I think it is World in Conflict - Soviet Assault. Get right into the action with real life units like the M1 Abrams tank and actually do damage, unlike the weak units in C&C ... - and the nuke actually does a lot of damage too, unlike the other crap RTSs.

World In Conflict? REALLY? I thought that game was pretty mediocre at best. Best RTS to date imo is either Starcraft or Supreme Commander.

BeCaUsE ThEiR StOrIeS ArE CoPiEd FrOm WaRHammEr!! lololol ... I kid. WC and SC's plots have nothing in common with Warhammer. Only idiots who know nothing about either game think they do :P The real reason no one mentions is because when talking about games, people usually think of the GAMEPLAY first.

Sure, but talking about "best" should mean best overall. Not that it would change anything tbh :D

World in Conflict was good. it was simple, and not that deep, but the action always kept you busy.
I'd say either Rome TotalWar or Starcraft. I'm trying to play Company of Heroes but it keeps crashing on the fourth mission. What a piece of...:x

It's a tie between Starcraft and Warcraft III.

1. Amazing storyline and campaign.

2. Massive and competitive online community.

3. Map editors that bring hundreds of hours of replayability through custom maps.

4. Extremely well balanced and distinct races.


No RTS released to date has been able to have all four of the above and perfect them to such an extent as SC and WC3.

Starcraft. However, anything post Brood War I don't really like from Blizzard (which is basically just Warcraft III and its expansion in regards to RTS's). I think Relic is really the top notch RTS developer now, every RTS they have made has been utterly fantastic (starting from Homeworld al the way to the recent Dawn of War II).

Supreme Commander. World In Conflict comes second.

C&Cs and Warcrafts are classics, but best? no way.

e: Relic makes awesome stuff too. oldschool, but with nice innovations.

Total Annihilation, Homeworld, Starcraft, SupCom, AoE II

JackBurton

i totally forgot about Homeworld and AoE II. gems. there's so much good RTSs that it's hard to decide...

e: Earth 2150 and Darwinia too.

Tiberium wars. Great graphics and cool units. But starcraft 2 is gonna trump it with good strategy.
