What do you think is the best RTS game that is coming soon? I know dawn of war 2 hasn't been offically announced yet but I went to Soulstrom dev chat yesterday, and Relic dropped a lot of hints towards DOW 2. :D So it's announcement is coming soon(like in July.)

Dawn of War 2, no question.

Dawn of War is in my opinion the greatest RTS ever made, and CoH shows that Relic builds upon what came before in a fairly significant way. DoW2 should be spectacular.

World Shift? I think I'll look this up...(but if it's not that cool, then I'll come back saying "Switch this with Empire: Total War!!!)

Anyone think EndWar is going to be terrible? I mean, it's built for consoles first...a God Damn RTS, that is built for consoles...FIRST...Ubisoft, that is treading on Hollowed Ground right there... Same with Halo Wars. The reason I say this is not because I'm some Fanboy, but because -

Maps are going to be TINY, probably not many units, and it will be an incredibly "simple" game that even though it's got the cool voice commands thing, I doubt will live up to todays RTS games.

Anyway, it's a tie between Starcraft or DoW 2, but I think I'll pick DoW 2.

Alright so I just checked out World Shift and, it looks very cool, it's on my tracked list now. I'll take DoW 2 or SC 2 anyday though.

Worldshift should be a good RTS game. But nothing can stop DOW 2 using COH engine with Tyranids.

I'm glad we think alike. Seriously, Big Rigs was so good it almost seemed like a Tom Clancey.

from that list its got to be starcraft2 for me, I think dow2 is so far away yet but hopefully that will be great game when they turn on the hype engine.. Hopefully World Shift will be the dark horse among them being a new IP and new ish company

also looking forward to empire I would rank that above End War my self.As for Red Alert I remember the first one and was a good game, so i'll probally at least give the demo a try

I voted for Starcraft 2 because I enjoyed the first game alot. and I have faith in Blizzard to create a great game. most of the rts games i have played recently, like company of heros have been pretty good. so I figure Starcraft 2 will be my next rts.

Starcraft II could really go either way. Blizzard is going to need a lot of development time for it to reach its full potential, which probably means a 2009 release date.

I read it, and still think RA3 will suck. Same thing with Crysis; you heard so much about it, all the graphics and gameplay, and when it came out, it just didnt fulfill promises. Same with WorldShift preview, it sounds awesome, co-op dungeon raiding RTS - and yet, I have strong faith that it will come out mediocre. RA3.. Well, you look like a super fanboy, so cant argue with you or even have a good convo.

Startcraft II, probaly, unless DoW2 has Tyranids, but Ive played DoW so much Im sick of the W40K universe for now, a man can ony fight the relentless green oceans of orks for so long before the insanity of the warp begins to call to him.....errr....so yeah Im looking forward to Starcraft II more than Dow2 right now, sucks that its still a year or so away.

I think it needs to be pointed out that StarCraft 2 or DoW 2 likely won't be "Coming Soon". I know what the point of the thread is, but its likely we wont see either game, assuming DoW2 even exists, until 2009 at the absolute earliest. And even then I really won't be surprised if we have to wait to 2010 to see StarCraft 2. Besides all that, i have to much trust in Blizzard to vote for anything else besides SC2. I also trust that Relic would do a fine job with DoW2, but SC will still be the better game.

I may be a super fanboy, but I at least have the balls to admit when one of the games In a series I love sucks. Like the new 'Tiberium' FPS, its going to suck, I know it. But on the bright side of RA3, there gonna be holding a Beta, meaning the balance will be more fleshed out on release :D

on a side note, I quite enjoyed Crysis >.>

Starcraft 2 by far. Red Alert 3 will be worth buying and I love EA games, but I will definitely play SC2 a lot more.

Red Alert 3 video tomorrow! Link

Dawn of War 2, followed by Red Alert 3, followed by Starcraft 2. I admittedly haven't looked into Worldshift a lot yet, though it is on my tracked list, and I couldn't care less about End War.

Starcraft 2, I CANNOT wait for what kind of thing blizzard does with the toolset they will give us. That's the great thing about blizzards RTS's, they usually have fun and easy to figure out toolset which buff's the multiplayer community like crazy. I can't wait to make maps. :D

I actually agree with this crazy statement, at least I thought I was crazy for thinking it. The Dawn of War games deserve a lot more credit than what get, and in modern times, is probably the best Franchise in RTS gaming out there. Yeah, by saying that it doesn't mean I'm not gonna love Starcraft, but it has a lot to catch up on. Relic's been dishing out happiness consistently for a long time.

With Soulstorm coming out I believe next week, the series is on fire, and then eventually DoW2, who could complain? This looks like it's going to be yet another great year for RTS's in general. Josh (forget his last name) from Relic was on GFW Radio last week and stated that another Comany of Heroes is in the works, but couldn't go into details. A modern based RTS in the vein of CoD4's world? That would be simply amazing.

I played Worldshift last week, it wasn't bad at all. They have a beta sign up over at Fileplanet.

BTW, how could endwar get any votes at all? That shows there are a few trolling the PC forums as usual.

Dawn of War 2 is the forthcoming RTS God.

Starcraft? Pssh. Looks like old Starcraft with new graphics and some different units. Hooray?

It's a toss up, for me, between SC 2 and DoW 2. I think DoW just pips it. Anyway, if they have 'nids, you can have a marine, 'nid and Eldar three way and pretend it's SC :p

Oversimplifications are fun.

But yeah, Starcraft II by a mile. As much as I respect Relic and their ability to pump out high quality RTS games, their community support (Tournaments, proper mod support, events) is barely there and their ability to balance their games is lacking.
