Tank destroyers are pretty good the way they are. Ive won games with them and ive lost games against them. People making out they are useless yet players have won ladders and been extremely effective with them in the past. (Brett for example) They arent supposed to be effective against buildings/infantry.. the clue is in the name. Id mabye make them fire on the move but its not really neccessary considering you can ctrl shift. I think a lot of changes people are making/suggesting are very overkill its very easy to cross the line and end up with ridiculously overpowered units. No its not, its meant as tank destroyer that's its only purpose, claiming its supposed to be good against defenses e.g sentry gun/prisim tower seems like a rather wild assumption.

Siege would probably work on a larger map, but requiring a tier 3 unit to overcome a tier 1 unit seems rather ridiculous. I tested this with the guy like 6 games in a row, mabye the range was too much or mabye he had increased the fp aswell? Im not sure but trust me even about 100 conscripts with 20 rhino behind them i couldnt get near 30 tesla. I probably killed 6-7 and after he had 2-3 elites it was over lol. Also did you ever play Piscenix's ra2 mod? 1.007? That was probably one of the best 'mods' i ever played. He made tank destroyers and tesla tanks more useful and made it allied vs soviet instead of individual nation's meaning sov's had deso/tesla tank/terrorists/demo trucks and allies had eagles/para's/sniper's/cannons and tank destroyers. Was pretty well balanced aswell.

If its sov v sov without iraq this is a very effective tactic. They take a lot of damage and can deal it out aswell I played a game of appels wasteland a few days ago the range on tesla troopers had been increased. They where incredibly o/p imo. Cant get near them with tanks/conscript/miners only a deso or massing your own tesla would have a chance.

Either that or he used Albert Einstein's chronosphere to go back in time and forever alter the course of history...

You must have played the ultra beta. 16 years before the game was released lol

I added the Music downloads. They are not in the client. It probably isnt allowed even the way it is. This was confirmed by our EA contacts at their German Office. You could probably provide a menu to do this like you said aslong as the files werent included. Nah it was stripped of music/campaign because we weren't allowed to distribute due to copyright reasons. it'd be a free download of the game with them. Like i said the games not freeware.

Ra2/Yr is not freeware, the same reason XWIS doesnt provide campaign's/music in the MP client, at no point on cncnet do you have to enter your serial number, to provide the campaign through the client would most likelly open them upto a possible lawsuit. I could but it may not work, depends on his setup.

When you say it just crashes what exactly happens? You need to play around with compatibility settings. If u have skype add me on cnczigzag and i can probably get u up and running.

would also be problematic from a legal point of view. No they wont.

u got skype? mabye you can help me with settings and do videos with me?

it lags with obs, (dont know why because i streamed ok with it)(mabye i messed up the settings) hypercam runs fine but gameplay videos seem they been sped up to like 500mph, bandicam seems to make game lag a bit, i basically need help fixing the settings to make one of them work, prefferable OBS so i can stream and record.

i disagree, ive watched some of his video's and his lack of ability/experience lead to him giving a lot of flawed advice. His reach on youtube however is fantastic. Ive been considering this for a while but im having some issues getting recording software set up properly, if i find someone to help me out ill probably start doing this shortly.

This is something ive been considering doing lately, a complete comprehensive set of video tutorials explaining everything. Also if the noob/weaker player is willing to learn they will ask for advice most dont though.

Yuri is kinda like these noobs we are talking about. Noobs play unlimited money maps etc because they enjoy it and dont know how to compete with a good player. The majority of good/average player's dont play yuri for similair reasons, dont know how and dont find it as fun, ironic eh? Kinda makes complaining about the noobs rather hypocritical.

u played ra1 on your ps1? this is ra2/yr topic mabye ask somewhere here https://forums.cncnet.org/forum/39-red-alert/

PUBG is a fantastic game, but yea my point exactly.

Either sit waiting or look whos on the ladder and online and pm them for games. Personally i think it was handled poorly when released, it should have been mass advertised, it couldve been quite succssesful but the staff seem more interested in spending a year doing unnecessary further testing in alpha stage and barely anyone knows its even there.

Ahh well i dont think he was as good/well known back then? Point still stands he did like 500+ games a month and was all of a sudden a top player.

Aswell as brute vs miner bug Legionare vs oil Long range v3 Selling air units.. The list goes on!

When i originally played ur MX maps this was my biggest issue with them especially the YR faction. I liked the fact you made other units like the chaos drone more useful, but i felt it made the fight against yuri much less tactical and much more like an ra2 themed smash and grab faction.

Sometimes this is true i used to notice this on XWIS it was pretty bad but i find 9/10 most arent willing to even listen. Ive tried countless times to help better new players, some listen some wont, i think it all comes down to the individual's. It wouldnt take that long for a brand new player to be able to compete at a medium-high level aslong as they are willing. Max is the best example of this. He came to ra2 from nowhere and 6 months later was fighting at the top of the ladder. Simply because he was willing to learn and put the effort in. Over the last few years there has been a fair few players who have done a similair job and there are still some in the process of doing so. P.S Shout out to adj4 who i reckon in time will become a great player. This guy challenges me to qm's everytime i go online, doesnt care if he loses, just trys and trys again and eventually he got a win. Everytime he loses he asks the question why did i lose? What was my mistake? Perseverance, willingness to learn and never giving up are the hallmarks of a great player and this guy has that in abundance.

havent seen heldro, ive been around most of the day

a minute ago you hadn't played me in two years.. lol name your time, ill happilly take your points.

Anytime. Also im pretty sure ive played u in qm over the last few month's, tej said your yurigod? if so then were like 6-1 svy and the only game u won was on pirate bay with sw off.

Just because you havent seen it doesn't make it false.. Your Yuri is average at best, the player in question has beat far better yuri players than yourself. Andy/Sunny etc, search for video's if you like. And of course the playstyle is different vs sovs than it would be vs yuri, kinda ludicrous statement.
