Hello RTS hardcore!

[OldSkoolRTSPlayer]

Just a first post to confirm to you that I'm a new member. Hello everyone!
I enjoyed C&C and RA when I was younger and disliked the way EA continued the series. I've just purchased Supcom 1 and FA expansion and really enjoy it, in my mind closer to what i believed C&C should have evolved into. Chris Taylor has made an outstanding RTS game despite GPG going under later on. I just need some time to get familiar with the mechanics/tactics etc and it should be really fun online.
I know that RTS games are reserved for hardcore geeks but whatever, this is the perfect strategy game and very fun it is.
Peace \m/

also: Any n00b servers/members here it is a good idea to add as a contact because i need to familiarize myself with the advanced mechanics of the game and be playing with players at same level! should be a blast

welcome!

hope you enjoy yourself,
you could try playing some matches vs ai first to familiarize yourself with the game before jumping in vs players,
or host your own games, or maybe even jump straight into ladder 1v1 if you're feeling very brave!

please be aware that not everyone will appreciate having you in their game as it becomes very difficult to balance the teams properly with both new and experienced players, so try to join games which are lower rated, and it will be more fun for you and everyone else.

the 1v1 ladder matches you randomly for the first few games to learn what level you play at, so don't be upset if you lose your fist few games there.

if anything, try asking for help in the chat, people are generally very helpful

hope to see you soon!

Hi, thanks for the responses everyone. I'll watch those links because I usually stall the economy and starting build orders are a tough thing to figure for a noob. Ok thanks!
