This game is over 13 years old. There's far better ones out there now with more dynamic game mechanics, better graphics, and better story lines. Not to mention more players.
This game is really not that good this day in age. The only reason I still play it from time to time is because I kick some serious \"***\" at it. |
Games with more dynamic game mechanics, better graphics and more players, yes I agree with you here. But with better storylines, no there is not another RTS with better storyline than Book Of Darien and Iron Plague campaigns and there is not a better and more detailed world than Darien.
As for playing because you kick some serious butts here, I just pity you, Hatebreeder, because I play it just for the fun, while you play just for the win.
I don't know if you have noticed it, but what you have just mentioned for playing TAK because you win means that you wouldn't play if you lose on it, so Landherr was right about you for living TAK when you got your butt kicked by him! I fell sorry for you, Hatebreeder... |

Lol let's not take things serious... I did and I just wasted my time, although I proved that TDs and 6t6s and anyone else aren't different than the noobs they owned - few people don't quit when they lose. Hatebreeder was still playing once in a while when I was still playing many months ago, and the only reason I disrespected him is because he used to be cocky and would disrespect me too lol. Maybe he lacks a bit of speed (no big deal) but he definitely knows a lot about TA:K and few people from any time can take him on especially in spread mana maps.
Arthan people play for different reasons, kicking \"***\" is fun too lol. Maybe we're all trying to sound superior, is it with skills, is it with being smart (I just play for fun so I'm better than everyone huhu!), doesn't matter lol.
And Spagg I saw that video 1st time in my TA:K cd and it's on youtube too I think |

Ok then, I will just have fun with Hatebreeder and everyone else, like I did before. About Spagg's video, yes I have saw it on youtube about a year ago:

Everyone can have his/her opinion about Total Annihilation: Kingdoms. However, when someone use his/her arguments about why TA:K is bad, then I will answer by writing my arguments now and I usually write a lot, lmao!
Anyway, long live TAK!

If you aren't getting to higher tech levels if you want to then you aren't doing MP RTS right. I'm not quick enough anymore, but in the original days of the Warcraft RTS there were two ways the game evolved. You either won or lost to a "Rush" or you held of were held off and then you started teching. So yes, most games start with a rush attack. I have no reason not to build say 10 zealots in SC2 as an example and send them at your workers. If you can't defend that then you lose and I move on. However while those Zealots are attacking your workers, I'm busy teching to the next level so that when you try your counter attack my guys are already stronger and ready to mow over you and finish you off. Watch some very high level SC2 footage, it always gets to air battle.
I know what you mean but I guess I am not quick enough in the rush portion. I like 'leveled' up techs. Typically in a mp game somebody takes infantry and another teammate air (if more than 1v1). I can pretty much fly through all the campaugns w/o really much diff but struggle mightily in mp - probably not enough macro and group commands. I am pretty sure I understand and have watched both my replay of opponents and higher level games but executing - well that is something else. For the most part 'quantity beats quality' in mp of RTS such as SC2 - 40 zealots at level 1 everything beats 15 highly leveled up ones practically all the time. Also it seems like everything I like to do gets gimped in every update - units weakened , range reduced, build time increased etc. It is like the developer says- 'Aha JK is starting to get it -let's change the rules and f' him up' :eyecrazy
That is why I love Total Annihilation and TA:kingdoms - I can rocj the house in those two - they are the exception and I can rule those 2, |
