That's why I disliked C&C3, because it never felt like continuation of my favourite C&C games - TS and FS. I enjoyed the gameplay and the mods but absolutely hated the story, especially from Nod's perspective.
The Shock Trooper is now too difficult for me to use in an anti-infantry capacity due to my high ping, having to connect to the EU from the US. That’s why I mainly use the unit for anti-armour purposes only.
I will take the advice of @Pushwall and aim for the legs.
Awesome! Thank you everyone for the work you're doing on this game. I only wish I wasn't at work and playing this instead earlier when a bunch of people were on.
