I like the classic C&C games (C&C1;, RA, SS and TS) and I run a site about them: www.cnc-comm.com.

Get to the flags fast and defend them with garrisoned troops. I have beaten even the hardest AI by just being quick and turtling it up a bit. Once they send arty at you use arty of your own or long range AT planes like the A-10, Su-25T :)

You should download the full version, not the patch if you don't have C&C installed.

There are no balance changes anywhere in this patch. So this is either a bug or you not playing properly.

You need to install .NET Framework 2.0

Tore29 - - 352 comments @ 50 more EA games soon to lose support for multiplayer online

Lot's of people angry here, but not at the right people.

EA is not the ones shutting down Gamespy, the people who own the Gamespy master servers are: Glu Mobile.

I still think EA, Activision, Ubisoft and the like who are leaving tons of great games in the dust should at least save the most popular ones or help fund community efforts to recreate these services as EA did back in 2003 for C&C: Tiberian Sun and C&C: Red Alert 2 when Westwood Online was shut down. Older C&C games are supported by CnCNet (RA1 and C&C1) currently...not supported by EA...

This mod seems to be running at a snails pace. Should check in 2022 :D

Alienware? They make overpriced stuff, if you want a real powerful PC make it yourself or get somebody to build one for you. :D

This mod is finished, there will be no European Alliance faction unless someone is authorized to work on this mod by the CWC team with as much talent as them. This will probably never happen.

The CWC team worked on this mod in their free time for 5 years. Their lives have caught up with them and thus there will be no further updates. They have said this several times. Play CWC as is, or leave it be. ;)

Try to "enable backbuffer in video memory" from the launcher.

They do have nice range on their guns, you just need to use infantry or aircraft to sport targets for them.

CWC is a finished mod, real life caught up on the CWC team and thus they have no time to add the European Alliance into the game as was originally intended.

The point is to move out and capture the neutral fuel depots placed around the map.

The mod is very balanced as well, you just need to learn how to play it. I can beat a medium USA AI with little effort same goes for a medium USSR AI using the opposite faction.

Arma Cold War Assault is Operation Flashpoint Cold War Crisis/Resistance, they only changed the name of the game.

C&C Renovatio is what C&C should have looked like coming to the modern age of graphics. The sense of scale and the attention to detail is simply stunning. It is always enjoyable to simply scroll through the image gallery and just look at the screenshots.

I really hope the gameplay matches the art and graphics of the mod in quality and that the quirks of C&C3 such as tanks turning instantly when they have a target have been somehow resolved.

Would be cool if it was possible to have minigunners carry different weapons (GDI: M16, G36, FAMAS, L85) (Nod: AK-74M, AKM, FN FAL, M16) but it might be rather pointless since only a few zoom that far in anyways :P

Because Renegade is a spin on the original C&C, not a part of the story.

This is based on the Gold Edition and will only work on the Gold Edition or the First Decade.

Tore29 - - 352 comments @ The Red Alert

A few bugs:
Soviet vehicles use infantry voice overs (haven't tried the Allies yet)
Service depot doesn't allow docking and thus can't repair anything.
Service depot deactivates when power goes out.
Mammoth tusk missiles don't do AOE damage.

Missing/odd stuff:
AI is very weak compared to its RA counterpart
No sandbags or barbed wire fences (Intentional?)
No unit or sea crates (Engine limitation?)
Why is the RA3 main menu music used and not the RA menu theme? (Or Hell March? ;) )
Why is the Sole Survivor Hell March remix in the mod?

A few comments:
The Red Alert is a decent mod but it suffers from the engine it's on. The ultra fast paced gameplay of Red Alert is hampered by the menus, build style and general slowness of RA3. This causes TRA to be slower than RA.

Also some units like the mammoth tank seems disproportionate compared to the original shps they are based on.

But overall good mod, keep up the good work!

No, more like a precursor to the GDI Advanced guard tower.
