Universe at War is really underrated. It was a fun console RTS, with great cutscenes.
It truly war
Edit: aw damn it you edited it
I could never get the tutorial to work I was a really dumb kid back then
That game was my childhood, I remember owning multiple CDs because of how often i would play
at was
@@EagleGames95 _Waves hands_ You didn't see _anything._
I remember this game. It was clunky as hell, but there were some cool ideas and factions. The Hierarchy was probably the most unique faction I've played in a RTS, I don't think I've seen anything quite like it afterwards.
Also the opening cinematic was impressive for its time.
A pity you can't really get it anymore.
It definitely deserved a sequel. (like many greats *cries in generals*) My biggest woe with this game was that they didn't make humans a playable faction, besides a few tutorial missions.
@@lonksnek I think having a human faction would have ruined much of what made it a unique game. It's like practically the only sci-fi game in existence that has humans in it where they are not center stage, how about keeping it that way for once? Besides, the story made a point of how useless humans were compared to everyone else, it wouldn't have made sense for humanity to be able to 'fight back' in any meaningful fashion.
@@Arbaaltheundefeated The most annoying and overused trope of Sci-Fi is that us Humans are complete fodder against even the weakest of Aliens. When we could easily crush a faction like the Galactic Empire invading us. (if they don't use orbital bombardment of course)
@@2hotflavored666 What kind of delusions are you suffering from? Humans are the heroes and focus of attention for 98% of modern sci-fi, including the ones where we are presented as clear underdogs because it's just so we can "win against all odds". And just the fact that your second argument is pitting reality against fiction (and shitty hollywood fiction at that, not to mention the Galactic Empire is a human faction xD) shows how little point there is in me even trying to debate this with you I guess.
@@Arbaaltheundefeated No shit. Imagine watching/reading a Sci Fi where Humans *aren't* the main focus, that would be the most boring thing imaginable. Pitting fiction against reality, uh no fucking shit? I don't understand your point there, Sci Fi is fiction, big surprise there. And of course ironically, you're one of those people that despize mainstream Sci Fi like Star Wars, Star Trek, Halo ect. Simply because popular stuff is bad, non popular is good, reeks of the "i'M nOt lIkE tHe oThErS!!" mentality. Ironic, considering you hate the underdog Humanity (your own race) winning, yet you like the "underdogs" of the Sci Fi genre.
Man, I really hope they do an overhaul of planetary invasion. So much wasted potential for a vital operation in war. you could really make it work well with nemesis too, creating rebels or making your species in another empire's planet want to join you.
Yes so you could make invading more annoying. Rebelions too would make managing your empire a nightmere. I would rather see a primitive story pack or something
There is a mod for spy operation to start rebellion in Workshop
honestly Planetary invasion should be the hardest part in the game, Controlling the Space around it is relatively easy, any orbital targets can just be targeted by rocks, but actually taking a planet? that'd take a lot more effort especially a well built up one with Billions of people, it'll take a LONG time and a LOT of investment to not just Take, but also hold,
you need to rebuild infrastructure, set up a planetary governor, pacify or "Rectify" the population, hold-outs need to be rooted out and squashed, Basically it'd be XCOM 2 you're looking at as an invader,
Easy, just buy the Universe at War IP and smush the game into stellaris. When ya invade, you just boot up a match of UAW and play that. My plan is flawless, has zero downsides and i will not accept any criticism.
@@Llamazone-Prime either that, or just Mod XCOM to have a reverse Campaign where you play as the invader instead of the invaded
I have to say, reading all these comments from people that know this game makes me really happy.
I thought it would fade into obscurity considering that it was near impossible to play on PC without specific instructions.
Same, when i see people who can understand this memes - it feels amazing
I would buy multiple copies to give out to random people back in the day. Such was my love for it lol
I truly miss this game,I loved the world map mode and the 3 armies was so amazing
Meanwhile my space marines just keep wrecking, I enthralled species sent them to either be forcefully uplifted or into the meat grinder of war. A have had species relocated in proximity to the capitol, the more loyal and useful got more protections then the rubbish, A.I had full rights before my frist primitives.
i just picture the war of the worlds robots when invading primitives using the Mega Warform bots.
funny thing too i remember just observing primitives that were early space age while having some regular robot armies when a pop up said the primitives intercepted an observation craft.
later sent 2 armies in, they died.
sent more armies in waves of 2 per 15-40 days.
and i think like 1 primitive army was elite 2-3 were Veteran rank (never had one myself) and the rest were experienced ranks.
