Can you rank the C&C girls and make a video out of it?

[@LEXICON-DEVIL]

Personally I go by gameplay so Tiberian Sun is like Part 1 for me, Red Alert 2 is a prequel sequel to Tiberian Sun then finally C&C 3. 🤙 Though I absolutely miss applying concrete 😁 and if I'm not mistaken it's not in C&C3. Concrete was so satisfying to add and tactical. it prevented craters from explosions and stopped underground forces. 🤙 The terrain is my favorite. The dark war torn wasteland of a world is felt furshure. It's why I can't get into the other games. I like the future setting too much.

[@LEXICON-DEVIL]

I used to go to the Boys and Girls Club as a teen and met a kid who wasn't supposed to install anything on any computer but he installed and connected all 10 computers in the room. 😁 Some people had no idea what it was. Smart kid. Because of him I got to play Tiberian Sun, Age of Empires and the Star Wars one with Age of Empire graphics.....and StarCraft of course. I remember that one being the hardest game. Now it's all in limbo. 🤦

Then I got the full version for the PS1, which I played over and over again despite the low-tier controls compared to the PC version. Just awesome memories with that one.

Generals and C&C3 really came into their own with their expansions. I've probably played the Generals' Challenge mode more than any other single C&C game. C&C3 was pretty great in multiplayer too. Really the apex of the series and I'll agree with you on that one, which makes it all the more of a shame that they never produced any C&C games ever again after that, shut up

[@awsomebot1]

Tiberian Sun is the king of atmosphere and intrigue. It has it all. Earth is a barren alien planet with mysterious lifeforms that we only see a few of. Soldiers need life-support suits to thrive. Humanity has sci-fi technology but they're at the mercy of ion storms and the local fauna. All with a great soundtrack to boot (Dusk Hour) This setting could lend itself to a top-down RPG like Fallout quite well. It's a shame Tib Wars walked back on most of this.

[@Chronopie]

Gotta give it to RA2, for introducing me to the series, and Generals: Zero Hour for adding the generals to Generals.

I am somewhat intrigued to see what a strawpoll or some such would show off as a C&C ranking in your fanbase.

[@Revan-kq7ih]

Uprising is often rated low due to its mediocre and short campaign but the challange mode that comes with it is one of the best experiences I had with the series. Playing through it on hard was such a blast. It turns former passive base building players into competitive ones.

[@riptos0074]

The lack of multiplayer killed it for me. Also the balancing is really bad. The Empire is ridiculously strong compared to the other two factions as long as there is any water on the map you play.

[@Kirboyo_418]

I think the challenge mode of Uprising was better than Zero Hour. That's not an insult to Zero Hour since that challenge mode was also great! I just think Uprising's challenge mode was even better for having more varied quirky dialogue, a fun progression system, and actually a narrative behind it!

[@petrowegynyolc7108]

I'd surely rank it above Firestorm, if not above Tiberian Sun. The challenge mode is truly a beast!

[@RainingMetal]

It's a great time-sink, but I would have liked a more traditional expansion pack to have come out after Uprising. One with more co-op content.

There are soo many gems in this series that everyone can have their own favorite. For me c&c 1 (remastered) is the absolute #1 due to nostalgia but also the more sneaky resourcetight singleplayer missions than later installments.

You are missing a game: Command & Conquer: Sole Survivor. It was an attempt to turn the game into a battle royal type game. In the game you played a single unit from the first C&C game against multiple players(I think up to 16). You had to grab crates from around the map to boost your character, but there were still mismatches like the commando vs a mammoth tank. It probably would be at the bottom of any game list.

Red Alert Series will always be my favorites. The absurdity, humor all around fun, the charisma, unit design, it all went for RTS tropes and ran with it. It's like they realized warfare packed into the small format of an RTS can't be really serious and it's rather silly if you try to make it serious, so they went the completely different direction, making up wacky and crazy units that are very creative and fun, instead of imitating something sensible :)

I think a detail that should have been included in the Yuri's revenge segment was that it was (if I'm not mistaken) the first C&C entry to provide unique VOs for every unit. RA2 had standardized VO for all of each factions land vehicles (Rhino tank VO applied to all soviet vehicles). It was Yuri's revenge that gave each unit a unique VO, a trend that carried on to all subsequent series entries. The expansion gave us that great Apocalypse tank voice.

[@Nukestarmaster]

Really, admittedly it's been a very long time since I've played RA2 (once I got Yuri's revenge, I didn't look back), but I'm pretty sure I remember different voices for different units. And I _know_ Kirovs had their own voice.

[@tavish1658]

Im astounded by how no RTS developer team has ever taken the concept of Challenge mode from Zero Hour. It was 8 scenarios that had incredible replayability, for it was a unique experience to each general you picked, as the game had different counters like a rock paper scissors system. Even with 2 or more cut scenarios, you could still run through more than 63 missions before you had completed it all, just from 8 scenarios. That's incredibly efficient value. If we had the 2 missing generals to fight against, it'd be 81 missions. The only game that I know that replicates this is Northgard with its Conquest mode. In that game they even added scaling difficulty along with a new perk for each scenario, from a pool you could pick from. It gives you a new experience every time.

[@fuduzan5562]

For me Dune was probably most played game ever on my A500. C&C 1 when first released was a fascinating game that defined the genre. I didn't have a PC at the time so would occasionally go to my friends house who had a 360SX pc that could boot the game. RA was the game we would hot seat with classmates after school, it was good but nothing less, nothing more. So.. Generals was the prime of the genre. It combined the old and the new mechanics very well. Not to mention it was the first game that introduced a lot of people to MP rts.

