Ooohh I've actually played the demo I belive for your game? It was really fun tbh I had a blast which wasn't what I was expecting from just downloading a random demo the customisation elements where a nice touch too I think the only real suggestion would be a way of making the clones if I remember right? Better in melee combat like an armour boost with a Melee weapon equipped or just more damage or even a retreat feature when on low health I think that's the only thing that was in any was not great from me playing so well done for crafting such a great game
Hey your game is looking great! Just don’t forget players need to manage all your systems. Good default hotkeys that blend seemlessly with your gameplay could be the difference between a player staying or leaving. Making sure your have fully customizable hotkeys and different profiles as well as separate hotkeys groups for each faction (think sc2) is crucial. The difference between playing sc2 with my custom setup and without is night and day. Also in skeptical about the XP towers and random creeps guarding them. Obviously I’d need to play your game first but they don’t feel like natural extensions like having your tech tl resources collected out on the map (a simple artful change which is already paying dividends from the games I’ve seen). Good luck on your journey! The new galactic mode looks really cool like something I’d play alot of!

The premise and graphics. I dunno they really piqued my interest. I wish more people would go back to old school graphics. AoE2 DE and BW remastered are two of the best looking RTS games out right now. Nailing an old school look can net a game which is infinitely easier to read thanks to the contrast between textures and units (something which as gorgeous as Dust Front looks maybe an issue). Like it’s impossible not to understand immediately what’s going on in a game of brood war or aoe2!

This channel has been THE best channel I've found on this site. I never knew there was somebody who was so eager to cover the upcoming RTS titles and a genuine thank you for mentioning about the sales, especially with Army Men RTS (a personal favorite of mine). You really do wonders covering the various games, showing off teases and best of all including discounts and sales to intriguing titles of game that still are noteworthy of attention. PS - I would REALLY recommend bringing attention towards ATTACK ON TOYS. Its the old-school Army Men game but you are able to build bases, tanks, infantry and even jump into various vehicles to attack the enemy forces. There is a TON of mod support and even other enemy factions and even robots you can build as well. I could go on about it more, but what I love the most about it is they're still adding to the game AND its incredibly cheap to pick-up. I cannot recommend it enough as both of a throwback, but a genuinely fun and wild game that works so smoothly.
Hello my friend and thank you from the bottom of my heart for such a nice comment and feedback. I am supper happy to see more gamers like you follow my channel and enjoy my videos.

"Perimeter" and "Perimeter: Emperor's Testament". Played them both when i was a kid. Those 2 games have a kind of unique approach towards the RTS genre. You are in control of a dimension jumping city, trying to escape something called the "scourge" and find a way back to the original Earth. Scourge follows your city everywhere it goes. The 2 main systems at work are terraforming and "nanomorphing" aka making a large unit by merging together many smaller units, all of which are consisting of nanobots. The terraforming comes into play when you are trying to make energy and use the "perimeter" shield system. The ground needs to be perfect to make full use of the energy generation and the make sure the shield is at full size. For 0.79EUR, it's worth a try in my opinion.
Hi and thx for sharing your memory of it. Mine is definitely not that good. I don't think I was able to get far back then in it, and only tried a bit years later. Good to see such RTS fans like yourself in my comment section! BTW which of these newer games looks good to you?

@@perafilozof Truth be told, I'm in a bit of a pout right now. I feel betrayed by Homeworld 3. So far, I've been jumping between the ol' faithful of League of Legends, Helldivers 2 and co-operative play with a buddy in Total Warhammer 3. I did pick up Songs of Syx again recently. What about you? Aside from all the upcoming demos.
I was less and less interested in HW3 after each of its demos as I saw where it was going. So I am just happy we got 3 good games and 1 remaster out of it. There was also the mobile one they shut down, and there is like a VR one too. When I want to relax I play a few minutes of Diablo 2: R, when I want a challenge I play a match in Beyond all Reason, but I manage to play like once a week with all the games I test, play, record, read on and so on to prepare videos. I should really hire some help...
1 - DORF , Dying breed, dust front, zerospace & BAR getting news are always welcome; need check BAR however, being ages since I check that game ( hope they made good improvements. I really wish dust front can get a coop or multiplayer, those units and visuals looks great. ^^ 2 - Did fertile crescent solve their balance issues? I enjoy how simple and cozy that game is but the balance on units wherer very wacky ( example archers beating every other unit type). 3 - I did enjoy tatical warfare but I hope the devs found a way to balance the game, the alpha build show it need alot of work. A great video. ^^
Thank you for the feedback and comment! I am glad to hear that. 2. I am not sure myself, have yet to play it more. 3. They are working on multiple builds and they have a loot of good ideas, just need to take more time to realize them properly.
If you want footage for featuring Front Edge in future videos, they actually have a youtube dev channel of sorts, it's called CatsWhoPlay Official, and the russian title of the game, which will net you plenty of gameplay and dev footage, is "Передний край"

Heroes of Annihilated Empires is surprisingly good. Though I didn't like the Hero gameplay too much in the campaign, I eventually switched to the RTS mode in Skirmish mode and that was exactly right for me. In terms of scale it's essentially a basic RTS with higher numbers of units plus some interesting quirks. The factions are well balanced and have enough interesting differences, though two of the factions are more developed than the other two. Edit: Perimeter is another good recommendation. The campaign can be hard at times and doesn't always explain features well, but the story is interesting, the soundtrack good, the scenarioes often have to be approached in new ways and the limited army supply also forces creative solutions as some units take way more supply than others.
Hi! I am glad to see another old school player here! I agree with your descriptions. I too first found the campaign in HoAE too hard and the skirmish just right. Perimeter was so strange, but in a good way. Have you found anything similar to play over the years?

