Tactical Warfare

This is an alpha version — experimental and unfinished — and it should be free. In fact, the developers should be paying players to test it in its current state. It's frustrating to have paid for something so incomplete and poorly executed.

So as others have said, and I can attest to their statements the basic mechanics (Building/Selling/Production/Movement/Attacking/Transport) do not work as intended and you should heavily consider the decision to purchase. For me the building issues persisted and unit clipping and locking said units immobile and without the ability to defend themselves. I wish these people well, but at this current state this game should not even be in early release while these glaring problems are present.

I really wanted to love this game and I had planned to spend a few hours playing it today, but at the current stage of development that is impossible. The concept is great and it's clearly heavily inspired and influenced by all of the things we love from the old C&C games, so if the team behind it manage to squash some of the most annoying bugs I'm sure I'll come back to it. The main issues I had: * When trying to start a campaign with the Terrans the game repeatedly crashed. On my last attempt, I disconnected one of my 2 displays and launched a campaign with the other faction. That seemed to do the trick. * Half way through playing the campaign after reaching the third or fourth objective on it, the game stopped responding to mouse inputs so it was impossible to continue and I had to force quit the game. Ok I thought, maybe campaigns are not fully developed yet, it's understandable, let's try a skirmish. * When you start a new skirmish you're presented with a few tutorials, the game doesn't pause under this tutorials, so if you take some time to actually look through them, the AI will have built enough army to take down your base before you even start. * Second attempt: After playing for about 10/15 minutes, the game slows down and becomes unplayable. Some other reviews were mentioning this as well. I'm sad that this game is unplayable at the moment, I will try it again in a few months and hopefully I'll have to change my review to positive then. So warning, May 2025: If you're hoping to be able to actually play the game, it's not there yet and it will be impossible. If you want to check out the art and some of the mechanics, go for it.

Jump in knowing that no polish was done on this game: balancing, gameplay, visuals, audio, frame rate, stability, you name it. Issues have been flagged for months, they released it anyway. Played it for the nostalgia, once it wears off, you don't want to come back.

Command & Conquer, но как будто сделанный школьником на мобилки. Вроде основа хорошая, трудно испортить классический шаблон геймплея от отцов жанра RTS, но исполнение на три с минусом: неудобный аляповатый интерфейс, кривой рендер, кривой pathfinding юнитов и в целом не очень стабильная реакция их на команды. Конечно понимаю что это ранний доступ, но даже с учетом этого на три с минусом. Если исправят со временем, то будет хорошая игра.

Broken buggy mess units get stuck nore attack enamy buildings that has to be microed the music keeps playing after its closed as well. needs work maybe in time it will be better.

Tactical Warfare is a nostalgic RTS that nails the spirit and look of classic ’90s DOS games, complete with a quirky third-person control mode and a surprisingly deep unit promotion system. The campaign missions are more polished than I expected, and the art style is both functional retro. I’m going to give this a thumbs up *but with caution* because while it shows potential, the frequent bugs, lack of playable MP, and shallow skirmish mode hold it back. The game, in its current state, it’s more like a rough diamond than a polished gem. Pros: *Perfectly captures the spirit and aesthetics of classic ’90s RTS games *Third-person control mode adds a fun, unexpected twist (still glitchy) *Unit promotion system adds depth and strategy *Campaign missions are more polished than expected *Retro art style is both functional and charming * Ambitious for an indie title, with plenty of potential Cons: *Bugs and glitches are frequent *No option to auto-select best weapons for upgraded units *Skirmish mode feels shallow compared to the campaign *Multiplayer mode is nearly non-existent at the moment *Some UI and control elements still feel clunky and unfinished If you want the full scoop on Tactical Warfare, check out my detailed review at www.walawala.gg

《Tactical Warfare》要是放在二十年前，那绝对是秒杀《红警》脚踢星际的存在，看这画质画面简直就是杠杠的，而且还能缩小放大，完美的匹配我们现在的操作习惯。不过可惜的是它出现在RTS（即时战略游戏）已经式微的现在，就连《红警3》和《星际2》这种大型制作都沉江折戟了，《Tactical Warfare》想要翻出太大的浪花，太难了！ 游戏目前有俩个阵营，整体上还是人类打人类的地步，不知道后面会不会开发出其他外星物种。游戏对比《红警》和《星际》多除了“指挥官”的概念，有点类似于《魔兽争霸》里的英雄，这些个角色都有多种不同的武器可以使用，在欺负电脑的时候，操作好了一个个都是以一当百的存在，只是需要一点手操和战斗意识。 整体而言，《Tactical Warfare》可以当做是《红警2.5》来玩吧！有一定的特色，但不算太惊艳，但要说游戏太差，那是真的不至于，只能说年代不对吧！喜欢RTS的还是可以支持一波的，毕竟如今这类型的游戏是真的玩一个少一个了！ [quote]关注[url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/36224058/]老实人鉴赏家 [/url] [url=https://steamcommunity.com/groups/laoshirenLSR]老实人评测[/url]：独立游戏爱好者聚集地，黄油绅士交流中心。 不错过游戏的亮点，不放过游戏的槽点，带给玩家最直观的测评感受。[/quote]

You can tell the devs definitely loved playing the old school RTS, helps give this game a strong foundation. Price is a little steep for what it is but with some love it'll get there. AI is a bit wonky and could use some tweaking but if you want that fast click rush style game it's absolutely here, AI goes hard at that nuke. I don't know if the devs were going for engineers that sound like Ronald Reagan but it's there. The ambiguously European characters from family guy are there too. TLDR: It'll scratch that old school RTS itch.

Hello, I like this game. The only feedback I would like to suggest is add more maps (a lot) and continue to fix bugs/glitches. That's what I prefer. Thanks
