STAR WARS™ Empire at War - Gold Pack

Star Wars'a dair bir gerçek zamanlı taktiksel strateji oyunu arıyorsanız herhalde en iyilerinden biri belki de en iyisi budur. Elbette oyun mükemmel değil tabi ama piyasada bu tarza dair bir kısırlık söz konusu olduğunu göz önüne alırsak yine de denenebilir. Artık günümüzde oldukça eski bir oyun olduğunu söyleyebilirim ancak biraz sabredebilenler ve bazı şeylere göz yumabilenler için oldukça oynanabilir bir oyun. Şimdi böyle söyledim diye oyun kötüdür diye algılamayın ancak birçok eksiği olduğunu da kabul etmek gerekiyor. Star Wars temalı strateji severler veya böyle bir tarz arayanlar için kendini oynatabilen bir oyun.

I would honestly only recommend this game if you're also willing to mod it, which in fairness is easily done via the workshop. In my opinion, the base game is incredibly flawed. While the Forces of Corruption expansion did improve a lot of the core gameplay loop, it's still just too rudimentary and unbalanced. It's generally very frustrating due to the blatantly unfair advantages the AI has, as well as an outdated UI and limited controls. The lack of a single button to pause the game during space and land battles is particularly annoying, and requires a third-party program called auto hotkey to fix. That said, this game has one of the best modding communities I've ever seen, and the extent to which you can change the game is remarkable. Prefer the Clone Wars? There's about three major Clone Wars conversion mods for you to choose from. Want to improve the base game? Go nuts, there is an insane amount of UGC ranging from the start of the Galactic Civil War, all the way to the really interesting Legends stories, like the Thrawn series. Despite the negatives I talked about, when everything clicks together it's actually one of the best Star Wars games out there. Commanding epic large scale battles across the galaxy's many iconic and obscure locations is an experience unlike anything else. While the vanilla game does leave me wanting a new, more fleshed out and mechanically deeper Star Wars RTS game, once you get some mods going it certainly does a great job keeping you playing, with that "one more turn" feeling you get from other beloved strategy games. Overall? Probably pick this one up when it's on sale.

"Empire at War" is a true "Star Wars" gem, but you have to stick with it for a while before it starts to shine. At first I was discouraged by how hectic the galactic map management and the battles were while I was still trying to make heads or tails of things. Even now I'm not quite sure why the game ended up working so well for me. The story is average at best, the maps are all very small and quite repetitive, and I kept using "auto-resolve" more often than I would have liked. Then came the gradual switch from the pause button to the fast-forward button to speed things along. But despite all its flaws, I found the space battles extremely addictive. The eternal 12-year-old within me got giddy whenever Mon Calamari Cruisers clashed with Imperial Star Destroyers, targeting the capital ships' hardpoints all while the iconic John Williams soundtrack kept blasting in the background. The mayhem, the joy!

the best star wars rts game ever + the amazing modding community

Base game is probably good, all my hours are in mods though. Thrawns Revenge and Fall of the Republic are crazy good.

Indubitably one of the best real time strategy games I have gotten my hands on for years on end. Simplicity is what makes it fun and exciting to wage battles; the graphics and designs of everything is overshadowed by the sheer fun and possibilities to battle and employ all matter of tactics. I heavily recommend this for all those that stumble upon it, it is simple to learn and it is undoubtably fun in doing so.

One of the best Star Wars games ever made. I wish this got a sequel with a Clone Wars era and/or Old Republic era DLC/Expansion Pack.
