aw yeah [Posted on 2004-05-05]
This game kicks azz Your army fights evil armies up and down terrain. 360 pan of the action allow many angles. The controlls are simple 2 button to rotate view and mouse to select troops. Some throw bombs some shoot arrow some chop with sword. This game is one of finesse, since you troops move at different rates and can be separated[bad for slow moving troops] Enemies are numerous and results of chopping and gerandes is bloody. learn what a yrkridia and a trow are :)
Confusing Camera? HARDLY!!!! [Posted on 2004-05-08]
I am amazed at how some people hate the camera control in this game. When I first played Myth I, I was sure that the freedom of the camera would become standard in every Real-Time Strategy game. Sadly, only Myth II took advantage of this cool camera. Sadly, almost every RTS these days has a stationary camera, locked above with no way to zoom in or out, or get better angles. For me, this ruined Warcraft III. I hated being a static observer, not able to enjoy the game because of the lack of camera control. Warcraft III is still a fun game, but Myth II still stands above all. P.S. - Try playing the tutorial three or four times. It should help you acclimate to the camera's controls
P.P.S. - If you liked Myth II, don't bother with Myth III. It's a lot worse
THE BEST GAME EVER [Posted on 2005-07-05]
The camera controls might be tricky at first, but after awhile they become the easiest thing to do, just like breathing no thought required, you just do.
People may say that Myth is limited and boring because you don't have buildings but thats a load of ****, the thing about Myth 2 is that it comes with a fully working Plugin system, fancy playing the American Civil War?
Download the Blue & Grey plugin from www.projectmagma.net
Want to play with troops from ww2, download one of the hundreds of ww2 plugins for Myth.
Myth can be everything, and is constantly growing with new plugins and expansions being created all the time.
You may need to download the latest patch for Myth 2 before you start playing online, but it's well worth it. Go to www.playmyth.net for the latest patch.
There is nothing Myth can't do, and when you find that out for yourself, you'll be hooked for life.
a CRY for HELP [Posted on 2006-12-21]
This game needs official support and advertising. It is quite frankly the best RTS game out there and better than that, the best tactical game out there. There's none of the building an enormous flood of units that overwhelms the enemy here. You get the units you start with and sometimes a couple reinforcements at critical points in the game, but that's all. The game has an amazing storyline that would rival the LOTR if it were fully extrapolated on and is entirely enthralling. Furthermore, it carries with it an incredible physics and graphics engine that is, to this day, far more sophisticated and capable than the newest RTS games out there. And it keeps growing! It's eight bloody years old and doesn't even have official support or servers, but it keeps on growing! New modifications and levels, new units, new updates, new effects...and they're good!
a classic in every meaning [Posted on 2008-02-28]
i first bought myth II back when it first came out in 99 then when the servers got shut down in 2001 i was a sad panda. 7 years later i decided to install it and play it again, even to this day it still impresses me.
unlike most stratagy games were manageing your resorces is the key part winning and build what u can as fast as you can this game removes all of that. it gives you a set amount of units and pretty much tell you good luck like one mission you get 5 guys and have to assinate 1 guy who has hundreads of body guards and if you use the suroundings you can kill every unit and not get hurt at all or you can blunder it up and die really fast.
like real life arrows do not alwas go stright and not always hit same in this game, wind rain and gravaty effect and down hill gives you range advantage. bombs sometimes dud out on you when you need it orr you can screw up and kill your own army like in real life.
this game takes brains to play and a real know how for your units and micro manage is super easy.
the biggest shock is there is still a server http://www.mariusnet.com/ has patches and updates for the game and lots of people still play. some are even new to the game. this game is 100% worth getting if you are a fan of hard thinking stratagy games, but remember it is old so do not compare it to games of today cause this is their grand daddy