And where is Sole Survivor! You are not a man of true taste, Zade: for your lies and dissembling and slander foul even the purity that is Joe Kucan's shiny pate. Where is Tiberium Alliances? Why do you forsake the bountiful promises of the holy bosom that was Tiberium (the cancelled shooter/TPS thing that looked really cool)! No, you even do not stop there. You consign Red Alert, the first promise of the glory to come, to the Heap of Bones That Is Worse Than Uprising. You are truly the Deceiver sent by GDI; a Great Serpent drawn to the glistering hope in our hearts. You are the Corrupter, and it is you that is the true enemy. You are Redmond Boyle. Okay, that was my best Brother Marcion piss-take. I actually do have some feedback. I meant none of that, and all of what follows. Sole Survivor was the worst entry in the C&C franchise, coming out at a time when internet was a novelty, and battle royale and so on just weren't invented yet. It did one thing right: and that is that it was the ancestor of all of them. Perhaps not the worst game of its kind, but definitely nowhere near the best. Tiberium Alliances was a shitty cash grab. I played a little of it, and it was awful. Imagine every turn-based facebook game. Now make it *worse*. That was the lowest point of the Tiberium Saga, IMO. From what I can recall, it didn't even have a semblance of a story. Crap. Utter garbage. Rubbish. It was poorly-prepared brussel sprouts. It was fresh rutabagas. It was turnips and fresh portobello mushrooms. C&C4 did *two* things right. Ish. 1 was casting Joe Kucan as Kane. The other was the music. Which was really nowhere near as good as the previous ones, but it was nice. It was also nice to see the metaphorical colours again, even if they were stained with bile and feces. So about Renegade. It's a very good piece of software! We have RA: APB, Renegade-X, and all the other mods I can't remember for it. It's a basic, no bullshit, shooter. Forget M1 Garands, Tenno Heika Banzai, and BJ Blaskowicz shooting nazis on the moon. This is the king of shooters. You have: soldiers with small arms, superweapons, vehicles, structures, environmental diversity (cliffs, water, and trees! Trees! T R E E S), and points. No microtransactions, a basic list of servers, the UI is simple and uncluttered by 'design'. The story is... there. Okay, it's a fun story. A memorable one, even. The music is great, the worldbuilding is Command & Conquer worthy, and you play as the musclehead jerk that saves the day and gets the girl. It's fun, and not really sOcIaL CoMmEnTaRy. It's fine. Definitely deserves to be remembered more. The original C&C is, like SS, kind of beyond our reproach now. It wasn't the first, and it did age better than SS. But it's really annoying to play, and I really wish that it was just in comic book form. I feel like that'd age better. Still, it is charming, and it feels like criticizing my mother: from a different time, when things were done differently, and this isn't the world where it aged well. I'm not mad at it, just disappointed. I'm glad it got some love in the form of the remaster though. Feels like taking my mom to a museum. Same for Red Alert, though I agree with you: it aged better, and I feel it actually got a little freshened up with the remaster, also like a boomer forsaking homophobia. Red Alert 3 did things different. I dislike the changes to how harvesters worked. I really can barely get beyond that. The other thing I hated was how everything had a special mode. It made for a micro-intensive game that I couldn't just be stupid with. I felt like it took the system of promotion from Generals, but made it all active instead of mostly passive. It really fucked me up. It had some cool things like some of the unit quotes, and I had a thing for Gemma Atkinson at the time. Tim Curry and George Takei and JK Simmons were amazing additions. Zero Hour, I couldn't get past USA Mission 3 on my old Vista PC due to technical problems. So I really take everyone's word for that one being any good. TibSun didn't age the best graphically, but it was the most fun I had in an apocalypse. I really want this to get a remaster. RA2 was silly and had an easy set of mechanics to learn. I liked it and YR so much. I just wish it was longer. Remaster when EA/Petroglyph? I COULD DESTROY THESE WITH A RUBBER DOG! C&C3 and KW are GOAT IMO. Like, these are Zeus and Hades among the dieties of gaming. So much win. So. Much. Win. I just wish I could toggle off the objective cutscenes. That's my one niggle. Uprising I never had. Pity, the Yuriko Omega mission you showed was kinda cool. Covert Ops is just a copy/paste C&C I guess. You could do a lot better, but you could do so much worse. Aftermath and Counterstrike at least added story to my first PC game. Pretty hard to beat that, but very easy to fuck up. They didn't fuck up, but it wasn't incredible. Firestorm. Man, Firestorm. It's the coolest. I just wish it was longer. GDI LIED! Generals was fun. I liked how campy it was. I guess it suffers from the one thing that plagues all satirical media eventually: it comes across as so racist now, that the only people to really 'get it' are those who liked it when it came out - no *real* person would ever be that fanatical about being in the Red Guard, right?! Right?! So I guess my rating is: 1. Firestorm 2. KW 3. C&C3 4. YR 5. RA2 6. RA 7. Renegade 8. Aftermath/Counterstrike 9. Generals 10. C&C 95 11. ZH 12. RA3 9001. Tiberium Alliances The rest I didn't play. If you read this far, remember that KANE LIVES

kane lives In depth comments 👀 I didn't so Alliances and Sole Survivor because a) I haven't played them and would be difficult to revisit now and b) they're fake games Not a bad rating on your list - similar if not for a few key differences!

Who didn’t have a thing for Gemma Atkinson circa 2008-09! She was up to 11 (out of 10)!

[@sferris33]

Hell yeah! C&C Complete collection is finally on Steam! Immediately bought it! I already bought the C&C Remastered version. I loved it but wish it had remastered the others in the series

Imagine if we got Renegade Remastered. I'd buy in instant.
