The C&C Remaster is coming up this summer, so I’m jonesing for some classic C&C action. Remarkably, I never actually wound up playing Generals as I was …
wish someone told him about the aircraft carrier's defend ability. it makes the raptor fighter planes gather in one area and attack all enemy units in the area. aircraft carrier is extremely broken when you mass raptors before you send them to attack
and also the defend button is great since it gets units to move closer and fire on enemies more reliable than the move command. units attack enemies base on how close they are to the center of the circle
Just discovered your channel thanks to a random youtube recommendation, never knew I needed this in my life.
Do you know Metal Fatigue? That game dominated 5 whole years of my life, I'd love to see your thoughts on its unique mechanics. The GOG version works well on modern computers btw.
Crusader tanks and Paladin tanks look completely different. Crusaders are smaller and more lean, Paladins are larger, bulkier and has a more blocky aesthetic compared to the smoother Crusader. The Paladin Turret block is also significantly larger and takes up most of the surface area of the chasis whereas the Crusader's turret takes up a much smaller area.
You're basically saying banshees and medivacs look the same cause they're both aircraft shaped flying units with two engines on the back and a cockpit in front.
Also the Blue Red Green colours are only for the campaign. The factions aren't specifically bound to those colours, its just what gets used in the campaign as a default. In multiplayer you get to choose your colour. So basically everything you said about this game applies to starcraft and everything you said about starcraft applies to generals.
was it this vid or the second part where you talked about video game music? I just watched a great interview with Christopher Tin about Sogno Di Volare. One of the first things he said was "I was brought into the production relatively late in the process". Made me chuckle
I'm very surprised you didn't like GenTool. The scrolling banner at the top is barely present and the tool adds genuinely useful things such as modern resolution support, *widescreen*, increased camera hieght so you can see and handle more units, and even an in-game timer. The tool is very unintrusive and basically used by everyone playing ZH now.
Your choice, but you may want to reconsider GenTool.
My MAC recently went through an update and I lost the ability to run Command and Conquer. Any advice on how I can get C and C Zero Hour back? Thank you.
If you want to play an RTS game that does things a little different from the "C&C, Warcraft, Starcraft" style then I would recommend World In Conflict. If you want to take it even further, see if you can find Ground Control 1 and 2, they are old and not sure how they hold up today but I remember them being fun at the time. An absolute favorite however is Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance.
I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this! This game is, still to this day, my favorite game ever. Watching your frustrations of learning all the different functions took me back!
Don't forget about part 2! 🙂

I got your Missile Launcher right here!
Is the audio off for anybody else or is it just me?

AAAAA YOU one PROBLEM CINEMATIC OFF NO MOVE MENU INICIO
Shawn, this made you look like you have NEVER touched a RTS game before or missed the first 2 coffees this morning 😀 Hope you get it going in part 2!
Typical starcraft player only spamming one unit. /S
too bad C&C Generals 2 was cancelled 🙁
the UN-crate, instead of containing something inside of itself it contains nearly EVERYTHING outside of itself
I don't get why he is so negative to the game's design. The rock paper scissors system was adopted by Starcraft 2…
I feel like Act of War would make Day9 go crazy
lol i knew as soon as he killed his own units USA 2 would be impossible. the ZH campaign is pretty tough on hard if you are new to the game
link to the mouse locking patch
This is a blast from the past. I was 5 when this game came out! still one of the best!
"I am invincible" 2 min later "You have been defeated"
Please play Homeworld, you will not regret it!

This was a pretty cringe playthrough…
so excited for c&c remastered! i really hope they give the same treatment to tiberian sun
Of course this game got released at the height of the Iraq War. It just oozes that vibe.
Damn I forgot where my “tensions are high” verbal tick came from, great blast from the past
Good lord this man likes to talk about crap…
The voice responses are so full-on propaganda "doing what's right". "Protecting our people" while shooting randoms in the middle east.
That flashing radio building that sean is ignoring

hahaha clueless is something that comes to mind while watching this. Good fun!

I still have a voodoo 3dfx card 😁
Everytime I hear announcers say that Starcraft 2 is a fast game, I laugh in C&C. You can literally spam soldiers in the first 15 seconds lol.
"OMG!!! Copy paste, copy paste!!!" lol
Zero Hour was the best C&C hands down!!!
