The oh so traditional Tiberium Wars?

The super fast World in Conflict?

The new and improved COH:Opposing Fronts?

Or do you have a soft spot for the up and coming Universe at War?

you can also include any old titles that you liked.

i love Dawn of War: Dark Crusade because it involves all the races, and the necrons freaking kick arse. Also the new units are pretty wicked.

Company of Heroes. The most intense RTS ive ever played.. and i've played a LOT (started with Dune2). The gameplay is new and refreshing, there are some great tactics.. flanking actually means something in this RTS game. The maps, the units, the look and feel of the game. Being able to zoom down and actually have the bullets whizzing past your head as though your playing an FPS.. the detail.. COH is an experience which shouldn't be missed. If your an RTS game or a WW2 fan its definatly worth looking at.

I love World in Conflict. Constant action, no base-building or resourcegathering. You can jump in a game without really having to worry about your ranking score if you loose, since rank is determined by individual performance and not wins and losses. I'm still yet to run into any annoying people, this is after playing 130 online games, and finally the game has very good support from the developers compared to other RTS I've played like Generals and C&C3, but that might just be because it's EA, I guess.

Age of Empires. I spent many years playing that game online. It's all about speed, and strategy. You have to know just how much you want to create, and still save your resources for emergencies and things like that. And catching enemies by surprise, or sneaking around the front of their base and attacking them from the rear and things like that, make for great times.

I've always loved AoE, but really never caught onto AoE II or 3 as far as online. They just didn't interest me to play them competitively as much as the first one did.

Loved the units in Red Alert 2.

Sometimes fire up Warcraft 3 just to click on units.

Warcraft 3 suks, starcraft suks too. Civilisation 4 the best especially with its expansion which expands the length of the game, BTS. I think blizzard is one of the worst creaters in the world.

I am a oldschool RTS gamer. Grew up on games like warcraft 1, and red alert. I still love those games alot, but company of heroes and dawn of war are just games that have revolutionized the genre, and they are great IMO. They are so refreshing, and there is so much good gameplay to be had. Throw in the great visuals these two games have, and you have a RTS game that you will be enjoying for years to come. Old school or new school RTS gamer you owe it to yourself to check out Dawn of War or Company of heroes.

Best RTS.

1. Total Annihilation- All of it. (but the add-ons won't play on most XP boxes)

2. Conquest: Frontier Wars- Best 2D-3D in space. Eats Star Trek: Armada 1&2 & Star Wars: Empire at War alive, in game play & map & terrain . Conquest 2: The Curium Uprising, got it!!!

3. Company of Heroes- i kill you i take your stuff.

4. Command and Conquer- All but Generals it retards the sea craft & missions the change too much in battle. (Rocket Bikes forever!!)

5. Earth 2160- free for all on building & make your own craft (good graphics, Earth 2140, 2150 sucked)

6. Star Wars: Empire at War- the space battles. (Forces of Corruption & the land battles suck)

7. Dungeon Keeper 2- Time to be bad.

8. Stronghold 1&2 Crusader- Time to get medieval on your ash.

9. (oops not real time) Final Liberation: Warhammer Epic 40,000- jest fun!

9. Warhammer 40k dawn of war- should be more like the table top or have less building resections.

10. MechCommander Gold & 2- i kill you i might get your stuff next mission.

11. Warcraft II & III- cute, pretty, colorful, magical.

12. Heritage of Kings: The Settlers (more of a sim city builder) (needs walls)

13. Majesty: The Fantasy Kingdom- it good too be King

14. Battle Realms- needs to have bigger maps, faster building, higher unit cap. (may-be Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties)

15. Star Trek: Armada 1&2- (bad graphics & map terrain)

# ? mmm. Supreme Commander- Total Annihilation plays better and faster.

Starcraft- Played it found it a bit silly, too surrealistic in graphics & play

Haven't been any great RTS games for a long time. The last great RTS game I've played is RoN. Dune 2 was also great, would like to see a good sequel to that one

I usually stay away from RTS games as i don't find them that interesting and i generally suck at them full stop. But i got given a copy of Rise of Nations for a christmas and really enjoyed it, i thought the game was amazingly good and entertaining for a genre i usually stay away from.

However i haven't played an RTS game since Rise of Nations, mainly because i dislike them and don't want to waste my money on one and find i dont enjoy it.

Same here....I love the entire Dawn of War series, particularly Dark Crusade.....but I find it interesting that no one has mentioned Supreme Commander as a favorite. I think that game is fantastic, but only when speaking of the online multi-player not the single player campaign.

Age of Empires 2 and StarCraft for me.

Rome: Total War isn't really a traditional RTS, but it's a hell of a strategy game.

Still love StarCraft. Command And Conquer 3 is surpisingly good, granted I think it can be a bit fast paced and usuaaly involves a lot of spamming.

Right now:

World In Conflict

CoH Opposing Fronts

Supreme Commander

Love each one - WiC for its rapid fun gameplay, CoH - cos its CoH, and Sup Com, cos of its massive scale and depth.

I really love Dawn of War-its so over the top.I just about lol when I first saw the orchs mech.(don't remember the name) grab a, marine and crack him in half and fling him aside. Also, the story is pretty interesting.

I just got Company of Heroes-I hope its as good as DOW.

Rise of Nations, it has incredible depth to its gameplay, but even I, who suck s at RTS games, can do very well around the medium difficulty. Plus, nuking someones capital has a certain satisfaction to it.

The expansion is as good as the orignal game.

Heck in many aspects better - because of the two campaigns.

And the two new armies are nothing short of amazing.

If anything its like a sequal. Terribly underrated on GS.
