Quote: |
Plot:
R.U.S.E. takes place within the World War II time period.
There are two campaigns in the game, the first takes place from the point of view of Major Joseph Sheridan of the United States Army. A Yale dropout, Joe Sheridan later joined the US Army and then assumed control of the First Armored Division. The game follows Major Sheridan as he battles from Africa to Germany. The second takes place from the point of view General Major Erich Von Richter (German Army) a tactical and cunning general in the German army whose dreams of military perfection on the battlefield were realized with the invention of the Blitzkrieg. The game follows General Richter who while battling allied generals is trying to uncover a traitor in the upper ranks of his command.
Dimension:
Dimension is one of the fundamental aspects of R.U.S.E. The IRISZOOM Engine displays maps a hundred times larger than in traditional RTS games, which makes raises strategy to an unprecedented scale and gives deception a lot more depth. With the zoom, you are able to both command your units as a chief-in-command and manage your troops at a tactical level as a ground officer, for example by deploying a fake offensive on your opponent’s HQ while carefully hiding your infantry in villages to ambush the surrounding tanks.
Deception:
Deception is the essence of R.U.S.E.’s gameplay, just as it is the core of warfare: deception techniques such as espionage, decoys and radio silence played an essential role during World War II and continue to figure in modern conflicts. R.U.S.E. features deception cards – also known as ruses – that let you apply a deception technique to a specific sector in the map. The ruses are split into three categories :
- Reveal: these ruses such as the Spy Plan or Decryption are useful in order to understand or uncover your enemy’s actions.
- Hide: the Radio Silence or Camouflage Net will let you hide your troops or buildings from your opponent’s radar.
- Fake: the last category of ruses is used to trick your enemy, to make him believe what you want him to believe. The Decoy Offensive simulates an attack to confuse your adversary.
Multiplayer:
R.U.S.E. will feature an online multiplayer component and allows for dedicated servers. It will contain both cooperative and competitive multiplayer, and provide for ranked matches.

Remember to also include "RUSE" in the title so it can actually be found. "R.U..." (with dots) cannot be found

I played it for a good part of an hour and I find myself fighting with the controls more than the enemy. It's unfortunate my PC isn't near at the top of the line as I'd like it to be, otherwise I'd probably opt to try it out the way it was meant to be played and thats on the computer with the mouse.... :/
The campaign servers as a decent tutorial, with a storyline and characters you probably won't give two shits about. But they're there. So whatever.
I like it, it's a neat game, with some solid, relatively fresh ideas, but it's an RTS and xbox controller really drops the ball on that front.

i love this game and i dont think the controls are bad at all. For the console version theyve really go it as good as you could expect them to get it.
Whats so hard about a to select a single unit x to select multiple units and Y for the build/ruse menu?
The ruses are ok but i love the balance of units and the stealth approach on missions in this game, its fresh and fun

It can be depending on how many thousand dollars you're willing to drop on microsoft surface table or/and touch screen LCD set up. (which apparently is something that works in this game)

I agree, having no problem at all with the controls. I've noticed that there seem to be a lot of people who are either too lazy or just too inept to use the Xbox controller for strategy. I do think a mouse is better, but the controller is fine.

Nope, most people are too stupid and/or too lazy to use the controller I heard. Or maybe you're just too badass.
Though give this game a little bit of time and maybe one price drop and you will only see godlinke players still playing it. That was my experience with EndWar, no one played it, couple of months down the line, the only people that did, took it way too seriously.

I stopped playing EndWar after constantly dealing with the cocksuckers rage-quitting right before the end, cheating me out of my victory. It wasn't just once or twice, it was EVERY SINGLE TIME. Screw that game.

At least RUSE counts it as a win if they disconnect. Still, I want to actually have the satisfaction of destroying their base!
