Hahaha, that mission have been giving everyone a chill :-P

It's not that bad if you just rush through it.

I did that the 2. and 3. time i had to do it. It is a few yearh back though

Now what really freaks me is BioShock.. Can't even get 15 min into the game ^^

According to the devs of WAR, it should be possible to PvP right off the bat, starting with lvl 1.

I'm excited about WAR :-)

I know the feeling! I even get scared by semi-scary movies xD

So i just stick to RTS and the occasionally action RPG/RPG in general :-P

And the shooters i play are always in the less/not scary section.

I think the most scary FPS i played to the end is PREY ^_^

Im most excited about Warhammer Online.

And while waiting i just want to play Universe at War :-D

You practice! :) As said before, practice with some friends, its more fun and you all get better.

In some games you will not get better by watching replays or reading strategy guides. Some games are so versitile that nothing can be predicted. Therefore learn by failing.

Many rts games vary, however theirs usually some very basic general tactics u can use:

Collecters-
Any game were u collect resources, always build a large number of units
to collect them. Depending on the game and population limit try to have
5-10 collecters of each resource type (or more if your playing
something like starcraft)

Troops vs Buildings - 90% of the games, building a larger army is more effective than building defensive buildings.

Abilities- Many troops have special abilities. Learning the best time to use these can often turn the tide of battle.

Hot
Keys+ Number Grouping - Try to memorize these, they'll make building
army's and bases much faster, and easier when u learn them. Number
grouping is done by clicking multiple units, holding shift and pressing
a number. When u press the said number, every grouped unit still alive
well be selected. Useful not only for when ur attacking with a large
army, but also wen u need to build troops and micromanage a battle.

3 Play types:
Rush
Boom
Turtle
Rush
players are pretty self explanatory, build a army asap and invade,
ending the game quickly, and before they have time to build proper
defence.
Boom build up their technology asap. They'll build a
variety of defense and tech, eventually unleashing the strongest troops
in the game.
Turtle these players absolutely suck as teammates. They
build heavy defence waiting for an enemy attack. How they win is yet to
be discovered.

Ill agree with the first part and the add to your playing method:

My experience tells me it is best to mix the three, start by putting some pressure on you opponent, attack with a small force to force him into spending extra resources on defence.

At the same time, building some base defence can save your arse if you get caught with your pants down.

And the booming thing is of course what you do in the mean time. :)

Definitely c&c 3 :) sc is fun, the first half hour or so, then it simply become dead boring.

C&c 3 just delivers hours of fun. There is nothing as exiting as when 20 minutes into a game you hear the following "A nuclear launch has been detected" and its is not you own ^.^

c&c 3 i fast paced rpg action, plain fun and excitement