Yeah they earned the right to live.
till they blew themselves up, sadly.
Doesn't this mean you were basically playing the aliens in XCOM?
@@LeafseasonMagbag i've never actually played XCOM before. how is it?
@@takkarsasori8961 dude it's the fucking bomb, very fun and much more funner if you have a pc so you can download mods.
Personally I picture the mega warform as a pacific rim jaeger sized machine
@@takkarsasori8961 XCOM is the most silliest shit of all time please get it
altnerate title
when your try to do a all factions start primitive run, play as earth, but than you forgot to make a nearbye alien race primitive
how do i start as primitive?
@@nopurposeposting1548 Mod
Funniest part about humans in Universe at War Earth assault is when you use the mod that enable their faction in skirmish turns out they are actually very OP.
Probably because they were exempt from rigorous balance testing, due to being story-only.
This game was amazing. I remember playing a lot of skirmish matches as the Hierarchy and would get 3 science walkers with the radiation wave ability. It was fun seeing everything just MELT.
It was kinda saddening that there wasn't going to be a second game to the series. The campaign was pretty enjoyable and overall, the game was relatively unique for it's time. Still is today imo
I'm glad that i'm not alone with this opinion.... some people just want to see the world bur... i mean melt
Radiationnn Cascade!!!!
Honestly the aliens in the game are creative in their own ways, novus are the good robots who stop the genocidal and aggressive hierarchy who have tripods and massive mech walkers, and the Masari add more lore as their are the oldest race
Behold a man of culture. This game was awesome man. Orlok is the best character period.
General peasant is a close second.
I absolutely loved orlok not only as a character but as a unit aswell
@@kaijuking5971 That is what makes him so great on top of everything else.
For me it will always be Kamal Re'x. He was voiced by the same guy who did Captain Diomedes in Dawn of War II and I personally think he was even better as Kamal. But that aside, we have a running joke in my friend group that the natural tone and content of Kamal's dialogue somehow fit hilariously well with the voice of Ignignokt, the big green sassy mooninite from Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and we frequently quote them in opposite voices.
You cannot tell me with a straight face that picturing Kamal Re'x shouting "OPEN THE FLY TO YOUR SUNSHINE!" while he abducts your field inverters doesn't make you giggle.
Personally i liked Viktor the most... clod rational protective towards mirabel... adorable combo. And i just love that fucking sniper rifle.
Its a shame the dev's never got the proper amount of time to fully develop it, they were pushed to release it half a year to a year early so as a result the entire human faction got cut down into a story based mini faction/npc's. There was a mod a few years ago that restores the human faction as it was at the time of being simply buried in the game files and they are insanely over powered. They had a smart missile artillery system that when deployed 2 of them could take down one of the large 4 legged heavy armored walkers in about 10 seconds without it even getting in range of any of its weapon systems.
soo its a "star wars vs modern military" moment?
@@blackradar4175 Somewhat, the Humans in game are in effect on their own home world which it turns out Atlantis was a real thing, this is revealed in the 3rd campaign.
The start of the game takes place in Washington DC where the US military is trying to evacuate the president etc and during this mission its revealed that South America is basically gone, the Chinese and Russians have been devastated and the US along with a handful of others are holding out.
The alien antagonist faction that is invading was originally uplifted by the Atlanteans then went genocidal. During one of their genocides they wiped outa high teach race who created autonomous self sufficient reproducing robots/ai, this being the Novus who come to earth as part of a guerilla war campaign against the main enemy.
As a result the humans are stuck between 3 alien factions fighting each other in what turns into a 2 on 1 fight with the Atlanteans and Novus fighting the bad aliens. With the Humans allying the Novus and then the Atlanteans.
Earth is basically just a proxy conflict between various alien species.
