While the Soviet missions wasn't that good, the Allied one was LEGION, and would have been significately more LEGION with the co-op. So yeah definitely getting dis shit.

Isn't the whole point of a demo to try the game before buying the game so you won't be disappointed?  (And saving money too...)

Perhaps, but everyone here should know already that that Docta is diehard C&C fanboy.

I still really don't get how econ works. I mean you try two prospectors one ref and it only slows down things. Wouldn't that mean that in MP you're capped at a certain income rate until you expand? Still, the game actually looks pretty decent. Micro friendly units and loads of unit functionality that made C&C3 fun. I'll probably be picking it up but not very soon.

sorry i stopped playing RA3 with you defcon, i got a 360 the day GoW2 came out and i been making love to my sexbox every since. i havent played a single game on my pc since then.

I kinda quit playing too, but only because of Left 4 Dead.

I just tried a 2 vs 2 easy bot skirmish, and got obliterated.

..Getting used to the strange build structure/units of the Empire is my excuse for that.
Those AA walkers that transform into helicopters are awesome.

I think thats the point, your econ is limited so you can't play s a rusher, building a huge econ, and them spamming units for what remains of the 20 minute game.  Personally, I like that, sick of going online only to get rushed within the first 5 minutes, no fun at all, rather have a 3 hour game where I lose, then a 15 minute one where i win.

I like the idea of making major focuses on econ not because of all-ins or rushing (even though I don't have a problem with that either) is that if you get rushed and have a prospector or two taken out your entire econ isn't at a standstill. Like C&C3 you have have 6 harvs, get 4 taken out but still keep yourself in the game with 2. Also if you have the ability to go for a strong econ, it encourages good scouting to make sure that your opponent is going for heavy econ/fast tech as well so you don't get caught with your pants down.

This way around it encourages playing defensivly as well as offensivly, meaning you can cripple an enemy by taking out his harvesters, and use that tactically, forcing him to commit some forces to defending them.  Maybe its jsut my wishful thinking for a more strategic system.

And Snake,

I know, I've played alot of RTS online, and it never fails to disappoint me   But the few games I have played where the games didn't boil down to tht were among my most satisfying.
