Differences between RS and RTR?

[GondorCaptain]

Okay 1st of all disclaimer: I'm not asking which one is "better," I just want to know what features are "different."

This was supposed to be a very objective question. I was wondering how battles, tactics, economy, overall management was different in each. Both have lots of modded features, and I don't have time to install one, playtest until I understand all its features, uninstall, reinstall, get the other, playtest until I understand features and so on.

So I just want to ask a very simple and neutral question: can someone briefly describe the differences between the two?

Thanks!

One thing i can say for sure is that to me it seems to be a significant graphic difference. Personally i prefer the looks of RS' campaign map.

Speaking of the map, RS also has a larger map than that of RTR. Thats normal since RTR objectives are different than those of RS.

Pretty much everything is different. You'll have to play them both and see which you prefer. Or just have multiple RTW installs, and have both of them on your PC.

Well, try them both and make up your own mind.

Clearly the players here will prefer RSII while if you posted this in the RTR forum (which you did and I closed) you would get them preferring RTR.

No development team likes such threads as who likes what mod is clearly a personal choice. A number of tmes the thread descents into a bun fight.

It's also a bit pointless asking players about the RTR mod the day of it's release.


So, CLOSED.

Please do not open another such thread.
