"This is a very fine game, actually it reminds us about, when
KALiSTO released the scene's first PC "ISO" game called
Starcraft by Blizzard Entertainment. Not because we would rate
this release in the same league as the Blizzard classic, but
because this game is actually good. Yes, we know it has been
done before, but the developers of this game, actually
maintained to make this entertaining and succeeded in giving
us a feeling, we have searched for over the last years."
Maybe it is worth a try. I'd like to see some reviews from big gaming sites but so far I've seen none.

And just after I said that it got pre'd, strange world we live in huh?, if you read the forum rules here you'll see that questions regarding time of "scene releases" can't be answered.
Might it be then that it was a joke on my behalf?, highly probable. |

Im big fan of RTS and adventures and RPG-s but above all im fan of quality and i dont see any quality in this game. From stupid AI that gets stuck in every tree to units not responding to orders. I know that some people can overlook this kind of things but i cant. 3/10 for me.

WOW is all ive got to say. I am just about to buy it from gamersgate, this game rocks! really fast paced (but hard and challenging) and fun. The RTS elements are excellent, the economy system is really great, units are unique and balanced, graphics are nice not too flashy and run smooth as butter from a hot knife.
One downside - there arent many maps, but im sure this will be fixed in due time.
10/10 from me. love it.

Yeah, i really recommend it just going on what i've seen so far and I am only a few hours into play. Also Skirmish mode looks really good, but I think learning each faction will take a long time since they are all completely different even down to the way they use the economy.
Heres some nice Screenies:

yea i agree, maybe its just me but the ai would never move to attack something i had to keep moving them myself which is just crappy, and from the limited play i had there seemed to be mission bugs, on the 2nd level where you have to reach the control tower i reached the tower had some cut scene crap where i was told to find one of those builder things to repair the baracks lol then "mission failed your commander has died" and i didnt do shit! he was literally dead as soon as the cut scene ended aparently.
btw the sound is crap lol the gunfire was giving me a headache.
if dune 2000 had been called dune 2007 and just released it would piss all over this game

Read the manual, oh wait.... 
You dont tell units to move and shoot at a single guy in this game, they shoot on their own, you just tell them to move like in Supreme Commander.
What happens when you click on an enemy unit is that you tell your units to prefer their targeting on that type of units.
I just bought it from gamersgate, awesome game =) Tough i cant find any rooms online, noone playing or buggy? Dont tell me i HAVE to install xfire?
This game really shows that 3d in rts games and other "flat" games (where you only use 1 static view 99% of the time) is utterly pointless in every single way!
I mean look at these ground enviroments, they look insane, just because they are simple 2d images where every single pixel can be hand crafted to perfection without being limited by texture size/memory or polycounts.
The animations of some units could be a tad smoother, as in more .gif frames or whatever lol, but meh.

you learn that in the first mission.... but there stupid even if there beeing shot at and there out of range they just stand there instead of moving forwards a few metres.
the double click command that makes them focus on one group of units (not the single right click one:) ? rather them randomly attacking everything should atleast make them move into firing range aswell instead of them just standing there like idiots waiting for the enemy to wander in range like sheep
i was hoping for a good old style rts with base building but i just cant play this pile of crap, its nowhere near as good as the classic 2d rts were for me i like to control units with some inteligence

I will await some hamachi mp with some buddies before I give it a rating, but so far the SP is a high 8/10. I haven't really experienced any bugs and AI seems OK.
