Hi, this isn't a "vs" thread, so don't flame me. What do you think is Relic's best RTS game? Mine vote goes to Dawn of war. :)

HOmeworld. As far as I am concerned it was the greatest thing to happen to the RTS genre since Dune 2 (aka its creation).

So many RTSs are mp-focused nowadays and while homeworld had great multiplayer, it had one of the most compelling stories of ANY game I ever played.

Homeworld, most definately. The finest RTS ever crafted, and has the greatest story in an RTS, a game even, to date.
It's also one of the most epic games I've ever played, with a superb soundtrack.
Oh, and TheCrazed, they'll be answering to both of us. ;)

But they're all fantastic games.

Homeworld is the most groundbreaking.

Dawn of War is the most fun.

Company of Heroes is the most evolved.

Impossible Creatures is the weirdest.

Every Relic game has something very endearing about it. Relic makes awesome games, period.

My personal preference is Dawn of War, but picking out one outstanding Relic RTS is like picking out one particular gold bullion.

Because it's all gold.

I'd say Company of Heroes. Dawn of War is lacking and would probably get a 7.5 from me. Homeworld was a good game and all, but that's about it.

definately homeworld. it was the most revolutionary RTS of our time. All other games are just an evolution of today's RTS games. But Homeworld.... that's a different story

But those panzers can be easily taken out with artillery guns though.

That's wrong. If you know what you're doing all of them are fairly balanced, except for Strafing Runs, damn strafing runs.

A lot of CoH's popularity is probably its pretty graphics. With DoW2 looking so amazingly good, it will surely get the recognition it deserves.

CoH although I am hoping that DoW 2 will be a pleasant surprise and use the tactics and AI improvements in CoH and make the best looking and playing game yet.

I still play DoW every now and again, but CoH is the best.

I doubt he's played it. He was likely referring to the fact that most people don't even know about the game or that Relic made it.

Yeah, it was. You made all your units by combining different creatures' body parts/sections which affect the final unit's combat characteristics to make a bizarre-looking creature that acts as a standard unit (sort of like configuring your own units in Earth 2150 where you pick from the chassis and weapons a unit you're designing is going to have, and all that stuff). You then build those and use them for doing combat with your opponent.

Hmm ... tough choice. They're all great games. If I had to pick it would be Dawn of War. It's been on my harddrive since it was released.

Hi, this isn't a "vs" thread, so don't flame me. What do you think is Relic's best RTS game? Mine vote goes to Dawn of war. :)

gogators4life

Nice Thread, and a very Hard though

I definitely say the first three ones though Company of Heroes really Kicks A** of all those WW2 previous RTS games. Albeit all RTS can really no match to its Intense gameplay. :twisted:

My first and, well only game of Relic is Impossible Creatures,I bought it when I was about 12 years old or something, it was fun and had a pretty good story, but right now I'm trying to convince my parents to buy me the "Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - The Complete Edition" pack, so... Dawn of War gets my vote.
