This is the first I have heard of this, will it be an expansion or a sequel?

Spunj99 · 31 Mar 2006 at 11:46

Sequel.

Take a look at some screenshots, looks great!

if the gameplay is anywhere near as good as Rise of Nations it'll be awesome.

Looking forward to this one!

cool, i saw some video's of it and it looks quite a bit different from the last rise of nations game, here's hoping its as good or better than the previous though

Also looking forward to this. RoN was great fun.

I found RoN to be disappointing, lets hope this will be an improvement.

Eh??? If it's even HALF as good a game as RoN was I (and I expect a lot of people) will be pleased.

There's a criteria that uber hardcore RTS players rate games by:

Question 1: Is it Starcraft?
If yes, the game is excellent.
If no, then the developers of the game should be shot and left to rot.

1. Empire Earth
2. Age of Empires 2: The Conquerors.
3. Age of Empires 3

Best 3 RTS's ever. Period.

Ahhhhhh

TBH, i think AEO3 was a huge let down for many AEO fans. It certainly wouldn't come under my 3 fav RTS games, unlike AEO2

I like abit of pace to my RTS games, and multiplayer competition. We all have different opinions and it's by no means a bad game but I was a little disappointed at the lack of fluidity and pace.

Biggest Dissapointment: Empire Earth expansion.

I love that game.

1 hour and 26 mins left!! :O I liked the first, so this should be good.

Frost · 31 Mar 2006 at 20:34

installing the game now

hope its good :O

I can't get this working on my computer. I wonder if the demo isn't x64 friendly... It produces an error whilst unpacking the MSI files from the EXE

Haven't actually played it, but from first impressions even on highest details it looks pretty crud and runs like a dog.

Kerplunk · 2 Apr 2006 at 11:35

So where can you download this?
