I wish Westwood Studios didn't close down.
I came.
I haven't played any Red Alert other than the third. This should be a nice eye-opener.
i'm gonna try this
Holy mother of god. Too bad I don't own RA3 , I would like to really see RA1 units in 3D.

Yeah. Too bad that they haven't really pushed out anything extraordinary yet. Empire at War was fun but no where near the caliber of the C&C games.

Sometimes I think RTSs should never have gone 3D, there was something about 2D This looks really nice though

Amazing mod. So nostalgic. Einstein I'm coming for you...
Man, I've had the First Decade installed for months now and never got around to replaying anything. Dare I put my entire backlog on hold in favor of nostalgia?

Looks p. awesome, just wish they'd make the vehicles scaled to each other a bit better since that engine has the capability
OH. MY. FUCKING. GOD. CUM EVERYWHERE.
this looks pretty good too bad i set my RA3 disc on fire for ruining my childhood
RA3 wasn't horrible, infact it was the sole succesor of RA2. And before anyone says it was too fucking silly, the whole point of the Red Alert was to use the hilarious characture of the West and East and then make a RTS about it. IT WAS ALWAYS FUCKING SILLY. Now the Tiberian universe got fucked over.
I love the RA theme.

Not to mention the abysmal Japanese faction and the simplification of the resource gathering and total lack of unit balance. Atleast C&C3 managed to stay a bit closer to the gameplay of the originals... even though it did rape the lore a bit.
Does this work with none of the expansions, and for that matter, on a steam version? If so, I'll definitely try it out, since I bought RA3 when it was on sale and played it like 3 times.
AI is much better in this mod than in vanilla RA3.
Now my only gripe is that I would fucking LOVE this mod, if they would add couple of things: Superweapons on/off button and couple more AI "modes" which would be like Infantry/Naval/Vehicles/Aircraft only. For those awesome lengthy defense scenarios.
Holy fuck
So perhaps I'm just missing something.. but is this mod not compatible with the Steam version of RA3?

The gameplay was so mind blowningly awesome that nobody gave a shit, RA3 can not make that claim.
Oh my fuck. This is the best thing that has ever happened.
