A Complete Look at Rusted Warfare - Better Than It Looks!

- Опубликовано: 7 июн 2024
- I played one of the many games that was recommended to me as being similar to Supreme Commander, and discovered that this watered-down no-money take on the formula actually drew me in in a similar way to the real deal. So here's a commentary on the campaign, and some other stuff, from Rusted Warfare!

Oh my Algorithm, A game that OffyD Actually enjoyed playing for F.U.N!? My goodness are these the end times? I never thought I'd see the day.
Its had mod too
The Battletech mod for this game is really cool.
For the base game - the AI in this game - both for units they build and targets they attack - seems to be pretty random. Which is more fun than a stale, steady trickle of the same old units, but it's groan-worthy when it sends a fat squad of interceptors when you have precisely zero air units and have always had precisely zero air units.
Yeah that randomness ends up performing well, keeps you on your toes, but also the fact they will happily take impossible fights keeps it easy in the supreme commander vein. Simple and effective!
i swear, Civil War mod for this game its a most mindblowing rts stuff for last 10 years from what i see in genre. Its like wtf are this, why THIS is a mod for niche game and not a AAA rts??11
@@MD-yd8lhI assume it's because Rusted Warfare by it's nature as a simple game is far easier to mod as it only uses sprites for graphics and already has youtube tutorials documenting how to install or create mods.
@@one-shotrailgun8713 yeah, its mod friendly. But more important its have a fanbase with strong creative energy
@@one-shotrailgun8713 i mean its not just st a banch of sprites and scripts. This mods have thoughts and ideas, they changed gameplay drastically
Rusted Warfare has great performance (it runs very well even on mobile), and it has a ton of options for modders. It's also almost bug-free and its multiplayer works reasonably well.
no wonder the graphics are so min. its ment to be even moble viable. given its a decent game ill give the dev a point.
@@lechking941 Another benefit of that is it’s makes it easier to mod. No need of making high-poly 3D model, just some 2D sprites and ini code and you have a mod.
@@lechking941 and to be fair the only Real rts on mobile at least last time I searched for a mobile rts without Runnig a emulator like dosbox 😅
@@TheLtVoss Mindustry exists, but mindustry isn't a pure RTS, its.... a different beast entirely
Not a regular viewer, the algo brought me here, but i still feel strongly compelled to note that this fella sounds an awful lot like the narrator for the Kings and Generals channel. Almost like this is the narrator's side gaming vlog channel lmao
Because that's exactly what it is! But this is actually my 'main' channel, I don't own or control any of kings and generals, I am just reading their scripts for some reason now lost in the mists of time.
@@OffyDGGTurns out graduating from human to gamer is beginning to work😂
I have never watched vlogs but thanks to Devin I'm now a vlog addict... NEED MORE GAME COMMENTARY VLOGS PLEASE
omg a video on my childhood favorite rts, i loved making massive swarms of amphibious gunships in 3x economy mode multiplayer because 3x gunships were completely broken the engine is so good it can support a absolute ton of units before lagging making multiplayer so fun
wow a fellow soul sharing in the great experience of watching rusted warfare impossible ai fight to the death. I think this caused my addiction to TABS later
Ah it's good to hear it's not just me! Thanks!
Ah yes, the C&C homage, I love this game to bits and I'm glad to see someone talk about it
The best thing about having a simple game is the potential of modding, adding more to a simple game with improved mechanics and even completely renovating it always makes you come back, infinite possibilities.
Good to see a game get the coverage it deserves. Here when 3,4k views and 5,31k subs
OffyD having Fun? What a wild thing to see!
Next thing you know, he won't be ranting about economic structures and attempting to turn the world towards one particular structure!
TBH, no "units on a map" strategy game should have stunning graphics: You want clear, high contrast, recognizable icons for all the gameplay elements. Everything else is distracting visual clutter. 90s graphics are more than sufficient for that. 3D-rendered chess games were all the rage for novelty at one time, but the chess engines that actually get used by serious chess players are super-barebones graphically, you don't need 3D to distinguish between a king and a pawn.
Agree. IMO, some games get too flashy that they turn into distractions for the player. Plus, in RTS, I’d be too busy micromanaging a bazillion units to even zoom in and appreciate the graphics. As long as it’s not an abomination graphic-wise, I’ll play it 👍
I would disagree, you can have stunning graphics, sounds, etc. However, you need to not go overboard and overwhelm the user.
Nice little niche tittle inspiring almost an hour and a half of praise from OffyD? This is a seriusly underrated gem!
...Kings and Generals narrator, is that you?!
How on earth did you confuse these two people?
