This is not a good RTS
RTS is the one Army Men game released on PC that I never played until its release on GOG. I always assumed this would be the best one in the series, having been developed by Pandemic. Alas: having finished the campaign now I must say that this is one of the worst RTS games I've ever finished. First off: content-wise the game does not do the series justice. There's familiar characters and some dialogue in the style of other later Army Men games (e.g. Sarge's Heroes) but neither did the game make me laugh much nor did the developers use the setting for interesting stuff that other RTS titles can't do. It's just another Command & Conquer clone with some extra humour. The only meaningful difference is that all units leave behind puddles of plastic which can be harvested. And the campaign itself is just unimaginative. The real problem is that the game is a barely functional RTS. The unit behaviour is dreadful, with units almost never doing what they are supposed to, piling up on each other and sometimes downright refusing to execute a command. Orders that should take a few seconds to execute may take up to twenty and no amount of microing will help - as a matter of fact microing barely works due to these problems. There's also serious UI problems like only four numbered groups or the most useless minimap I've ever seen in an RTS. Also the units and buildings just aren't interesting. The developers failed to introduce unit types you haven't seen in the series before, there's basically only one faction that doesn't play very well and doesn't allow interesting tactics. A full base is set up in a matter of two or three minutes (minus some building upgrades). So it's really just a very dull and often frustrating RTS. Can't recommend it. For the record: I encountered no technical problems.
Hilft dir das weiter?
