Is it me or is C&C the only futuristic based RTS there is, having played them all to death, incuding TA, im now stuck to find another to get into.
Seems 99% are all based on WW1/2 or Rome, stuff like that, where I realy prefer them to have a futuristic feal to them.
Maybe im doing myself a great injustice by not trying games like CoH, I cant help but feel that surely there are games like C&C out there somewhere.

So if anyone can reccomend something along the C&C lines, does'nt have to be that recent either.......while I go away and force myself to play the CoH demo if there even is one

Seems you get Dawn Of War free with Comany Of Hero's so im downloading the CoH demo's and i'll give that a try.
I just looked at Rome Total War and the first screenshot I saw was a elephant killing people :confused:

so yeah I likes the laser's more than death by mammals, but there is a demo for that too so i'll que that up in fileplanet also

Roll on 2007 I say.

Darn it 1.8gig for CoH demo, damn Zen internet and there download caps

I wont have the space to get it untill reset tomorrow now.

I have actualy done all the blizzard games star/warcraft, gonna settle down to the CoH demo in a little while, I have high hopes, hope I do like it as with it being bundled with DoW and at 24.99 in some places it seems quite the bargain.

Do you play multiplayer or do you do your "strategy" versus predictable AI?

I have actualy never played a RTS online vs real opponents, gonna give CoH demo a bash and take it from there.

Well I completed the demo, sort of enjoyed it, the graphics are great but its the soldiers voices that crack me up

There is a lot to take in and was annoyed by a few little things, like the engineer AI, they would build sandbag/wire walls and lock them self off on the enemy side rather that stay on the allied side of the bridge.
Game overall reminds me a lot of call of duty, exspecialy the first level.
If it was'nt for the DoW free game with it, I wouldnt of ordered it but that swinged it for me. Gives me a couple of RTS's to complete before the big guns arrive.
