User Rating: 10 | World in Conflict (Collector's Edition) PC
World in Conflict brings the third WW to life on your desktop. The Cold War between the NATO and the USSR on different locations, from America to Europe to USSR itself. Three factions to choose, USA, NATO & USSR. The story begins by invading Seattle. commanding some American soldiers against the invasion of USSR.

In the single player campaign you play as USA's Lieutenant, Parker. Commanding American and NATO units all over Europe and USA.

The game separates in 4 main roles (other than spectator in Multi-Player), Infantry, Air, Armor & Support. Each role has got its main units with some of out-of-role units.

In multi-player you either can be an artillery noob or an infantry killer. To win a game you should capture more command points than what the enemy has. As infantry you'll be macroing alot of things which doesn't make you get bored as fast as some other games. Macroing as infantry means to place your units in strategical positions. Such as a sniper to get the best line of fire range.
You have different units to choose as infantry, such as: anti-tank infantry, regular infantry, snipers, demoes & trucks to transporting your infantry to front lines fast since they are slow and weak. Transporting gives you a better mobility in the battlefield.

As Air, you can be a tank killer or an air chaser. You can get heavy choppers, medium choppers, scout choppers & transport choppers to help your inf to be transported around the battlefield.
As a tank killer, you get heavy choppers to get their tanks pwned. Surely you should be carfull of Anti Air flaks by dropping flares and trying to kill it. He still can smoke-screen himself. You may use a scout chopper along with your heavy choppers to help you out.

As Armor, which is my best role, there's many units to be chosen such as: heavy, medium, light tanks, AMP transports & armored transports.
Armor's main role is to kill Anti Airs to help air players to help you out clearing out tanks and buildings. Being a team-player is the main objective for armor players.

As Support, which is the most needed role, there's two options for you as support; being an artillery noob or being an Anti Air + Repairs pr0. You have many units in your list: Heavy artillery, medium artillery, heavy anti air, medium anti air, repair tank, demoes & Humvees.

In a game if you were facing any troubles.. you can use the tactical aid button. There's so many choices in TA menu to choose. Choose what fits for your situation with the lowest price. As much as you play, capture command points, repairs, kill & transport as much as you get more TA score.

The game is about team-playing, coordinating & cooperating with your team. You ask for what you need and give them what they need.

This game is the best RTS game ever.
