I don't remember exactly it's so long ago lol. I played rts, dune 2 when it first came out, I loved the idea of an interactive strategy game.
I played command and conquer series and they were good, sometimes I went LAN and dialup direct with friends.
Then I got aoe, we got the internet, nothing like playing vs random ppl from around the world. I played ROR, then got AOK and AOC, I loved the community and the competitive nature, bots don't compare.
I tried many other rts games around that time, and onwards, none ever compared for micro/macro/militart/eco. Most used lame pathing where they units would do a full circle when moving back instead of turning around.
Other games: War Craft Series were cartoony gfx and lame balance/strategy. Empire earth, had too much issues with age balance and eco. Total annihilation oversimplified its eco, removing alot of strategy. SC Sux and always will. RON sucked ass with its crappy pathing and zones of influence. AOM AOE3 sucked ass due to MS ditching ensemble and being greedy bastards who don't give a **** about player statisfaction.
AOE online go **** urself.
AOC forever.
