The thing I loved about "back then" was that it was just a bunch of pals in a computer lab or a LAN party. None of us were experts who optimized the fun out of the game. None of us were so good that weird maps would matter. And you got to enjoy the pleasure of doing things in game that were far from optimal plays, but were just so darn fun.

the slow decent into Madness actually is kinda funny

1:37 The reason is probably that games like Red Alert 1 were not made with multiplayer in mind. Online games weren’t much of a thing back then. The main goal were the singleplayer campaigns.

Yes, a second video for us to watch, so shortly after the other one. Thanks SYBERT!!

actually in the 2nd game Dynamic might be scouting for the Cruiser rush. I used to do double Cruiser rush on this map, against Soviet it's quite the show, since they don't do Submarines usually.

Well great games but really strange strategies used, kinda liked that, usually it's just tanks and rifleman, nice to see something else

I very much doubt this was the Dynamic who finished the last few season ranked #1 on the leaderboard playing these matches. DeathMetal is currently ranked 671st and they beat this player. ABEgrone is currently ranked outside the top 1000, it would be odd for Dynamic to be matched against someone ranked that low. It's just someone random on the leaderboard who copied the name of one of Dynamic's account. Based on the strategies and build orders and stuff, this isn't high level Red Alert Remastered gameplay, although the flame tower rush is a strategy that a lot of high level players use on that map (Canyon) when they are Soviets playing against Allies. Interesting matches though.

Wow! Releasing videos in quick succession! Thanks, Sybert! =)

that combination of bad luck, ineptitude, bad AI pathing, and probably tabbing to a different spot on the map at the worst time has got to be one of the funniest things i've seen in RA. and that's coming from a dude that's seen RC1985's shenanigans.

Last battle very good

1:18 The nice thing with asymmetrical maps is they allow players with different skill levels to play on the same map.

incredibleeee the last match was crazy!!!!

That last game was odd but very funny

17:10 never did versus expect for friends but even would have found that. Exploring the map with 2 soldiers is the lowest of low moves

Hopefully there will be a console port I have been playing C&C on Playstation's for over 20 year's it would be great to see these games back on console.

Its actually raining right now lol

doubt we´ll see any change to meta anyway as this game got support for what ? ... 2 months? 3? so it´ll be pretty much tankrush to until there is a propper RA remake or Sybert decides to do a OpenRA cast if he wants to ...

Bottom right got LESS RESOURCES on his side of the RIVER... so its a early vs late game thing

wow conpared to Kanes wrath these gameplays look so strange. really weird games

Was truly frustrating to watch yellow in that first game. Managed to survive the initial light tank rush but messed up build order completely. with all those ore fields he should have had money coming out of his ears. i'd have built a refinery on each field n a couple more ore trucks then gone for gems. he'd have been laughing. especially with a depot. no teslas either. just a weird play. there ws no real reason for him to move his mcv with his lac of base crawling

Definitely weird games. I'm pretty sure the meta wouldn't have changed since the game is infinity years old, so I'd assume just very casual playing. It's weird to see the juxtaposition of knowing the maps (e.g. MCV placement in game 1, base creep strat in game 3) but not really trying (poor ref placement, goofy build with deliberately low eco, lazy tank micro). I did like that last game though.

hope more tib down cowere way more strategy there and maps to know and build order etc

15:30 *ACTUALLY NO* ... thew 'modern' balancing prevents you from pushing times below a certain limit. I tried. All it does is give you a backup and put all in one spot ... well... not that great ps unless they play old balancing, where you could crush times ez... which i doubt from what i see Oo 21:10 *nope new balancing* ... tesla coils rapid fire and then briefly load longer (meant to deal with infantry better)

That rtx on

I am convinced the one downvote I see is Sybert lamenting the state of the C&C meta.

Is there no aggressive mode for units in the remaster?

Holyshit must’ve lost all skill, from unbeatable rank 1 to rank 800 in such a short amount of time

Is the same dynamic from the past kane s wrath?

this is not dynamic

Insert here strong doge/lame doge meme for symmetry gamers.

brrrrrr

how can i spectate like this?

Not dynamic

1:40 symetric maps are boring AF. It removes all map knowledge required. its also boring to look at

Are they supposed to be pro-gamers or just sort of random players? They don't seem like pro gamers. That might explain the "weird" play

Why no one is building navi nor air forces? Are they so bad?

Noobs 😆

Those guys r so bad lol

Seriously, better do OpenRA casts