Besides Halo Wars 😐 'Age of Mythology Retold' seems to be the ONLY PC RTS that has full controller support. *Hand held* Gaming PCs are growing in popularity and maybe come the major way many people play games. PC RTS needs to adapt it. It's not circa 1997 anymore.
CTA Gates of Hell is similar to Men Of War but the game is slower paced and more realistic, the best part is you can go into first person for each unit and control them manually. Great game overall.

An amazing video full of big surprise... Lots to make us drool ! Gosh, I hope Dust Front devs will consider multiplayer, not holding my breath but it would be cool. Tempest Rising and Age of Mythology retold are definitely going to put RTS back on the table for bigger companies... I still hope Dark Reign and Submarine Titans will find someone who will agree to remaster them. (happy birthday to your son !)
@@perafilozof Right on ! Misfires is exactly what 2024 feels like until now.

From what I hear, the Front Edge according to Cats Who Play is a free testbed for a future major project. Fingers crossed that it works out for them. They have a very nice approach to the realtime tactic genre.
@@perafilozof Here are their main claims about Front Edge: A real-time strategy game in a modern setting with a high degree of realism. - The game gives players the opportunity to fight each other (in 1vs1, 2vs1 and 2vs2 modes), or in Skirmish mode with a computer opponent. - Initially two armies are available in the game, these are RF and the US, in the future it is possible to add other armies. - The battle on the maps is for key points, the task of players at the end of the match time to control more key points on the map. In case of capturing all points by one of the players (one of the teams) the match ends prematurely. - Players can call for reinforcements during the game using Team Points (CP) accumulated over time. - Initially, players have access to standard sets of vehicles and infantry, but in the future players can get unique squads and vehicles that can move from battle to battle, gaining experience and being able to install and use various improvements and tactics. - The game will initially contain only the basic gameplay of general military combat, which will be further actively developed with the addition of new mechanisms actively appearing now in real life (e.g. copters that can drop stuff, FРV drones, etc.). - The game is considered as a basic platform that will be further developed with the addition of mechanics, new types of equipment, battle tactics, maps. - It is planned to be a completely open process of development/development of the game, with maximum involvement of players and sympathizers. - In the future, the game can serve as a base for creating single-player campaigns on various current and anticipated conflicts. At the moment the game can be downloaded from the Russian version of the Cats Who Play website for free www.catswhoplay.com/new/index.php/ru/igry/front-edge

Any successor to Ground Control 2?

I'm a bit sad, that Petroglyph lost the balls to go big and seem like they're going with the safe options lately. Universe at war was one of the more interesting titles I've played and it would deserve another try at its interesting gameplay ideas.

yess universe at war was one of the best but unjustly forgotten
"Perimeter" and "Perimeter: Emperor's Testament". Played them both when i was a kid. Those 2 games have a kind of unique approach towards the RTS genre. You are in control of a dimension jumping city, trying to escape something called the "scourge" and find a way back to the original Earth. Scourge follows your city everywhere it goes. The 2 main systems at work are terraforming and "nanomorphing" aka making a large unit by merging together many smaller units, all of which are consisting of nanobots. The terraforming comes into play when you are trying to make energy and use the "perimeter" shield system. The ground needs to be perfect to make full use of the energy generation and the make sure the shield is at full size. For 0.79EUR, it's worth a try in my opinion.
Hi and thx for sharing your memory of it. Mine is definitely not that good. I don't think I was able to get far back then in it, and only tried a bit years later. Good to see such RTS fans like yourself in my comment section! BTW which of these newer games looks good to you?

@@perafilozof Truth be told, I'm in a bit of a pout right now. I feel betrayed by Homeworld 3. So far, I've been jumping between the ol' faithful of League of Legends, Helldivers 2 and co-operative play with a buddy in Total Warhammer 3. I did pick up Songs of Syx again recently.
What about you? Aside from all the upcoming demos.
I was less and less interested in HW3 after each of its demos as I saw where it was going. So I am just happy we got 3 good games and 1 remaster out of it. There was also the mobile one they shut down, and there is like a VR one too.
When I want to relax I play a few minutes of Diablo 2: R, when I want a challenge I play a match in Beyond all Reason, but I manage to play like once a week with all the games I test, play, record, read on and so on to prepare videos. I should really hire some help...
1 - DORF , Dying breed, dust front, zerospace & BAR getting news are always welcome; need check BAR however, being ages since I check that game ( hope they made good improvements.
I really wish dust front can get a coop or multiplayer, those units and visuals looks great. ^^
2 - Did fertile crescent solve their balance issues? I enjoy how simple and cozy that game is but the balance on units wherer very wacky ( example archers beating every other unit type).
3 - I did enjoy tatical warfare but I hope the devs found a way to balance the game, the alpha build show it need alot of work.
A great video. ^^
Thank you for the feedback and comment! I am glad to hear that. 2. I am not sure myself, have yet to play it more. 3. They are working on multiple builds and they have a loot of good ideas, just need to take more time to realize them properly.

