Title: Supreme commander...for those with brains!
Post by: AvengerUK on Feb 21, 2007, 15:06:41
Finally, a new release of the RTS genre!

Got it yesterday, took ages to install, as 10GB Does! - once installed, i ran it, and felt my jaw drop! I havent played a game as good as this since "the good old days" (such as Age of Empires!), and, the only problem with it is that it seems to be designed for "next gen pcs" - by that i mean dual core is really needed.

has anyone else had the pleasure of trying this game? if so, what did you think of it!?

o, i think theres a patch coming very soon for it, so that should hopefully fix GPG (even those of us who have it installed...its still a bit iffy!)

Tried the demo...hated it so bad

You have to zoom all the way in to get any detail, then you cant do anything...

Command and Conquer Tiberian Wars out soon  :P Loved every single C & C game!

I argue Company of heroes is the best RTS out atm :D Theres a DX10 patch out soon  :-* OOOOOh yes

Hah your not alone there, CoH is awesome.  As good as the game is I hope they release a modern combat one where they have more freedom to work & be creative.

"You have to zoom all the way in to get any detail, then you cant do anything..."

The whole point is to zoom in and out. Thats what make it different, and the best RTS ive played to date!
