Playing missions in co-op with buddy may sometimes be fun or sometimes just plain boring. Two good players can easily wipe the floor with even the hardest AI and finish missions quickly. Although some missions are very tough even on Normal difficulty and maybe troublesome if your partner is an average player. But still this is a refreshing addition to the RTS genre which hasn’t seen much innovation since the stone age.

The three factions Allies, U.S.S.R and Empire of the Rising Sun have completely different play styles this time. The Allies have superior air power and technology and some of the units are strong enough to win you the game, units like Carriers and Bombers are fun to play with. The Russians on the other hand are slow but strong. Their strength lies in their heavy damage units like Dreadnought-class Battleships and Overlord tanks. The Empire of the Rising Sun are a more balanced faction featuring versatile units but being weaker than the other two factions. Many of the Empire’s units can perform multiple roles switching between air, land and water. We also see new superweapons in the game. Since the Russians killed Einstein there are no more nukes and each faction has adapted. The Allies still have their Chronosphere and a new long range Proton Collider. The Russians have their Iron Curtain and a new weapon, the Vacuum Imploder. The Empire of the Rising Sun features, a Psionic Decimator and a second one which acts as a shield.
