Plokite_Wolf Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 Comrades! 20 years ago, on 31 October 1996, Command & Conquer: Red Alert was released! What are your favourite memories from playing this game? I've also made a small commemorative post on GameReplays to help the nostalgia and memories flash 3 Quote
NodGuy Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 Obliterating Allied dogs with nuclear fire was always fun. Seeing Kane in the cutscenes was enjoyable too. 0 Quote
MPRA2 Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 20 years of Red Alert? shit dude...... Time to spend 3 weeks trying to beat the Soviet+Allied Campaign on RA1........ >_> I've only beaten the GDI and NOD campaign in FS/C&C3, beat the KW Campaign, and the RA3 Campaigns.... nothing else..... 0 Quote
MechanicalThighs Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 My favorite RA memories were actually the skirmishes, though the campaign was a ton of fun. I just remember the AI being insane, throwing massive assault forces at you to wear you down. I rarely won, but that made the few victories I did have even more special. 1 Quote
Plokite_Wolf Posted October 31, 2016 Author Report Posted October 31, 2016 Welp, got a bit carried away. After researching and talking to Tore from CnC-Comm, turns out that Wikipedia is wrong. The game went gold on 17 November and hit the shelves later that month. https://web.archive.org/web/19971009175538/http://www.westwood.com/games/redalert/news.html Still, it's always a good time to celebrate RA1. 0 Quote
Einstein Posted November 1, 2016 Report Posted November 1, 2016 Its ok though, I thought it was today too 0 Quote
FRAYDO Posted November 2, 2016 Report Posted November 2, 2016 It's always a good time to celebrate RA1! If anyone's down for some CnCNet play, let's play some sometime. 1 Quote
delta Posted November 2, 2016 Report Posted November 2, 2016 I never see anyone from W3DHub/BHP on CnCNet. Or at least, no one who goes by the same name they do here... 0 Quote
Mojoman Posted November 2, 2016 Report Posted November 2, 2016 Man that Red Alert trailer! Some live action cutscenes I haven't seen before 0 Quote

Plokite_Wolf Posted November 4, 2016 Author Report Posted November 4, 2016 Man that Red Alert trailer! Some live action cutscenes I haven't seen beforeYeah. This trailer was originally on Westwood's FTP (and still is, depending on the day when it doesn't redirect to EA's old main FTP). Time to update Wikipedia then! Already did, actually. 0 Quote
Raap Posted November 7, 2016 Report Posted November 7, 2016 In my mind I somehow read this as 20 years of APB. Sometimes it feels that long... 2 Quote
