Rusted Warfare - RTS

This little game is a Gem! Once you have a lot going on in a match it gets really fun, Mods are plentiful too. Play this with my brother every now and then and we have a blast. Soundtrack is kickass too.

This game is like camping with your girlfriend - Its F"""ing intense!

buggy as shit. everything looks the same, I select a unit to move, it moves 2 inches and stops. units won't attack other units in range and just get shot at for free, unbalanced as shit, just rush money building over anything else in the beginning then just spam units to win.

Super fun and good for less powerful computers! Reminds me of Total Annihilation with all the different types of units (land, sea, air, mech) you can build.

Very good. My only complaint lies in the way units move and the lack of control of said units, otherwise a very solid, albeit simple, RTS.

an honest to god RTS game, made better with modding support, good stuff

Epic Game. play with a LOW player count otherwise the fun starts to TAPER and FADE. Some of the maps are MASSIVE though.

Peak RTS. Amazing for getting people into the genre so long as they have someone to help them learn a bit. The modding scene is fairly active and if you don't enjoy the army v army angle you can try any of the overhaul mods, some of which give it a fantasy theme, turn it into warhammer, add the Xenomorph, or even add new modes and resources. In one way or another this game has something for nearly any type of RTS fan, especially if you like C&C, Starcraft, Warcraft, or the like.

fun become a mililionair and controll the map with Nues and walkers

This game is amazing and really fun, I recommend finding a mod with a community that plays it

top teir rts, get aea modpack

this is one of those little games that just rocks, few other rts games succeed in this dynamic of going from struggling constantly against the odds to becoming the dominating force looming over your opponents in the same match. A lot of rts games handle your growth like it's checkpoint to checkpoint or mission to mission, but in this one every match feels like a full story.

Fun RTS game. It is only using 2D graphics but SVG so scalable to my 5K monitor and runs at 140 fps. Has a built-in game editor to modify saved games. Is using Java game engine based on the Steam/Linux binaries. Last game update is November 2022 and many new features are added since release in 2017. Highly recommended if you like RTS.

Very good RTS. Great first time RTS game simple, simple but addicting. Awesome mods! Fun on mobile as well. Just get it.

This is quickly becoming one of my all time favourite RTS, but I am speaking as someone who is not good at RTS. Lots of fun unit variety, soft counters and hard counters for each unit type at different stages of gameplay, nice sound design and ost. The modding scene is thriving and easily accessible too.

Better than a lot of AAA RTS games. For £4 you cannot go wrong.

Genuinely my favorite or second favorite RTS game along with the OG Halo Wars. If you're looking for a no nonsense simple and not complex RTS game, this is the perfect one. It has so many workshop mods for all eras and even fictional that the community's got you covered.

Developers seem to have abandoned the game, there haven't been any updates since 2022. It's a great game though, especially with mods.

Plays really well on the Steam Deck. Vanilla game is really fun with lots of content, modding is vast and easy to use and get into if you get bored of vanilla. I've got this game on most of my devices, a favorite RTS of mine.

For those looking for a basic but great real time strategy game such as the likes of Command & Conquer: Red Alert.
This one is heavily moddable, even more than Red Alert 2.
There's not much else to say about this, want to play a Star Wars or even a Warhammer RTS game? Look on the workshop page of this game.
It's 6.50$ and you'll spend even more time on this than on a 70$ game.
What are you even waiting for?

Recommended.

This is Supreme Commander lite. Plays faster, has plenty of unit options but with a very simple economy. Good fun.

The workshop accessibility is amazing, too the point where it's almost like Gmod for RTS's. You can turn this one game into like 20 different ones with mods. Runs extremely well and easily. Base game is great and simple for a basic RTS.

I love this game. I have played hours and hours of it on my cellphone (who could imagine an RTS running worth a damn on a cellphone), but it hooked me. It is a call back (and frankly improvement on) the RTS games of old, like classic Command & Conquer. The resource system is simple and lets you focus on building base defenses and higher-tiered units. I could not recommend it enough!

If you want to have a fun time with mods&maps with impossible AI I've been playing rusted warfare with mods and lets say if real fun to play with friends because the ai spams nukes so one moment your the richest person out there the next your being ass fucked by 5 nukes headed your way 10/10 would be but fucked again.

In my humble(CRAPPY) opinion it's like the Garry's Mod of RTS. You don't like a mod? Switch to another mod of the thousands on the workshop. The game's amazing, and it's cheap. If you like RTS and are a fan of mods and sandbox, give this game a shot!!!!!

I loved this game from the time I bought it and still love playing it. Simple, addictive fun...

