I was always on the assumption that Red Alert 2 was set in the late 90s/early 2000s. Now it makes sense that the Allies use the Harrier Jet as their primary attack aircraft lol

Sacrifices had to be done!

its a russian ICBM so its range wont be going farther than the continents of europe, asia, or africa

and we know it definitely hit somewhere at least once in northern europe according to first USA mission in zero hour

so any guesses to what country and city suffered the hit?

Looks familiar

This game is still actively fun, lots of players are usually on around the evening hours in MST.

I got this memorial board made for my apartment house, but got a call from a city telling me that i will be forced to take it down. damn it)))

(Some of them). Like napalm or most of the explosions. They look so good even nowadays. I dont know how to describe it, but there are no "plastic" effects like in the newer C&C games.

Also projectiles like from the quads or the rockets (ok, the trailing is pretty edgy) are far better than in any other CC game in my opinion.

And here I was with hope

Saw this and got overly hopeful. Damn it.

So recently I had some time on my hands and I began porting Red Alert 1 into a browser based Phaser/TypeScript game. All original game assets were extracted from OpenRA and the game logic is based on the original Red Alert source code published on GitHub.

At the moment the game is 90% Identical to the original game with one primary exception. I scrapped the Rules based AI design from the original system and instead handed the AI control over to a Ollama Qwen 2.5 model running on my local 4090.

I made this entirely 'for the love of the game'. I don't know what direction this is heading in, or even if I want to take it any further than I already have.

I would love to hear from the community for suggestions, comments, or hate mail. :)

I'm making a new map that is a bit different from usual in style. It is a lot less than half way done but as usual, I test every step to make sure the map would be entertaining enough. At least it should carry a vibe and a theme.

Long-time lurker, first post. I'm one half of a two-man studio project from Moscow. Like half of this sub, Tiberian Sun rewired my brain as a kid — the ion storms, the Scrin ship under the ice, CABAL's voice, Klepacki's soundtrack that was somehow metal, industrial and ambient at the same time.

In 2024 we quietly released an album (synthetic death metal — guitar riffs processed until they turn into synths, growls, drum machine). We never really told anyone what's inside it. So here it is, two years later — the confession:

- One track is literally about the first bloom of an alien substance: a living core that arrives from the stars, grows colossal glowing sprouts and turns a city into a dead zone. Basaltic skies included.

- Another track is a purge anthem after a "Global War" — survivors burning out "the sickness of old faith" to build a new world around a synthesized god. Any Nod veterans feeling déjà vu?

- The album's AI-god arc (an artificial intellect with its own hierophants, harvesting human consciousness to build itself) is our love letter to CABAL and the Firestorm campaign.

- And yes — there's a chant that goes "One purpose, one vision!". You know exactly whose line we flipped.

If mods allow, the album link is in the comments. But honestly, I'm posting this for a different reason: we're writing album two right now, and I want to know —

which Tiberian Sun moment deserves a song? The first ion storm? Umagon? The Tacitus? CABAL's final broadcast? Genuinely curious what this community would pick.

I loved both the sega genesis and Dos version

STEEL TALONS RULES!

The game got even closer to the C&C experience by adding a harvesting resource mode.

If the Chronosphere from RA:1&2 did not reprise it's role as the Allies secondary superweapon, what would you replace it with? For I would simply replace the Chronosphere with a CRYOsphere, a superweapon that fires the "Cryogeddon" Top Secret Protocol support power.
