Not a single soviet mine can OHK any infantry squad.
In fact, not a single mine in game can OHK any infantry squad.

Sounds like Balance Hell.

Are you even thinking about what you write?

Blitzkrieg series isn't exactly balanced.
It does have multiplayer and its playable, but its not most balanced thing.

Same for Men of War series.

These are WW2 variety fan service games, not competitive RTS games.

Exactly, I talk as RTS enthusiast and not blizzard fanboy.

This is why I am disappointed with WC3 reforged

My beef with SC2 was lack of improving existing formula at all in any way, whole SC2 is just story continuation in modern standard and the same, old multiplayer on even repeated maps with couple of new units and QoL changes.

There is no denying that SC2 runs better, but mechanically its the exact same SC1, just pretty and with couple of gimmicks(like reapers or colossus).

And yeah, we sadly could see WC3 remaster coming from a mile away thanks to umm popularity? Reception? Of BW remaster.

Overall, I absolutely despise remasters. They bring nothing new to the old player and while they maybe be more popular with younger generation(lets face it, if WC3 remaster will be any kind of success, it'll be exclusively due to marketing to the existing population who is addicted to blizzard just like hipsters to apple products as RTS as a genre is in decay and Relic didn't helped much with DoW3 and its early abandonment).

I don't agree that WC3 is something people want.
People want WC4.
But they will get WC3 solely because of nostalgia.

You know gaming is in shit place when nostalgia releases are popular and modern games are not games, but playable programs to generate as much revenue for publisher as it is possible.

Yes, I'm salty now.

RTS can be on consoles and still be good, while not be dumb'ed down. Look at CnC 3's, there are a lot of pull up menus for a game based around mass production. AoE is a pretty simple RTS, not really any 'abilites,' just different units. For CoH, there is enough buttons for abilites. Most units may only have two to three abilites. A Vet 1 ability, grenade, and something else. For directional movement, on PC you click, hold, and move. Why not the same on console? For attack move in CnC, it was double click. Retreat could easily be a click in on a stick as well as reverse move to a location.

RTS on consoles are not damn to mediocrity. In a game like CoH where you are not mass producing on everything or micro'ing economy, this maybe the best situation for an RTS to be on a console. The only thing I would say is Relic's poor creation on DoW3.

+Red Alert, the first one was on old PSX and it did worked perfectly fine, obviously you couldn't pull certain micro maneuvers, but you still could order crush infantry or scatter or defend orders without any problem and it worked on pad.
I'm talking first PSX pad, without analogs, and it worked.

KKND was also very much playable, not very good compared to PC counterpart, but playable and worked.

Z was very slow one, but that one worked well too.

So did Warcraft 2.

And Warzone 2100.

Oh there was also Dune 2.

Some of them even had control groups(WZ2100, KKND and RA).

Come to think of it, there were plenty of console RTS mainstream titles which functioned perfectly fine with completely zero streamlining of consoles or circle menus for fast picks.

The 222 dealing literally zero damage in its opening burst, even while standing still, is perfectly balanced. And the Ostwind needing three bursts to deal with a single squad is reasonable and not at all unfair. Check your privilege.

Funny you mention 222, because its opening burst takes off half HP of everything on wheels lighter then AEC.
I guess you can't see the forest, because trees are obscuring your view.
