1v7 skirmish match in Command & Conquer: Red Alert Remastered with Soviets against 7 Hard AI / Computers. The map is "Star" with "Destroy All" win condition and classic balance setting, default settings otherwise. - Hry
I died a little inside when I saw the miner full of crystals get blown up.
Man, watching this reminds me of when i was 11-12 and i would come home from school and then sit in my room and play this non stop, id have matches where all the ore runs out and you have to decisively sell structures and use engineers to steal enemy buildings. So much fun
watching this on 144p to get the OG feel
wow.. remarkably the structures and units look about the same as they would on classic graphics xD
How do you build buildings without clicking on it ?
And how do you click on a tank when you dont click on a tank what keys do you guys press
@@dylanfaze4779 if you select units in C&C or Starcraft and press Strg and 1
Than are all these units are on the hotkey 1
So everytime you press 1, you select these units (also works with buildings and the numbers 0-9)
I mean thats the trick if you play on PC
the ultimate turtle, find a choke point and fortify.
Great memories! Thank you for the vid, i was so in love with this series back in the day. The radio commands, cavalry tank division and teslas are such a trip!
The single bottleneck path to your base saved you from being attacked en masse from every direction which would have been nigh impossible to defend against.
Yes but every other team has that so its moot.
Meh, a very simplistic and stupid AI. He mined out the middle which was full of high-yield ore and got some nice cash while saving the ore in his base for later.
The AI mines the closest ore first and doesn't focus on destroying ore trucks, so when they mined out their bases and went out for more in the middle, it was mostly gone. So they start to try to find more ore, which exist in the players base so they send ore trucks which gets blown up so they build more ore trucks which get blown up while running out of cash.
All the while, the human turtles in his base, relying on his early income advantage and that he still has ore in his base and isn't wasting his resources on suiciding ore trucks and units one or two at a time.
Not really good gameplay, just abusing an AI that doesn't know tactics and strategy other than "produce units and attack-move towards enemy".
@@nehcrum do you think they have plan to update the AI. It seems the current hard AI is easier than old AI
@@cougar2k720
I have absolutely no idea. It's probably been a decade or more since I played any of the C&C games.
@@nehcrum I actually have the original copy that I bought in the late 90s. The AI that time do attack more frequently than the AI from the remastered.
But it's a 25 yrs old plus game so I guess there is that for AI at the time.
8:35 Nooooo
10:49 AI is like: Fuck that shit, kamikaze time!
I remember as a kid I couldnt even beat one computer
He enclosed his base in one corner with only one entrance, how can you be so dumb? Lets see him play against 7 Hard AI on a plain map.
@@timminh468 he did the king leonidas trick.
@@timminh468 lets why middle age lasted so long
Tesla coils are almost like cheating in this game. 4 of them can plug any gap once your base has all entrances covered with coils and add in a few anti aircraft weapons it's game over.
@@aus3492 you don't even need Anti Aircraft in skirmish if you finish it early enough because the computer doesn't build airborne units until quite late.
I watched your speedrun.
Learned a ton.
And it broke the game for me - I'm too good now. Not good enough to go play multi-player and win or anything; but, I went from "damn, Hard is tough" to beating 4 hard computer opponents.
great vid. always interesting to see other peoples strategies and methods, even given the limited parameters of the game always pick up new tricks or ideas to try. cheers again! 😀
This map was created specifically for this tower defence-like situation, right?
This is so cool to watch, brings back so many awesome memories or lazy days just feeling like i was running my own war in my cozy computer room as a kid, ahhhhh great memories
Affirmatu. Snacknowledged!
reproating
Affirmatu. Snacknowledged! Mission complete.
For some reason this is the way I like to play this game. Great video, thanks for uploading!
Awesome..i never know you could play c&c this fast..easy is challenging enough for me.. great video..thx ;)
"I fear my teeth"
t. Rifleman
I can't unhear that... FUCK!
This was my old tactic. Enough MIGs to take out a construction yard, then hit again on the War factory before they can build a MCV.
AI never build mcvs though
I like these challenge videos. Would love to see you do this kind of thing on various maps. Especially some custom maps.
Do you know any good custom maps?
Tesla coils make best music!
boooOOOOO TSOIK
my favorite unit in the game for sure :)
Uahg!!!
And the dancing stickmen glowing blue before going flat on the ground...
@@Yakushii No its more Chhhhhzoooook ka
Those teslas don't stop zapping for nearly a minute after the 4:00 mark, great gameplay dude 👌
mechanics and shock troopers have the best lines in this game, its hilarious, used to play this game back in like 1997 lol
i got remastered too, the new graphics look dope.
I prefer mechanics and mammoths 4 sure...
@@leonelalmeida7921 mammoth wall with mechanic and v2 spam behind it, always a classic meta.
