No number groups, no rally points, no path finding, just raw clicking.

Great game.


There are control groups and rudimentary path finding. Don't remember if there are rally points or not.

Some other awesome things about it you didn't list:
- Only one playable race!
- Perfect balance! (because of the above)

Edit: Seriously, the 2 best RTS's among the oldschool ones would definitely be SC:BW and C&C:RA.




Omg i love that music. Red Alert was my first RTS, and the soundtrack was ridicolously good. Used to jam to that shit on my CD Player :D

I found a warcraft2 forum that's very active. What a hardcore community they are still active after 15+ years.

They are sickeningly bad manner too lol.

Scroll 1/3 down and see how bad this warcraft2 player gets burned for posting his pic.

That Hamster dude is such an amazing troll.

Loved playing this when I was like 9, still remember that blood lust orges are rape. And also AoE2 is one of the best RTS games ever made, I was addicted to it for awhile.

I remember trying the bnet edition years after playing the single play version and being amazed people actually played as humans. Silly dumb bastards.

CC R&A was fun as hell, but certainly not balanced.

war2combat - he advertises his own site. I was surprised this wc2 thread was not by him when I saw it - but it includes videos mentioning war2combat anyways.

in light of this thread, I was wondering if there is such a thing as any skilled players of warcraft 1 ?
Are there even any strategy sites or anything? Controls are fucking hideous lolol




Wondering if anyone good wants to DL wc1 with me and just try out some basic shit and then we can make some 1v1 videos lol


also



lol

and who remembers DC?




DC was actually pretty freakin good but the problem with it was that it came out the same time as sc did.
