OpenRA Best Replay of the Month Contest

Hi! My name's AgentAAA, I'm a TD player who enjoys a good battle. I imagine many of us do, though, who play OpenRA. One thing that has been lacking lately is the ability to watch a good battle, however, due to the content site going down recently. So, I wracked my brain for a solution, and as such: ...

As AoAgeneral said, aircraft aren't nearly as bad as you might think. Aircraft ARE an interesting force in TD, as they, at least from my gameplay, exist to punish bad positioning. If you have a well-put together force with APC's/MSAM's, they'll bury any aircraft without much to think about, but if y...

the gate might be disadvantage in that if a unit gets near it it's capable of opening. sometimes, such as when you're building near a cliff, it'd be something you get trapped into. It also means there's no extra cost to the gate, which I'm fairly against. A gate adds a lot of utility to what you're ...

Honestly, I think it might be neat to have both - fully equipped towers and "pluggable" component towers available for players, to allow for a choice. and - yeah, light towers were going to be available for both sides in the beta as well, if I recall correctly, and was the original plan, to work wit...

Wait, am I just bad at this? I always found my aircraft in RA get shot down pretty darn fast even by rocket troops. Are they really "god-like"? I guess if you get a bunch and do a single fell swoop in the enemy base before the enemy realises you have much you can kill a whole ton of stuff but once ...

TD, by far. I never really liked the red alert series until YR. TD's not-quite-so futuristic sci-fi approach felt better to me than RA's history-fi approach. In terms of gameplay, I know the balance very well (thanks to balance testing with psydev). It feels much more rounded, allowing for differen...

Reverse-engineering's legality in the OpenRA engine has been addressed before. So long as the game's non-profit and has original coding I do believe it's protected.

not those particular mods perhaps, but Tiberium Origins and The Forgotten chapter in the modding section are prime examples of exactly that.

the MLRS is incredibly powerful in the current game Meta, due to how quick the projectile speed and damage is(The rate at which an artillery shell travels, conversely, allows the MLRS to quickly fire, and then promptly move out of the way of the incoming shell) Good ways to deal with MLRS as Nod inc...

This thread is basically here to Discuss the Tiberian dawn mod's strategies and balance, and what you'd like to see changed. Starter topic is: Favorite unit in the mod And I'll go with ...