Heroes of Annihilated Empires is surprisingly good. Though I didn't like the Hero gameplay too much in the campaign, I eventually switched to the RTS mode in Skirmish mode and that was exactly right for me. In terms of scale it's essentially a basic RTS with higher numbers of units plus some interesting quirks. The factions are well balanced and have enough interesting differences, though two of the factions are more developed than the other two.
Edit: Perimeter is another good recommendation. The campaign can be hard at times and doesn't always explain features well, but the story is interesting, the soundtrack good, the scenarioes often have to be approached in new ways and the limited army supply also forces creative solutions as some units take way more supply than others.
Hi! I am glad to see another old school player here! I agree with your descriptions. I too first found the campaign in HoAE too hard and the skirmish just right. Perimeter was so strange, but in a good way. Have you found anything similar to play over the years?

Besides Halo Wars 😐 'Age of Mythology Retold' seems to be the ONLY PC RTS that has full controller support. *Hand held* Gaming PCs are growing in popularity and maybe come the major way many people play games. PC RTS needs to adapt it. It's not circa 1997 anymore.

Dang, D.O.R.F. looks awesome
Indeed it does! Thx for the comment! What are you playing these days?
CTA Gates of Hell is similar to Men Of War but the game is slower paced and more realistic, the best part is you can go into first person for each unit and control them manually. Great game overall.

- The game gives players the opportunity to fight each other (in 1vs1, 2vs1 and 2vs2 modes), or in Skirmish mode with a computer opponent.
- Initially two armies are available in the game, these are RF and the US, in the future it is possible to add other armies.
- The battle on the maps is for key points, the task of players at the end of the match time to control more key points on the map. In case of capturing all points by one of the players (one of the teams) the match ends prematurely.
- Players can call for reinforcements during the game using Team Points (CP) accumulated over time.
- Initially, players have access to standard sets of vehicles and infantry, but in the future players can get unique squads and vehicles that can move from battle to battle, gaining experience and being able to install and use various improvements and tactics.
- The game will initially contain only the basic gameplay of general military combat, which will be further actively developed with the addition of new mechanisms actively appearing now in real life (e.g. copters that can drop stuff, FРV drones, etc.).
- The game is considered as a basic platform that will be further developed with the addition of mechanics, new types of equipment, battle tactics, maps.
- It is planned to be a completely open process of development/development of the game, with maximum involvement of players and sympathizers.
- In the future, the game can serve as a base for creating single-player campaigns on various current and anticipated conflicts.
At the moment the game can be downloaded from the Russian version of the Cats Who Play website for free

The language barrier is a problem for me.... Too bad I did ever get good at the language. Thank you for all the extra info!
Cossacks? That is a game ip I have not heard about in ages. I remeber playing the first game and the second game, didn't know there was a 3rd one.
Yeah, indeed. And did you play American Conquest? Thx for the comment! You can see more new and upcoming games like these on my playlist here: ruclips.net/p/PLRYGjguAn0CFpLi_MlTb6PIgLkXQM632Y
@@perafilozof I most have missed that game. I looked it up, it came out in 2002, that is Morrowind ages, But an RTS I played at the time, I did start to think about the Earth 2150 game. Have you played the Earth 21 games? There are like 3 of them, Earth 2140, Earth 2150 and the last one was Earth 2160.
Hi, yes, I played them all. Some I liked far more than others. I don't think we will ever see any developer go that deep into making such a game again.
great list here. i'm a huge fan of early access / beta games. who cares if the games have bugs, you are a part of the development of a vision.
Thank you my fellow RTS fan! I am glad to hear that. Exactly my thoughts on the topic. You can see more of my videos like this one here on this playlist : ruclips.net/p/PLRYGjguAn0CETNi54IC0YsVNFtTdd6Ccc
me watching front edge screenshots: "damn, that looks like syrian warfare and terminartor dark fate defiance..." "oh well"

Red alert 2 couldve been remaked into something like that
Hello and thank you for sharing your thoughts. I do agree D.O.R.F. has massive potential
I'm more of an RTT player, but Dust Front and Front Edge look very interesting.
Hi and thanks for that comment. It is good to know showing RTT games on this list was a good call.
Ty love rts games and love the updates.
Aww, thank you for those kind words! I love the genre and all you RTS fans right back. Which one did you find most interesting?
