Fuck what this site has become.
Which post? I specifically said that I'm no good at RTS and that this was most likely because my friends are bad. I was presenting it asking for what people thought of the Metagame. I'm more worried about what this site has become from posts like the one above

speaking of RA3 , I'm planning on getting the game soon..what's the best way to go about playing it so I can get up to a decent level quickly? =p
Play some skirmishes with the computer with each faction till you get familiar with what each team has to offer.
Go online and play 1v1 ranked automatches. Youll find that youll be an above average player within about 10 games, because everyone fucking sucks on RA3.
With regards to team selection, Empire is fun, but they get a very rude deal in games vs allies. The cryocoptor rush is something that is impossible to stop if the allied player executes it properely. That can be quite frustrating. And they dont have diverse strategies. Your basically going to build a warfact and spam tengu for the first half of the game.

I suggest for some advice u could go to Gamereplays.org. It's the RA3 site with forums and a huge collection of VODS with commentary about strats etc. They also have a huge collection of replays and host various tournaments. Besides that, all the best RA3 players post there and give help to starters.

The OP and it did sound that way. "I can't get over the fact Empire seems more powerful", e.t.c. It's not a fact and there isn't the slightest chance that Empire is too good and apparently you haven't even played with the other races against your friends to see if you'll beat them just as easily(or you just haven't thought about moving your MCV and building 4 cheaper refineries).
What you should've learned from starcraft is that a few games against noobs in no way show you how the game is actually played or what imbalance there is, so obviously wrong comments do look like "mass archons rulz, because I beat my noob friends with them every time", even if he says his friends are noobs that still doesn't make this "fact" any less wrong.
Though there was no need for both of you complaining about "what this site has become!!11!1"

RA3 seems to be pretty good. I always liked the RA and CnC franchise and I have all of their games. Personally I enjoyed RA2 regardless of any imbalances or "lack of this and that" or whatever.
I've been reading up on it as much as I can, looking at reviews/comments, strategies/techniques, and on the units/structures/capabilities etc. I usually try to learn as much about a game before I play it so that I don't feel completely lost when I do get into it. Of course there's nothing to compare to the actual experiencing and learning from game play. I really want to get it as soon as possible now though I don't think I will be able to for a while.
One thing I absolutely loved about RA3 previews is their rendering of water. My friend and I joked that their water looked more real than real water.

You read one word, but miss the one after? "I can't get over the fact that X seems..." expresses an OPINION. How is it not a fact that he THOUGHT Empire was more powerful?