太上头了 ，短小精悍的游戏，只有不到500MB，策略还很足。虽然有时候得靠暂停才能打过去，不过不影响赢了之后的乐趣

Oh, it's just Supreme Commander

but Supreme Commander's pretty good.

Idk I don't really mess with mods so I don't think this game's really for me

But it's not bad for the price

i wish there were more RTS like this, the gameplay is awesome, gfx could be better ;)

One of the best RTS Games I Play. An immense amount of MODS For all flavors of RTS and an active developer and mod community. One of my FAVS

its really like your standard rts, fun and not too complicated

Shockingly enjoyable. I half expected to take this one back, but oh my goodness this game is fun. If you've ever played games like this one (a somewhat decent example is Command and Conquer), you know how specific the strategies can get and how often winning the game comes down to having the most ore trucks or placing things down the fastest. Not here.
The one complaint I have is that AI sort of vomits bases all over the world. I sort of wished they would be more centralized. Winning a game is easy, but hunting down the AI until their last unit is dead to get the REAL victory can be a bit frustrating.
Haven't played around with the mods yet, but they seem pretty decent and the modding support features seem to be fantastic.

It is 100% worth it on sale or not! There are tons of mods to choose from and a pretty good community

Cool game and on hard it get's realy difficult good for strategie players.

Really cheap and requires very little processing power from your PC which is nice for my old laptop. And there is so much mods made by talented people. Highly recommended. I spent alot of hours playing this game.

casual fun with coop. play and forget type shit.

Fun game, heavily modifiable, reminds me of Command & Conquer.
If you want to drastically increase the difficulty/complexity of the game, give the "Major Experimental" mod a try.
Careful using that mod on challenge maps though as it may make them impossible to beat but for Skirmish it's lots of fun.

That aside, you have tanks, you have massive tanks (experimentals), you have ships, you have subs, you have aircraft (most the aircraft except in the base game feels underwhelming, but Fire Bee is OP), and you have a Spider Experimental that is essentially a battle fortress (displayed in "About This Game")

As with Command & Conquer like games, you can build a base and production buildings and various types of turrets to defend them. There is no power mechanic thus no need to worry about micromanaging that. There are multiple builder units ranging from the "Builder" which is weak, slow build speed, and can only produce tier 1 structures all the way up to the "Spider Experimental" which is very durable with a built in projectile interception system (weak vs lasers though), fast build speed, and can build production buildings at tier 2 directly.

In addition, the game features nukes and nuke intercepting missiles thus if you're struggles to break through the enemy's defenses, nuke spamming them is an option if you can produce more nukes than they have anti nuke missiles

Very fun RTS, the only thing i dislike is the unit pathfinding and the fact that the AI constantly peppers you with a couple weak units every so often, making it really easy to turtle and get a massive army up.
I wish there was a way to make formations so that your faster units slow down so that the slower units don't get left behind.

Played on phone so many years ago. Never know it has mods. Absolutely best moddable RTS game

i play for .223 hour i am say good game yes do (play with mods cuz normal game is pretty bland)

Peak RTS experience. They don't make many RTSs today, because it doesn't get better than this in the military tech setting.

If you enjoy strategy in the least bit, play it. IF you don't enjoy strategy, still play it.

this game does everthing a rts game should be its good for beginner having missions that lead you through the game and its also dosent punish your play style you can play this game however you want its also verey easy to explore mods and is a good game to get into rts

Awesome game, since it's easy to mod there's an interesting modding scene which does marvels for a simple and small game. Besides, it's really cheap, absolutely no reason not to try it if you like rts.

amazing rts complicated but not too complicated and great mods too

Basically a platform for mods, but a really, really good one. Tons of awesome mods for this, & the vanilla units are cool too.

this game is the most wonderful game i have ever played, best 5 dollars of my life, when i first downloaded it, it was confusing at first until i understood the whole point of it. once i understood it enough i downloaded mods, and it made the game so much better, played the game 2 days in a row, 19 hours, i cant get away from it. im still addicted and still cannot stop playing it.

a great strategy game that takes skill and can be fun with many friends

I don't play it to often, but when I do it somehow keeps me immersed for hours on end.

It's alright I guess, but don't buy this. I was unfortunate not to get around to refunding this before 2 weeks past. This isn't worth it, please I beg you not to buy this. There are so many better RTS games that you could buy rather than this. This one is just dull and empty.

If you want an RTS game so badly then just get Halo Wars.

5/10

I have never been a fan of any games remotely like Rusted Warfare. I would even say that I strongly dislike most games that that are similar to Rusted Warfare. However, one thing holds true. I love Rusted Warfare.

Rusted Warfare: 9/10

Amazing game, mods are awesome, lack of a grid layout is lame, but if i was more into RTS games at the moment I would sink hundreds of hours into it.
