>>741520308I found aoe2 less fun to watch than WC3
>>741520308I'm trying to watch it and I am bored out of my fucking skull. I just do not care about the skills needed to play this game, at all.
The future of RTS is the inevitable Warcraft 3 revival.

>>741522954Hey, I remember Godde. He was the Spring 1944 guy. Not the dev, but the guy who played it all the time.
>>741522072The first aoe2 matches were terrible because higher elo player did just win. The later matches are a lot better.
Does anyone else find it hard to go back to other RTS after SupCom? Things like strategic zoom, infinite selection, intelligent attack-move, factories assisting factories, smooth economy scaling, reclaim, multi-front warfare, missiles, artillery, shields, experimentals, and maps large enough to support all of it just make most RTS feel constrained by comparison. Once you get used to all that, it's hard not to notice how many RTS are still built around a comparatively narrow set of interactions.
>>741522759Fucking imagine making a game with no features except broken multiplayer matchmaking, scuffed balance with wacky bullshit, make it free to play on release and expecting it to beat Starcraft 2's release sales just to justify its existance.I'm glad it's dead.
>>741527201It's not just you, you don't have much tolerance for bad UI after a game like SupCom.
>>741527201no
>>741527174the king suicides were funny to watch though
>>741527201it's a shame it's such a soulless game
>>741529220>Can't get into the definition of "it's the future; better save time".
>>741527201no because the controls and UI are pretty bad compared to ZK/BAR
>>741528860everybody learned quickly after and probably downloaded the big king mods
>>741527201some people just like driving on manual more
>>741522072they are pretty much all boring as shit to watch except wc3
>>741530436supcom can be fun
>>741527201Is this the birth of an epic new meme

>>741530436WC3 isn't fun to watch.
>>741531582it objectively is though, lots of skillshots and hype moments, it's easy for the audience to follow
>>741531705>disgustingly high TTK>fun to watchNo
>>741522717I can feel it brewing, there is a lot of activity online around it recently.It would be an easy win for Blizz to shove something out like a new DLC or soemthing for it.>>741523682>MythImagine if Bungie made a new RTS
The difference between RTS and MOBA.
>>741531759yes, being able to watch a battle unfold makes it fun for the audience, blobs of units being melted instantly is not fun
>>741532330No, watching things smack each other with nerf bats is not fun. WC2 is more fun to watch and play because things actually die.
Are any of these games as fun to watch as Gyle/SupCom?
>>741534895You can try Zero-K on steam and check for yourself. It's basically SupCom lite with tighter balance, terraforming, technically more factions (as they are their own factories now), line-move for custom formations and auto-kiting on attack move.Also you can spectate basically any non-passworded game with no issues for whoever's playing and even draw cooperatively on the map by holding the ~ tilde button.
