Act of Aggression

Act of Aggression is a real time strategy game produced by Eugen and published by Focus Interactive. It plays similarly to older real time strategy games, though on larger scale battlefields than its contemporaries. The game follows the United Nations-backed Chimera task force as they ally with the USA and fight a mysterious enemy called the Cartel.

Intended to be a throwback to the golden age of RTSes, the game has had a number of difficulties attracting its intended audience. Critics have cited elements of realism that detract from the experience; helicopters, for example, cannot immediately snap to a direction and must make relatively gradual turns. This, coupled with a poor new user experience, has made it difficult to approach.
