RTS in development?

are there any promising Real Time Strategy games under development right now? preferably more stratetic ala Empire Earth/Age of Empires then tactical, but really anything at this point would be great. The last great ones i got were Battle For Middle Earth 2 and Company Of Heroes (and i know I'm a freak for not liking starcraft 1/2)

C&C 5 apparently. That guy who made Supreme Commander was making a fantasy RTS last I checked.

I like CoH and exp, WiC, C&C TW but not what comes after, also like Starcraft series, Shogun, AoE so I like all of the game settings but the game needs to be good.

Relic is announceing a new RTS this summer, after the CoHO 'experiment' people are speculating it will be Company of Heroes 2.

Other than that, a new Total War is confirmed to be in development, and of course SC: Heart of the Swarm.

All I really know of RTSish wise is just the Starcraft expansions, a new Total War game, and the new C&C that will be coming out.

I don't really have a particular setting I like. My favorite RTS are AOE original, Company of heroess, Rise of Nations. I also like Napoleon the most for multiplayer. I was pretty disapointed in Shogun. It felt really watered down tactically compared to Napoleon.

Don't really like Starcraft, it just seems like it's to much about resource hoarding and I kind of felt like it copied AOE in a futuristic setting. Though admittedly I haven't played it much. I bought the original a couple months before the second came out, and I didn't like it at all.

Hopefully there are some good looking RTS announced at E3. there aren't many good looking ones I can think of right now.

Men of War: Vietnam looks pretty sweet.PernicioEnigma

There's a cool looking game called Dawn of Fantasy coming out. I was really excited about it, but then I found out they're calling it an MMO. If this means it's pay to play and there's no skirmish mode, then I am no longer excited.

been playing C&C for decades now, so near-future/scifi/alt-history

I would say nothing before WW2 I like WW2 and beyond. After WW2 like a Vietnam RTS would be great, Modern to near Future is my favorite, Sci-fi/futuristic I like more than WW2... so it would be in order from like the most to like the least. 1.Modern to near future (which I don't even see an option for) 2.Sci-fi/futuristic 3.WWII I don't really care for fantasy or old historical rts (before WW2) but I would play a fanstay rts before I would a historical one more than likely.

iirc there was a Platoon (based off the movie) RTS that was supposed to be pretty decent; no building I think, just squad-based RTS

If it isn't like that, which every mmorts has ben thus far if i'm not mistaken, then I am almost not sure if it would even been an mmorts.

I would say it is doubtful, but that is just because I don't know any mmorts that is pay to play. And what mmorts really means is that you either have a persistent commander, there is a persistent map, or both. And all that means is that it is the standard skirmish game play, but that each match effects a world map or levels your commander.

Or your persistent city as in Age of Empires Online.

They way they have been going with the DoW II games I doubt it will be larger scale. I thought the scale of CoH was just right given the amount of micro management needed for each unit.

I wouldn't be surprised if its in a different time period though.

Honestly, if it was Company of Heroes 2, I'd divorce my wife, sell my car, buy food and drink for months, and become a hermit.
