Says the retard that created such a cheat... Fully support this idea, will bring much more diverse gameplay IMO.

Not entirely sure how it happened, but I once played a qm on yr XWIS and my opponent had white units/structures. Only seen it once though.

How about no-one cares.

I would disagree with 90% of these changes personally.

Logging in gives the occasional issue but ussually resolves itself on the 2nd attempt. Most of the issues i tend to encounter are laggy game room's, problems starting games and retards already logged in with my nickname.

The official word is https://forums.cncnet.org/index.php?topic=5385.0 And the unofficial?

actually team 6 had the most points. Simply because they played more games

It appears 3v3 is too difficult for players to arrange games. This tournament is cancelled, i will possibly look at a 2v2 or 1v1 tournament in the near future.

He probably hasn't made them himself, but is just sharing maps made by others. Yea realised that once I downloaded, the way he said it made it sound like he had. P.S once I downloaded this I went to open cncnet and it took around 5-10 minutes to open up.

You made 3000+ maps? Ive been trying to make just the 1 and so far its taken nearly 15 hours and has barely progressed lol

You can download multiplayer versions of the game (without campaigns) legally from xwis.net/d. These have a no-CD patch built in.

You can download a multiplayer version (doesn't have campaign) of yr legally from xwis.net/d.

So a unit has a use, doesn't mean its good. Lets see all those said units win a tournament over someone who doesn't use those units. Yea lets use d trucks and terrorists over desos. Never happened. ZigZag played like 1 tournament, doesn't win and thinks he knows what hes talking about. 1 tournament? I played this game for like 15 years.. ive played thousand's of tournament games. Player's have won Rank 1 over the years as every team, Tomi and jokujak are two players ive seen dominate the ladders as cuba/libya/russia. Veg/Wonnapl4y/sixshot have won it as gb/germany. It all comes down to knowledge and ability. Obviously desos, eagles and para's are the best special units and that's why most players use them, doesnt mean the rest arent good. Just not as easy to use. Ok since your so ignorant ill explain in more detail and give you some examples Tesla Trooper's - Let's say your playing roundhouse kick, u go early naval (before warfac) to get the oils but your opponent goes double warfac. In this situation ive used tesla and sentry's to help hold off rhino's untill my eco is stronger and i can produce enough units to beat my opponent back. Not to mention boosting the range of tesla coils which is great for situations like face down or tvt heck. Or let's say its a map with walled off oil's/airport's like inifinity or yingyang on ra2. An early tesla makes that oil/airport accessible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4je24hf5djw - Marko vs tim - two top player's with multiple rank 1's marko uses tesla trooper's to win the game. Terrorists - Use an engi he says, just 2 or 3 nights ago i used 5 terrorists in a flak to take out a nuclear missile, an iron curtain, a battle lab and an industrial plant. Can an engi do this? Engi's are also considered lame by most people and they dont do shit if multi engi is on. Tank destroyer's - Just last night i played a 3 vs 3 as germany and made nothing but tank destroyers and some dogs, i held off 2 opponents with my tank destroyers while my ally was struggling and went on to win the game with the most kills. Brett an old Yr player used to use Germany in yr qm and finish at the top end of the ladder. Destroyer's - Let's take a map like depth charge. Destroyers can easily take out your opponents oil and hit buildings on land or pick off miner's. Given the size of the islands you start on in this map destroyers can ussually pick off a few buildings to stop a soviet teching up for a dreadnought/kirov or superweapons, stopping the sov finishing the game early and ussually resulting in the allied player winning. Being a soviet player i learned this the hard way. Demo truck's - you say its only good with an ic, that might be because your not skilled enough to reach your opponents base? Demo trucks are great for breaking a camp, take france for example, if you distract cannons with tanks and get a demo truck in to the power plants then its gg. Apocs - On yr they arent great vs allies due to bf's but on ra2 a strong deso apoc push vs allies is damn near unstoppable if done correctly. But what if u have already taken out your opponents mcv and lab on yr? In this situation apocs will own. In SvS if it get's campy several apocs infront of your rhino's are great for breaking base defenses as they take little damage and deal a lot out. Brutes - Underrated. I used to play repeatedly against Leownzall, probably the strongest yuri player i ever saw, on a map like blood feud if i tryed to rush he'd make a bunker or 2 and 3-4 brutes to hold of my tanks, untill he got a radar and mags. Not to mention the fact they grind for good cash after you mutate your slaves. If you use a mutator on an yuri enemy's slaves near their base you can usually take out key structures like battle lab's pretty easy. Tesla tanks are probably the most useless unit, unless your camping behind wall's (which rarely happens) they arent that much use in competitive play, mixing a few of them into a group of rhinos can be handy vs mass grizzly but it rarely happens. Great in survival if you sit them behind wall's though. As i said, every unit has its uses, you just have to have the skill set and know how and when to use them.

You talk a whole lot of trash too, though. Pot. Kettle. Black.

Might be a mix up, ill change it, got a few other players who can play anyway.

You'll find your wrong. Infantry is stronger on yr than ra2 , and like i said, it depends when and how you use units. I aint gonna argue with you, ive played this game a long time and depending on the situation every unit has its uses. You just dont understand how and when to use them.

Most of my videos are on ra2, not yr, and i didnt say i use these units in every game.

Sorry buddy I already got a team. The winning team I reckon 3v3 with standard tournament rules. 10k starting credits Repacks on Crates off engi eat setting on. I'll provide a list of map's but they will all be standard non-mod map's. Full details to come on Monday, will organise teams then aswell. Sign ups are now closed!

I use apocs vs allied or soviets in certain situations (on ra2) and they work very effectively. By the time ur making apocs u probably have cloning vat so put some Connie in front to stop drones. Apoc+deso vs allied if done correctly is nearly unstoppable (on ra2). Best to have a few flack full of deso for when the deso's in ur attack die. To back em up though. On yr I wouldn't make apocs very often though unless mabye SvS on certain maps.

Since when was creating more than 1 Tanya a bug? Nowhere on ra2 has it ever said you can't create more 1 Tanya, limiting it on ra2 considering there is no seal is ridiculous, this coming from a soviet player.

Guys I will close sign up's as of Saturday evening.If you haven't already indicated your team mates ill create a topic on Sunday organising teams.

Ra2 mode has multiple discrepancies from ra2. For instance on ra2 you can create multiple tanyas. In ra2 mode you can only create one. There was a few other thing's i noticed aswell last time i tried it.

Every unit in the game has its uses, you just need to learn when and how to use them. What are vipers? Again, most of these units are useful if you use them correctly.

Practice is the best way to learn however id advise watching some replay's to copy some build order's or tactics. There's a list of video's here some ra2 some yr http://xwis.net/forums/index.php/topic/163378-red-alert-2-yuris-revenge-tiberian-sun-replays/page-1
