Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn & Red Alert 4K Remastered Collection - June 5, 2020

**Mayareira** · 2020-06-09 03:07

I recall Warhammer Dark Omen as the only decent RTS available for PsOne. Must've missed this one back then.

There are some rumors that new Dune games are on their way, but don't think they'll be RTS. A remake would be wonderful indeed.

I heard alot of good things about Dune back in the day but I never got to play it, I was locked in with this, Warcraft 2 and Starcraft for my RTS fix.

C&C1 popularized the genre, but Dune 2 is the grand daddy of what led to be the modern RTS.

Ahh, the glitches with Dune 2 on Dos. I was the only one of my friends with the patience to beat the game with Ordos a they could only get mobile missile launchers from the Star Port traders, and it was a 50/50 chance it would bug out making your delivery, not giving you your purchase and the drop ship remaining stuck, so you'd have to reload. Found out like 10 years later when I worked at EA, when they absorbed Westwood, there was a patch to fix that you could get from FTP that I had no clue on lol.

Anyone tried any of the mods yet? I've never been a mod guy so I'm interested to see how they are

Pretty good first round of patch objective. Looking forward to the notes themselves.

Playing red alert now that i’ve beaten the main c&c game, holy shit so many QoL updates just jumping from game to game.

1st patch/patch notes

**Shenrien** · 2020-06-22 16:10

1 patch delivers more than all of Warcraft 3 Reforged.

**Kaisha** · 2020-06-22 16:15

I might bother doing hard on TD now if it's less bullshit than before, basically mandating cheese strats.

Game still does that thing where it makes the Windows error sound ping during a load screen though, since I like to alt-tab while waiting. Don't know if that's intentional for a "game is ready" thing but the taskbar flash for that was enough for me.

Balance Update and Quickmatch Ladder / Community Content

Some very good changes with reasoning behind them. Put these guys and petroglyph in charge of the next CnC.

**Kaisha** · 2020-07-24 05:11

Well that's one way to address early APC abuse. I figure they'd have either made Engis more expensive in skirmishes to discourage the tactic, or require multiple of them/conditions to capture a building. (eg. only captures if it's yellow/red health).
Too bad for single player that the campaign on hard pretty much mandates doing this tactic against the AI, hah. Least the balancings are multiplayer only here.

**Lucavi** · 2020-07-24 09:24

Yeah there was a few ways they could have addressed that, and I like that they thoroughly explained their rationale and who agreed with it. After playing CnC3 for so long (which wasn't made by petroglyph guys but goddamn if it wasn't a fun game) I was amazed at just how fragile base structures were in the original games. The health buff was needed.
