Strength and Weaknesses Of The USSR In R.U.S.E.
The Strongest point of the Soviet Union Faction in R.U.S.E is their cheap medium tanks, the T34. The T34 is the most decent tank and the cheapest medium you can afford and is great for a rush attack. The only drawback is that it have to be research before able to deploy in the battlefield and the price tag of the research is expensive. The T34 can beat any factions light and medium tanks in its sheer numbers alone but probably can have a problem going against the Panther Tanks, heavy tanks and tank destroyers.The Soviet Union do not have a strong air force but if you want to counter aircraft unit you have to research and build the ZSU 37 or AA 37MM. The ZSU 37 is great mobile anti-aircraft and perfect weapon to protect your base or your tanks from incoming air attacks since it can fire while moving. If you playing as the Soviet Union you better research and build ZSU 37 first since to protect your base from air and infantry attacks. If you up against a veteran player he/she might launch an early para drop or air bombardment in your base and best bet is to build the AA 37MM plus camouflage for an early air assaults.
Conclusion
*Build AA 37MM or if possible the ZSU 37 and use camouflage first if you suspect an early air assault
*Research and build T34 first as your main unit
*Always use the combine force of T34, ZSU 37 and upgraded infantry unit for a major assault so that your tanks will not get pummel by air bombers and tank destroyers.
*Never build an airfield first if you go against a pro.
*If fighting againts a noob just build a lot of light tanks rush toward his/her base or use it for supply raids. (this apply to all factions)
*Always build artillery weapons to bombard the enemy defenses.
*Never go up against a tank destroyer with your T34's always use upgraded infantry or air bombardment to take them out.
*Always use blitz for quick resources gathering.

RUSE Lead New Era Of RTS?
I just played RUSE beta at my friends house and it was good. The gameplay of the game is a bit similiar to the traditional RTS micromanagement but with added feature of deception to your opponents. I like the idea where you have to trick your opponent rather then to than trying to do a massive rush attack. The beta offers 6 faction nations to choose from and each faction have their own strength and weaknesses. The beta version only offer U.S.A as an A.I opponent in easy difficulty and is a bit of a let down for me since I prefer more faction A.I and the difficulty settings should offer normal and hard mode. Another good feature is the IRISZOOM that will let you zoom out further more then the traditional RTS to give the view of the entire map. The graphic is good enough for me and the sound was good as well. I wonder why they don't put Japan part of the faction on the game but I understand the main focus was Europe WWII era but Japan are also involved in WWII. I hope they put Japan on a DLC or in the sequel of the game since I don't think R.U.S.E can't be totally completed without Japan.

StarCraft II Possible Open Beta
Blizzard’s Korean community manager Kicho has hinted of a possible open beta, saying StarCraft II will be available for “all fans of the franchise”, not just press and VIPs.
“We know that all of you are very curious about the development of the Beta with the release of many Starcraft 2 Beta Testing related news across various news portals,” Kicho said in a message to the community. However, the specifics of beta testing have not been finalized yet and Blizzard is not yet ready to give out details. The team is apparently doing what it can to introduce StarCraft 2 as quickly as possible, something we have reported on previously.
“I can definitely say that the Beta test will not just involve industry experts and other VIPs but rather will involve all fans of the franchise,”he said. This would in effect mean an open beta period.
The question is of course if this implied open beta will start after the promised closed beta, or if all the beta keys given away so far effectively have become worthless. An alternative is that it just means the fans so far already having received keys for various reasons.
Stay tuned for more info as we get it.

Dragonica Review
Dragonica is a free-to-play 3D side-scroller with nice graphic and fine gameplay. If you ever play Maple Story and seriously bored with it this game is for you. Dragonica story is about an angry evil dragon named Elga who was imprisoned but freed by a cute evil bitch named Paris and now this bad ass evil dragon wants to take revenge by turning those cute creatures into fearsome sons of a bitch monster. You as a young cute adorable hero have the responsibility to forge a group of cute warriors to face the manace of evil before is too late.
Classes
There is only 4 type of classes.
Warrior - the guy with high HP, high strength and a melee fighter
Magician - this magic wielder pack a good punch on long range
Archer - this is second to the magician but has the highest attack rate on long range
Thief - fast, agile and cause the most burst damage in melee
Gameplay
The gameplay is what you expect from Maple Story but in 3D. The 3D side-scrolling is a good element for this MMORPG away with from the traditional point and click. There are two set of quick slots in the game, one for the numpad keys and the other for the QWERASDF key. This quick slot system is basically give you more room for your skills and items and this is useful if you want to us more skills and still able to us the remaining slot for your HP and MP potions. The gameplay is basically a hack and slash there is not much else then that and is pretty easy to play alone without any friends until you reach the area you get gangbang by a group cute angry animals. Mission are mediocre is the basically is the kill this much, collect this much and go meet this guy type of quest and is pretty boring even for sake of the money and EXP. Some of the quest are story driven of the main plot is the only thing interesting if you plan to go through with it. There is also an Mission Portal where you teleport yourself into an arcade mode of the game where you can hack and slash all the enemies until you reach the boss stage. The arcade mode can be easy if you playing alone but when you reach the boss stage it can be challenge to your skill and patient unless you have assemble a party. The Hero Quest can be only unlock if you accept and complete certain storyline quest of certain characters. The leveling is easy in this game since its arcade style gameplay makes it easier for the impatient bastards to level up their warrior to level 20 in less then a week but thats depend how much effort you play this game.
Graphics
The graphics are not that stunning but still consider in the okay level. I like the anime cute design on the characters it makes the game feel more appealing for those anime freaks out there who like this kind characters for the wrong reasons. The graphics will not strain anyone graphic cards unless you still leaving in the stone age. A good main stream graphic card will be just fine for the since its resolution is fixed on 1024x768 and thats consider a let down for those who have high resolution monitor.
Sound
The sounds in the game is consider normal for its consider standard. The music is okay to my ears but it can be a little bit boring at times although you can turn off the music and use your own music player software to play your own tune.
Conclusion
This game is consider to be fun at first but it can be boring a times only if you have no friends to party with. Unlike all other MMORPG this game is much better than Cabal and way better then Maple Strory in terms of graphics and gameplay. There is some topics I didn't cover about this game but it's features is the same to the mainstream MMORPG that you ever played.
