Each mission in the campaigns has its own set of objectives and some are more fun than others, but that is to be expected. I like to focus on building as many tanks as I can, but it is really up to you in how you go about the game. It never feels too overwhelming, even when you are getting a real beatdown, you never 100 percent feel all is lost, and with the right move, you can make it happen. However, I feel that there is the perfect blend of resource management, resource gathering, action, and micro-managing in this game. I can see some people thinking that this kind of real time strategy action is a bit simplified and in comparison, to what some modern RTS games offer, it is. Making The Right MoviesĬommand and Conquer Red Alert 2 is still so popular to this day because of the gameplay. I like the sound design in general as explosions, tanks and everything else all have some real heft to their sound effects. If you ask me, we were entering an age where voice acting was becoming better and better and this game has some very impressive performances. The only thing I do not like is that some of the maps have water and the water does not move! It looks super awkward and when everything else has a realistic look to it, it stands out like a sore thumb. The buildings, tanks, planes and so on all have a nice look to them. The different maps are spread out all across the world ranging from Russia, France, and Hawaii. This Is What War Looks LikeĪt the time Command and Conquer Red Alert 2 was a fantastic looking game and in some ways, I do feel that it holds up fairly well to this day. The story has more than a few twists and turns along the way as well. However, here you get to use him and also go up against him and it is very well done. Yuri is a fantastic character, so much so he gets his very own expansion. A psychic that they have who has the ability to control others. This time the Soviets are more dangerous than ever thanks to Yuri. America has a molecular bond gun, China has a nuclear missile, and GAO has a SCUD-class missile at their disposal, spreading anthrax.The story that is told here can be played from the Soviet and Allied point of view. The player gains "General Points" by leveling up and unlocking various abilities.īy earning bonuses, you can get access to an air strike order or the ability to repair combat vehicles anywhere on the map, etc. The gameplay differs from Tiberian Sun or Red Alert in that Generals do not rely on protagonists. The Americans are fighting with modern technology, the Chinese are fighting with the number of troops, and the terrorist forces are represented by powerful chemical weapons. The campaign for the United States will demand to stop the actions of the GLA and arrest the Chinese military leader who sided with the eastern terrorists.Īll factions in Command & Conquer: Generals have differences and individual mechanics. The GLA scenario is contrasted with the Chinese scenario. The plot is followed by an incident called Three Gorges. The events of the Chinese script originate in Beijing. The order China - GAO - USA is considered the canonical passage. The states and the Chinese cooperate with each other throughout the game, trying to resist terrorists from the Middle East.Įach of the three campaigns includes 7 story missions. The parties to the conflict are represented by three warring factions: the United States, China and the Global Liberation Army. Command & Conquer: Generals - a real-time strategy game set in early 2010.
