Simple question, which upcoming RTS game are you most looking forward to? As for me, all of them.

Upcoming RTS games include C&C Generals 2, Starcraft 2:Heart of the Swarm, Company of Heroes 2, and End of Nations.

End of Nations:



C&C Generals 2:



Company of Heroes 2:



Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm:

they nearly all look the same.

Guess i'll go with C&C Generals 2

For me it's a tie between EON and SC2: HotS at the moment.

This is NOT happening

And, granted the last 2 are icy and look similar but, I don't see how they look the same... EON is kinda shiny and unrealistic whereas Generals 2 is... brown/grey dust like early C&C3 shots.

I honestly don't see how they all look the same.

Show me CoH2 gameplay and I might consider that one. Until then I'm neither positive nor negative about it.

Homeworld 3.

Playing too much RTS does that to a person.

It kinda all feels the same to me too, even though I know that's not the case. I guess I've finally started growing tired of RTS (unsurprising as I played almost purely RTS titles in my youth) and moved on to other genres at the moment (notably RPG).

I still kinda have that dream of having a modern warfare/near-future setting type of RTS though... Generals 2 may seem like that but it feels a little too much on the futuristic tech side of the spectrum. EoN just feels too over-the-top (like almost RA2/RA3 style) for me.

What I might be considering is this:


The MEC2 mod for C&C 3 was completed and I've been meaning to try it out but kinda lazy to reinstall C&C 3 but it does convey the kind of modern/futuristic balance I'd love to have in an RTS, notably in the way they mix real life units with fictional near-future ones.

Plus how can you not love a mod that has its own Baneblade http://media.moddb.c...11_screen10.jpg

We can only dream...

Generals 2 and CoH 2. Can't say I'm big on anything Blizzard-related anymore.
