Serpent Of Eden said:God how i hated that game.
Still do.
Base building RTS are the worst kind of RTS for me.
I don't have a good enough reaction time to play it.
And playing a game where you need to do everything fast without being allowed to enjoy the scenery is a no no for me.
Reason why i stick to Turn based Strategy game or Real time with pause.
Because i can't BOTH manage my units and the bases.Pixiedust ^_^ said:The 'rush' I get from playing online is half the reason I play. It's addictive and satisfying. But enjoy the game however you want - there's a super robust editor for a reason And one of my favorite scenarios is Blood of the Bear which literally is just 'hold a chokepoint for an hour and a half'
EDIT: Though rebel, if your problem is reaction time, why only base-building RTS? If anything the RTS games that don't have bases are usually the ones that place a greater emphasis on micro. Usually.
The combat in Rise of Nations is way simpler. I could rant about why but I won't since this is just the screenshot thread.Jacobhinds said:There's just less to focus on when you don't have to micromanage an entire economy. Take Rise of Nations for example. The citizens just farm or mine or whatever with no efficiency loss from poor micromanagement, and the combat is more complex as a result. There's no boar minigame or sheep collection minigame to suck up your attention.

Since I never play multiplayer anyway the roleplay aspect is what I enjoy more. Plus the flanking bonus. I could never get used to the micromanage style of "traditional" RTS games like AOE where you have to manually retreat and fire with your skirmishers or whatever.
