But then again, I haven't played the game for ages, and I used to play with the 'fastest' game speed setting. Originally posted by SalsaGuy:that video was sped up, SCVs dont' build that fast ever. Part of this is the graduation from having two critical points on the map (my base and enemy's base) to having to maintain control over significant portions of a larger map with slower units where static defenses are too expensive to be deployed thoroughly. then somewhere between the above and this:- View image here: - I became confused as to how to manage troops that needed to cover more terrain at once. Rofl!I started here, which is close enough: - View image here: - Played these quite a bit back in the day: - View image here: - View image here: - Eventually Graduated to here, where I ruled supreme with my god-like micromanagement - View image here: - : - View image here:. These keys are relatively easy to find on the far side of the keyboard even if you are as much a keyboard-idiot as I am. ![]() If you aren't changing your view position, nail down your left hand to CTRL+1-4. I use a combination of mouse and arrow keys to move around on the map. However, I did force myself to learn how to hotkey toggle quickly. I cant do WASD directional movement on FPSs to save my life. You sorta need both to win.Im pretty bad with a keyboard as well. Quick reflexes give a substantial edge in RTS games, as it comes down to who is more clever and can micromanage better. Get in the habit of hovering your left hand over CTRL and number keys. maybe the dummifying of the controls to a pad will help. ![]() View image here: -i would like to try battle for middle earth on the 360. maybe i didn't practice enough while younger, but i think it's too late for me now. did i also mention i can only keep up with the arrow keys and maybe 2 others plus the mouse? - View image here: - i had a buddy in college that could scramble his hands over the keys like crazy. You can always retreat out of someone else's base if you're getting beat, but it's kind of hard to do when you're in your base - View image here: -Rob posted by sword_9mm:^^ ahh, yes, hotkeys. So long as they've got mobility, the last two hotkeys of units should help you protect your logistic supply chain while also allowing you to disrupt your opponent's.After playing Dawn of War, I've become a much more aggressive player. ![]() You can keep these mobile units with the main army (in Company of Heroes, hit 1, hold down shift and hit the other hotkeys, then send move/attack orders) or you can use them as harassment/protection elsewhere. If you are playing wide open maps, try and hotkey a fairly large main force (two to three hotkeys for that force, broken down by range/damage type) and then create another hotkey or two of mobile units. I find this makes splitting your forces much more managable.Chris, a lot of it depends on the type of maps in the game. Most games will center on your unit when you do this. Sword_9mm - when you create a hotkey and call it up, hit the number twice.
