I mainly play soviets. Can be tricky to deal with but must know how to use all units. -V2s Vs. Artillery I like that they are different units, I would be against them being the same. If allies don't separate their artillery on v2 shot can kill any artillery that are touching together, where the v2s ...

nice! I was wondering myself where the audio files are kept so I can combine tracks from other c&c series.

First off, I am incredibly grateful for all the work being put into this! I just tried out the 0408 playtest. My comment is only discussing the faction balances. Nice job on the parabombs, they are much more powerful now, and a six minute cooldown seems appropriate. Question: will this be the same p...

Hey, again, nice job on the map. It seems the starting ore is enough, even for 2 people. I played a single player game and ONLY mined one patch in the starting base,using 2/4 derricks, and this was what it yielded me: http://i.imgur.com/byWxkYw.jpg You could possibly add a bit more in the starting z...

From my understanding the tesla tank should be on same tier level as the chrono tank (they even cost the same). Chrono tank seems like a superior unit, so maybe tesla tank could receive some buff? What about a 1-5% chance with every shot to short circuit a vehicle or building for 5-8 seconds?

->HD -> Users ->"your user name" -> Library > Application Support -> OpenRA -> Maps There is a warning about the maps with the playtest, you need to keep them separate.. Once you install playtest it will update the maps in the location above. To avoid them getting updated, copy the folder and place ...

Glad to see spy plane available for all countries. My only concerns are the Allie ability to build mass fake nukes or chronosphere; and the Ukraine parabomb, which iis basically a useless ability. Ukraine seems to have the weakest abilities of all the choosable factions. My ideas for Parabomb change...

EMP effect from MAD tank seems like a cool idea because Allies have the spy power sabotage move, where soviet don't have any means to disable power. Like said above, it should be brief, I wouldn't expect the same duration as the spy sabotage, possibly 6-10 seconds from EMP.

Enhanced Debug menu

I think it would be a nice feature to be able to place enemy units, buildings and defenses. This can be used to simulate attacks. How certain units fair against teslas, etc.

I agree with removing fake nuke/chrono. Ukraine should additionally get the ability to build Crazy Ivan from RA2. This is a joke, right? Why a joke, it fits the Ukraine explosives theme. It does open the door for adding other units that weren't in the original, a door which we may not want to open.

I agree with removing fake nuke/chrono. Ukraine should additionally get the ability to build Crazy Ivan from RA2, possibly with a limited number to build. The parabomb is weak, the demo truck is limited and will become predictable in its use. So either buff parabomb or add in Crazy Ivan. http://cnc....
