Hey,

My name is George and nice to see you around ?

 

[Blake00]

I joined years ago but forgot to post in the welcome thread haha!

 

I'm Blake. I run a C&C tribute website and Youtube Channel. I also have a Dune website and Youtube too. I play a lot of OpenRA these days, sometimes at LAN parties with my old mates. I enjoy keeping up with the C&C, RA and Dune modding scene and all the cool stuff fans make for the original games.

[Finalzero]

Hello there,

I just joined recently but I'm playing C&C since Red Alert for the PSX. I dunno what else to say sooooo see ya  

[necrotikflesh]

Hello.

I'm Necrotikflesh. I'm huge fan of C&C1 and Red Alert1 since I'm child.

My passions are Music, I am bassist (death and black metal). Read books (Tolkien, Dante, king etc ...) and Video Games (old DooM, Warcraft 2, Starcraft 1, Dune 2000 and many others). I made maps for Doom II, for the French Doom Community ( La CFD )

I decided to do some maps for C&C.

See you soon.

[Inferno955]

Hi.

I'm Inferno, you may know me from CNCNZ back in the days, from W3D or Renegade/APB/Barnz. I also watch Twitch sometimes and am pretty active playing games on Steam. Willing to give anyone my discord, steam or whatever other platform is out there. 

Cheers.

Hello @spencerarcher.

[Hallrapid]

Hello everybody. Just visited strike-team and once saw it's kind of dead already, came here to see if any old buddies are around.

I was playing RA2 around 2007 quite much. 

My nicknames in-game were many, but many could regonize me by my forum names Punkki, Hallrapid or Lounge. 

 

Looking forward to install ra2 back again, and catch up some ol'good Country Swing matches.

Hi!

Holy smokes, this thread is from 2007. But there's forum code that doesn't work in the first post, assuming it's not meant to be like that as some sort of nerd joke. And CnCnet says © 2009– ... So I guess it was imported elsewhere.

I also exist on the AdoredTV forum. https://adoredtv.com/community/profile/gilbert-guldlock/
I have a Steam account with the same name, but since Valve ousted Windows XP I no longer use it.

I've been a fan of Westwood and an occasional lurker in the C&C community for two decades, but never engaged or contributed, so this is my first ever interaction with the community.

I do not like to play competitively, so you will probably never see me in a game, as that seems to be the only thing going on. I only play with friends that like to chill out just like me. If you are like that, you can be my friend ;P

I only played a few dozen times online back in the day, almost only in Tiberian Sun, so I haven't left any mark. I have changed nickname a few times over the years. I don't remember what I used in TS. I did manage to reach a 300-something spot on the rank ladder out of 40 000 contestants sometime in 2000 I would guess, something I was very proud of and still am a little bit. Then people learned to hax0r play it, landing a Disruptor with an Orca Carryall inside the base after just 3 minutes when I just had gotten a war factory, and I gave up ranked matches.

I was going to post an overview of my personal history with Command & Conquer as part of my introduction here, but once I started to delve into my memory, there were more and more things popping up that I wanted to mention, and eventually my ambition turned into a complete exposition. I have almost 1200 words written in a document for this, I really want it to be complete. However it became harder and more time consuming as I went on, and now I'm stuck, as I want to check some dates, but it requires the revival of one or two old computers, which I wont be able to do for some months. So I figured I should at least reveal myself now and perhaps do some other things in the mean time. That's why I registered a month ago but not wrote anything on the forums until now.

I really like this forum design. It's simple and clear, has a good mix of round and sharp edges, perfectly laid out, good colours, technically lightweight yet powerful with all the tools you want, topped with nice, smooth and perfectly timed animations. Like a dream from the last millennium, just as it should be.

Hi, my name is Atif. I am a great fan of C&C games (especially TIberian Sun and Red Alert 2: YR) and of old-school fps games like Doom.

I have played Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2: YR for many years, but never online until recently. I always just played singleplayer or skirmish with multiple Brutal AIs. I even made a mod for Tiberian Sun simply called "TIberian Sun Enhanced" some years ago. I recently just got into YR's multiplayer using CNCNET.

[Rocksocks]

Can you approve me so I can post on the forums? 

[BookerT36]

Hi, new here. Probably a stupid question, but is it possible/how can I play basic RA2 (i.e. not including Yuri's Revenge)?

[Blacknyte]

Had to join after the latest update fix a resolution issue with a lot of the maps I had!

Nice one!

Hello everyone, I'm a Turk. And I am studying in the USA from my friends and Ireland. I send all the rays of goodness!

Hey! I'm Tux, from the Netherlands. Been lurking this forum for a while now and decided to join. I grew up playing C&C RA2 and I'm now hooked on C&C Remastered as well as the OpenRA version of Dune! Excited to be part of this community.

[Rival_Om3rta]

Hi Guys,

 

I'm an old school player who has the itch to start playing again if it's not already dead. Before I do, if someone can answer the below questions:

Is their an active discord for 2 vs 2 clan?

Is their enough players to play 2 vs 2 clan?

Is their a plan to have a 2 vs 2 clan leaderboard?

Any answers to above would be much appreciated

Lastly, Olaf is Legend. My god bro, I remember you saving this game like 20 years ago and I see you still around. Cheers bud

Hey heres' the main RA2 & YR discord people use on CnCNet. 

https://discord.gg/ZZvg3zEYaa

Ladder: https://ladder.cncnet.org/ladder

Clan ladder is in the plans to build but nothings available for it right now.

It's great to see you finally engaging with the Command & Conquer community after being a fan and occasional lurker for so long. Welcome aboard!

It seems like you have a rich history with the game, and it's fascinating to hear about your experiences with Tiberian Sun and your impressive rank on the ladder back in 2000. Those memories and achievements are something to be proud of, and it's understandable how you may have mixed feelings about ranked matches, especially when some players resort to exploits.

If you ever decide to share your complete exposition of your personal history with Command & Conquer, I'm sure it will be an enjoyable read for fellow fans of the game.

I'm glad to hear that you appreciate the design, of this forum and find it reminiscent of a dream from the last millennium. Simplicity and functionality are often key elements in creating a great community space.

If you have any questions or want to share more stories or thoughts about Command & Conquer or anything else, feel free to do so. Enjoy your time in the community and have fun with your friends playing the game at your own pace!

[Anarchy]

I'm Anarchy.

Last played RA2 in 2016.

Want to have classic RA2 experience, meaning no game mods like blitz, no power plant puffs, no Allied with Eagles and Snipers simultaneously; France always allowed and Westwood maps preferred.

 

And remember: No gods, no masters.

 

Sincerely

Your closest anarchist, Anarchy
