Red Alert Global League: Season 9 - Post Season Discussion

Season not quite over, but i wanted to ask about the maps, so starting the Post Season Discussion thread early as map discussion is helpful and relevant. Having not followed pre season, how were the maps chosen, and did players feel about the map choice? Maps chosen look nice to me. Wondered if ther...

Re: Return to base/rearm/repair/retreat

Wrench clicking ties in with original game rather nicely imo, and therefore quite intuitive. There are scenarios that support various command changes as a positive, and others that don't. Personally i think the game is too simple and plays too quick to warrant excessive controls. I use 2x grouping t...

On the off chance, try the latest AMD drivers as i see you're on 19 still.

Re: Fourth Shattered Paradise Tournament Announced! Sign Up Here!

I'll play. Have some tendinitis again in my mouse arm, so will likely not play until the day comes.

Re: Questions from a newbie

Tiberium Sun isn't finished. It's playable i'm led to believe?? But is definitely not finished, and campaign missions i have no idea on. You can play Shattered Paradise though, that's 100% playable, not finished but it's in a released and awesome state. So much so we've a few tournaments on it alrea...

Re: low frame problem

Your hardware isn't great, it's a laptop, all be it a new one i know, so it's hard to judge from my knowledge. Try reducing windows 10 services to a minimum. Disable Cortana and other Win10 crap. Close all apps and downloads fully, empty status bar of things. Try playing around with the "frame rate ...

Re: Increase size of in-game build menu?

I'll post on discord as this appears to have got missed.

Lowering your resolution may help for time being.

Re: [Solved] - Ore and Gem value on a map

I think the gradual growth per cell placing is a good aesthetic, but can also pose issues. So being quite meticulous will prevent mis placings that can't be seen which send harvesters on random drives, uneven $$$, uneven growth and uneven harvesting times. But those last two have not been fully test...

Re: Tournament Format Brainstorm

Invite expired.. I'd like to see the next team tourny have random team selection. Maybe even random teams every game. Winners get points, so there ends up being a single winner, not a team winner. SuperNewbie, the oil capture game was an idea i thought would be quite fun too. It has to be called Ame...

Re: Ore and Gem value on a map

I believe you can go in multiples of 25$ with ore. Use the 'total $$$ on map' amount for 1st made ore patch. Then make a note of that number. Times that by 2, then make a new ore patch equalling so the total $$$ on map equals the "times 2" amount. When adding 3rd,4th, etc, just make a note of the cu...

Re: Red Alert Global League: Season 8 - Map Pool

I don't recognise Ice Ledge without a screenshot.

Trapped or Sonoro, i guess.

Merrigold Town needs an ERCC i think. Too puts you behind noticably. Though only saying to prevent future issues.

Re: Map Making Guide

Imho it would be a good idea to start putting this at https://github.com/OpenRA/book, so it doesn't get buried in the forums over time. (I opened https://github.com/OpenRA/book/issues/16 so that we don't lose track of this.) Could you clean the stickies/annoucements that are old, and replace with n...

Re: New RTS Game

I don't see why anyone wouldn't be interested, either a little or a lot. As we're are all mostly looking forward to the new C&C iteration currently in the works. So please do tell and share ;)