Thanks for sharing this one. Legendary game
Pretty easy on a map like that, much harder on open space, and the AI usually tries V2 rockets which are a bit annoying against the teslas and for some reason didnt opt for that here. I personally put some flame throwers before the teslas to protect them, can win on worse maps than that against 7 AI
So is this like a new tower defense game or something?
PFFFFFFHHHH
apparently. tesla coil spam, then turtle until all resources off the map. pro gameplay lol
@@whiskizyo2067 Make a better gameplay video if you can
@@whiskizyo2067 Same opinion =) I used this tactic against PC in all RTS i played when i was a kid. Spam towers, wait for the enemy's resource hunger AND CONQUER USELESS ENEMIES HAHAHA. =D Lame tactic =)
This is where tower defense was born from... people completing the missions and finding skirmish too easy and wanting more difficulty...
thanks for the gameplay so much
Your micro managing with units is impeccable.
Very well played.
24 years later and AI still only throws random units at you.
True remaster
And only need a couple of tesla coils to defend
I edited the rules.ini file 25% more range on most units proned infantry take less damage twice the health on everything and half price vehicles and infantry oh and harvesters have stealth. playing against two AI is now harder than 7 on hard.
Alright pal. New to this how do I access the rule.ini file, I can’t find it. The AI is far to easy even set on hard
T K nice one pal. What exactly can you edit through it? I played command and conquer originally on the ps1 and they used to throw waves of units at you can this be done using the rule.ini files thanks
Stealth harvesters is such a good idea.
Hello! love your C&C videos, I'm a new subscriber. It would be cool to see a redo of this but with the ore regrow set to 9.
11:44 beginning of the end
TIP: Get an MCV into the higher ground with a single road for the 7 opponents to pass by, focus your land defense at the main passageway while you build your base. Me and my friends had done this dozens of times in the Red Alert and Generals games to win a 1vs 7 hard computer AI battle.
Such a great player.
Remastered? damn never knew it existed those icons and a graphic look very nice. I still have a very old win98 PC setup in the corner just for nostalgic gaming. With my old RA version it look like a pixel wars.
Tesla coil in RA 1: ☠️
Tesla coil in RA 2: pew pew
My fav map has always been the same since the 90s back when I was a kid, Path Beyond. Play that map with all hard random bots ffa, of course random spawns. It's a fun map for a full game ffa. Or even 3v3s, NE vs SW
I was kid when i was playing this in
98or some
Poland
In dark poor Village xD😊
love this game, the building voice sounds like Jarvis.
That’s the OG sound design king, Frank Klepakaakakakacki himself!
this one sparks joy
The AI nearly always sells up when it is in serious trouble and can’t defend itself
Ahh the good old days. I loved this game, still do and still play it. The only thing that irritates the hell out of me is the pathing. Trying to take a large horde of units through a bottleneck or across a bridge, and half of them turn around and try to go all the way around the damn map to get there... 😡😡
6:50 - Канот деподедедя...
You made that look so easy 😭 I'm replaying this til red alert 2 comes in the mail 😆
Kinda is easy when fighting AI in a choke point and you have migs tbh.
Man, I love watching games is CnC red alert, but it's such a hard game to play.
Either that or I just don't know what I'm doing. Like, do you really need to click on every enemy one by one just to attack them?
Very nice
love new remastered graphics. can't wait until it gets implemented to OpenRA
What's the point of playing a mission like this where you can protect the only entry point of entry on your base (you do mention this near the beginning of the video), AND where you know the other bases are on the map are? Fair play though...you are very good at playing at this very fast speed! You have obviously practiced this map many times ;)
Help! Space bar is only pausing video and not switching to classic look. How to fix it?
That got real mad at about 4:20 😂. I played skirmish aged 10 in 1996, had no clue what I was doing 🤣
ahhh the old "silo hack"
The music from the 90's c&c series are fenominal.
Thank Frank K for that.
I like the jazz jackrabbit avatar!! Do you have any speed runs on those?
no but other people have done it :)
Good job
This Is Sparta!!!
8:34 I could feel the sigh on that one
I had no idea you could even sell units lol. Excellent match!
You can sell tanks etc on Ur service depot too
This was awesome! Have you ever played dawn of the tiberium age ?
never heard of it 🤔
@@StuGames awh man, ya gotta try it out, it's on Cncnet.org
Affirmative
Is it not worth putting like a line or two of walls in front of the tesla coils?? or is it just cheaper to repair them ?
Maybe, I usually tend to stay away from walls because they take pretty long to build :)
I always had the strategy of building coils with a small wall then some flame turrets sometimes in front like the campaign bases but obviously with a lot more teslas
@@StuGames I guess its really a question of if the time used is worth the damage avoided.
brutal!!!
I just tried this strategy, and the ore feels the need to spawn right over the island so I need a harvester to clear space.
This is literally my go to tactic lol.
should have used paratroops make it faster.
