I agree that the Zone Troopers are somewhat lacking when up against vehicles. Not only that they are hopeless against the NOD's Shadow team (I think these guys are cooler with their glider ability).

Then again, this game is all about having the right balance of units in an attack or defence force and the missile troopers are extremely deadly to tanks and air units.

I wish they have chrono troupers like RA2 again they were really good against tanks and where are the easter eggs like in RA when you capture enemy buildings u get some hidden units.

Well said.

I use to like 1 unit rulez all philosophy in RTS games, but after playing so many RTS, now i prefer strategy to rock-paper-scissors .

Take AoE for example, they have the rock-paper-scissors thing, but yet if you mass zerg 1 unit enough, you'd still overwhelm them.

in SupCom's case, it's Air vs Land vs Arty vs underwater. Depending on what units. i thought this one was alot more easier to catch then arrow vs spear vs sword.

CnC however, 1 unit rulez all still stands. Kinda.. I'm not sure if mammoth tanks have Anti-Air, but because of the unit limitations and the size of the map, limited amount of mammoth tanks can crush a base before the AirtoGround units can kill the tanks

Just wish that CnC is bigger though

Also, the Silo's needed thingy really surprised me. I know it's like part of CnC all these years, even goes bakc all the way to Dune 2. But after playing RTS like WC3, StarCraft, SupCom, AoE, i've never really remember tehm all having needing to build buildings to increase your resource cap.

(SupCom's Mass storage and Energy Storage are diff story)

I thought u have to build builders to increase resource caps like in Dune u need spice harvesters, WC3 more workers,SC also same,AoE also only Sup com u have to build buildings.

In previous versions of C&C, the Mammoth was the be-all, end all tank for every situation. It had the largest tank cannon, its missiles raped aircraft and even infantry. In C&C 3, however its overall effectiveness against infantry, has been somewhat reduced.

As for the silo's needed thing, you have to remember that unlike "regular" (Since Starcraft is now the defacto standard for an RTS), you don't spend all your money instantly when building a unit and it slowly drains away your resources. So, if your gather rate was faster than your spend rate, you need silos to prevent wastage. In a strategic point of view, well, you could say that if u have lots of silos with excess cash, you could recover easier if your economy gets attacked.

True, in every C&C game, rocket soldiers are considered the only infantry worth building, and that stays true in this game... But, that's about it.

So.... I take it NOONE has beaten the brutal enemy? or they would have posted a strategy

you can re-assign it yourselves..
or try to play and use the hotkeys more till you familiar with it
^^

MOAR screnshots laa

Hee, most of C&C forums are discussing about the modding of C&C3. Thinking of playing around with the files after getting the full version.

What forums? where? Can you give me a link?

i'm seriously suprised u say this game has high requirement.....
i can even play it on my 4 years old pc, and this would be new game for this year somemore....
i think it's more likely u need an upgrade if u want to continue gaming

Here you go. Go download the demo, it's more fun than just watching the pictures and staring at all of our pretty pictures. Its just 1.2gb, 2-3 hours download.
