Are there any good games on PC that are like halo wars 2, or should i just wait for it to come out?

Command and conquer 3 is pretty good, kinda old, and on origin. Total war Rome II is pretty good, but not really like halo wars. Act of Agression is probably the most similar in playstyle.

 

I haven't really found a replacement for Halo wars gameplay and story wise on PC, I can't wait for its release. If your looking for the same gameplay you best option is to just wait for it.

Yeah okay, i was kinda thinking starcraft, however the way you get supplies is a little different. Also do you know if Halo wars 2 comes out on PC at the same time as it does on xbone?

They have specifically said it won't, and whenever it is referenced they reference the xbox and windows 10 version together, so Its safe to assume it will be a simultaneous release. Starcraft is a lot more competitive than Halo Wars. With focus on building order and what not. I considered myself a top player of Halo Wars, and I was very good, even with me not really paying attention to a specific build order other than the first couple structures.

I was pretty good at the original halo wars too, and i played the Halo wars 2 beta made me cringe with the bad plays people made. Only problem with the beta was when you would have your teammate disconnect do to bugs with the servers. :'( Guess ill just wait for the second open beta to come out. and eventually the game.

yeah when i played the beta it was laughably easy. Players were awful. I won every game and it wasn't even a remote challenge. Even when my teammate disconnected right in the start I 1v2'd easier than a normal 1v1.

I know, i cant wait for the full game to come out! Cant wait to play ranked. It sucked when i got disconnected due to poor server management though.
