Why does nobody know how to make an rts? Why is it always starcraft over and over and over. Why not make a total annihilation clone? A company of heroes clone? An age of empires or empire earth clone? Command and conquer? No. The rts gamers yearn for ranked ladder. We must espurt again it’ll definitely work this time.
SHUT UP ABOUT BLIZZARD SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT THE FUCK UP THEIR GAMES ARE SHIT SHUTUP SHUTTUUUPPPP 
RTS is by far my most favourite genre and dawn of war was absolute crack for me how is nobody able to make 1 good release?
Halo wars 2 is an unsung diamond its campaign is better than mainline halo
There was a company of heroes clone a while ago called iron harvest. It was ok, I liked it better than company of heroes,
Unfortunately it surfers from the same issues of poor camera angles and unit controls.
As for rts I have recently been playing empires of the undergrowth, it plays like a sort of dungeon keeper game. Highly recommend that one.
That looks really good thanks for the rec!
