does or has anyone played any games similar to this one? something with the same map style and restarts fresh regularly, now mind you any game that uses the upgrading timer thing holds no interest for me, Games like Dragons of Atlantis on Facebook. it doesnt have to be a new game, just something that is strategic. I started with Utopia on Swirve when i was 12 i think. then i found VU, i havent searched around a lot when i do i find nothing but garbage. | ||||
There is another game that is sort of similar to this, but it sucks and I can't remember waht it's called.. I doubt you'll find what your looking for. | ||||
well im just wondering what others play to occupy time between ticks. i like to think about the games i play. like in elements, being a card game i have a lot of options and a lot to consider when building a deck. Its similar to VU in that fashion. which is why between ticks im playing that. I used to play on Dominategame.com which is a Risk knockoff, what i like about that was the timer, you could pick options for how fast people had to play and i was able to play really fast. plus i didnt have to wait forever for a turn. | ||||
I play WoW, Mount and Blade: Warband, DCUO, Warframe, Terraria, Minecraft... PC, PS4, PS Vita | ||||
I play pocket pool and where is thumbkin. Wanna join me? | ||||
just started playing Men of War | ||||
I use to play Ikariam. It was ok but more of a time drain then vu. Has some similar game play. | ||||
stir forgot to mention he plays pocket pool with me too | ||||
anyone know any good strategy games that don't need a crazy good computer? For playing in between turns. I am thinking games like Rome: Total War, Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Mount and Blade: Warband. Was looking for something along those lines I don't mind horrible graphics as long as the gameplay is excellent. | ||||
Pillars of eternity. -it's a newer version of baldurs gate. gotta use tactics with the right combo of characters, magic, etc etc etc. want army sized strategy + real person view of yourself on the battlefield commanding the army you can grow and recruit etc..play "Warband" it's generical graphics cause its an older game..but I used to get addicted to playing it for some reason. Maybe it was the polo ideal of attacking people from horseback..long long game. might take a year to beat. | ||||
European Universalis IV is the greatest strategy game created thus far imo. Expensive due to the big load of DLC though which you will end up buying if you get hooked (I spent at least €100 on this game and its DLC because I couldn't wait for it to go on sale). | ||||
i'm looking for ones i can get for free :P | ||||
*cough* torrents *cough* | ||||
my computer is too slow for Rome:total war... And I hate torrents. | ||||
Did I mention pocket pool? It never gets old and I'm a master at it. I win every time | ||||
civilization is also like those games..not sure what the latest one is.. | ||||
Lotro (lord of the rings online) | ||||
Omg, Ajax. Cant believe I found someone that played Romance of the Three Kingdoms...lol. | ||||
Dark souls III is out..graphics are awesome | ||||
Stardew Valley is pretty sweet. | ||||
ROOTK VII for the ps2 was the best of the series imo. Just throwing it out there :) | ||||
Dynasty warriors 1-8(Empires) CLASSIC game Never winter nights Company of heroes Homeworld Magic the gathering online Civilization all great games i play to pass the time between ticks | ||||
Stronghold. Have played that for 25 months now. Tend to be somewhat expensive when you have played it for some time (if you want to stay among the better 20% of the players that is - else you can play for free). | ||||
Stronghold is good. Old games are. Here a list of games to try: | ||||
I play tagpro | ||||
no game has yet surpassed command and conquer. | ||||

Think this thread deserved a *bump*. Maybe "one" has stubled over something interesting?! | ||||
Does anyone know/play games similar to VU gameplay? Most of those you mentioned aren't really. I know two that meet criteria of: Those are: | ||||
Sup guys, ik u guys are pretty busy with RL issues these days just like me, so i'll get to the point. There's a game pretty good which follows close concepts of vu; Not saying like/better than VU, thats up to players to decide. The game was new 6-8 months ago but started getting popular already with +500k registered players at least. i believe +1 million now. It has many servers like 100 players world, 50 player worlds, 22 players tutorial world(2x speed), Event worlds n many more pro worlds. Gameplay is almost same as VU with Allies, moving armies, attacking provinces/armies, conquer countries; in some event worlds you have play Alone! you can follow your own strategy caz in 100 players world it will be rusty :) No rules/ punishment for Betrayal, in fact players will do anything to kill you as Only 1 Player/1 Alliance can win. For 100 player worlds Alliance has max 5 members. Has Paying methods via Golds, but not P2P caz you can get tons of Golds after winning a World n ranking Top at end. Not impossible to win
