In the outdoors vs indoors debate, I am going to assume we are in fact outdoors with the full base composition. That gives us a Heavy Tank and an air unit, and likewise gives the Allies a Rocket Soldier to counter those two.

Amended.

Given the setting of Dark Horseman and defectors, I would assume any 3rd party are likely pro-scum. Didn't think about the scientists. In any case, I would assume we don't have to worry about a third-party building.

I'll stir your pot.

Wew.

As promised @NodGuy, a Steam tutorial. Was going to PM you, then thought why not a thread for others to use. Disclaimer - Red Alert: A Path Beyond is not and will not ever be available on Steam. As much as we all would want it, we cannot forget copyright and all that. Okay! So if you have me, Silverlight, Pushwall, or ChopBam as friends on Steam you may have seen us playing Red Alert: A Path Beyond from the Friends List. In this tutorial I will show you how to do this. Step 1. Add a Non-Steam game to your Library Probably your easiest step, I hope. Just open your Steam account and find your Library tab. And then find + ADD A GAME... and then select Add a Non-Steam Game... Step 2. Locating your APB game.exe Once you select Add a Non-Steam Game... you'll come across this. Select Browse... and search for wherever you placed your W3D Hub Launcher. My preferred method is simply finding your shortcut and opening the file location; Find your games folder; Open apb-release; And select game Of course, you can also find it by going this other route: OS (C:) >>> Program Files (x86) >>> W3D Hub >>> games >>> apb-release >>> game.exe Once you have done that, your game.exe appears in the list of programs to add and is checked off. Select Add Selected Programs and done! Step 3. Renaming game.exe and connecting to the server. You now have APB in your Steam library, though as you can see it is using its file name. Not only that, if you start it from this shortcut now you will only launch single-player LAN mode. Here's how to change that. First we right-click on game and select Properties. You will then come across this. Here we are going to want to change two things; the Title and the Target. 1. Where it says game, delete that and type in Red Alert: A Path Beyond. Silverlight and the others prefer the full Command & Conquer: Red Alert: A Path Beyond title. Whichever you prefer is fine. 2. In the Target: copy and paste this at the end after the quotes. +connect 178.162.193.144:9016 +playername YourNameHere +multi Important: Note the YourNameHere in the Target and change it to your ingame username. Can't have several people all trying to connect under the same name. What you should come out with is this. And in your Library you now have Red Alert: A Path Beyond! You can now hit Play and join the server right from your newly created Steam shortcut! And your friends will see that you're online too! End Tutorial And that concludes this Steam tutorial! As it is a Non-Steam game your playtime will not be tracked, but when you hop ingame you do get the Steam overlay. Just hit Shift+Tab and it opens. You can then take screenshots through Steam and chat with your friends while playing! Thank you for your time. I hope this tutorial becomes of use to you and I'll see you ingame!

Infantry maps, but with one side playing as Allies and the other playing as Ants.

Oh boy, the more the merrier!

What did happen to Fissure? Or RockTrap even? FOI?

Would be glad to.

I'm game.

Had to put this somewhere. 1:05:54 AM ~Volkov [GENERAL] Current game on map RA_AS_Seamist.mix has ended. Game was won by Allies by Building Destruction. It was a good round for us on the Allied side. Shout out to Furs, Testament, and Momok for the awesome team we were.

"Total of 1263 players have joined the server. The newest player is MustaphaTR." I'm happy to see it worked out for you, Mustapha. I'll be seeing you ingame!

My vote stands for the option against a Q deploy button. I don't see a need for it.

When the pivot change got implemented, I just couldn't hit anything like I used to. I stopped buying artillery altogether until the later patch that reverted it. It may improve your aim, but in my case it threw me off entirely. I mean if you can deploy with Q I likely just won't press the Q button as suggested and stay mobile.

Regarding bringing the pivot back, I am against it. I was against it when it was introduced and was glad when it got reverted. Voting against deployed artillery units. Aiming can be a nuisance sometimes, especially in the most crucial moments, but it's something I've come to terms with. I can get behind this however if deploying is implemented. Just do not return the pivot is all I ask.

Yes.

Joysticks, mouse, pfft. This is the future of playing APB.

Sounds neat! Looking forward to hearing more of this. Out of the three, I choose fanatical Order of the Inquisitors.

Looks like it is! Somewhat inaccurate, but it's there!

[blurb]Good welcome, citizens! Battle Grid Response has received reports of progress on Tiberian Sun: Reborn 2.0.

Battle Grid Response has received reports of progress on Tiberian Sun: Reborn 2.0. Intel indicates a look at Limpet Drones, the Mutant Hijacker's new tool, and the prospect for the GDI Riot Trooper. Limpet Drones First appearing in Firestorm, the Limpet Drone is a reconnaissance unit utilised by both GDI and Nod. Initially designed to uncover stealthed Nod bases, the Limpet Drone relays tactical information from the battlefield from its sensor and camera equipment. Even before being brought on as full staff, Ice was working with TSR Lead Producer Wallywood on the Limpet Drones. Mutant Hijacker Wrench Nod Mutant Hijackers are notorious for effortlessly breaking into any GDI vehicle and making it their own amidst the confusion of the battlefield. Being caught in the crossfire however usually leaves their prizes with some scratches and damage. For this reason, Mutant Hijackers have procured wrenches that will allow field repairs on their newfound rides. Numerous hijackings and equally numerous repairs have left their wrenches as worn out as their rusty crowbars, yet it gets the job done. Riot Trooper Shield The GDI Riot Trooper as we have noticed appears to have trouble in the open battlefield. While the Riot Trooper naturally excels in close-quarters combat, his survivability is greatly reduced when left out in the open. To alleviate this, there are plans to provide the Riot Trooper with an appropriate Riot Shield. This will greatly increase his survivability in the field. Ice is currently working on the Riot Shield, as well as working on a Nod Repair Station. More on the latter in another update. Shield preview by Ice. Early WIP. It should be noted that the Imperial Age guys have already gotten this down for their infantry. Check out Imperial Age if you haven't already and explore the amazing things @dblaney1 and @Kaskins have done with their project! That is it for this update! In the next update expect news of a certain fan mapper among other things. Peace through power citizens! One Vision. One Purpose. <<<End Transmission>>>

Expect a TSR update sometime midweek. AR update going out today.
