[Longplay, No Commentary] Total Annihilation: The Core Contingency (PC, 1998) Hard CORE Campaign

[@Zaku_Meister]

I love how ridiculous the ending is. Just destroy the whole galaxy. Thank you for suffering through this.

[@Chanwsan]

Yeah. Can't beat 'em? Just take everything else down with 'em.

[@PeteOfDarkness]

Literal tableflip.

[@robertpatter5509]

The Core Commander would stay inside the gigantic machine as it causes the galaxy to virtually self-destruct, then step out unscathed and rebuild the entire Core race. Its not suicide. He's protected from the implosion damage.

[@entorwellian]

Core Contingency was really damn hard but fun. The lush planet was super fun because you start with very little building space and the aftermath of each battle would provide you with more land to build on.

Nice work on the final one. I just bested it for the first time ever. The start is absolute hell and the pressure stays thick. (But it still isn't as bad as Alien Bugs.)

[@Chanwsan]

Thanks, and good to hear that. Agree with what you said. The beginning for the final mission was insanely ridiculous, but it got so much more manageable once you survived the onslaught. Alien Bugs on the other hand, was a bloody poorly balanced mission throughout..

[@Jagzeplin]

one thing that just now occurred to me is that unless the implosion device allowed stars and planets to move faster than light the galactic implosion should take thousands of years

[@Jagzeplin]

thank you so much for helping me pass alien bugs -edit- BTW ive found a good way to avoid getting hit too hard with meteors or hailstorms is to save often and reload when u get hit. they land randomly so after reloading it will then fall somewhere else

Hi, how you make construction units automatically nanolate units that are being constructed in factories?

[@robertpatter5509]

You set the construction unit to guard construction base. Then they nanolathe automatically. So long as they stay guarding. Same for if you want them to heal the commander and units. If you make them patrol I think they heal damaged units in their way automatically.

[@danielsank2286]

Reclaim wreckage. You spent the entire first mission metal blocked for no reason

[@RobtheAviator]

Love your channel man. How do you determine which games to play? Seems like you are into games in the 96-2000 time frame. All the games from my childhood!

[@Chanwsan]

Games that I have played or hoped to have played when I was younger (many of which turn out to be rather under-rated). At some point viewers were also giving me ideas of what to play. Last but not least, I don't have a powerful PC to be playing & recording modern games nicely so I'm kind of confined to doing these classic games 😅

[@robertpatter5509]

The Sea Serpent and Scorpion don't seem to attack enemy units. They just attack you. Which is kind of odd. As they are supposed to attack everybody not an animal. Be careful with those scorpions. They can be very dangerous.

[@JondiGaming]

I'm just a TA noob (and have been since 1997), but why is Core harder to play than ARM? While there are slight differences here and there, they always felt pretty similar to me.

[@smokeshaman]

Seems like Vamp and Hawks OP can beat anything

[@GorcStew]

nice
