Command and Conquer 3 : Kanes Wrath Expansion

Having a bit of trouble on the mission "The Betrayal of Kilian Qatar".

I'm finding it impossible to get my Saboteur past the defences to capture the building... my ally doesn't really do enough to distract the enemy defenses, sending in only a few units at a time while keeping loads back at it's base :rolleyes:

Essentially this means that the enemy can keep rebuilding it's Obelisks which protect the base. I've tried sending my commando in at the same time as my teammates and managed to blow up 2 power plants during a short period when the two central Obelisks are down, but even this doesn't shut down their defenses. The respawning Obelisks are just too powerful and wipe her out before she can do any serious damage. From what I can tell the enemy has a very strong economy and can spam Obelisks at will.

I've also tried just going for a 'rush' tactic, sending my commando and sab straight in there for the objective while being covered by allied fire, but it doesn't work, my sab is too slow and the Obelisk nearest it always blaats me due to it being out of range of my comrades.

So, any tips?
Do I need to load an earlier save and not blow up so many buildings to try and increase their power consumption?
Or is it just a case of rushing and picking the correct route?

before the final ring of obelisks there should be 2 sets of 3 power plants on either side of the right hand side entrance that you can destroy by shooting the barrels. this then powers down the obelisks on this side of the temple and you should be able to send your saboteur in.

iceblade: I've seen on the official forum that it seems to be accepting just random series of numbers so I'm not sure if it will properly accept just your kane's wrath key.

Someone please tell me why i'm not surprised? ah well, i guess i don't really care about the beta, so i'll survive. That said, EA have a long way to go before they catch up with Steam... even locked my out of my own account just cos their forum system is buggy...

ta for the heads up...

Ah, thanks - because the two power plants are *right* in the top corner of the map, I hadn't revealed them.
 
Is anyone else finding the AI a lot harder in the expansion? I mean I am struggling occasionally to even beat the AI on Medium...

I thought the AI was rubbish this time round.... Just sends the same 4 or 5 units to attack the same place which last about 15 seconds against base defences. This is on medium but i found CNC3 much more difficult/irritating.

The new units are nice but the redeemer is a bit of a let down. He's too slow and a bit stupid. The new artillary are awesome tho (If a little overpowerd!!)

I agree about AI, its rubbish, I can easily beat several Brutal AI's where before I would struggle a bit.
 
Finally finished it on hard and although it was good to get the back story and the factions were good the AI was god awful and the last mission a complete let down!

Was expecting the AI to get better not worse. If im playing a hard campaign i expect more than 3 squads of zone troopers and 2 orcas to assault my base every few mins.

Onto global conquest now ^^
 
Have found the expansion ok(ish). The cheesy acting for the cut scenes is everything I hope and expect but I to have found the AI a bit 'Odd' at times also some of the new Nod units have added a bit of an imbalance for me. I also find Global Conquest so souless and boring it makes me want to cry :(
 
I'm loving some of the new weapons and upgrades :).

The marv is a little silly allthough great for havesting at the start of Global conquest missions.
Global conquest could be so much better a Little disapointed. I mean to attack groups are so small. When you build a base as a mission it doesn't stay. Maybe the next C&C they'll keep Global conquest but add to it as I like the idea.

How do you log into multiplayer? Does it use the same login infomation as previouse c&C games?
