You’re welcome!

systemglitch,

I just finished a round of Red Alert Remastered. Fun game. I was real good at the game nearly 30 years ago. Got in the top 10 on a 1v1 ladder on some now forgotten site.

nevetsg,

I bought StarCraft remastered today because I had an itch for RTS. Just 3 rounds into the single player and nostalgia is making me so happy.

Maybe I get the C&C collection next…

stoy,

Get it, but also get the free version OpenRA.

They have taken the classic game and made it work on modern computers, they have plenty of online servers you can play on, and the controls are more modern than the original C&C games, left click to select, right click to command.

openra.net

nevetsg,

This is awesome! After StarCraft I can harvest some spice and make sure a worm doesn’t get my harvester.

stoy,

Yep, included in OpenRA is Dune 2000

Their weakness is power, black out their base and nothing can stop you. Good luck

That really took a soviet genius to not protect a whole base side and let the powerplants be overly exposed.

I remember playing this on the PS1 against my friend. I had it on PC as well as Tiberian Sun but it was a PITA to try and do anything with any speed or precision using a PS1 controller lol

Just mass produce a bunch of Tanya’s and send them into the enemy buildings.

I saw some people in the thread mention they’re only aware of Red Alert due to the memes. Which is a tragedy, because Hell March kicks so much more ass than it had any right to for a random 90s video game track.

Here it is for anyone that needs some bad assery added to their day. youtu.be/e3YzmjmAGoI

Frank Klepaki is amazing! He formed a group called Frank Klepaki & The Tiberian Sons for a best of album.

Oh man, that takes me back. Thanks for the nostalgia kick

pyre,

it played during installation, didn’t it? what a way to build up hype. ah the ancient times when EA games had soul.

jballs,
@jballs@sh.itjust.works avatar

Was that EA? I remember Westwood Studios, but not EA.

pyre,

Westwood is correct, i misremembered. EA didn’t take over Westwood until Tiberian Sun, which another one I enjoyed a lot. Still, EA wasn’t complete dogshit back then.

Absolutely one of the greatest songs in gaming history.

Can’t believe this line is the only reason I’m aware of red alert

This reminds me of when I’d have my devs play Artemis as a “team build exercise” and totally not as an excuse to Star Trek LARP at work.

“Let’s get digging!” (I really hope somebody knows this one)

HappycamperNZ,

Best I have is Dig Dug, but that could be wreck it Ralph tune over ruling a few memories

negativenull, (edited )
@negativenull@lemmy.world avatar

Dig Dug is an interesting thought (great Commadore64 oldie as well), though not where that quote game from.

It’s from the greatest game ever made: Lords of the Realm II

HappycamperNZ,

Now that’s a studio I haven heard in years- Cesar 3 and Pharaoh days

pleb_maximus,

Wasn’t that Command & Conquer (which later got the “Tiberian Dawn” part added to its title)?

HappycamperNZ,

C&C was the original, Tiberian wars and Dawn were sequels

DmMacniel,
@DmMacniel@feddit.org avatar

Dawn is the original CnC. Then came Tiberian Sun and Tiberian Wars, sadly they stopped developing the Tiberian series as in no other game came afterwards. Probably for the best.

Then on the other hand we have Red Alert, Red Alert 2 and Red Alert 3. Kinda uninspired imho :)

DmMacniel,
@DmMacniel@feddit.org avatar

Indeed.

Also come over to .org since .de is dead :)

pleb_maximus,

Good musical piece either way.

Also no, I won’t.

DmMacniel,
@DmMacniel@feddit.org avatar

Aww, why not though?

pleb_maximus,

It’s alive enough for me. And I replay like it.

Also, the obtrusiveness of some people wanting me to change over is having quite the opposite effect on me.

DmMacniel,
@DmMacniel@feddit.org avatar

Whelp. Have fun on a dying server with an AWOL main Administrator and where nearly every mod left for .org

pleb_maximus,

Thanks, I will.

Tolookah,

Music instantly started playing in my head, thanks.
