I'm not saying that's bad, but the game and the gameplay as whole sucks. Doesn't feel real doesn't act real. Just thinking about the choppers. I didn't get the impression about them acting as real choppers, they just pop up like toy's.
No man, strategy games are stuck to the 90's and not much have changed.

From what I know about the game (Playing beta, marketing, website, etc...) it is not about going for as much realism as possible but to create a fun tactical, balanced team-game for up to 16 players.

And as far as I can tell they did succeed. In my personal opinion anyone who does not like the game does not like the type of game it is.

I like the game a lot, I always hated the base building of other strategy games becuase I always went overboard with the defences. But with this I have no choice other than offence.

Now I just am waiting for a good realism mod and this will be even more fun!

I also hugely dislike the base building aspect of RTS's but this kind of game isn't the solution either. Its like you get rewarded by throwing your units into the fray. There is no incentive to keep them alive. It also doesn't help that choppers and fast vehicles can cross most of the maps in less then 30 secs.

Yea, I wish there was more of a benefit for keeping your troops alive than just rank, and when an Infantry squad makes a suprise attack on another Infantry squad, the enemy squad should be screwed, and have almost no chance of winning.

Also, I wonder how big the maps can get for that game, I would love to see some huge player made maps or official maps come out.

I had high hopes for this game until I saw the in game videos of it and then...bleh..

well this game reinvented RTS, its now Real Time Spam - couse theres no strategy here at all... and gameplay is turned into global SPAM with anything you have.

Maybe that maps are like 10 times larger, than there will be room for some strategy and tactics.

frankly, Massive has never made good RTS so far... they shud try doing something else instead.
