Man, I'm CRAVING some rts to play. Any good ones that are fairly new?

C&C 3 is supposed to be badass.

Huh? Wasn't Westwood assimilated by EA?

i believe so

So then its made by some other folk eh? Westwood reformed under another name, I think.

Spore. It is so much better than I thought it would be...

Yeah I played that.. conquered two planets and didn't want to play any longer. Started a new race, and didn't want to play any longer either =(

C&C 3 is gonna be great.

after this trailer your gonna get it: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/40181.html

And I like spore, you sux.

I'm playing Act of War: Direct Action. It's a nice RTS that hasn't got a lot of exposure and press. The units are balanced well, the graphics are good, and I like the modern day setting. Although it is very similar to Command and Conquer 3 (Not Red Alert, but C&C 3... and yes there is a difference), this game is actually fun. Infantry actually matters in this game, they're not just canon fodder.
Having a team of Abrams tanks steamroll through city blocks, with teams of Delta force soldiers being choppered in by Black hawks on the rooftops... its awesome.

Is it like generals?

Kinda like generals, but better in my opinion. There is an expansion that came out called Act of War: High Treason, and I heard the single player campaign offers some really challenging scenarios.
The only way you can get the game is online though, probably from like Direct2Drive or soemthin.

Man I really did not like generals =(. Well, I did, a lot, but then started disliking it. Shoulda gotten the xpac, maybe.

Starcraft? or Warcraft III? Those mostly stick out as my top RTS games with the upcoming Starcraft 2 which looks kick ***

If your looking for a space type strategy, check out Sins of a Solar Empire. Imagine Civ 4, Masters of Orion 2, mixed together except the game plays in real time instead of turn base.
I tried playing it, and it was way complicated for me. But if you like those types of games, I'd recommend at least checking it out.

As for me, the more I play Act of War, the more I'm starting to appreciate the game. It reminds me of C&C Generals, but its not like it. It's not the strategy game where you can make a squad of Tanks and just bulldoze the enemy. It's a strategy game that, dare I say it, actually involves strategy.

Agree Sins of a Solar Empire is execellent but be prepared to waste a few days of your life playing, it is massive and thats an understatement.
If you also like older RTS then most definatly play Age of Empires 2 Age of Kings or anything beyond that.

I'm asking for some good RTS cause I've already played all these "old" ones. Probably all of them that are worth mentioning, Lemony, but thanks.

And leecho, thanks so much! I've read an article about Sins of a Solar Empire in PC gamer some time ago, and then forgot the name and could never find that magazine again >.< But now you've found it! Gonna go get it right away. 4X + RTS = <3

Er... how do I increase my fleet cap? #^_^#

Ah, I have to research it. I was looking around for structures or upgrades. Well, I haven't played much yet but with 2000 as the absolute cap, I think that should be enough.

Say, are there many people playing it online?

That's a good description of Sins.... Another problem with it is that it doesn't have any campaign mode at all (which Stardock plans to rectify when they release an expansion pack for the thing).

However, Sins of a Solar Empire is still one of the very best RTS games out there, and is worth buying.

I've never played Sins.....I need to pick it up.
