To RTS fans it was a kick to the nuts as bad as C&C4. Even Dawn of War: Soulstorm was beter and that was -blam!-.


Opinions.

Don't care what you think, I found Halo Wars to be a solid console RTS and has given me a lot of fond memories with friends. The story was fantastic, though that was juxtaposed with shockingly awful missions (albeit the last one), and the multiplayer is still fun to play. People complaining about things like Hawks evidently didn't know that Wolverines and Vampires butt-blam!- them into next year.

Story? fanastic? Query, did you think Mass Effect 2 had a good story at the same time? PLOT CONSISTANCY BE DAMNED WITH THESE GAMES!


Halo Wars had few to no canonical errors at all, anything it does have can be chalked down to gameplay (and Halo's gameplay has never been representative of canon anyway)... ME2 had a decent story but was overall disappointing, the first half of the game was horrible and the Human-Reaper was pretty meh, but overall it continued the thematic tone of Mass Effect being a dark and mature sci-fi series well (which was totally destroyed in ME3).

ME2 was known for stupidity and being retarded, and is far from from dark but is a story for a bunch of Xenos lovin hertic -blam!-s. I felt wanting to shoot myself while dealing while witnessing the plot here or the lack of plot in it. By god it was -blam!- with -blam!- that had the feel of -blam!-s of war, a series I HATE in it. -blam!- TPS WITH COVER SYSTEMS AND BORING AS HELL STORIES FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-!

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

I played tons of Command and Conquer and other RTS games and I liked halo wars.

No Ensemble and the game wasn't really much of a success.


All my wut?

The game sold only 17.6 percent of halo3's record breaking first week total, but outsold Command and Conquer 3 by a factor of 3 to 1 making it the fastest selling RTS ever.Source

BECAUSE IT WAS A -blam!- OF AN RTS!

You never played it did you.

I DID PLAY THAT PIECE OF -blam!-, RENTED IT ONCE FOR 3$, I COULD HAVE SPENT IT ALOT BETTER THEN ON THAT GAME!

Every time I see you on this forum, you're always -blam!-ing about a game you don't like.

Give it a rest, no one cares.

Tell that to the other 50% of the flood that does the same with halo 4, what is the -blam!- diffrence that I do it with other games.

Starcraft 2 still is the most sold RTS game of all time.

ME2 was known for stupidity and being retarded


That's not the story the numerous awards and critical acclaim says...

and is far from from dark

Say what you will about the game, but to even suggest it's not dark is just wrong. Corpses discarded and dumped together like something out of a holocaust image, melting people down into genetic material, the unlawful crime world of Omega, the various themes explored like suicide, the ethics surrounding the Genophage's mass sterilisation, Gavin Archer's torture his autistic brother... It's no Macbeth, but it's pretty bloody dark.

but is a story for a bunch of Xenos lovin hertic -blam!-s.

Considering that most of the team you assemble and most of the characters are aliens, no it's not for "xenos lovin hertic -blams!-s"...

I felt wanting to shoot myself while dealing while witnessing the plot here or the lack of plot in it. By god it was -blam!- with -blam!- that had the feel of -blam!-s of war, a series I HATE in it. -blam!- TPS WITH COVER SYSTEMS AND BORING AS HELL STORIES FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-!

Do you think you could take a moment to string together a cohesive thought and articulate it in such a way that it can be understood?

Halo Wars was a fun game I still play it from time to time. It would be interesting if someone made a sequel.

Small Community, Lots of Fun. We do Halo, Minecraft, and much more.

I am hoping they will wrap that story up in the current Halo trilogy sometime. I don't like having that open ending.
