Red Alert 3 hate

[JemJar]

On that note, everybody dance now!

OH SNAP!

I'd never seen that before. It is truly a thing of wonder. I am honestly crying with laughter.

P.S. Does anyone want to co-op some campaign action? I bought RA3 on Steam a few days ago when it was super cheap and I'm just about to start the Empire of the Sun campaign.

It's a good game. I just feel it can't match RA2. Which is hard anyway. If there is something I hate about the game then it's the destruction devices you get with EXP. I don't mind perks like cheaper tanks or something like that but kamikaze was really annoying. Free destruction (or cheap) and quite fast recharge.

I dont really like any but the first C&C game. I kinda liked 3, but barely. Plus since it has nothing to do with the origional's story (or even universe) also makes me avoid it.

it's not quite as good as RA2. which for the slavering fanboys who put RA2 on a pedestal, is often enough to have the game condemned. sad, but there it is.
so initial reaction and feedback is of disappointment, plus the usual people who genuinely don't like the game etc etc, hence why it seems to get a bad rep imo.

I enjoyed it, still prefer Dawn Of War though

I knew going in that it wasn't going to be like the other Red Alert games, so I didn't let that bother me too much.

I bought the game used and actually enjoyed it, but I remember things I didn't like included the cartoony animations and the over-the-top cheesy dialog. Also, I bought it for the 360, a mistake considering that most RTS's dont translate well to consoles.

haha rookie mistake

It was alright, but it could've been a whole lot better, had EA not released a C&C every year and actually supported their games instead of forgetting about them.

Haha, for sure...though in my defense my laptop isn't in any shape to handle a graphic-heavy game like RA3. I played the Demo on it and it was a complete lag-fest, so from where I was sitting my options were limited.

 

[HK_01]

It's a good game, but not anywhere near RA2, which is still one of my favorite RTSs.

 

[Comrade Azza]

It's nowhere nea as good as the last Red Alert games, but it's still a really enjoyable game. Now, C&C 4? NOW we're getting somewhere.

 

[Ilikemilkshake]

i enjoyed it for a while but definatly not as good as the the previous iterations... but then they rarely are

 

[Tekkawarrior]

RA3 is awesome, it's one of the games that I would not reject a LAN party for.

 

[AllLagNoFrag]

I bought it about.... 5 months ago. Went right through all the campaigns. Well, by itself, it is actually quite an enjoyable rts. I dont see many things that would make it a bad game. The campaign was reasonable, the actors were good and the units were funny.

Multiplayer wise, I found myself playing the Soviets alot. (screw quick airstrikes, send in your Kirovs and demolish the enemy!)
