Re: THE NEW PLAYTEST RELEASE: INITIAL THOUGHTS

I've not played any team games for a while now, as i did go through a phase of playing 3/4vs3/4 with naval used a lot. Though some of the guys i do see playing them are regular players, like lemon for example, so it's a shame he's/they're not on here posting regarding that.

Re: Map Design Contest 2018 - Rulebook

Thanks for the answer. :) My map is really new but because of I saw this contest after I called this map as ready I uploaded it to a Resource Center. Mapping for Openra is still very difficult for me and that's how very time consuming also so let it be then for now. Maybe next time then when I am g...

Re: Random AI difficulty suggestion...

Good idea. I think an AI that is brutal but stronger would be welcome too.

As you're here, do you have any other suggestions?

Re: Thoughts from a player playing Red Alert for a couple of months

Perhaps disabling to build defensive structures off of allied mcvs is an interesting option That's an interesting proposal and is a nice inbetween solution maybe. I do think defensive structures became an increasing neccessity to spam since the stance changes. Overall imo i'd like to see what the g...

Re: 1v1 map compilation (cross mods)

Isit possible they be categorised into creator?

If you are not against the idea but cba, i could quote a recategorise it for you. This allows people to find maps they don't know the name of but remember the creator.

I do envisage an IC'd APC with 5 Theifs in being rather funny though

Re: Thoughts from a player playing Red Alert for a couple of months

Thanks for reposting, i don't tend to read the PRs. If a change is done i'd just like to highlight a potential few issues, so if you see fit you can adjust again. A chrono mcv plus WF still allows a demo truck and/or mcv out of the mcv, regardless if that mcv teleports back. And in 1vs1 games a mcv ...

Re: Thoughts from a player playing Red Alert for a couple of months

I honestly think Sovs are better for team games. The IC is insanely good.

Re: Thoughts from a player playing Red Alert for a couple of months

I've found myself some time to reply to this thread now. I saw yourself in a lobby twice, so it's nice to recognise names and even better to hear you're enjoying the game. I wish more people would come forward and give their opinions as i think the only ones coming forward are the ones with concerns...

Re: Creating a servers for friends

Honestly, you will never see a massive influx of players that you can't control by booting them and letting your friends fill the slots. You can even copy-paste a reply to people saying "sorry or whatever" if you didn't to be rude. Having a local server is nice, but i wouldn't waste your time with i...

Re: Creating a servers for friends

It's been so long since i had to touch my router. They all port forward and generally plug and play now. Opening specific ports shouldn't be needed in my experience, but i'm a novice. Running as a local host will require a very good connection if your friends are in other countries.
