" The Gatling turrets are the only defensive structure of Yuri. It can target both, air and ground objectives. Lucky for us it can only attack one target at time."
Ah yes, the installation screen memories. I was so excited, seeing the unit blueprints, looking fucking badass under the music, getting excited to see what the units could do. Best installation screen ever.
It also helps that all of us were running potato-quality PC back in the day, so installing takes a long time and we could really appreciate the soundtrack and the unit blueprint graphics.
Kirov reporting! *spamming anti-air buttons* Training Training Training Building Unit ready Unit ready Our base is under attack Unit lost Low power Unit lost Training Unit lost Warning, nuclear missile launched! *shout profanities* Battle control terminated.
"We need to prepare for the worst commander.....War with the soviets. The following are technical specs on current battlefield weapon systems. Observe carefully commander. You may have to command these units in combat." Honestly was there ever a cooler installation? I'd keep deleting and reinstalling the game just to hear it :D
Only Westwood could ever come up with something ingenious such as including an entire theatrical synopsis in the installer. Also... "This man, known only as Yuri, may be responsible for shutting down our entire covert intelligence network within the Soviet Union!"
I have never felt as hyped at a game as this title. Playing this with a mate was so addictive. Your range of tactics were just out of this world. To this day... you can't find a game this perfectly balanced. What a great time to be born into!
No idea about it being balanced and honestly I have always felt cnc games were too keen on the rush meta... didn't stop me from spending way too much time playing this baby.
This track made an especially awesome impression when you launched an attack involving Kirov airship or Apocalypse tank - or both ... Love RA2 - one of the best games in its category ever!
Hey dude.. May I have some help? I still have my RA2 discs.. but I'm already tired of playing it by inserting the CD.. how can I fully install everything on my computer?
Witold Mickiewicz I appreciate your suggestion.. but is there a way to "completely" install everything in the directory of the game? Wherein.. it'll be no longer required for me to insert a virtual or physical CD.. so that I can play right away without switching virtual / physical CDs..
SPi Never mind dude.. I think I'm just "too demanding".. I just wanted to know if it is possible to play campaigns with their complete cinematics "without" inserting the CD.. therefore, "fully" installing the entire game on my PC.. But after countless hours of searching it on the Internet.. no one seems to find a way to do it.. :)) Anyways, thank you for replying! :D

The transition at 2:11 will never not be badass. It goes from ominous and hopeless to "fuck it we got Albert Einstein let's do this shit"
That buildup is so sinister I love it
Who here believed the "Encryption Key required, You have 30 seconds to comply"? xD Memories.
Yup! Typed that key in as fast as I could lol

I was like 7 I think, so yeah totally fell for it xD

No idea about it being balanced and honestly I have always felt cnc games were too keen on the rush meta... didn't stop me from spending way too much time playing this baby.
Starcraft 1 is best balanced rts with 3 races. Also, Warcraft 3 is also very balanced to be honest.
This track made an especially awesome impression when you launched an attack involving Kirov airship or Apocalypse tank - or both ... Love RA2 - one of the best games in its category ever!
The bass drums from 1:12 -1:22 are so epic.
Yes they are. Kinda sound like distant cannon fire.

Still playing to this day, try play Mental Omega as well
Hope they remaster it to take care of the aspect ratio and compatibility issues

I have a fond memory of my parents being like wtf did you do when they heard the audio during the installation 😂😂

The modern gaming industry cannot even fantasize the greatness of that era. we are speaking about an ENORMOUS, TITANIC gap between then and now.

I still have my RA2 discs.. but I'm already tired of playing it by inserting the CD.. how can I fully install everything on my computer?
Philippe Serrano try DAEMON Tools, or similar program.
Witold Mickiewicz
I appreciate your suggestion.. but is there a way to "completely" install everything in the directory of the game?
Wherein.. it'll be no longer required for me to insert a virtual or physical CD.. so that I can play right away without switching virtual / physical CDs..
I have the discs in .nrg files so loading em with deamon tools isnt much work.

Never mind dude.. I think I'm just "too demanding"..

This song makes even the quieter moments in the game seem desperate and tense. Waiting for a counter attack or an ambush
In Deep is So Awesome and still Sounds Badass!!! Goosebumps
This was my favorite installation experience EVER.
yuri kicked so much allied asses back then!! i miss this time
And this was just for the installer.
2019 and still amazing
all time still amazing !
Вторая часть это легенда, даже третья ее не смогла переплюнуть.
Третья как раз всё и испортила. RA1 и RA2 вот это были классные части.

@@sv122 thank you sir
Me long time ago playing RA2: this music is boring..