I wonder if Paul Bettany is doing an impression of Red Alerts AI voice for vision in Avengers, cos he sounds an awful lot like it, just noticed, maybe Stark was a LAN player when he wasn't building Jericho missiles ^___^
Did this earlier, wasn't difficult at all if you choose the right map and use Soviet
The common tactic for every battle - destroy enemy harvesters and use artillery for destroying enemy turrets.
Can you guys make us a new C&C? Alot of us are waiting for that!!
Great job! Now try doing this at a map where your base doesn't just have one small corridor leading to it as well as maybe even try this with the inferior Allies. Fun to watch, still not sure whether I want this game or not knowing the flaws of it even though I used to play it quite a bit growing up.
nicely cheesed
Can't believe I never thought of the silos to expand the base faster. Thanks!
XD the most basic base expansion technique
original and best RTS game
how do you do it?
nice
how do you make the ai for this game?
go to skirmish and select AI
CPU doesnt use air force and anti air?
this would have been so much harder as the allies!
Amazing! But lol there seems to be a new bug? When you won you got the sound effect of radar dome going low power mode XDDD
I thought that was intentional
@@StuGames Nope and it was fixed today, thankfully. :)
Now if only there was an Edison unit to steal those tesla towers
How are you building builds without clicking on them?
hotkeys!
Why doesn't the hard AI build units that outrange the Coils?
This isn't a dig, just curious. Can you do it as allies without Tesla Coils?
czcams.com/video/ebjDrXT3_1A/video.html :)
You plays like Suvorov. Famous Russian general in service of the Russian Empire at 18 centry, his motto was "not by number but by skill") Master.
Good thing the AI doesn't make use of faction powers, air and naval units.
the best sound in the world is a loading tesla coil.. you cant change my mind.. tesla lover since i saw this game in the 90s as a child..
I wish the map editor let you place those crates
I still play the old version from time to time. The computer AI never builds a navy. Never. It gets boring after a while. On maps with enough water, if you play as Allies, once you have a few cruisers it's game over.
Not using paratroopers all match became too painful to watch
Yeah, I was kinda confused why one wouldn't take free chaff.
Build 2 construction yards for faster building times
Revisiting the Red Alert 1 universe with better military knowledge, the Medium Tank cannot be the Abrams and the Heavy Tank cannot be the T-80. The weight classes were wrong. Based on the era, the most lore-fitting would be:
M48 (or some modernized variant) as the Medium Tank - this would settle the part where the gun was either 90 mm or 105 mm as some modernized M48 variants used the 105 mm.
T-55 (or some modernized variant) re-scaled for double barrels as the Soviet's basic tank. The concept of Heavy Tank would be deferred to another.
When you have captured both sides' War Factories, the dilemma would be whether to build $800 or $950 tanks. They are both so close in cost and effectiveness that they both almost if not make each other obsolete and clutter up your build menu. The solution is to introduce the M60 to replace the $800 option and remove the $950 tank to be replaced with an expensive $2,500++ Abrams that will become the new Heavy Tank.
M60 (or some modernized variant) as the tank available when you have captured both sides' War Factories, overwriting the Medium Tank's build menu slot and will have some areas slightly stronger, some areas slightly weaker than the T-55. Costs $800. There are M60 modernized variants out there which look very much like the Abrams in RA1 cutscenes and fits!
Abrams as the new Heavy Tank in the game. Will be having heavy firepower and armor overriding and filling the Mammoth's role. Available when you have captured both sides' War Factories and overwrites the T-55 build menu slot. The Abrams could even be double barreled as you have combined both sides' tech. Will cost $2,500 or above. Then the old Mammoth itself will be bumped up into a higher cost and power level.
The Mammoth fills up a new power level and costs $3,500++
Tesla Coil Attrition, the best strategy in the game.
AH-nolage!
Some days ago I downloaded Red Alert 1 and didn't never knew there was a 2, or people still playing it
2 is by far the best in the whole Red Alert universe. The ability to put infantry (GIs or Conscripts) into civilian buildings is awesome and makes for some interesting strategies. You can also capture oil derricks, hospitals, civilian repair depots, and airports for special abilities and bonuses. And each nation also has a special unit (England has snipers, Germany has tank destroyers, iraq has desolators, US has airborne troops, france has the grand cannon, libya has demo trucks, russia has the Tesla tank, and cuba has terrorists)
@@wmns4314 Can it still be played online?
@@ivanbarton4475 I'm not sure, there may be some servers on cncnet but I'm sure there are many people still playing (once it gets remastered itll probably start up again though)
@@wmns4314 That's pretty damn cool
On ps1 it was pretty slow when battle was happening
Damn I want them to make Tib Sun and RA2 remastered. Dune 2k and Battle for Dune too.
I love Teslatower 🤣
How you can build new tanks every 4-5 seconds?
He has the game on a very high speed. Plus, if you have more than one war factory they build faster.
Обажаю эту игру!!!!
How do you build buildings without clicking on it
hotkeys!
Why not drop the paratroopers once in awhile?
Legacy of Tesla indeed.
