At the beginning of a game you will have to pick a commander and a start location.Ĭhoosing a commander: Your Commander is very important. Okay, so now that you've either skipped my intro section or read it here is the core of this guide:Įither choose Skirmish or Multiplayer. It is a natural progression of the genre, based on TA, optimized and modernized to be able to work on modern computers with its own engine and art. I have seen a few reviews in the review section for this game claiming Zero-K is a rip off of Total Annihilation. Zero-K shares 0 code with the original TA and all the art is separate. Zero-K is a modification of the Spring Engine with custom units, sounds, animations, a campaign, and advanced non-cheating AI. The engine has been developed for a long time by dedicated fans of TA and boasts much-improved pathfinding, better UI, and overall better graphics with a fully 3D environment with a free-form capable camera. And from it, the Spring engine was born, a fan-made engine. The game was so popular it remains to be played over and over to this day. Sadly due to a downturn in sales in the gaming industry, Cavedog closed their doors after releasing some additional content and one more game based on TA, but set in mythical times, with dragons and such.
Total Annihilation was one of the first extremely successful and well known RTS games in the late 1990's. It looks like Total Annihilation, it plays similar, yet it is a far cry from the original "TA" by Cavedog. Your browsing free games, looking for something fresh, and you stumble upon ZERO-K.
