I can't believe Ubi ditched us on this one, considering it's an RTS title. I thought they were better than that. I guess they're just as bad as Crytek(BOO!!!). Anyone else felling left out?

I'm not much of an RTS fan but theres a few i like and Endwar was looking to be one of them. Oh well another port we may or may not see at some point?

LOL confused me.

Without any information or whatsoever why....?

Like is it said that it wont be out on PC? Is it not on Ubisoft's site for PC? Any confirmation? Official word?

Just that its not ready to preorder on PC doesnt mean it wont be out for PC. Maybe delayed for PC or something?

Meh, I was waiting for that one , I heard it had this voice command thing, which Ive never seen before so it was special to mee.

The concept is pretty interesting IMO. It could have looked a lot better if it was a PC exclusive. But noooooo.....they had to ignore us.

If we're gonna get it, then it'll probably some 6-9 months later after console users have grown tired of it already.

Yeah, I think that was the big gimmick for this game, I think I saw some footage/interview where someone said the whole game could be played just by voice command. Either way, the game didn't appeal to me that much, maybe because I'm not much of a RTS fan.

AWWW man the gaming industry has to stop all that crap giving us titles so late after consoles.

I was waiting for that game, Trust me , I have my EB games calendar in front of me and the juin them on that calendar is ENDWAR. A big ENDWAR calendar page just in front of me.

I thought it was coming out soon, at the same time of consoles...

yeah voice commands are just lame used for moving from one waypoint to another or something, it's not really something special on pcwhere you have a mouse which works many times better

Yeah I know im not a big fan either but it was just something that I've never experienced before, so I wanted to try it. Its more of a curiosity than the excitement to play it. I just like any kind of game but I just have to get hooked to it or else I just cant finish it.

I still remember that time when I was a fan of strategy games, but not anymore.

Link much?

Where have you read its not coming for PC?

As some have pointed out the voice thing is a bit of a gimmick when we have the mouse that works perfectly for the RTS.

I meant it's probably not coming out at the same time as the console versions. The official site didn't mention anything about a PC version while the PS3 and X360 logos are up front. That is strange because HAWX has a confirmed PC version and it is still not finished while Endwar already has a pre-order notice. Like i said it'll probably be about 6-9 months after the console versions.

You might want to say then in your original post that this is all speculation.

With games like Empire, Dawn of War 2 and StarCraft 2, I don't know why anyone would care about Endwar. Ubisoft has little or no experience with the RTS genre, and they're building a console game.

I hardly see why it being on the PC also could be considered a good thing.

I think some people were expecting it to be for PC first - Like myself. That is the controversy - but you raise a good point about Ubisoft and their lack of experience with the genre.

End War has always been planned as a console game at it's core.

Was in the xbox 360 beta. The game is awful. It's such a joke of an RTS, you're really not missing anything special.

It looks really innovative in bringing RTS to the consols, where the voice command feature probably will make it a lot easier to control the game. I dont see it as big thing for PC, where mouse control works perfect as it is, and the voice command probably just will be a gimmick. PC was not their main focus with this game, the main focus was to bring the RTS experience to the consols, and I think they gonna succed at that.

EndWar looks quite interesting to me, obviously after watching the latest gameplay videos it's clearly been designed for consoles, meaning you would probably have the best experience on the console rather than a PC port.

However, if you can afford a PC that would be capable of playing EndWar, there's no reason you can't fork out some money and buy a 360, which are cheap as chips now a days.

I saved up for all 3 platforms so that I wouldn't miss out on any exclusives. It payed off in the long run.

There is no such thing as having a better experience with an RTS on a console :| no matter how simple it is. + the game looks like it's nothing special, I didn't find anything interesting in the gameply vids, it's just a WiC with lame graphical effects and I don't like the HUD at all.

Agreed.And that HUD oh God that HUD.It occupies a huge portion of the screen.Plus it's consolized and from the gameplay vids it looks bad and from what I saw it plays bad.Plus that voice command thing is kinda...strange.Screaming at your units to move to point x is kinda...lame among other things.It's just trying to cash in on WiC's success.

It has to come out on PC, although I'm not particularly excited about it. You know... Two words! Ubisoft Shanghai! ... ? The team who brought us SC: Double Agent!

You're right to be concerned about that.

However, we so many RTS games that are so much better than this. Also when you have games like DoW 2, Empire Total War, Starcraft 2, coming out, who is gonna care about some console RTS made by Ubisoft.

exactly...I really don't care about this game...looks like a medicore RTS...

I'd rather wait for DoW2/SC2 or go buy Sins or Supcom...then care about this :lol:

i think i would rather input an attack command with a mouse (i.e. drag selection, right click to attack) than be yelling into a mic "group 3 attack waypoingt alpha" or whatever like ross "wooden" kemp in ultimate force
