Command and conquer generals is good and red alert 2(or 3 can't remember whish is newest) is good as well

Surely 3 would be newest? :P (I know you don't know whether there is a 3 or not, just being stupid)

Warhammer = Dawn of War, etc.
What Trisomy said is confusing, Dawn of War is out. So is the expansion and 2 other RTS warhammer games ("warhammer isnt coming out for a while but i hear its gonna be good.") The Dawn of War series is very fun! The storyline is fun to follow, normal skirmishes are fun, and the online gameplay is great if you know what you're doing (not particularly newbie friendly) - although getting some friends to buy it too is a good idea, me and some of my friends had tonnes of fun on this... PLUS I don't even like Warhammer - so it shows the quality of the game.

generals is even newer, and tiberium wars is like, either very recently released, or will be released soon.

Warhammer40k Dawn of War (ESPECIALLy since the new patch is out, which many fans were waiting for), Company of Heroes, Homeworld, and Command and Conquer Red Alert 2. Those are my favorite RTS. If I had to pick the best one, I'd say Company of Heroes. The game is amazing from the details, to the gameplay. Nothing like having Havoc engine (same physics engine in HL2), tons of Explosions, and Ragdoll physics.

If you want an intelligent RTS:

Age of Empires: Huge depth and history in the campaigns. I liked like the way everything was made fairly even(thought AOE3 basically just destroyed the series, it was horrible).

Warhammer:dawn of war,winter assault,dark crusade
Good sci-fi rts huge depth in story

Warhammer 40k Dark crusade is the best RTS iv played in a long long long time. And like the poster before me said i didn't even like the Warhammer franchise at all (was totally gay dude).

C&C3 looks ok played the demo and all seemed good. I guess a close 2nd would be Zero hour loved that game and still play it often.

I do believe a game called warhammer 4000 is coming out. and at the same time there is another warhammer game already out. So they are two dfferent games sorry for confusion.

off topic but theres rumors about a battlefield 40k coming out w/ armies such as imperial and orcs

Yeh I know :p But the Warhammer 40k game coming out soon is an mmorpg. This guy is asking for RTS games.

There's also a Warhammer fantasy?... I don't know, but that Warhammer with the elves and fairies and crap has an RTS called Mark of Chaos, I think.

I'm guessing that as it's made by the same company it's worth a look.

EDIT: Yeh, Warhammer:Mark of Chaos on the list of Warhammer RTS games.

Company Of Heroes, by far.
Oh, and Rise Of Nations for second... didn't really like Rise Of Legends.

03-21-2007, 02:36 AM
let me think to myself....don't really think of any 'best' RTS games, but here's a couple that IMHO kick much ***.

Populous: The Beginning
Summoner
Command and Conquer series up until EA bought out Westwood
Total Annihilation
Starcraft and Warcraft (duh)
Dune series (only played Dune 2k and Emperor: Battle for Dune)

Uuhhh.....bout it.

Edit:
And Dawn of War: Dark Crusade.

You guys missed out Savage : Battle of Newth'

Basically its a RTS and action FPS game where 2 player will get to become commander, commander has a top down RTS-like view and they can select players (FPS view) and tell them to mine a gold mine etc, If they fail to/do not comprehend to the commander, they lose loyalty points, so its like if the commander select you, (you move with wasd, attack with mouse) a star or arrow will appear on your head, (that is visualizable by you since you control in a 3rd person kind of view), so the commander will than use his mouse and ask you to move here/attack here/build here/mine here.. etc etc.

The whole Warcraft series in General, with Warcraft 2 being top.

Maki
03-22-2007, 04:33 AM
C&C.. one of the best.. of course you cant leave warcraft 3 and starcraft

hmm.. if you think about it the first ever red alert series is the best which started all the RTS games to pop out ^^

Stabkiller0
03-22-2007, 07:20 AM
Warcraft 3 was never a pure RTS game i mean its campaign was basically rpg. It may have been fun but look at the unit scales and 2 abundant resources?

03-22-2007, 07:40 AM
It's RTS, with some RPG elements added in

SUPREME COMMANDER@!!!! C&C 3!!!!!! btw, which one should i get? coz the best RTS i ever played was the C&C series and warcraft. and i liked them

Wahoo
03-23-2007, 06:11 PM
dungeon keeper
total annihilation
command and conquer
company of heroes
warhammer
and the total war series.

ZeronX
03-23-2007, 07:22 PM
Starcraft and C&C are the best RTS's IMO

Dawn of War is awesome as well but I prefer the fast-paced action of C&C ZH more, hehe (w00t for C&C 3). Same goes for CoH

I don't like SupCom too... SO GET C&C 3 INSTEAD!

:D

Dude, if you can get Total Annihilation somehow, get it. I thought it was way better then Supreme Commander, which was based on Total Annihilation.

Dawn Of War > All, hands down in my opinion. It's just amazing game with all the tactics you need etc. If you haven't tried, I truly hope you will.

Warcraft 3: TFT comes on a nice 2nd place also.

Warcraft 3 TFT FTW! Too bad Blizzard doesn't really care about it anymore and is focusing on WoW. I like playing custom maps on it best, like dota. The C&C games are ok but I have never played tiberium wars.
