Title: Ruse - PC WW2 strategy/tactics FREE, public beta
Post by: Alcibiades on March 27, 2010, 12:25:18 AM
Only sharing this because I am so utterly addicted, and it's free right now, in Beta.

If you have steam it's one of the games you can try, and download or what ever. 

http://ruse.us.ubi.com/

Not sure if you can use it without steam, but I'm loving it, can't put it down.  Single player is lacking, only like 1 map, but multi-player is where the fun is at.

Back to the game :mmm:

Ubisoft in the head if you play their games. Since I won't buy any of their games risking getting addicted sounds dangerous.

Any way it's pretty good.  And I'm not buying it, just playing it while it's free.  Get it out of my system now.  :)

It's just typical RTS - grab resources, mass, rush and done.  No fun for me.  And I'm still enjoying Dark Crusade, best mp RTS ever imo.

Still RUSE is better than C&C4 though.

You guys are nuts.  And the 'ruses' are what break it from the normal 'build and rush' crap.

Well, 'ruses' are nice feature, but nothing really breaking from the usual crappy clickfest. I like money making though. Limited resources make it rather quick game.

 'Dark Crusade' the best RTS ever made?

Dawn of War: Dark Crusade, just so we're clear?

Absurd.  I had fun on it, but to insinuate its better than Starcraft, or even Warcraft 3..

It is. In MP. For me.  :showoff: Single player campaign in Starcraft is unbeaten so far though.

And you know what an opinion is, don't you?  :hug:

Warcraft 2 is the greatest online rts of all time.  Mainly because that was the last time I could rape everyone.  Too many people are good now.

I'll give this a try though

You are all wrong, DP less so tho. Age of Empires 2 : Age of King is the greatest RTS ever made.
