Tactical Speedbump
I completed a long session of Total Annihilation and honestly I don’t think RTS games can ever be perfectly balanced. Our creativity will always break the balance somehow. Even if devs try their best, players will always discover one dirty combo that changes everything. The imbalance is what keeps RTS alive sometimes. Once everything becomes equal, people will complain it’s boring. So, maybe perfection is not the goal, maybe having some chaos is part of the design.
. Sometimes, nothing ever fully satisfies gamers. Once developers balance one strategy, another strange combo appears from nowhere. I remember when one patch “fixed” a faction in Company of Heroes and suddenly another unit became impossible to stop.
