What the best C&C type games out now ?

[ste2005]

World In Conflict was pretty damn good - Cold War 1980's era

Units only..no base building unfortunately

Very fun game none the less

 

[Antony101]

Company of Heroes 1 is an absolutely amazing game.

Some outstanding mods out for it too.

Why is SupCom:FA better regarded than SupCom2?

because SC2 was very basic compared to SC1 or FA

 

[mithrandir]

Age of Empires series- I believe there is a HD version out too.

supcom+FA
RA2

planetary annihilation

Does anyone know where the cheapest place to buy this game from ??


I missed the steam flash sale of this game in it last sale..

Downloaded Red Alert 3 demo today. Can't say I've ever played these sorts of games much before, hardly at all in fact. Worth trying out the demo I suppose, though I've heard this one's pants.

World in Conflict Complete Edition is £5 in the Steam sale at the moment, cheapest I've seen it for in a long time.

Just got planetary annihilation myself. Really great game so far.

Nice to play something other than Sup Comm and FA but time will tell if it's as good as they are. The game is still being discovered.

You've got to try RUSE. I was hooked on this for a couple of years. Online is where it really shines, 4v4 can be brutal

 

[Sutters]

original company of heroes for me.

 

[ikillbears]

starcraft

[Ur round next]

I love the wargame series

You were only 3 days out from it being a perfect year bump...

Starcraft 2 if you like being slaughtered online by a bunch of Koreans.

 

[Duke]

SupCom 1 & 2 and Planetary Annihilation.

 

[Kainz]

Supreme Commander Forged Alliance by far. Get the Forged Alliance Forever mod installed - adds multiplayer support and some more recent patching. Plus has a lot of mods built in, love the Black Ops mod

This imo. Before I discovered the joys of FA I would have said Age of Empires II - Conquerors, but Forged Alliance is just something else.

 

[modo77]

Starcraft 2
Company of heroes
Sup Com 1

 

[Xordium]

No base building but the Wargame series has the best action by far if you like thinking. If you are the kind who likes spamming a certain type of unit then it is maybe not for you. If using units appropriately and marshalling your forces into a coherent body is your thing then take a look.

I think it would also be Supcom:FA cant say I have played anything better, did play Supcom 2 and while not bad its way too much of a step back from FA.

Cant say I have ever enjoyed C&C all that much once Total Annihilation came out it made those sorts small RTS's of games redundant for me and really I still like to play the original now and again.
Found starcraft to be dull and way too small after playing FA.

You might want to try Spring RTS:
Basically it is a opensource engine that was meant to be a Total Annihilation clone but in 3D, but now you can also play a bunch of other mods that are similar to TA but also some very different. It is free so you have nothing to lose and if you liked the original TA you will love it.
