Red Alert 3 Beta

[Dark88]

How big is the Beta? full game? single player as well as multiplayer?
still available if i buy the kaney game?

its just multiplayer atm if I buy kane's wrath you'll join the queue for a beta key yes.

I think its on the road to being my favorite RTS.

It's definately not another Tiberium Wars, this feels totally fresh. All the units have interesting secondary abilities and no unit feels useless, which is very rare in RTS!

[scouser_jmc]

It's annoying me now. The maps are to small and it's full of rushers. I prefer long slugging matches. But the most annoying thing is I can't even build the high tech stuff to see what it is like.
Roll on the full game.

Is there no single player skirmish mode in the BETA?

Anyone managed to get it working on vista 64 bit??

nope
2 or 4 player multiplayer only. Also only two maps.
I expect it's due to C&C always plagued with online play problems. Which is why they are testing it.

Try playing 2v2 or Free For All on the 4 player map, often time for teching and building up on those I have found

Definately will be better when the larger maps are out though

2v2 just tend to rush. Just had a 4FFA and I was just about to build my first ever top rising sun ship and the game completely crashed had to reboot vista ..
I had a loads of units and had repelled several attacks ..

I have it running on vista 64, didnt do anything special just installed and I was on my way, seems a little flakey from time to time though, random crashes seem to be the order of the day really.

Yeah, having problems with fileplanet I think. SO if anyone can host it, that would be great
