CoD/BF3 Kiddies have basically become an urban legend in every FPS community outside of those two games.

Their powers are not limited to FPS games, apparently RTS and RPG games are frequently dumbed down for CoD kiddies.

Did that sound ridiculous? It should have.

Anyyyyway. I didn't play PS1, so I may just be ignorant but the only place I see complexity being reduced is in the large scale map. There doesn't seem to be that many strategies you can try on a continent scale because all bases are just resource points for a different kind of resource. Beyond "We need some more of X, so lets attack Base Y" there doesn't seem to be much to consider for the major strategies.
