Video Game Reviews of Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath
Customer Review: The Best RTS Game
Summary: 5 Stars
By the time I purchased C&C3 I was totally addicted to C&CGeneralsZeroHour and I could not get use to new Tiberium Wars. However, time passed, Kane's Wrath expansion appeared and now I enjoy it very much.For me, it is not a perfect, but defintely the best RTS game I ever played.
AI is almost completaly predictable and playing constantly against computer quickly becomes boring. In skirmish mode, AI attacks with large number of mixed units usually without using any tactics (for example: pushing some 20 helicopters against anti-air defenses)depleting all resources.
On the other hand, online play is fun and often really challanging.In order to win 1vs1, player needs to be quick and have his eyes in every corner of the map (it means expanding base,detecting opponent's tactics and rushing squads - all at the same time). It requires skill.
Pros:
1. Well developed system of commands and controls. It allows player to implement tactics quickly.
2. Variety of avaliable units. There is plenty of different units with different abilities that gives player possibility of surprise attacks
3. Interesting economy. Player needs to gather "Tiberium" from the fields that may be depleted but gradually grows back again after time.
4. Very good graphics.
5. Variety of maps.In addition, many fascinating, unofficial maps are avaliable online.
6. Game runs very well. I never had a single crash.
7. Factions are relatively well balanced.
8. Global Conquest is a nice addition. However, comparing to other turn-based strategies (for example MedievalIITotalWar) in my opinion this part is underdeveloped.
9. Interesing story.
Cons:
1. Sometimes units fail to respond to order (for example Harvester running around like a retard and unable to provide income or MARV, blocked by some other units unable to move) It certainly needs a fix.
What I would like to see about C&C game is more advanced camera rotation. Possibility of observing army and base from every perspective (like in WorldinConflict)could be great addition to already great game. I just hope that recently announced C&C4 will have this type of improvement.
