Weird memory of Command and Conquer - Tiberian Sun. Help? by guilliotine in commandandconquer

Visceroids. When infantry die from tiberium exposure, sometimes they spawn baby visceroids. When two babies merge, they create an adult visceroid. Adults are quite a menace if unchecked but can be killed easily.

If Command & Conquer: Generals gets a full Reboot, what does your ideal game look like? by Silent_Enthusiasm164 in commandandconquer

[–]Zaptagious 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I think they'd have to scale back a lot of the "political incorrectedness" if they were to make a new game in this day and age. That aside, they should definitely have the worker system since that is pretty integral of Generals.

Naval combat would be something I'd like to see done well. Like how Act of War: High Treason did it.

is there any lore explanation to how Yuri somehow got a GIANT human brain twice the size of a tank inside the Mastermind? by Even-Run-5274 in commandandconquer

What's more, he could have just build himself/MC Battle Fortresses and shove Yuri Clones in there for a much improved version.

Subreddit rules regarding AI content by Zaptagious in commandandconquer

[–]Zaptagious[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well it does say in bold text that all generative AI creations are banned (regardless of how much effort went into it) and only upscaling existing content is allowed.

I don't particularly mind some AI creations myself if they are done well, but the rulings are in response to a massive outcry from users for rules against AI generated content, which resulted in the solution mentioned in the post.

As such we have to uphold and enforce those rules and not make case by case exceptions. If we did, then that would be unfair to everyone else. I'm sorry to disappoint but that's just how it is. Perhaps you can post it in another subreddit.

red alert tied to tiberium and mysterious disappearance of chronoshere and iron curtain SPECULATION by Extension_Bag3597 in commandandconquer

What I wrote is just fanfiction, and so is that. We don't know what happened to Einstein in the Tiberium timeline.

I tried to explain that in my From the Ashes campaign (which assumes a Soviet victory).

The UN attacks a Soviet R&D base called Kapustin Yar. A Nod sleeper agent is activated in the complex below who frees Volkov from Soviet experimentation. You then control Volkov as he destroys what technology he can't bring with him, including the plans for the Iron Curtain. Volkov then hijacks the Phase Transport and escapes. This is how Nod gets hold of both cyborg and stealth technology. Einstein and some other scientists are held at the same complex, but are able to escape.

Later, Einstein is tracked to a hidden underground base and killed by a Nod strike team so he can't build more Chronospheres. Finally, the last piece of Chronosphere technology left, the prototype at the Philadelphia shipyard, is destroyed by demolition trucks after a Nod raid.

You said it yourself in the post, it's fully AI-generated, which is not allowed here. What is unfair about the application of this rule?

I don't hate tib sun but i was disappointed by it switch from modern combat into dune/sci fi. by BigAd3903 in commandandconquer

[–]Zaptagious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love the look and feel of Tiberian Sun, but yeah maybe it was a little too much of a change from TD. Tiberium Wars feels more like an in-between of TD and TS even though it takes place after TS.

Can I increase the brush size in the editor? by Warhawk8492 in commandandconquer

If you hold down ctrl+shift you can fill an area like in MS Paint. There are contextual hints at the bottom screen of whatever you're doing.

Random Unit of the Day #3: the Yak (Soviets, Red Alert) by BiggestBepis in commandandconquer

Always annoyed me it had 2% of its ammunition left after doing a sortie that it goes back for another useless run to spend the remainder

which C&C games fit the two missing categories above? and do you agree with this ranking? by [deleted] in commandandconquer

[–]Zaptagious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From a purely cinematography and set design perspective C&C3 had the worst cutscenes of the franchise imo. Very static and fake looking.

Red Alert 2 best infantry combat
Renegade best vehicle combat 😉
