Great game!
Yeah, there was an annoying slow-down bug on multiplayer. But I think that may have got patched out with the Origin C&C Collection.

Great game!
Yeah, there was an annoying slow-down bug on multiplayer. But I think that may have got patched out with the Origin C&C Collection.
The desync bug didn't get fixed, myself and a buddy bought the Origin collection specifically in hope that the issue would be resolved.
Must have spent hundreds of hours playing the various mods, there was a really cool sci-fi style one that added a bunch of factions with very distinct playstyles, I seem to remember one of them being a Terminator style thing. Ended up giving up entirely after the Origin launch as it was just insanely annoying to get the 'mismatch' error after 40-50 minutes, just as the game was really starting to ramp up.

I haven't personally but two of my friends have and they still get the problem, that's with both of them using the file and the stock game installed through Origin.
I replayed Generals and zero hour USA campaign, plus the generals challenge over xmas. And a few skirmishes. Bought the C&C collection for a few quid. Was still fun to play. Didn't try any of the other games again yet though. I did do millions of hours of RA2/YR back in the dial up days too but haven't touched that one in forever. Generals still holds up ok when you edit a few ini file settings for camera height and resolution.

Ahhh! Didn't realise you could do this. Will look into this later on! Thanks.
I tried playing recently but got annoyed with the camera pretty quickly. Last time I played it I had a 17 inch flatscreen monitor and thought it was awesome!
Yeah same when I tried years ago. Only discovered it this time when looking for how to set the resolution to 2K. I think the setting was something like maxcameraheight=1100. Or something along those lines. It just makes the camera a bit more zoomed out so you can see more of the map. You can change the value to whatever you like (though I assume there's a max value before it explodes), I'm not actually sure what I had mine set at but I think it was around that value (not at home PC so can't look now).

There's a mod for Yuri's Revenge which comes with a few coop campaign missions. It's really fun and would recommend it for people who like Coop things.

You on about Mental Omega?
No, it's a little one called Deezire, but if Mental Omega has it then I will definitely give it a bash. I do have fun doing silly things in coop missions!

Just looked it doesn't look much different to normal yuri.
It isn't it's a fairly simple mod, but it adds a lot of units and the coop mode that I mentioned. It's a good little mod in my opinion.

They were making one a fair while ago but it was eventually canned. I reckon it was because of all the backlash when they announced it was going to be P2W, but EA cited other reasons.
Generals was great such brilliant humour with the GLA. It was actually hugely popular in the ME too (probably still is).

That game was online only free to play game where you bought things like microtransactions. It was a C&C game in name only and I am glad it never saw the light of day. A proper Generals remake would be fantastic though.
While we're all waiting... I just stumbled across this RA1 mod for RA3. Looks pretty sweet, think I'll give it a try.

RA3 looks terrible! I never played it for this reason. Too slow game play as well.
