Seems to be pretty hot on the torrents websites, which is where i first discovered it, by check the name in YouTube. Well, i figure i may as well spread the awareness of this good-looking game.

Also, if you have the time, check out Settlers 6. Another hot game i checked off the torrent site. It is comparable to WCIII, but from what i heard it's almost kid-like. I think from all of what i read about it, it's not worth the time.. But i think it is going to eventually be one of the most popular games out there. Again, only from what i've read from user comments it sounds very limited in gameplay.. But it looks really awesome.

Universe at war is considerably different from any other RTS game.

It is completely unique, no question about that.

The settlers 6 may have cartoony graphics but i would laugh to see a child try to manage the diverse and complicated economy in that game well. Though combat however is quite easy. Its alot more like the Stronghold games really.

I didn't mean to suggest that others were refering to the graphics when talking about the game being cartoonish, but rather, as you mentioned, the battles are easy and the tooltips, like the voice characters say stupid things, obvious things to guide you through the game. It actually looks a lot better than WC3, and better in-game functions, but seems very limited in what you can do. This is because more effort was put into those show-off functions than actually being an undefined world - as opposed to being a defined and limited world with limited user-interaction.

I've not tried it yet but it looks good, like worth playing.. So don't take my word for it.

Unless it has an epic worldeditor of Blizzard quality it will never get near SC2 awesomeness. :)

The editor will be out in due time, apparently. :)

SC2 will definatly be superior, I dought any of them support heroes, items and space like maps with full 3D backgrounds as well as have battlenet.
