That is utterly fantastic

Not for Tiberian Dawn sadly

Play Tiberian Dawn, then I got 6 Harvs for 4 refineries. Oh Nod shot one...

very nice.

can we get a neat sexy gif of all this happening?

when playing Tib Dawn this one time, a player attacked me with about 20 bikes, and his units were fighting my units in my base, when a crate spawns. I grab the crate and it drops a nuke on the battle between 2 armies, wiping out all of his units and most of mine, as well a few of my buildings :|

complain to him not the admins. He clearly deserves a slap in the face anyway

Any allied moron just finds water and builds ships at the start.... and then they wonder why they die...

1. Tiberian Dawn is probably the only game you can almost guarantee this will not happen 2. Because nobody can be bothered to set for 4 people, they just kick excess people. Besides 8 player games (without laggy players) can be really really good. 3. It depends on what map you host, but generally you lose out on a majority if you're not playing da rASSta or some other garbage map like that.

they were almost certainly fake construction yards that are completely useless and only the allies can build them.

I think trapping infantry on non-passable tiles works in a similar way, but all other cells needed to be occupied by a similar non-passable entity (including trapped infantry) I knew of the jesus trick but I could never time it correctly and the dude would just sit on the beach.

the thing is though your previous names remain on the system, so if one day you login with a different name, when people check who you are ALL your previous names are listed to them. So its difficult to hide.

oh yeah I forgot about that one.

The formation speed glitch people use in RA, to make units like mcvs move crazy fast

Because we can write our own (basic) mods to do what we want (or close to) anyway. (see my signature for an example)

It was always a lot of someone asking how to do something in RA and then the next post is "how we did it in OpenRA"... great you can do it but you're not answering the question or helping in any way. I'm with cn2mc on this one where its cool and all to have an opensource... redevelopment which is similar (not the same) to RA/TD/Whatever, but it gets annoying when we get 100 different plugs on how OpenRA does stuff in useless places. I'm not a particularly big fan of how OpenRA plays either, but it looks good for customisation and mods and stuff.

I'd plus one that kind of single-player gameplay. Maybe losing a battle on the odd occasion opens up a different path of missions instead of having to beat them all one by one. In fact Tiberian Dawn did something very similar to this (but only maybe once), where destroying the "wrong" building for GDI mission 6 (the commando one) forces you to play an extra mission on the same map. Also one of the original "features" for the Nod campaign was you had to find all 3 crates to be able to use the nuke in the final battle, which was a buggy (and since removed) thing. I'm sure Nyerguds knows all of that stuff like the back of his hand.

if youre using RAED try holding alt when you do stuff

I wish they did that for every C&C.

you can always change the required tech level for structures you dont want built. Set them all to like 70 or something and then when you launch play from a lower tech level setting

Thats the whole point of an RTS. Take that away you got some boring-ass clusterfuck

I wouldve been a little happier if you'd spent 5 minutes instead of 5 seconds on it. It's more of I hate the map concept anyway, have fun.

Who me? I woudn't wipe my own ass with that map.

I just sell my barracks instead.

1. No, RA3 sucked. 2. No C&C4 sucked even more 3. No, they tried and it got cancelled 4. No. 5. No, see points 2 and 3 oh and btw C&C development got shut down, so... thats it.
