Command and Conquer Red Alert Remastered FFA (Choose your Opponents Carefully)

[@trentvlak]

Fun game. If Red had gone full tank and been better with his unit control, he would have given you some real problems.

[@ZacktheReaper]

Yeah definitely missile launchers can be good against tesla but don't do well against tanks.

[@cwolf208]

It didn't help when he donated like 20 units just driving through Zack's army, that's for sure.

[@Rhyno_C-Ros]

Besides attacking yellow on the right moment, you also had a great early economy start by selling your first ore refinery which gave you the cash to continue building 2 war factories and miners without getting out of funds. Great play!

[@shawn7684]

Well played Zack. It's as if you forsaw your main base being wiped and planned to keep fighting from different locations. Well done!

[@ZacktheReaper]

Thanks:)

[@borislenzinger8907]

Seems so easy when watching you playing ! Good video. Thanks for sharing.

[@ZacktheReaper]

Yeah I know things always seem so easy when watching but completely different when playing.

[@zxbzxbzxb1]

Great battle, you mined an insane amount of ore compared to the other players!

[@ZacktheReaper]

Yeah that's why it is so important to expand and go multi mcv. I had loads more funds to replace the tanks I was losing.

[@thibaultm6111]

Well played ! I've been watching many of your videos this days. And I'm always wondering: where does this accent come from ? 🤔

[@ZacktheReaper]

My accent is from North East England.

What is the hotkey to do more than one build at a time when building units? I've noticed you increment in 5s or 10s sometimes, what button do you press/hold to do that? I haven't found any documentation that shows that. Also Zack > Zac

[@ZacktheReaper]

To build in 5s I hold shift while clicking.

[@mikehotchkiss8975]

You have changed the way I skirmish. That's from a 60 year old that played this when it came out

[@ZacktheReaper]

:)

[@t789yq34iZKJFHWEIL]

Good video, speaking of $5k ore starts: have you seen Leologic any time recently? Havent seen him in ages..

[@Zomaareenleerkracht]

You are right

[@ZacktheReaper]

I have not seen leologic for a while but I think he started to play more unlimited ore maps which I don't play.

[@CraigNiel]

I've been playing a bit of Glitters lately trying to learn it better. 5k start I find it's best to just build 3 Infantry and position them to defend the entrance and go all out on economy. 5 Harvesters to start using one Refinery and get two War Fac up and running then onto more Refinery. Every time I play I seem to be the first target though! Some moron builds nothing but 6 Tanks and comes in and destroys you. It takes you out but they also cannot win because the others are then too strong, it's utterly pointless! 🤣🤣

[@ZacktheReaper]

Yes you get the odd person who rushers but they don't usually win.

[@CraigNiel]

@@ZacktheReaper They play like it's a 1vs1 instead of a FFA. It just takes us both out which is why it's pointless. On Glitters you have no option but to go for the economic start because that's the only real way to win. Obviously the risk is if a noob goes for a rush you're out but if you build to defend a rush the others go economic start and you then cannot win because you're too far behind. It's actually one of the things I love about this game, all the different things that can make such a difference and I love studying them. It didn't take me long to master the mega maps and what works best, I'm starting to do it more with the regular maps but they take much longer to learn due to the varying maps. It's also one the reasons why I still think the mega maps are the fairest because everyone starts the same, with the exact same access to resources. There is no advantage of knowing where gems are etc... You're all equal and GO! It's akin to motorcar racing if every driver has the exact same car on the same track and see who's the best, no one can say the other guy's car was faster or had more grip etc... everyone is equal so you see who is the best. I just wish the damn thing wouldn't lag so much!
