Kirkatronics Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 im looking for the best RTS games for the pc. i only have a laptop, so id prefer the lower spec ones. give me your opinions.
Tales Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Rise of nations is very fun. It's similar to Age of Empires.
chrizkerr2 Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Warcraft 3, amazing game, which I have been playing for years.
Guest Jordan Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War (and its expansion) Age of Empires 2: The Conquerors.
Daft Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Age of Mythologies - Fairly old but f*cking awesome!! and Starcraft Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War
gaggle64 Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Definitly Warhammer 40K. You can get the whole Anthology for sub-£20, it doesn't require very high specs and it's a simply spectacular orgy of sci-fi violence and gore.
AshMat Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 The original starcraft is meant to be great. From my experience of only CnC, i'd recommend Generals/Zero Hour
Charlie Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Total Annihilation Must be about 10 years old. Still my favourite RTS of all time.
Caris Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Age of Mythologies - Fairly old but f*cking awesome!! Yes! loved that game.
KKOB Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Command and Conquer-Red Alert 2 I wish i had something which could run this game! :'(
gaggle64 Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Really? By today's standards you could run it on a potato chip. What are you running your internet browser on?
gaggle64 Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Ah, I see. He oughta buy himself a couple of potato chips.
Marshmellow Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Age of Empires 1, and the Rise of Rome expansion pack wins life.
Dan_Dare Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 Definitly Warhammer 40K. You can get the whole Anthology for sub-£20, it doesn't require very high specs and it's a simply spectacular orgy of sci-fi violence and gore. he speaketh truism-ness. dow is awesome and cheap as funk.
The fish Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 Total Annihilation Must be about 10 years old. Still my favourite RTS of all time. YES! This man knows his stuff! TA is the best game ever made, probably! It's truly amazing, and the expansion pack (or at least the first) was probably the best expansion pack to any game, ever. Oh, and it's less than £5, or can be gotten off the net for free. In-joke: KROGOTH! AHH! :awesome: God, I now know what the first game to be installed on my new laptop will be... : peace: In fact, Moria, I must play you one day, I'd like to see how you roll in it. I'll give you one helpful tip now for if we ever do play each other: build flak cannons. Lots and lots of flak cannons. :wink:

I don't even know where it is anymore. I was immense at it back in the day though. Used to play online, my bro and I would go in a team (2 computers + no CD crack) and kick ass on Lava High Ground.
McPhee Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 Total Annihilation - As posted above Warzone 2100 - My favourite RTS ever, was pure class (and the first i played). Completely customisable tanks, epic base structures and the best patch EVER!!! (It added new single player missions, multiplayer maps and doubled the size of the tech tree! FOR FREE!) Warhammer: Dawn Of War - Best RTS of the last few years, although it is more limited in scope than TA and WZ Or, if you are after something a bit grander in scale (but not completely Real-Time) try the Total War series
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 Nothing beats Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars for me at the mo. The online mode has taken most of my gaming time. So much to learn in a game like that, really recommend it.
Choze Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 Check out Toal War series and Command and conquer.
