Anyone heard of this? It's an RTS that's currently in open-beta on Steam. It's World-War II, and the main draw of this game is that you can use all kinds of deceptive tactics (i.e. fake buildings and units to make you look stronger, radio silence to hide all of your units from the map) that were actually used in WWII.

Personally, I think it sucks. The idea behind the ruses is cool, and could be interesting, but they way the game as a whole works is terrible. You can only afford a very small amount of real units, it seems that nothing has health bars (correct me if I'm wrong and just managed to somehow not find them), you do everything with left click and your units deselect right after you give them orders, and pretty much EVERYTHING in this game moves at a snail's pace. Any other opinions on the game?

I played three games on the beta, whereas I only completed one. It was simply just boring. The AI on my units seemed poor (oh noes, we're under fire! Let's just stand here and don't fire back! Screw the commander, we'll stay here till we panic!) and everything went so sloooow.

RUSE does have a nice view of battles when you zoom in.

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:
Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.
