Beyond All Reason is AMAZING. I can't say enough about it. Its my favourite game, and totally annihilates (!) the competition.

Though I guess the competition is pretty small for large scale RTS. Maybe:

  • Total Annihilation
  • Supreme Commander
  • Ashes of the Singularity
  • Sins of the Solar Empire (sorta)

BAR has fixed all the UI/UX problem, scales well, has a big community, is free, fun, and super deep and complex.

Also ZeroK, on the same springRTS engine

Zero K is also great, but they've changed the gameplay a lot from the original TA

ZeroK has some of the nicest QoL features I've seen in an RTS game, I've always wanted to see if the other big Spring games are similar.

I found all the ZK ones made it to BAR, right click formations, area mexes, repeat queues, fancy waypointing etc. Maybe its just an inherent part of Spring RTS so they all share the benefits, who knows.