The human faction it self if you unlock it with a mod is highly unbalanced, the Apache can insta kill any ground unit using hellfire missiles while walkers and super units can get bullied by large groups of marines and at infantry, their artillery system, I think it was going to be named the Basilisk or Hydra? It fires swarm of 12 missiles at once that within a few barrages can obliterate literally anything in the game.
An interesting note, half the planet gets effectively glassed in the last campaign. The antagonist have a super weapon and it fires 3 times during the campaign, glowing up all of western Europe the middle east and I think India? The entire focus at the end becomes eliminating this purifier weapon and then taking out the BBEG.
@@thirstyserpent1079 they burned my world, cant have shit in this galactic sector
I think the humans are rightfully weak in the original game, it doesn't make sense that a relatively primitive species would do so well against more advanced ones
@@keyboardt8276 Halo is a fine example, mankind was primitive compared to the Covenant
The instant I saw that opening shot of earth I went “no f^cking way this is universe at war’s opening.”
Absolutely loved that game, massive shame it didn’t get a sequel, it was really unique and well made. Especially the hierarchy faction and how resources were gathered.
But then the stone age primitives beat you because of a planet modifier
Remember Avatar? That.
Ooga booga is superior to plasma rifles. Change my mind
Neutron bombardment go fwoosh
:( don't remind me.
That’s when I crack the planet or use Armageddon bombardment.
I don't invade primitives. I role-playing the Reapers😁
Normally I don't, as I like observing their progress.
But my in my current game I'm semi-roleplaying the ethereals from XCOM, and have an early space age world in my territory. Started with quietly manipulating their ethics, then started the abductions with aggresive study. Soon it will be time to send in ground teams to "enlighten" them.
Unfortunately, I won't get to do it to Sol. That system is halfway across the galaxy, on the other side of another empire, and borders an isolationist FE.
@@bradgaines5091 you'll have to become strong enough to roll on them, but by the time you're able to destroy that FE, who knows what would have happened to Sol...
@@Neobahamutfr36 Taking out the FE is inevitable. The other FE is the synthetic one, and I prefer to leave them alone (especially since I got the Cybrex precursors this time around, so it could be interesting if I get Contingency), and I need to get dark matter tech from someone. Fortunately, the empire in between is no longer friendly. I vassalized the empire they were eating, and apparently they didn't like that. And they have what's likely the system that gets you the miniature galaxy relic, two jumps from my territory. I just need to get ships there before they finish the project. And I'm trying to build up enough to take out the wraith that's going to appear just inside my borders (not to mention Shard, who's blocking the shortest route to get from one side of my empire to the other). So I'll have the firepower.
Though that empire isn't really a factor anymore, as the shortest route to Sol is through another empire I have wormholes to that is also no longer friendly, and I already needed to go through to capture the only L-Gate (medium map, to reduce late game lag). The issue is the damn humans becoming spacefaring before I get there. Or nuking themselves into oblivion. They're currently in the Atomic Age.
As for the world in my territory, a world war broke out, and I landed troops shortly after.
@@bradgaines5091 this is what I like with this game. Each playthrough is a brand new, epic story ^^
I infiltrate and annex
I often seem to find much earlier civilisations like Bronze age ones. I play as a slaver race that invades with mostly xenomorph army with extremely high collateral damage and enslave whatever survives. So I just I imagine like Achilles shouting HECTOR at the gates of Troy just like the movie right before screams of terror emerge from the city and the xenos burst out the gate and the indiscriminate bombardment from space begins.
I also find it funny these brutally traumatised bronze age people are immediately shipped out to foreign planets barely habitable by them and immediately put to work in the dark matter reactors and things working on technology they couldn't possibly comprehend. "You made pottery? Good, now you make warp drives" But hey I guess it could be worse. If those fanatic robots invaded for example they wouldn't even enslave them, just extermination. Or if the squid people arrived the bronze age people would be farmed and ate.
I generally wait several years and move them to residents status I only enslave conquered people and people who immigrant To my empire. But I try to Be a feudal class militaristic/xenophobic/authoritarian empire
Sounds like something you would do in warhammer 40k
Goa'uld from Stargate basically
"You made pottery? Great, now you make warp drives" that made my day
@@jimmiewhite9182 Add in gene-modding to make a combat-heavy subspecies and you've got Jaffa
This game was such a part of my childhood, got me into RTS games and it holds a special place in my heart for that.