@@benjamincanther99 just sounds like them is all
It's him 😆
@@benjamincanther99 Wait really?! I was like, man this voice is *way* too familiar. That's amazing haha
I think the AI is designed to not use its full economy to avoid performance issues when you have multiple AI players fighting on a mobile device. It's not that they don't have enough buildings (they will build a lot of factories if there's enough places to expand to), it's that they aren't using their factories 100% of the time.
That would explain it. I wonder if they should have added the option to disable that, since I'd love to see what happened if the AI just unleashed everything. I noticed it also doesn't build many fabricators, so if it would do that also, perhaps the dream of managing to get rusted warfare to lag could be achieved!
@@OffyDGG I tried to force AI into building more units in my mod, but that's not without issues. Sometimes AIs build a lot of land units on an island, and sometimes they do not order their big army to attack (possibly because they are not designed to handle large armies).
I’ve 100% this game a couple of times now. I absolutely love it and it’s really convenient since it runs perfectly on mobile. I’ve never seen someone make content about it so this was very neat to see on my for you page
Just for fun my go to strategy is to turtle up and dominate economy until I can build enough experimental spiders to just walk across the map
Rusted Warfare is cheaper than Supreme Commander, Rusted Warfare is $4.99 and Supreme Commander is $12.99
also on mobile it is free but it has some stuff that is locked like units and more
Looks like upscaled Total Annihilation - the actual papa of genre (also made by Tailor)
I was a beta player for Rusted Warfare and I'm so so happy with how much it's grown since those days.
The simpicity makes it great also the mods are fire👍
1:20:40 The Ghost of Computurd Returns.
At last I am experiencing cheap and great products, and I know I was wrong to ever oppose their rise to domination.
I love this game, and the graphics play to its advantage, I never hate lag issues even with thousands of units on a massively oversized map XD just a goot rts
you definitely need to make a deep dive into mods for Rusted Warfare. And make part 2 of this video. Its 100x times better
Praise the alogorithm brainwashing! 58:00
Use Control A to select all army units. Does not select builders.
most of the units are also not overloaded with spells/abilities unlike many rts so i dont have to worry about microing my cooldowns
also the mods for this game are amazing check out the MechWarrior mod
Someone else recommended that too, gonna take a look tomorrow, thanks.
it does feel like a cheaper version of the Total Anhilation.
Also, you might want to tone down slight repeating the name "Supreme Commander"
Was watching supreme commander videos and this entered my feed, wtf
Yes! Finally!
The term 'supreme commander like' kinda bugs me, since that game was a spiritual successor of Total Annihilation.
For sure, it's just sc is what I am familiar with, and feels more well known. A bit like dark souls taking all the credit for stuff actually pioneered in demon souls I guess.
11:07 was so painful to watch
yes gameplay > looks.
but 16 bit level graphics isn't much more effort.
Its meant to be extremely moddable
Its very optimised, you can literally have thousands of units fighting simultaneously without lag in multiplayer
It also runs on mobile
Are you looking for Sanctuary?
Hadn't heard of that one, looks good, will watch out for its release, thanks for the tip!
The impossible ai is just basically cheating really hard (it gets over 4x money that it’s supposed to) and has increased building buildup
Edit: only way to win against impossible Ai is to rush it immediately or camp behind lava or water with T3 buildings and build up
I need you to play American Conquest: Fight Back
It is 17th century Age of Empires II on crack
*and developed by the same guys behind STALKER
Odd.
Ive never looked up a video for this game, even though I've played it quite a lot, and yet heres a video for it in my recommended on the Home page.
I remember back when this game was purely a mobile game several years ago, as well as when they started dabbling into modding stuff.
The engine the game uses is unironically one of the best ive ever seen for such a small game, taking thousands of units on screen before the game begins lagging, and with there being no definite unit limit for the base game, as well as most mods, things cab spiral into quite the insane level really quickly.
The only thing I can say against it is that the AI isn't really that intelligent.
Ive had several games where the AI, on the hardest difficulty no less, sends small waves of units against my defenses instead of overwhelming them in a massive wave.
The game's been virtually abandoned for a couple years now. Best avoid.
Almost all games are 'abandonned', why avoid them? Usually a game still being in development is a red flag!
The game had a proper release and then 5+ years of bug squashing and mod work. It's more ready to be played now than ever before. If the game is finished and the bugs fixed, you don't need the dev to hang around to be able to enjoy it.
more like stupidDerg
@@hotdogvan3399 Yep, plus the dev can add more optimization whenever the people feel like it.
Also there are alot of mods i mean ALOT