worlds without using single golds, if u have skills. Tons of strategies with Secret weapons, Rocket, Nuclear Nukes; or u can just focus on 1 military sector! it will fully depend on you. But bad news is, i cant share the Game link/name. It might hit VU badly, cant do that. I could be the worst player that vu had, but still i love vu & Zeta. P.S.: if you folks are way too much excited to play, i might recruit 4 players(must be well-active) whom will not Reveal the game, for forming a unbeatable coalition. In that case, u can PM me, except Venomz. I dont hate him but cant Trust someone who Hates me. Least Requirements: Discord, Coordination, Activity; caz we wont play against vu players ;) Thats it folks. I'll stay in touch with vu, even tho i left. Heartful Love to ALL of you played with me. Cheers. Screenshots Below: 100 player world  From starting in a 100 player world:     My new made Coalition, but i'm no new here.  Each world has its own Newspaper/Forum thread where players/coalitions can post/ write article including seeing info of other countries.   | ||||
Remember to seek and find active players (or former active) players reviews. They are very often like: No updates. No fixing of glitches. It cost money of you want to raise just a little in ranks. Etc. etc. etc. Just I have have written was what I found out with Stronghold Online (I did pretty well I say - but I also used more real money during that 1½-2 years or so I played, than I want to tell my wife). | ||||
McMax: Mc this isnt that type of game anyway, the one you played. But i do played many games like Stronghold online; for exmpl- Avalon online, Vikings: war of clans, Inavasion: modern empire(my friends still play like crazy), DomiNations, Brutal Age: Horde invasion, Sea Game: Mega carrier, Rise of civilizations, Terminator Genesys: Future war(by Plarium LLC), Stormfall: rise of balur, Soldiers Inc: Mobile Warfare. I played all of these games :) | ||||
From the screenshost I could bet it's just another Supremacy 1914 copy made by the same company.They are all shit in comparison to original success. They sold themselves our after that one. But Supremacy is still playable. | ||||
I played many of game over my years. My main game is Eve online, followed by VU here. I tried many other but none ever took me like these two have:) Eve went free to play on some lvls... unsure what will happen with eve as ccp sold it to pearlabyss... time will tell :P  | ||||
heroix: Mate i chacked Supermacy 1914, its way too out dated mate. And this one is much more different with latest graphics, army movings & more latest features. Obviously not from the same company, not even close. What u can do in vu, available on that game too. But yes u can say its copied from supermacy, all ik i the game is 1 year old. Even if they copied, they updated everything, changed gameplay & performance including adding WebGL to take the game on next level. | ||||
Thank you for suggesting Supremacy, I started playing and I like it! It is closest to what VU has, the free movement on the map. Sure, its not like VU, because there are set up roads, so you can't walk around trying to intercept anyone like you can in VU, this game has the best freedom on the map. Its set up at time of world war I, so nothing fantasy, just solders, cavalry, artillery, tanks, there are even airplanes and ships. But start is simple and I like it, you start with 20 solders in each of your 10 provinces in the country. So total of 100 soldiers, and I started playing yesterday. Right away I started moving my troops so that all 100 are at the border of the country next to me. Its similar to VU in a way it takes time for stuff to happen, you need to spend hours to walk from place to place, but its not based on hours, it has minutes as well, so you don't reach places at the top of the hour like in VU. One day playing I managed to take down the entire country next to me, and was already moving my troops to the other enemy. Still entire first day you only have infantry and by building some training centers and baracks, you are able to build armored cars. But its different like in VU, they are expensive and you don't get millions like in here. In two days of playing all I got is 200 soldiers, and thats about it. I also saw a guide, he was showing to someone that he has 8 artillery units which is very good, and that is nice, cause I would hate for someone to come at me with 100k troops. It does not seem realistic. One thing I like about this game is similar to VU, if you invest time and think what you're doing, you can be good. For example, it took me an era or two to always be on top of HoH in here playing Halfers and I rarely meet anyone that outplays me to such level that makes me not want to play. Same goes for the other game, I have 23 provinces now, the most on the map, second person has only 16 (means he