Bro imagine invading
On a previous update a few years ago, i couldn't be bothered to gather and deploy an army and I was basically at that point in a game where it was impossible to really lose. But i found a world in a perfect position on the map...and it had a bunch of fucking natives.
So i parked a small fleet and began the heaviest level of bombardment i could...then played that game for another 20 hours before i got bored and created a new game. I never moved the fleet.
I like to think entire generations of those beetle looking motherfuckers have known nothing but the sounds of my bombs, that children of that species hear the mass driver barrages and consider it just as common as we see rain.
🗿
I remember the craziest fight I ever had for a planet was as I was invading their planet they somehow fought off 4 mega-warforms and like 16 typical soldiers and the craziest shit was that I had never lost an invasion to a NORMAL planet before but this one was fighting tooth and fuckin' nail and during a war with eradicator machines they tried a total of 9 separate times to take that shit, they were just unable to no matter how long the bombardment on the planet lasted, it was insane as hell and when I took the system it was in back I decided "fuck it I'm not screwing around anymore" and had like 20 planets all make a mega-warform and sent them all to group up with my strongest and maxed level general and sent them in... I think that planet must've been bugged or something because they STILL held on... so I wasn't wasting anymore time or resources on that dumb planet and went over since I had become the crisis and said "fuck all of you everyone dies" and blew up their star... worst waste of resources ever
Don't tell me it was primitives that fought you off!
You must have invaded Krieg.
Or Tuchanka.
EDF! EDF! EDF!
Sounds like you were the Nids on Baal from 40k 😭😂
This is spawn killing.
When you think about it, it's funny how games like Stellaris can turn the battle for survival of a species against an overwhelming alien threat into a numbers game.
Down there, soldiers are fighting for the right to live of themselves and their families, for the very future of their kind, and you are just watching little circles get emptied out.
You barely even acknowledge your conquest once the genocide is complete, just another world under your thrall on this campaign at a galactic scale
Finds a primitive planet that are humans
Me playing as a alien: .i have the temptation to turn you guys into supersoldiers
holy shit an UAW meme
Not even close, this is way more epic then ground combat has ever been.
Always loved this cutscene, humanity isn't quite totally fucked, but you know without help, they're going no where.
Mega warforms are like the London monitor from Wolfenstein during the London riots
A true tragedy that the human faction was never fully developed and added in. Good meme btw.
There's a pretty solid mod for it, though.
@@SuperGman117 civilian not possible 15 billion phone and dissapoint future realism
@@nichsulol4844 what
It was only a couple of weeks ago and I’ve had 300+ hours of Stellaris time that I finally learned I could invade a Planet and enslave them.
PTSDs of spearmen destroying a battleship in the first _Civilization_
Who wastes time with ground invasions?
_this meme was brought to you by colossus gang_
man i wish there would be some mini RTS when invading planets, like in the total war game series. doesnt has to be exceptional, just something that you CAN micromanage to get an advantage in early game, which needs to be skipable (AI controls ur units or smth) and the best part would be simply being able to see a planet getting fought over. im sick of "hehe my numbers are straight up bigger than theirs"
I can recommend the old sleeper hit Sword of the Stars, which works like Total War; strategic turn-based management on the map, but when forces meet at a planet, it goes into a real-time combat round. With auto-battle and whatnot if you aren't feeling it, and it's just space combat with all attacks on planets being resolved by surrender or bombardment, but it gives you that dynamic of not just watching numbers go down.
Play Empire at War
Theres a neat workshop start where you start as primitives, and dont get space faring tech until someone starts to invade you. So the entire time you are just focusing on your homeworld, growing and building your technology (including weapons tech that can be used on ships).
Eventually someone invades, And you either turn to Tomb world if youre not strong enough to destroy the invading armies, or you beat the initial invasion. Which then gives you the space faring tech in a lore friendly way (you stole it)
Blood ravens style
that mod is outdated :(
@@crazybunny1134жаль нельзя украсть ваш комментарий пикчей
Univers at War... such a cool game. Loved it back then. Sadly camera was allways to close for my taste. The cutscene was awesome.
