were terminators. And those had a reason for being called that.

That said they should fix the accuracy on ostherr pathers. The final tech is a big investment. And what you get is a tank that fires once every hour and you have to pray that it is a hit. Seriously as allies you can just roll away when youre hurt because if the panther chases he will just miss and get snared in your territory.

What weapon upgrade was in the mod?
As I recall he added a lieutenant upgrade, but it's bad since he is armed with a ppsh, plus you need to reinforce a 7 unit to the squad.

>It smells like volksgranadiers in here!

>YOURE PAID TO KILL NOT DIG TRENCHES WITH YOUR FACE

i hate CoH 2 multiplayer so fucking much and suck cock at it. for some reason, i suck at fighting against Grenadier spam who can just fuck over your vehicles with fausts and they have enough sight to just run around MGs.
CoH 2 meta makes me feel like i'm playing Starcraft sometimes; spam the fuck out of tier 1, okay, spam the fuck out of tier 2! ok, spam the fuck out of tier 3! and so on and so forth.

but for some reason i rape at MoW:AS 2 multiplayer.
in MoW you can wait it out strategically and you get rewarded for waiting it out with a Jumbo or a Tiger or whatever. your choices matter more, you can't fall back on spam blobs.

>Yes comrade obvious, they are shooting at us.

They dont have enough sight to see your MGs. If you get enough conscripts you can hold on to your fuelpoint and get a T70 out. At max range it eats through grens whil they cannot faust it. Or you just click the stormtrooper commander and call those guys in. They cant die and shred grens

>spam the fuck out of tier 1, okay, spam the fuck out of tier 2! ok, spam the fuck out of tier 3! and so on and so forth.
Play soviets.
Zerg conscripts.
Zerg T34.

Win.

i shoulda did the stormtroop call in, you're right.
i also should've got a sniper.i can't play soviet without a sniper, but i don't think straight in multiplayer and need my team to actually mobilize and not camp a point.

people talk shit about brits "taking a point then afking", a lot of people do that no matter what faction they play.

>my team
you play 2v2?

nah i think it was 3v3. it was fucking horrible though, each one of us went to a different VP and i was left alone against 2 people.

fuck team games.

then play 1v1. 3v3 is an unbalanced mess anyway.

ah okay. i did not know that.

which armies do you play user?

>simcity britbong here

the game has a tight balance on about when shit hits the field. Some of the lategame shit is OP but you cannot get it without some big sacrifice. Like the KT for OKW or shit from the brits. In 2v2 it is already a problem sometimes but in 3v3 and 4v4 the shit is just completely fucked. Like light vehicles are great in 1v1 and 2v2 but in 3v3 hey just get overwhelmed by a million grens.

ostherr masterrace.
>mfw the flametrack got buffed and brits still dont have a snare

hey guys can I join?

Ostheer
>mfw allied tanks funnel in the center of Steppes

Volks had best lines in Coh1

Fuck, I don't know why. I've played this game so many goddamn times and it keeps being fun. Where's my WiC sequel?

>dont forget to thank the driver children

Is this worth it, Sup Forums?

hihihi yes wehrman, keep spamming those bunkers and don't mind us landing in your bunker free zone hehe

So I liked the campaigns and skirmishes for these games.
>RA 2 and 3, Generals, Tiberium Wars
>DoW I and II
>CoH 1
>Joint Task Force
>Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance
Any recommendations on what should I play?

did you played RA1 and its expansions?

help

>COH1 on steam sale
>find it really enjoyable and overall solid game
>can't wait to play COH2
>expecting COH1 but improvement of all aspects
>its shit
welp.

when did you play COH2. Early COH2 was realyl different but over the course of patches they pulled it more towards COH1. Still I like COH1 more

Couple months back, I don't know I just feel like campaign missions force me into situations which are time limited, I like to take my time, build my base up and fight on my own terms.

Forgot to mention that I played all of their expansions too. I also played the older CnC games and they are fun albeit somewhat dated, the Tiberium game after RA3 was meh. Haven't played any other CoH or Supreme Commander games though. And just to be clear, I'm only looking for good campaigns and a little bit of skirmishes, not into multiplayer RTS.

Fuck if I know, I beat RA 2 a year or two ago so I don't really remember. But I beat it all on the hardest possible difficulty by being a turtling faggot most of the time. And I just looked up the mission on YT, I don't remember there being any hidden tricks to it.
I'd say I probably relied on the Aircraft Carriers and the Destroyers to defend my base and constantly repair at the docks, then just do a massive counter push. Maybe some ground units in transports to ease the attack if I had the founds for it.

You know he was a fuck up

You and I both know that his sacrifice still wasn't enough to compensate for his fuck ups

>SP
well that is pretty different.

flametrack is hilariously countered by brit's anti-armour inf sections

all you need is 1 squad to do it too and you get delicious osttears

play world in conflict. Bit different from normal RTS but the campaign is neat
Also blizzard campaigns are usually neat. Good mix of standard RTS skirmishing and unique missions

Try World in Conflict. Get it in sale tho since multiplayer is kill

10 motherfucking dayssssssss

I have it, no its mediocre as fuck.

Before the reboot update resource management was a clusterfuck. After reboot they simplified it to a single resource way too dumbed down but not necessarily a bad move.

Still sucks compared to C&C genrals ZH

I actually have the Soviet Assault expansion, bought it as a kid and didn't realize it wasn't a standalone. Will try that then.
Thanks anons

How are the resources handled now?

I liked Red Alert 3, my favourite faction pic related

Uprising was fun, too bad there was no MP support. The graphics were a bit too cartoony but it wasn't a huge issue.

...

is he ok

I think it is just oil now, a single resource you don't have to manage storage. I can't recall whether oil was in limited quantity but you get buildings that generate that resource at a tick rate at the last tier that require power. Banks act like oil derricks in CNC, you capture them by garrisoning with infantry and they generate income.

Similar to generals, but without the fun call ins and wacky shit.

alternatively:
>Riflemen
>Riflemen
>AA
>Rangers
>Rangers
>Rangers
>Pershing

with some fighting positions it basically plays itself

Rain....open-top tank....fucking great engineering.

Try act of war similar to generals

It was so bad they had to resurrect Red Dragon which is on life support, and start selling nation DLCs to recover revenue lost in AoA.

...

Explain the meme?

This meme again.

When I was a wee boy; I was into Command and Conquer 3: Tib Wars - I thought WIC would be like that.

I was wrong.

I learned that Bannon always got yelled at,
nukes were scary, but fucking awesome and the infamous quote after I lost a bunch of units when I was calling some more in units "IF YOU NEED MORE UNITS, YOU CAN BRING THEM IN NOW".

World in Conflict is a fantastic game and blew away all my expectations.
