I think they just wanted a really big tank. :laugh:

I disagree with the Soviets being very powerful. I'd even say they are the weakest faction. Regarding your initial question: Everyone is underpowered against Yuri.

OBS and Bandicam are the only programs I could get to record YR. With Bandicam, chose desktop recording, start the recording, the start YR. Using game recording didn't work for me because Bandicam wouldn't detect the game. Proof of concept can be found here.

Now that the Soviets nuclear threat has been eliminated, we move our fleet up the Volga. Or the Neva; it's not entirely clear. This mission is surprisingly easy considering how late in the campaign it is. The time limit is pretty generous and the spy satellite and Longbows make it a cakewalk. I'd say that even missions 5 or 7 are harder. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MmzQ4jqvzdw Alternative link.

The Amazon description reads like that of a C&C3 novel. Also, there's a difference between being inspired by something and just copying someone's IP with a letter or two changed.

Here's the third GDI mission. I'm still not a fan grenadiers, but that's strictly personal. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZnmXrXr5yE Alternative link.

I think the RA1 mission are overall better designed and have a better AI. The AI ability to respawn buildings everywhere and the huge income boost turn many C&C1 missions into a slog.

Ah, this mission. I quite like it, but the first time I played it, it got me cold when I realised that the counter continues in the second part of the mission. Hell, I didn't even anticipate there was a second part! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzoqiTT_Yus Alternative link.

I could... probably by zapping everything with the Ion Cannon or by mircomanaging the orcas better. That doesn't sound like all that much fun, to be honest.

Here's the infamous PADSUX mission: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Euxr7fsNOM Alternative link.

What do you mean? The second video doesn't even have an intro.

It would be cool if there was a secret ending for the Allied campaign that you only get if you do this the sneaky way, but nobody did ever see it because everybody just stomps the base. XD

There's apparently a .big extractor for C&C3 (or at least designed by someone who used it for C&C3). Does anyone whether it's any good? http://www.moddb.com/groups/tiberium-essence-fans/downloads/cc-big-extractor

Here come the missions where you have to rescue Stalin's top Soviet nuclear strategist. Am I supposed to do this the stealthy way? Maybe, but the fact that the Soviets leave you also for the most part encouraged me to just build a lot of tanks and stomp the Soviet base. Also, finally another map that's NOT a snow map. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9suOxSS-oU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNuWIU4du_s Alternative links here and here.

For someone who likes to complain about the "cry baby team", you seem to be rather sensitive about being banned for a couple of minutes.

Do you have any examples for this forum cleansing? I didn't notice anything. Even Chem's regular rant threads are all still there.

I assume that the devs simply didn't expect anyone to clear the map. It sort of makes sense - if you are in bad shape, the offmap units could theoretically kill you.

Looking forward to the patch.

Xbox One and PS4 are ahead of high-end PCs?

Are you sure? When I record RA1 footage with Bandicam, the footages comes out in 1360x768 (slight divergence from 1366×768). I don't think Bandicam would give me that ratio if it wasn't actually what the game runs at.

C&C1 runs best in 1280x1024. RA1 runs fine in 1366×768 for me. All games past that run fine in an resolution, or at least fine up to 1080p (and you probably don't need to run them in 4K).

I wiped out the base, though. I'm pretty sure there is no special victory condition for destroy every unit too - the mission juts continues until the timer runs out.

Here we go. This time, I replay the Chronosphere defence mission. Instead of just sitting back, let's try to annihilate the Soviet base! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhl2OkpmSAM Alternative link.

Welcome to Tiberian Dawn Redux! I hope you join me for this Let's Play. We start with the GDI campaign, and here are the first two missions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omRrEugutyA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWKmiOJ8isk Alternative links here and here.
