Correct me if i'm wrong, but you don't have a 360? If so then you're in no position to talk.

Your opinion is wrong. O.O

Halo Wars is Hot :D

LOL, Halo is too sexy! (lol, all halo is hot)

:C

Yeah, same here.

Microsuck can kiss my they stopped it only because they dont want halo to be an rts other than halo wars, also microsuck only shut it down just so that bungie and microsuck can make halo wars, and to think halo CE is ilegal then pretty soon microsuck, Bill gates, and bungie will come knocking on dennis's door and saying shut down halomaps and all that other nonsense bull crap

I sense a strong anti-Microsoft prejudice here. First of all, Bungie isn't developing Halo Wars, and since Bungie doesn't own (much) of Halo Custom Edition, they don't have the jurisdiction to shut down Halomaps. Get your facts straight.

I played the demo for hours. If anyone says its lame, their probably trying to be funny.

Flighter: This is probably the best and easiest controlled RTS you'll ever play on a console. I find playing RTS games on computer slightly difficult, but in Halo Wars I was able to learn the controls in seconds. If they didn't limit the maps and character units available for the UNCS and Covenant, I'd probably be playing the game for even longer.

I was playing around, instead of killing the enemies base, I just take every other resource and base pad, then just build up an army and kill any enemies that come out of the covenant base radius. :V

Halo Wars is Hot

Its pretty good, really enjoyed it, all my friends think it looks brilliant, been a member on the halowars site a while myself. Also, noticed yesterday. Bloodgulch is a map lol.

Yah, I wonder how Bloodgulch will look like...

Also, you cant good refs on the game, most of the models are to small :V

I take it back.

The Cleansing Ray does not do alot of damage, but lasts for a while.

The Mac Blast is super powered and does alot more damage in one shot.

And who does not have 600 supplies? I wipe out crap with 600 supplies :V

Actually, it tears infantry apart.

The Cleansing Ray only lasts for as long as your Resource pile is full, once depleted, the beam is stopped.

And @ Polamee: SP Sangar

E1: Mac strike? You dont need a Mac strike when you have 2-5 Vultures at your disposal.

This.

And those vultures are frickin' monsters. On Heroic when I finally got a scarab, I thought I was king of the world. Next thing I know, a vulture and a couple of hornets rape me in all holes, including the one which fires mah lazer...

Shoop Da Whoop...

I take back what I said. Awesome game.

I never saw a scarab D:

Also alot of the sizing is way off.

Like a warthog is about 1/3 of a scarab.



Also, I expected more units for each side :V
Edited by Advancebo on Feb 7, 2009 at 06:44 PM

I dont think its the full pop cap. I think the max is 70 for Covie, and 60 for marine.

And I agree, the Scarab needs to be larger.
Edited by Lone Warrior on Feb 7, 2009 at 06:45 PM

Yes, and when the expansion/sequel comes out, they will make more money. Also, I'd just like to comment on the whole M$ points thing by saying: "Microsoft, where we make you pay for money!"

Yah, and when Halo 3 ODST comes out, Microsoft will make much more money. As ODST comes with all multiplayer maps, including the DLC maps.

The scarab is an unstoppable behemoth. I love it.

All the sizes are fine, in my opinion.

I saw the Spartan entrance cutscene somewhere, now that was cool.

There should be 4 teams :V

UNSC
Covenant
Brutes
Forerunner

Or something.

No elite rangers or brute jump packs :V

Are there even any brutes as units that isnt the chieftan leader?

Elite Honor Guards are suppose to be the equivalent to the UNSC Spartans?

A good army?

Two scarabs.

@AdvanceBo:Brutes and Chopers and Unique units for the Brute Chieftain. Although, I'm not entirely sure if there are others.

Forerunner faction was an April Fools joke.

No Elite rangers or Brute Jump packs as they would just get splatted on the side of a Vulture wind-screen.

When combatting a Spartan(Chaingun) with 1 Elite Honour Guard my Elite honour guard was not damaged very much, shields around 50%, and went and killed the Spartan. However, this Spartan was running away. (Ye, go figure >_>)

And personally I would rather 3 factions:
U.N.S.C
Covenant
Flood

On a side note. If by Forerunner, you mean Sentinel, various Sentinel factories are scattered around certain maps, and act as 'Mercenary' units.

2 Scarabs? Easily combatted with a large amount of Vultures, hence you need escort untis for the Scarab. When playing with actual players dont expect to go waltzing into a base with a Scarab expecting to destroy everything.

Haven't seen ODST's in action yet.

I just wish everything wasnt so small :V

Actually, I'd prefer things smaller. I guess I'm just used to playing SupCom.

Playing as the covi's is hard when you first start. But its good to have a base that is full of warehouses.

They should have more upgrades >:V

I upgraded everything in about 15 minutes on a skirmish game :V

Bases are to small.

40 units is no fun.

Humans need larger units.

More upgrades is true, it left me wanting more to upgrade.

I also wanted jackals with shields, not just long range weapons >_>. A sort of Dawn of War Infantry system where you upgrade individual units with weapons you want.

I'm a little late but yes, there are brute-led lances, as well as choppers and, jump pack brutes. Also, the arbiter has suicide grunts under his command. And my perfect army would be, using the 50 pop cap as the covenant, 1 Scarab, 3 Wraiths, 6 ghosts, 2 banshees and the rest infantry and several honor guard elites.
