1 [quote]ZK is also the only rts I know of that uses streaming, standardized resource economy. No other OTA-based game uses a 1:1 metal/energy ratio, and no other RTS game that I'm aware of that has more than one resource does that either. Very few non-OTA-based RTS games use a streaming economy model. 1 [quote]ZK is also the only rts I know of that uses streaming, standardized resource economy.

3 ZK also lacks unit limits. Most RTS games have some sort of unit limit as a resource. In other words, the dreaded supply depot. In ZK you can spam fleas until spring hits its unit limit.[/quote] 3 ZK also lacks unit limits. Most RTS games have some sort of unit limit as a resource. In other words, the dreaded supply depot.

4 To be fair, command and conquer games pretty much all do both of these. With the caveat that their streaming is not completely continuous as resources tend to only stream in when you have a harvester parked at a refinery. 4 To be fair, command and conquer games pretty much all do both of these.

6 This ( especially combined with unit counters that may frequently be instagib or even mass-instagib) could be why there are quite a few ZK reviews on Steam that think that it's a take on Red Alert. 6 This ( especially combined with unit counters that may frequently be instagib or even mass-instagib - something quite openly inspired by RA) could be why there are quite a few ZK reviews on Steam that think that it's a take on Red Alert.
