I had some fun today playing C&C Generals. USA vs USA:D I won but with some prety big losses. See the pics below:)
These screenies where taken in the last 30min of the match.













On the city pic, thats just a small part that was trashed i think about 80% was destroyed. Took me ages to conquor as i played it on Hard. I am getting better though. I shot the particle cannon 3 times before i had the chance to rampage into there base. Mainly targeted there power stations to disable base defences but those damn LAW soldiers are annoying.

So who more here plays Generals?

Comanches are teh shiznit.

Picked it up today.

Now for that vid card...

Ooooh hehehe... wonder if we could get something like that into FS2....

[Warlock]

Bah....I got this POS game from a friend Sat,...since his system won't run it,.... and half the time I'll get into a mission and POOF some BS "Sorry you've had a serious error" ,.....and man do not try the Generals forums ..... ack! From what I've read there V gaves us better support on FS2.

Sadly it seems the error is caused by various reason... one of which is if you've got RAM from different companies (Funny I've never had a problem before with varied RAM chips from different manufacturers )

Seems while the game works for of folks,...there's just as many folks it doesnt,....and little to no responces from EA on the issues. (The error message actually tells you it could be from caused by *Lists 4 reasons* and suggests you read the forums for suggested user fixes.

[Darkage]

I dunno about those problems:)

Seems that there forums are prety fu**ed up.

They sure are when there are not allot of base defences or rocket soldiers, or they fall out of the sky like buckets.

Dude ... you want to whip ass and take names. .... play as China ... set up a squad of 6 Overlords,... two Gatlings,..Two Bunkered with 5 rockettroopers, 1 Propaganda. Set them as a Team and just roll throw an enemy line,..the gatling versions keep the air cleared,..the bunkers ones whip out anythingon the ground,...and the Propaganda one provides healing bonues to the rest

Treu....never thought of that.

I useualy nuke battle groups with those nuke cannons and also some inferno cannons and flame trowers or overlords with gatling turrets to wipe out any soldiers that are around.

I tend to use them as base defense till I know where to strike at the enemy. I'd rather not lose them.

[Warlock]

For a good fast hit and run.... Aurura bombers You'll nearly always loss them if sending them into the heart of an enemy base,... but if you can get just a fast peek at a base layout it still shows buildings,.. just have to hit crtl+fire to target.,....heh can be pretty rough hitting the enemy's central command with 4 bombs in a row


Or for more fun... set up hellish defenses ... so much you can ignore your own lines for a bit.... then build several hangers,.. enough for at least 2 bombers per major building (anything over supply depot level) then in one major swing you can take out everything then follow up and whip out their builders *poof* screwed.

I only realy use them to as CAS units for my tanks that encounter both soldiers and enemy tanks. But i also use them with rocket pods to destroy some tanks if there are more tanks than i have. Thats mostly after a major strike.

Can't you put units on a map using the world editor?
I am not sure if you can as the world builder is *****ing when i want to open it.

[Turnsky]

no meant i wanna turn the photon uplink into something like 'the finger of god' (extend beam life/damage speed etc)


:devil: :devil:

[Darkage]

aah:)

there are some tools, but i don't know where though, its like the big viewer used to extract Homeworld big files.

[Knight Templar]

I was doing the same thing last wekend, except I had 9 Photon Cannons and a Captured Nuke Silo going on

[Solatar]

I play Generals. It is awesome....

So far I have the A-10 buildeable, the original...hover Crusader, working on the Leopard.:thepimp:

[Stryke 9]

Bah. It's eye candy, and even as eye candy it's barely better than '2150. Go play Homeworld or Ground Control or Close Combat (especially Close Combat), then come back and say this is a strategy game.