I played the game this footage is from. The Human units are comically outmatched by literally every unit the alien factions have. Those small walkers are area denial units, not frontline fighters, and they do wreck humans.
I think we can all agree if the invasions had little background videos like this as the little circles engaged eachother, it be glorious
Ground invasion is still probably the weakest part of the game. Most 4Xs really struggle with that.
The walker hit by the missile didn't die, it just couldn't maintain upright position from the impact, the two will get up in a minute.
I remember playing a machine empire and reading some of the units I can make for ground forces and some of them are mechs and others are titans like Jesus I used this on people who just went into the industrial revolution and then made them into cyborgs
My gene warrior soldiers : that spear is as powerful as a tap
god i love the intro to UAW. btw some fans are working on a game inspired by it. their isn't a name but the UAW discord talks a lot about it
I've always loved this opening. The guitar riffs as the aliens fire are so cool!
I honestly wasn't expecting to see Universe at war or anything related to it tbh...really makes me wish that game had been updated for more recent consoles as it was one of the more recent games I loved messing around on.
You can find it for PC through "less than legal" means, though it's considered abadonware so.
@@blitzkrieg8776 One of the many franchises Sega put on the shelf. Which is a shame, this RTS is so much fun, if the sequel could improve the controls and build up where the story was left, it would become one of my favorite games of the genre.
Wow. This is the first time I have seen Universe at War footage... anywhere. Ever. Outside of me playing the game.
I play Human-centric only galaxies, so until the laser took out the AT guy I was thinking the soldiers were the invaders.
I thought about this in editing and found it very funny for people not familiar with the original trailer, the transition between seeing modern humans and then realizing that they are the "primitives" in this scenario :D
I miss this game. That cinematic camera was amazing!
Ah this brings back good old memories from my Xbox 360 days
Glad I'm not the only one who loved UaW
As soon as I saw the thumbnail I knew what game this was. UaW was an amazing RTS.
OH yeeeeeeaaah! Universe at War. Loved that game.
If you didn’t know, mega waveforms are actually roughly the size of a mountain. So actually it’s like if you saw something straight out of scythe
i loved Universe at War back on my console days
That was a nostalgia blast from the past.
Me in the early game when I've got access to cybrex warforms.
I haven't thought about this game in a decade and seeing this video was such a nostalgia trip
Man I'm glad this game got it's so well deserved spotlight again. Honestly a real classic, unforgettable mechanics, just plain fun.
Universe at war earth assault was one of my favorite RTS games of all time growing up. What a masterpiece
I sure like that cutscene at 0:32, makes you want to play the game even more and that kickass music that went with it.
Soulless machines detected. Grand fleet of Shroud is sent.
I TOTALLY forgot about this game, but seeing this brought it back! What an awesome game back in the day
I played a Shroud-ascended human empire based on Catholicism. Named all of my ground army Avatars I got after biblical angels and always sent them to invade primitive planets or unguarded enemy planets during war. The xenos sure felt the wrath of God that playthrough.
SIR! THE CATHOLICS ARE INVADING?
"what"
YA FUCKIN HEARD ME LAD
The only thing I dislikes about that game is that I could not play as the humans :( only in the campaign for a bit
Oh man Universe at War! What a throw back to a simpler time.
This never gets old, especially since there's a Universe At War mod for stellaris
Imagine them taking down one mega warform and then you unleashing like 20 of them at once.
Not a mega warform story, but back when the game was alot newer, i lost an occupation force of about 3 infantry armed with drones and 5 or so defensive armies to a sudden tomb-world vault if mutated terrors. The colony was completely wiped out but i send every fucking actuve infantry and built about 3 dozen more for an invasion.
There was probably 70 total. Very much overkill but alot of fun just destroying those little mutant bug primitives that thought they had pushed back the invaders.
@@Robb1977 they probaly cheered till they saw like a 5 billion invasion force coming,ah yes the chinese tactic
the ONE game I want a remaster for more than anything.
It’s at least understandable if the invader is a machine empire. You expect violence from giant, mobile, war machines.
However having a bunch of hyper-mutated bio-titans dropping on your planet after “peaceful negotiations” failed with a bunch of weird bipedal aliens really does make one question what kind of horrors they get up to in space.
