Im looking for an RTS, something to take me away from FPS's and MMORPGS, while still allowing me to have fun playing it online. Whats your favorite RTS? and which should i buy? BTW, No WC3.

Re: Favorite RTS?
I loved RA2, really did.
WiC is fantastic online, really such a great game.
AoE2 is also awesome.
Company of Heroes is wicked online and offline.
And so is DoW (haven't tried the second one though)
SOOOOO MUCH AWESOMNESS -
Re: Favorite RTS?
I used to play RA2 alot, but im looking for a little bit better graphics then that. I mean, i would go for something WC3 or higher.Comment

Re: Favorite RTS?
The Total War series is always fun, but I never played it online. And as mentioned, Company of Heroes is great both online and offline.Comment

Re: Favorite RTS?
Company of Heroes, Company of Heroes, Company of Heroes!!!!!!!!
Best best RTS game i have ever played magnificent online and great offline seriously the bots could be very challenging if you don't know how to play or make a few mistakes in battle.

The trilogy pack is selling for 14.99 pounds, but i think you are from the US right?
Anyways my best recommendation is CoH makes a great candidate for LAN, another games is Generals & Zero Hour best with a few mods makes great LAN. I also play Demigod but i guess that's more of RPGRTS than just RTS.
Joint Task Force is another game although you might want to try the demo first, i don't know why but after playing CoH for the first time all other RTS games are nothing to me lol

Re: Favorite RTS?
Starcraft and WC3 are probably the two best.
Although I did enjoy CoH.Comment

Re: Favorite RTS?
Finally someone mentions StarCraft. It's still, by far, the best and most balanced RTS to date...that's my opinion anyway.Originally posted by Kyle
I would also recommend Age of Empires 2, or AOE3 if you want to play something with improved graphics.
I'll also cast a vote for COH.

Re: Favorite RTS?
Company of Heroes
Any total war game
Wacraft 3 + expansion
Starcraft
supreme commander
World in conflict
All of them great games, brilliant as multiplayer, and some good at singleComment

Re: Favorite RTS?
Supreme Commander and World in Conflict for modern strategy games.
Dune II and Warcraft for the old crap.Comment

Re: Favorite RTS?
aaaaah I'm crap at RTS (no logic you see), though I enjoyed Rome Total War, and LOTR:Battles for Middle Earth 1 + 2 as I love Lord of the Rings :awes
Though from the vast list above me it would seem you'd be hard pushed to find a RTS that isn't worth playing...Comment

Re: Favorite RTS?
Listen closely, I shall tell you a secret, we have to be quiet though lest the Starcraft fans send millions of South Koreans after us
the best RTS ever made is...
...
...
Total Annihilation
THERE I SAID IT
otherwise consider playing:
Homeworld series (Homeworld should be used as another word for awesome)
Total War series - turn based and real time
Supreme Commander - Successor to TA, not as good, but with Forged Alliance its oh so close
World in Conflict - self explanatory
Company of Heroes
otherwise a lot of RTS games these days, sadly will make you actually dumber when you play them, scientific studies have shown for example you lose 1% off your IQ for every hour you spend on C&C3 etcComment

TA matches took forever...(And SupCom too, for that matter...)Originally posted by MrChris_CJ
I haven't been a fan of C&C since generals. Tiberium Wars was slightly disappointing, RA3 was just downright bad.Comment
