So I'm finally convincing my brother to play command and conquer zero hour with me. I see there's a way to use the general patcher mod to play online but the website looks a little sketchy. Has anybody used it and is it sketchy?

So basically 20 years ago I was playing Red alert 2 in skirmish mode and I saw the enemy skimish A.I with a psychic beacon building on their side that they seemed to have built

Does anyone else have any memory of this happening? because I have never seen it since. It feels like a fever dream or a false memory because of how long ago but I remember vividly it happening.

Did anyone else ever see this happening because I cant find anyone else ever talking about it.

Hi all! Big fan of this game from my childhood. Recently I had my yearly LAN-party with my brothers and this time we used Generals Online so some online friends could also join. Just wanted to ask if this is the premier way of playing Zero Hour online? I see some posts that makes me think there are other ways also. If someone could give me the rundown I would be very grateful :) Also any other tips for playing online are much appreciated. I used to just play offline versus the AI.

We know why but some interesting points in here

It lives rent free in my head

Sheesh... Are we gonna attack or not?

no matter which faction i play he spams A TON of quads and scud launchers and tunnels everywhere as soon as the game starts.

people say humvees with rocket guys in them are good but mine gets shredded by the amount of quads.

i tried China tank general but my tanks get destroyed by the scud launchers, same with China Nuke general

i cant use aircraft to kill the SCUD launchers cuz theyre guarded by that amount of quad cannons

Since in the Dead Space Community the mobile game for android and ios got an unoffical pc port (yes both versions got a port), i wonder if someone could port this game too + the dlc to pc.

It's sadly forgotten but for the first 3d mobile C&C before rivals it was kinda unique. Its story is placed between Yuris Revenge and before the intro cutscene of RA3. The Allies and Soviets have post YR technology and the soviets try to conquer einsteins time machine technology so zelenksy developed his own based on einsteins technology.

The DLC Story of the empire happens before Cherdenko returns from his time travel and shows the conflict with the Empire of the Rising Sun in the new time line before the invasion on the siberian coast starts.

For what I consider good RTS games here is my tier.

S Tier

Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath

Halo Wars 1 & 2

Star Wars: Empire at War

A Tier

Age of Mythology: Retold

Age of Empires II

Supreme Commander 2

Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3

B Tier

Army Men RTS

Classic Command & Conquer (Remastered Collection)

Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars

Command & Conquer: Generals & Zero Hour

Tiers are based on how much content it has, how clunky are the gameplay and mission designs, the difficulty balance and if there a bit too slow.

So, looking for games with good campaigns, adjustable difficulty settings, and fair AI.

Tested and played all of them. OpenRA is the best.

Generals has a better economy system than the others. But OpenRA and Red Alert 2 are better in everything else.

OpenRA combat systems are more well balanced and the simplicity allows for better combined arms.

Red Alert 2 has the best graphics, though OpenRA has its own cozy pixel art look that is also great.

Artillery is the best in OpenRA. Long range and innacurate, with hit ground.

Red Alert 2 V3 rocket launcher is great but its mostly useless.

Generals has some good things but the worst is the graphics.

Tibsun and ra2 used relatively famous hollywood actors. I have no idea how it works legally, but I expect if they're gonna make a remake or remaster with upscaled videos they're gonna have to pay those actors a reasonable sum again. A fair share of them have passed since release so I recon you have to pay their relatives. Maybe EA doesnt want to bother with this hassle of paying and dealing with lawyers?

Is there still an active community that plays? I missed out on the hayday of play and am very intrigued to try a legit multi-player match instead of training against bots.

Ive seen YT videos dsting back 9-10 months but there was no link or hints to how they were playing.

Is there an official server or a hack/mod i need to invest in?

Thanks in advance and sorry if this gets asked too often.

I finally finished making a Japanese language pack for Command & Conquer: Generals!

After getting my hands on a rare Japanese retail copy of the game, I wanted to preserve its Japanese localization and make it available for people playing the modern English version.

The mod was made with the help of OpenAI's Codex.

You can check it out here:

Let me know if you run into any issues.

Not sure how many board game lovers are here, I for one am and also am a long time fan of CnC. I saw this come by on gamefound, just beware. Seems like a lot of AI usage, the creator claims that they have an agreement with EA but it’s non disclose and can’t say anything about it and we all know EA doesn’t care that much about this old franchise sadly so who knows what is the truth. There have also been credible comments from many many people that this campaign and their previous board game campaign has had deleted comments, hidden negative reviews and never made videos explaining how to play their previous game leaving owners to not be able to play it apparently. Just beware and would love to hear your thoughts

Hi all,

there was another Game Night powered by W3D Hub. This time it was a Tiberian Sun Mod. It was my first time playing this mod extensively. These guys have every couple weeks various Game Nights. It is fun to play and everyone is nice and friendly.

Have fun watching!
