Now that I've been playing the game again, I realize that I don't actually like the Yuri faction as much as I thought I did years ago. Playing against them sucks because of the obnoxious mind control units and the gatling cannons. Playing as Yuri sucks because you feel so underpowered without defense emplacements like Prism Towers or the ability to repair tanks. I'd rather just play as either the Allies or Soviets; Yuri isn't all that fun.

I think that was shown off in the original training video, but yes F_Shit_Fitzgerald posted:Now that I've been playing the game again, I realize that I don't actually like the Yuri faction as much as I thought I did years ago.

Its a reason I wanted to include mods eventually, makes it interesting to see how different things get by experience and outside opinion.

Yuri's Revenge Maps: Campaigns and Co-Op https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Twp4lKWudSo Maps: Yuri's Revenge and Co-Op The final video is upon us. It does not feature any new gameplay footage due to it being impossible to solo the co-op missions, due to the AI alliance "bug". Of the Yuri's Revenge maps, the only one with any must-see secrets was a sniper+IFV spawning on Tomb Raided, but its not special or important enough to be worth recording/editing it in. If you want the free units just head into that corner whenever. N/A Location: Unknown Objective: Reveal Secrets Briefing: Showcasing the Yuri's Revenge maps. Author's note: Exploring the expansion's maps N/A N/A Aftermath: That's it. That is the entirety of Red Alert 2 that I can show off for the time being. Up next is Command & Conquer: Renegade!

Renegade is one of the most underappreciated games in history. I am looking forward to it.

Sadly the Dune games didn't get the CnC prefix, they have some delicious cutscenes.

SIGSEGV posted:Sadly the Dune games didn't get the CnC prefix, they have some delicious cutscenes. We can ask Westwood about that (sorry, don't know the source). Combine that with the knowledge the first post-Dune 2 C&C was originally going to be a fantasy game "Command & Conquer: Fortress of Stone", it seems Westwood had comparable intentions to Blizzard when naming Warcraft: an umbrella brand attached to all RTSes by the company, regardless of setting. In that sense, depending on how you count engine generations and the outsourced Dunes that don't even run on Westwood engines, Red Alert 2 is C&C No. 3.5, 5 or 6, and StarCraft 2 is definitely Warcraft 5 cuc fucked around with this message at 05:39 on Feb 3, 2021 |

Agreed, have a massive, massive soft spot for that game, but will have a lot more to say when it arrives. Nicely done with RA2 and YR though, was a blast seeing them again, def have a new feeling on the whole Yuri faction as a whole, really is sadly a finicky to play, super annoying to play against army in the end.

It's Time... An outlaw hunting outlaws, a bounty hunter - A [C&C] RENEGADE It's time to kick more Brotherhood of Nod rear end, as C&C goes First-Person as The Renegade!
