I must say this game is fantastic!

SO I'm new HAh. I really surprised many rts players have overlooked this game. This is by far the best experience I've ever had with playing a real-time STRATEGY game.


Really! Every game that has been out lately, like WC3, to me is not really a strategy game in my eyes. It's a all out resource war which I really am growing tired of lately. AOM anyone? When they attack early and take out your resource gatherers you're pretty much screwed. I'm not saying that recources are obsolete in this game it's seems that they can be better protected and you know when an enemy is taking over a Strategy point and it takes a while for them to do so then you ou can defend them appropriately.

I love how when watching some recorded games that there are small skirmishes going on around the map then it gettinto an all out war.


I can't believe i've overlooked this game. Can't wait till the Ex-pack.

i'm also looking forward to AOE3 even though it's focused alot on resource and economy management. but jsudgin by Ensembles track record i'm sure it will be a blast.

Welcome to the forums and the Game, be nice and read the stickies. Also, the mods and admins like cookies as well.

It's great that your loveing this game so much and am quite impressed by your attitude toward it. Just, for future reference however keep the huge, bolded, 10000+ font to a minimum. Other then that, enjoy the single player portion and see ya online.

i too just bought the game yesterday and i love it. Its not as good of an experiance Starcraft was for me but is still amazing. i love how this game acualy takes stratigy unlike Warcraft 3 where all you do is who ever gets an army fastest wins. Its to bad there isnt much people online as in starcraft and warcraft.

Defilers became the bane of non-chaos players

[GRIM Ripper]

there still are plenty of games... it might not be 1000s of games to choose from, but ive never been stuck looking for a game to play in.

In two months when the expack comes out there will be alot more people online I know of many who are waiting for it to come out so they can play online again (fairly).

Erm, yes. welcome to the boards.
Since this thread is kinda pointless and has very little discussion value, we'll stop that here.
Please cut back the use of big fonts.
