April 16, 200323 yr Anyone here play this super wicked game ?Don't post here saying you don't like the game 'cause I don't want to hear it, I want to know if anyone plays it so maybe we can have a match. Roar ! Grrr ! :evil:
April 17, 200323 yr The game r0x0rz but there is this one American mission which blows and sucks simultaneously. Its the one that starts off with the UN envoy being wasted by some GLA than a dam explodes and there is a scud storm. Even when you glitch the game and build up a huge force before the dam cutscene it is still danr near impossible. In addition to the scud storm there is a uber HUGE GLA base with boby traps, tunnels, and rocket men out the wazoo. Normally this wouldnt be much of a problem but one of the games few flaws shines out here. The AI tanks will not attack RPG ppl unless you tell them too and you get swarmed by em' therefore your armor is half dead before you even reach the base. Same thing goes with the missile buggies they swarm you with. However, besides this mission i have had an absolute blast with the game and feel that the mags that gave the game a mediocre rating are just plain WRONG!!! Insult to injury, EA closed westwood studios (NNNNNOOOOOOOOOO!) and integrated them into the corporate behemoth. Again though, the game is hella sweet.
April 17, 200323 yr PC Gamer gave it...77% (good)Highs: Wild and Carnage-filled battles; wll-designed units; awesome graphicsLows:No real story; some balance issues; poor multiplayer interface; connectivity snagsBottom line: If you can get past the lack of polish and story, you'll enjoy the game itselfThat was from my most recent issue of PC Gamer.I think they should have given it a score within the 80s...I own this game and I lve it. It's probaly one of my favorite games!Any RTS fan out there who doesn't have this is missing out on alot
April 17, 200323 yr Author "Lac of polish".... shutup PCgamer.Yes the multiplayer interface is kind of lacking... when compared to battle.net, but, it's 100x better than westwood's other C&C MP interfaces.Bleh, whatever, IGN gave it a 9.3, what it deserves Anywho, I haven't gotten past the china missions yet anyway because I need to format my computer soon so there's no point in playing, especailly since the reason I need to format is because my computer is pretty much running at 1/2 speed, very troublesome when trying to play HL mods. I need to reset to play them, unfortunately it doesnt work for C&C. Grrrr !!But if any of you ever want to play a game, I'll own you with the GLA
April 17, 200323 yr I'd like to play a game sometimeI recently downloaded these kewl mods that replaces the Stealth Bomber with A-10 and the Auroa with The C-130 Hercules
April 17, 200323 yr GLA Rebels + Camoflauge + Hijackers = "...hey where'd my armor column go??"Generals is amazing. It almost takes more time than i play fa with... :shock:
April 17, 200323 yr Ya...I'm now spending more time on Generals than FA (pls don't hurt me )it's really really fun...I usually play Bots on Hard since I find ppl on mp log out just b4 u kill em...I really like US and China over GLA...China 'cause of the numbers and US 'cause of their air power

April 18, 200323 yr Author Ugh... why would you type "l8ter" ?? Can't you just type "later" ?? "l8ter" doesn't even make sense ! It sounds like "lateter" Jesus I hate internet the way people type like that. It's so stupid.No Offense...
April 18, 200323 yr I remember the olde days of the original Command and Conquer...ahh those were the days...and it sucked :evil: :roll: Then it got to full motion videos inbetween campaign stuf...phew that was big...NOD>GDI gg thxI sorta stopped the CC phun at Red Alert 2... I am probally missing out nows
April 18, 200323 yr Author Orgiginal C&C is classic ! Red Alert is the 2nd best RTS ever made, I guess you could say that in some ways it's even more classic than C&C, and you could also say that in some ways it's better than Generals, but, Generals is still the best one... so far...They're working on an expansion for it also !
April 18, 200323 yr Author I have 2 copies of Red Alert here for some reason.I have C&C here too, but it's dos version, my brother gots the win95 version !! Yeah ! WIN95 !!!
