We need dlc or remake but only graphic and more buildings and more units !!!

Oct. 2024

This game popularized The RTS genre and is nearly 30 years of age so not really a game to play but it is history so its an important game not to forget.

I have played this game on CD for countless thousands of hours. Always came back regularly again and again. Installed new large fields, new units and, as the most important change, increased the maximum number of units enormously. Over the decades, there hasn't been a single game that comes close to Total Annihilation. Of course, there are graphically impressive tricks, but none of them match TA in terms of game mechanics. The best part is that by adding freely available units and fields, the game becomes exactly how you want it to be. As game developer Chris Taylor stated: "My career highlight was making TA. Nothing has ever beat that, as I reflect back on the past 30 years." What else I can say? - I bought this again through Steam out of respect for the creators of the game, even though it's on CD. To my delight, this is a updated version, whose artificial intelligence has also been clearly strengthened from the original. The graphics support at least a 3440 x 1440 screen, so gaming is not limited by the resolution. Music is a matter of taste, but it gives you good memories. TA was one of the first games where the music changes depending on the activity of the situation. And you can see it! It brings its own flavor.

By far the greatest RTS from my childhood, still holds up (and runs surprisingly well for a port) all these years later. Looks like it comes with the Core Contingency and Battle Tactics expansions. On sale for $0.99 its a no-brainer

Dec. 2023

Game's been around for 20+ years and still holds up. Supreme Commander and Planetary Annihilation don't hit the same as the OG.
