Dan_Dare Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 It's just the general feeling that the AI is, in fact, skynet. They seem ridiculously fast- stuff like there's no correlation between what they can do with building placement and my own cursor, if you follow me? it's all instant. I think my other problem is resource management. It's a bit different to my old RTS territory of Blizzard output and Dawn of War so I keep fucking up and reducing my production to a snails pace. I'm sure they're just kinks. I'm getting hold of units now- think I'm getting pretty good with the commies though my skills with the capitalist pigs is pretty poor.
LegoMan1031 Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 It does take some getting used 2. I always sem to have trouble with power, i build 2 much stuff and forget to build more cores. Soviets are definatly the easiest to avoid that though with a power plant. I have played alot of skirmish matches on this but not online, u do get used to trying to create a base fast.ot decided wat is 'my' faction yet though, normally with games like this i have a preference but not as yet... If you have not been online yet u need to setup a EA account to play online (so annoying). I found out the hard way by trying to play a co-op match with Viper but was stopped by registration forms. Can't really think of any tips tbh, i just kept playing and learn all the shortcuts u can do with the controller and what units can do etc. Right this post is long enough so i will end it now...
Dan_Dare Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 fancy a game tonight? should be free early evening ish.
LegoMan1031 Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Sorry mate, just got back from my works xmas meal. Another time defo.
LegoMan1031 Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 Slowly goin through the campaign again on this now, trying to complete it all on normal difficulty and also trying to work out which bonus objectives i missed as i was sure i got them all yet no achievments... So many games to play on at the mo! Anyone can feel free to send me a message askin to play Red Alert 3 when i'm online even if im on another game. (I normally will change game unless i'm playing with a friend already on somethin else kinda thing).
CoolFunkMan Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 So, yeah, there's an expansion coming out called Uprising. Here's a trailer: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/44934.html Looks like it'll be download only, though I'm sure I read somewhere that there'll be a retail version. Oh, and Dasha's back. What? Well I think she's hot...

Dyson Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 *cracks knuckles* Good old PC RTS! Don't worry - from what I can tell it's single player only, no multiplayer gizmos to worry about missing out on. That said I very much look forward to more campaign co-op with my friends. Weeee!

I think there might be a bit more added in terms of multiplayer, but only a few maps, or something like that. Also, I've read somewhere at Uprising doesn't include co-op. I'm still realy looking forward to it for the new mini-campaigns.... and more Dasha.
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 Anyone still playing Tiberium wars? I wanna own some N-E ASS.
CoolFunkMan Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 I'm tempted to reinstall Tib Wars at some point tbh. Oh, and for anyone interested, the official RA3 site's been updated with two new unit profiles for the upcoming Uprising expansion: http://www.commandandconquer.com/portal/site/redalert/factions_en/ The new unit names are also up: Soviets # Desolator [uPDATED] # Mortar Cycle # Reaper # Grinder Allies # Cryo Legionnaire [uPDATED] # Pacifier FAV # Harbinger Gunship # Future Tank X-1 # Commander Hill [uPDATED] EotRS # Giga-Fortress # Steel Ronin # Archer Maiden Hmm, interesting. Well, besides the updated profiles, the Grinder, Harbringer Gunship, Giga-Fortress and Steel Ronin have already been seen. That leaves five more units to be revealed...
Dyson Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Interesting new units. I think the Allies getting a large number of units is a good move, they felt too basic for me. Cryo + ATV + Tanya rush or Bomber Tanya rush is where it's at though