took 6 pieces of another country) and that puts me on 1st spot in the scores on that map. Only playing 2 days. Its different comparing to VU cause in all this time I did not talk to anyone there, I pretty much did everything by myself, there are alliances but mostly between 2-3 countries and its rare so far. Only two countries next to me allied probably to stop me, other than that, did not talk to anyone else. I sent a letter to someone on the other side of the map to see if they would like to be allies. VU is better in that regard, much easier to make friends. On the other hand, when you want to ask something, you click chat and there is help option, you get a reply within 2 minutes from people that know what they are talking about. Unlike here, chat is never used, and should probably be removed. Now I am massing up my armies next to enemy capital, and I noticed bunch of their armies walking into the city. In VU we have eye in sky which is awesome, in that game they give you option to send a spy to see what they have there, and it costs real money. Which sucks big time. I did see when they were outside the city how many they had, but inside the city I can not see. So I guess I might have to risk it. | ||||
Edi i was actually wrong. Supermacy 1914 is better than the game i showed. I saw an old youtube video of gameplay, sorry for that. agree with you. | ||||
douple post... request deleting. | ||||
Also i forgot to mention Edi, you are playing at a Tutorial World of only 31 total players, where all players are new. So communications will be a bit lesser in this world. n lots of players wont be much active, even might leave. But when you'll play 100 player Worlds & 500 player worlds, without coalitions, communications & Allies, you'll be end up dead pretty fast :) i say play more, then compare XD. I'd say the game concept pretty close from VU & gameplay in next lv. | ||||
      | ||||
Good mix. | ||||
Wow, actually UI got completely revamped! And got an mobile app too. Last time I checked it was good old' design and it wasn't more that 3-6 months ago. Maybe I'll start playing again as it's possible to play from phone now. PM me if you'd like to form an alliance or something later. EDIT: It actually changed only 3 months ago. And I've been member since early betas of 2007. | ||||
Still playing Supremacy And its funny, I started 8th of February, and the game has been updated twice already. Quite the difference to what we have here... Cool thing is that there are new maps opening every day, so you can always start fresh, and that is cool, but also bad on some aspects. On two maps I started, I died. But on the very first that I started, I am still 1st and by far the most powerful on the map, and I noticed most people quit, except 3 that are still playing . Sure, its only 31 players at start, but all quit but 3... That is because there are so many new maps opening every day, if you fail for a bit on one, you just give up. | ||||
Hmm everyone quitting the second you have a setback doesn't sound too fun to me | ||||
The same happened in Neptune's Pride that was recommended here a while back. | ||||
It is very different to what we have here... When you break the enemy, they go offline and then you just take over cities With little to no resistance. When you go inactive in Supremacy, the game turns on their AI So the inactive countries are actually active, as AI controls it. Not a bad AI at all. Stays neutral, but if attacked will attack you as well. Everyone has eight cities at start I think, and if you take 2-3 cities from AI And move on, without leaving defenses there, AI will just sneak armies in there and retake it. You have to be smart about it, try to block roads so they can't walk to the city. Leave defenders in important places. There are maps with 500 players, I happen to start at the 31 players one, and that is tutorial that vets can not join. I have defeated coalitions of 2 countries, it was a hard battle but I managed to beat them. So it was fun at start, then over time countries went inactive. Thing is, when person is active they will train more, so its harder to beat them. AI is easier to defeat cause they only train infantry, and you can use artillery, tanks, planes, ships so its easy. Just comparing to VU, when enemies give up its boring. | ||||
I've started playing it again, since it has an app now. And it's fun. There's much more fighting and much less farming than VU. If someone want's to join a game together - write me up. We can form a coalition there. Here's some screenshots of how it looked only half a year ago (legacy mode) and now: | ||||
Is anyone playing Grepolis? | ||||
Osiris: Osi when you a beginner in Supermacy, you'll spawn in small tutorial worlds. Those peeps go offline often as they quit the game most cases. But when u enter 100 player or 150 players world, you'll be surprised! Those r full of active vets most cases. There are also custom game makings n Alliance challenge games. | ||||
