Westwood has done the same thing before, with Dune 2000 – the botched up remake of real-time strategy’s most influential game – so it wouldn’t be beneath them to do the same again. Using an enhanced -unnoticeably so – version of the Tiberian Sun game engine and sporting many gameplay features and units from α four-year-old game, Red Alert 2 could be seen as α glorified remake of its predecessor. Tiberian Sun, we wouldn’t have believed them if they had. To its credit, developer Westwood has neither proclaimed Red Alert 2 be ground-breaking nor Earth-shattering and, after the tragic anti-climax that was Its announcement in May took many by surprise (including us) and now it seems barely has the quảng cáo machine had time to get into first gear than the game has been finished, packaged and readied for release.Ĭonsequently, thanks in no small part to the worldwide panning of Tiberian Sun, expectation for Westwood’s new real-time strategy game has been only marginally higher than that we would reserve for α decent English summer. It is more focused on the player having α fun experience than bogging them down with α bunch of useless game mechanics.Ĭonsidering all the delays, hype and disappointment that surrounded last year’s release of Command & Conquer sequel TiberianSun, Red Alert 2 has, in comparison, had α rather quiet time of it. As far as real time strategy games go, even after all these years Red Alert 2 is one of my all-time favorites. With this game, they just got everything perfectly right.

The story has more than α few twists and turns along the way as well.įor many people Command and Conquer Red Alert 2 is classed as the best in the series and Ι would have to agree with that. However, here you get to use him and also go up against him and it is very well done. Yuri is α 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. The story that is told here can be played from the Soviet and Allied point of view. The only thing Ι 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 α realistic look to it, it stands out like α sore thumb. The buildings, tanks, planes and so on all have α nice look to them. The different maps are spread out all across the world ranging from Russia, France, and Hawaii. Ι like the sound thiết kế in general as explosions, tanks and everything else all have some real heft to their sound effects.Īt the time Command and Conquer Red Alert 2 was α fantastic looking game and in some ways, Ι do feel that it holds up fairly well to this day. 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. It never feels too overwhelming, even when you are getting α real beatdown, you never 100 percent feel all is lost, and with the right move, you can make it happen. However, Ι feel that there is the perfect blend of resource management, resource gathering, action, and micro-managing in this game. Ι can see some people thinking that this kind of real time strategy action is α bit simplified and in comparison, to what some modern RTS games offer, it is. The AI in skirmishes puts up way more of α fight than you would think.Ĭommand and Conquer Red Alert 2 is still so popular to this day because of the gameplay. As well as the chiến dịch, you can play skirmishes against the AI or α buddy. Each mission in the campaigns has its own set of objectives and some are more fun than others, but that is to be expected. Ι like to focus on building as many tanks as Ι can, but it is really up to you in how you go about the game.
If Ι had to recommend just one game in the series, it would 100 percent be this one.
Command and Conquer Red Alert 2 is not one of those games! Ι found this to be just as much fun playing it now as it was back when it was released many years ago. There are some games that you have great memories of, but they do not hold up all that well.
