There is no multiplayer support, yet, in GE. That's probably a show stopper, for you.

LOL!!!!!!!!! that made me laugh so hard

but seroiusly, i imagine an RTS would be extreemly difficult to answer, and i dont think it could be explained in just 1 post, ( i also have no idea how tomake one :P )

Of course you can. Just not a multiplayer one - which is what I thought you meant by "online players".

It would have to be all player vs AI.

Reading Mojos comment, I should probably say that I didn't mean to come off as a jerk. :) But GE's lack of multiplayer support is a show stopper for any multiplayer idea that doesn't work with one keyboard.

You can make multi player games but not online like the documentary says you can (I like calling it the wiki.) Why did makslane forget that?

I'm currently making a turn based strategy game, where you have to steer everyone (see Sandbox of god, grow). If I didn't do that I had to make an AI which I tried with a soccer game, but it wouldn't work.
SO before you make a rts game you'd better get some experience :(

I think...
