C&C Red Alert 2 And/Or Yuri's Revenge?

[Raptor522]

Anyone else played Command and Conquer: Red Alert 2 and/or it's expansion pack Yuri's Revenge? They're fun as heck when you're bored! Even when you aren't that bored, they're still pretty fun, especially with the few Filefront mods for 'em.

Anyway...am I alone here?

[Talibanman]

no you're not. they are legendary!

[Raptor522]

Yay, life in the topic! Haven't played 'em in forever, but, hey, Tanya's hot in Yuri's Revenge! LOL

[dreadlordnyax]

yup they're pretty fun

i was actually thinking about buying the cnc pack with tiberian sun, as i never played that, it only costs $20, and i have $40 left from christmas and nothing else to spend it on...

You know I would have posted this earlier if I jusr didn't find out today. First time to actually watch G4 in a while. Apparently all 12 C&C games are going to be released in one complete bundle. Command & Conquer: The First Decade Got a 4 out of 5. Time to freshen up on my C&C skills again. Ahh, the nastalgia.

If you do, you gotta get it's expansion: Firestorm. It's really fun. I have played TS, TS:F in a while, but they really were fun. The infantry seem to have the same amount of hitpoints as light vehicles, though...seriously, it takes, like, but Wolverines (if I remember the right name) about 20 seconds to kill a single infantry. Kinda sucks, but oh well, you'll probably be sending out larger numbers of troops/vehicles in that game.

It really sucks Westwood shutdown or whatever the term is (kinda tired right now), as they were working on Renegade 2 and Red Alert 3...DANGIT!

Off-topic : Well, Raptor', might I know what you mean in your last sentence exactly ? Would Westwood Studios have been in bankruptcy prematurely, whereas Commander & Conquer Renegade 2 / Red Alert 3 had been announced by this Company, or did it simply give up both those two "highly-awaited" Projects for unknown or irrelevant reasons ?...

[Raptor522]

...hm...I never heard of any reason of them shutting down, now that you mention it...food for thought, I'll look that up...

...and, also off topic, where is Hijarna's Fortress? lol

[Leviathan]

It seems that Westwood Studios no longer exist independently, and has fully merged with Electronic Arts, which may explain why the Command & Conquer Projects you mentioned above have not been developped and released, since I guess "more urgent" products needed to be finalized before inaugurating brand-new ones...
Moreover, if you need to get details regarding "Hijarna's Fortress" - Which is a location belonging to the Star Wars Universe -, I would suggest consulting such a Google Results Page, as it contains helpful and surprising informations about this place and the materials employed to build it...

[Raptor522]

Stupid smart person! lol jk Someone made a "Renegade 2" mod for the first one...I never tried it...I imagine it would be "interesting" to try...lol

And that Hijarna's Fortress thing sounds like it would be a fun map for SWBF II.

[Leviathan]

Off-topic : Do you have any idea of the possible locations I could download this "Renegade 2" mod for Command & Conquer from, Raptor' ?
Moreover, designing a Star Wars Battlefront II level based on "Hijarna's Fortress" would be possible if we owned previews or Screen-Captures of the concerned Star Wars location...

[Raptor522]

...hm...an image(s) on what the place looks like...might be useful...lol

Anyway, after much searching, I could not track down the mod for you. Google was absolutely useless, and none of the sites I used to go to all the time had it.

[Leviathan]

I am not sure that this address really contains helpful informations or resources, but as it deals with Command & Conquer Renegade 2, I guess it might interest you, in case you didn't know this location before, of course !...

[Raptor522]

...I think I've seen that one before, but not sure...maybe that model pack is what I'm thinking of...I'll keep looking, I've gotten myself curious...
