It’s been a long time since I last played an RTS. Yan asked me how to deal with the aliens in Kane’s Wrath, which got me reminiscing about Red Alert 3 and Tiberium Wars all over again.
Along the way I remembered a one-line tip I once gave to a newbie — let me share it:
“This game isn’t about destroying the enemy base — at its core it’s about grabbing ore. Whoever grabs all the ore first wins, so play it like Day of Defeat or Battlefield 2142.”
Make grabbing ore your top priority and your core motivation, and victory won’t be far off.
So, are you stunned by such a simple yet profound tip?
Hehe, only a high-end pro player like me could lay bare the secret in a single line.