The fact that the rocket launcher is the only weapon that did any kind of damage to the giant walkers yet there was only 1 guy using it in that cutscene bothers me way to much
bit of context, the humans in that cutscene were already stretched too thin because they needed to get the president to safety, fight off like 7 of the giant walkers and most of the tanks, jets helos and special ground troops like flamethrowers and marines were helping cover the retreat for the presidential ambulance although the novus introduce themselves right after this scene, focusing and anihillating one walker in less than 2 minutes
this game was a fucking gem. we need another one. Some of the most memorable units that have stuck with me to this day. Shame all we have is starcraft...
Universe at War. Cripe, that takes me back. Such a great game, such a shame it didn't really get that much attention
This just makes me want to get my 360 out and play Universe at War again. This cinematic alone is one of my favourite in gaming
Ya know, i did a planetary invasion recently in a game with a friend. I invaded a "primitive" they had no FTL. I knew invading them would be hard. so i maxed out my army. And I lost. I hate the Katzen.
so surprised so many people collectively know this game as well
Oh my god I never thought I would see this game again
Since I often use clones, I imagine a Star Wars situation, but where the little teddy bears actually get disintegrated like they logically should have been.
Ah so: ruclips.net/video/61cwIr5h4cM/видео.html
i always use xenomorphs,love to give them horror of their life before getting eaten by that horror
Honestly this game was sooooo good for it's time. really wouldn't mind a remake/remaster
Earth at war like empire at war are both masterpieces of the rts genre and its an absolute crime that none of those got a sequel
alright this is it, this is the game that makes me replay stellaris
My purified very strong gene warriors built different: oh yeah
This game was a huge part of my childhood, The Hierarchy are by far the most fun to play. And lore wise the most OP, at one point the Heirsrchy are fighting Novus, Humans, Massari and a rogue Hierarchy faction and they still almost win.
they need to remaster this game. And I'm glad everyone is reminded about how great UAW was.
Man I miss universe at war. Wish it was on steam :(
Big respect for mentioning universe at war earth assault. Fucking great fun
Me when I turn on the invincibility cheat
I’m glad someone other than me has even heard of Universe at War
Man, this takes me back. I really wanted to play as the humans in Universe at War.
Imagine having full rts instead of watching numbers. I loved Kane's Wratch addon for CNC 3 where global mode was present. Shame they didn't make it multiplayer.
Ah, yes. Universe at War. God, haven't seen this trailer in forever. Kinda tempted to start it up again now.
Man, memories about this game sometimes feels like a fever dream
I love watching all the little ships go down. It's my favorite part
what an amazing game this was, im glad other people played it too.
If aliens landed like this, Ground Zero would the monument commemorating "that time aliens tried to invade Earth lol."
Stellaris and Universe at War? Odd combination but I’m here for it.
Jeez, I haven’t thought about Universe at War in over a decade.
Considering that original plan was for the Human faction be the equal of everyone else in the End game makes wish they actually finished it.
Granted it could of breaking the game.
I cant believe i remember this was Universe at War's cinematic lol
It makes sense that the anti tank missile would destroy the smaller ones, but the big thing would take air support, and aliens would definitely have air superiority
This both gives me nostalgia and makes me wish for an expansion that focuses on local resistance mechanics, imagine it comes with a starting scenario where you slowly fight to retake your home planet with primitive armies and starting your usual playthrough with limited salvaged tech the first few years.
so basically xcom 2 if it was a full-blown rts
Me, I prefer to drop a couple of thousand xenomorphs onto the surface and eat popcorn while they..."clean up."
I was not expecting to find a Universe at War meme that was so recently made, thanks RUclips algorithm, even though I haven't watched anything to do with Universe at War in several years
You see that’s them when they are actually near space age tech if you catch them earlier on it’s just sticks and stones
I normally just covenant those kinds of words reducing them to nothing but glass is amazing
As Somebody who Invaded and Conquered 3 Primitive Races in Stellaris just for Lols this is probably how it went down.
holy shit the nostalgia, man i loved customizing those giant walkers to just be a massive tank in combat.
in my cycle the invasion would have been over in minutes
