Red Alert 2: [YR] - Top 10 Engineer Uses

[@CnCDune]

6:55 when an engineer captures a building in TibDawn through RA3, any units docked with that structure are captured too. This is valid for Helipads, Service Depots/Outposts, etc. But there's one exception when it comes to Harvesters docking with Refineries: in RA2YR the miners just undock without changing the faction. I tried it several times after giving the miners an awfully long unload-time, but the only thing that happened was the miner no longer unloading.

[@stef9906]

Played this game a lot, but never knew that engineers can defuse Ivans special present

[@3arooshy465]

same lol

[@NeilRoy]

Same here.

[@HeIsAnAli]

“Bomb has been defused!”

[@clarencecapacite935]

Same for men

[@FRFFW]

Well there is event animation for it

[@BuyoganExtendedStories]

3 things I learned from this video: 1. Engineers can defuse Crazy Ivan's bomb 2. Engineers can kill ships by repairing bridges 3. A captured air base's aircrafts can be placed in your own air base

[@Alstar]

Fun fact about repairs: According to my (absolutely terrible) calculations it appears that repearing every building from 1% to 100% costs about 12% of the building cost. Which also means that repearing via Engineer is only cost effective in case of fixing a badly damaged Super Weapon (500 of Engineer cost vs 600 cost of SW repair from 1 to 100) Ofc however it is better to spend money on engineer for faster repair from nearly 0 to 100 instead of buing 2k/5k structure again.

[@olenhol2przez4]

its better if you have clone vat

[@derkatwork33]

True story. I’m an engineer. I once saved a building from collapsing with only a power drill. And a wrench.

[@Free_Russian]

Tell us better how you can handle Terror Drones. And this Crazy Ivan thing looks pretty cool.

[@detaaditya6237]

Also did the paint job

[@umi3017]

[@bbglas007]

Do you drive an IFV to work?

[@Xtoxinlolinecronomicon]

I bet the poor guy has a severe PTSD of dogs though.

[@NeilRoy]

I never knew engineers could defuse bombs in this. I also loved the idea of using Engineers as bait for Yuri's defenses, brilliant.

[@stylesrj]

When I was a kid, I would test a lot of things with Engineers. One thing I discovered was they had some sort of attack when you force-fired on the ground. I think I then looked it up on an editor program and noticed it was called "DefuseKit" and it clicked... "These get rid of Crazy Ivan explosives, right?" and yeah...

[@buizelmeme6288]

Woah, impressive

[@Beriorn]

There's also the infamous waypoint exploit: if you send an Engineer into a transport like a Halftrack, then before the Engineer reaches the vehicle you quickly move over to your opponent's base, hold down Z, then choose an enemy's building, upon leaving the transport the Engineer will immediately make a run for the building you clicked. This makes Engineer rushes all the more dangerous. It also works for Spies, but if you have trouble doing this with several Engineers at the same time try to do it one by one. This works in both the base RA2/YR as in Mental Omega, but in that mod Engineer rushes have been nerfed because Engineers are now more like their Red Alert 1 counterparts.

[@tg.Sacred]

I wouldn’t say it’s an exploit but a good strategy to use!

[@KainKiller1993]

People do that in the QuickMatch. It is pretty much necessary how fast you need to be and in fact there is a delay for units to respond because of latency. Very good when doing seal/Tanya IFV.

[@icer1249]

6:42 lets be honest, we all tried to capture the miner on that mission at some point

[@CnCDune]

Too bad it doesn't work in RA2YR, at all. I tried it several times after giving the miners an awfully long unload-time, but the only thing that happened was the miner no longer unloading.

[@mikemulto2378]

One thing you've missed: As long as the target unit will not fight back, engineers can attack them... *_With their suitcase_*

[@thelightside77]

Lol for real? 🤣

[@prestonnewcomb5991]

Wen I was a field tech years ago we were told that we weren't allowed to carry a gun. The running joke was that our Toughbook could knock someone out if needed.

[@Hirmikss]

Ah yes the engineer and the mind control bucket of paint.

[@Marine_Dynamite]

Funny that only Yuri's enginners know that they are painters

[@tling321]

I don't get it could you elaborate?

[@Marine_Dynamite]

@@tling321 Yuri's enginners say a building needs a paintjob when ordered to capture

[@rps215]

Also because of foundries or whatever in C&C3, which are essentially cheaper secondary construction yards, this was OP because people will do this with 5 or so high tier defensive structures or READY before capturing something, then erect them all at once in the enemy base. This was nerfed later that only construction yards can make defensive structures.

[@godspeed6318]

In Red Alert 2,there was actually a glitch that is still available in these days where you can actually sabotage your own base,which is engineer and spy.Basically you have to damage the building first,then you select an engineer and put two waypoints,one that is close to the building before you're about to enter it and second of course when he enters the building,same goes for Spy.Unfortunatelly this glitch was fixed in Yuri's Revenge :(

[@gloweye]

Capturing a Harvester along with a Refinery was a lot easier back in Tiberian Sun.

[@Funkin_Disher]

The difference between harvesters gradually transferring the load vs just dumping it

[@itsmajgc6158]

It is also easy in ra3 except the empire that has ability to switch to turret

[@CnCDune]

It's impossible to pull off in RA2YR. The miner will just stop unloading.

[@4rgenn]

OMG!! he can shoot down Crazy Ivan?! in 20 years of gaming never found that! awesome man!

[@gegessen159]

I think it was also possible for Engineers to repair pillboxes. I'm pretty sure I saw that in some stream. The engineer did not enter the structure, but it was repaired

One of my favorite and totally impractical uses for engineers is to take over a power plant then build a nuclear reactor in their base, and a few sentrys to destroy it for a nuclear explosion right in their base. very fun.

[@michaelandreipalon359]

Ah, yes, the easy way to make your enemies taste their own medicine a.k.a. be pwned by their own captured tech. 0:07: Mass gangbang, Engineer edition. No. 9 feels like a risky waste. How do No. 10 and 5 work in a real life perspective though? No. 4. Highly underrated, yet all too dependent in the Commander knowing what they're doing. No. 3 sure is a nice unconventional tactic... but only if you're a French commander. No. 1 would only work if you have a Korean foe. Also, you might want to maintain them and protect them a whole lot.

[@saquoiafighter]

6:55 I think that those Miners are not set to SwitchHouse when they are docked with the Refinery.

[@itsmajgc6158]

If you have a right timing they can switch sides it can be done this include ra 3

[@Tucher97]

I am very spoiled by the other CnC games due to the fact that RA2 has a severe lack of AT infantry. Plus the one ally mission where the AI kept spamming iron current and nukes, making it near impossible for me to make serious base development, I mean maybe because I am a normie and never played teh style of red alert 2. I sort of wish engineers could repair civ buildings in RA3 and CnC3. Also in my opinion capturing a super reactor is a far better solution rather than destroying out right for reasons of 1. you get a massive power boost. 2. sell the structure to get a hefty amount of credits and onto number 3 3. sold super reactors do not leave a radioactive mess. I do not know if the dozers in generals can repair civ structures.
