So you'd instead like being unable to select your army at all when there is an engineer in the midst? That's not what I said an engineer should have a higher selection priority than harvesters I was only pointing out that you can't box select an engineer near just about any unit. If you try to box ...

Regarding selection changes, I feel that an engineer should have a higher selection priority than harvesters. As it stands you can never box select an engineer as every unit has a higher priority. So you'd instead like being unable to select your army at all when there is an engineer in the midst? ...

Re: Red Alert ore and ore trucks IRL

The question that bugs me for 20 years already. The whole economy stuff though just doesn't make sense, at least for me. A mine that "grows" valuable ore around it?.. The only possible explanation I can think of is that there is a mining operation underground that dumps its cargo to the surface to ...

I mean the point of the game is to outsmart your opponent with a better strategy. The whole point of OpenRA has been to refine the mechanics and interface of Red Alert so to enhance the player's ability to quickly and efficiently control their armies. Adding in hotkeys and queueing up units were enh...

can someone answer why the APC is shooting air in the first place? It filled a hole in the 2011-era gameplay, taking precedent from one of the FMVs that showed it with a quad-cannon shooting at an apache: https://i.imgur.com/gzjjhYw.png Note that back then the APC was AA only (it didn't grow the ab...

I know that I am in no place to be making balance recommendations in this topic, but can someone answer why the APC is shooting air in the first place? Just seems awkward, goofy and out of place, and def a huge departure from the original. People are saying that Nod's apaches suck and are under used...

Red Alert was originally designed to be an expansion pack to the original C&C. It was developed very quickly - in less than a year, copying and expanding on the mechanics and units from the original game. Ore trucks and ore/gems were simply the most reasonable reskin of tiberium that they could thi...

For what it's worth I think it's dumb and awkward having the APC shoot air and I am in full support of reverting this blasphemy.

Why would be good to give hind back to the soviets? lmao, cause it's a soviet helicopter. it's where it originally was in the original game and where it belongs. And for all the talk of it "breaking" gameplay, maybe it would actually enhance the game by making games more dynamic/interesting with so...
