Can anyone help me please , i bought official Red Alert Bundles from EA Origin , after i install it , it is not in playable state ; worst graphic and extreme lags. My laptop has almost latest spec. My question is where can i download and play proper Red Alert game.at Thanks
if you keep the length and give us an overall strategy "debrief" --- and then just take ot some awesome spotlights where some very hard stuff worked out the right/wrong way
Some people like a full match with commentary, others like highlights. It's like football, some people like watching it on TV (highlights), others like going to the event.
Red Alert Retaliation was what got me into the series. I remember being disappointed I could not find a copy for my PS1. My friend told me Retaliation was the second one, so I bought Red Alert 2 thinking it was the same for PC.
OMG PS1 C&C is so fucked up :S TD especially.. My brother completed both campaigns on hard difficulty.. It's hard AF, ecerybody knows that TD is hardest C&C, add controller to that.. damn...
i prefer the commentary, as it's the main reason i enjoy your videos, decent gameplay of ra2 is everywhere, but it's the insight on the decisions and all that jazz that make your videos better than the rest.
That was totally awesome! I like the commentary on the competitive matches but can get down with no-commentary on complete CHAOS like this haha. The non-stop Dreadnought missile fire and Apoc tank battle was intense! GG
This game was amazing back in the day... playing it now I find handycappin myself is the only was to create a challenge vs bots... even with 7 of them on brutal vs me it's too easy. here is a summary of how to win every time... destroy bridge, build air defence, mass click prism or apocalypse tank, rebuild bridge, steamroll enemy with your tank of choice... no joke you never loose.
I***** yeah man its harder but the only real threat is spies and engineers and a few dogs solve that problem. They need a hd remake with super smart ai...
So long since i saw this game. Memories from childhood comes back, and here i were thinking all those memories were lost due to heavy drinking and other less dangerous drugs.
surprised that people are still playing this game. it's nice to know that people are still playing these types of game and not letting them die I used to play that game and I got a new laptop so I couldn't play it anymore so seeing this game again gives me so many nostalgia feels
haha I used to love playing this game as a kid. I remember going into I believe it was electronic boutique (now GameStop) after saving up for 2 months of doing chores to buy this game. I couldnt really play online much as I had dialup so I was relegated to playing the campaign over and over again. Im glad there are still people that play it.
btw during that big apoc battle, im curious why you didnt focus down some of his vet units. I mean im sure when you are surrounded by tons of cash flow and alot of action, its really hard to notice little things like that but he had 1 vet unit that killed a load of yours.
Definitely like the talking. It's because you narrate what happened after the match, rather than talking during the live match. We see the bigger picture, instead of the commentary being reactionary.
Just found your channel as soon as I started replaying RA2 again (about 2 weeks ago). I agree with the other comments, you telling us your thought process and why you do stuff is extremely helpful! Thanks for keeping us updated!
Dear Bryan! If you read this, please let me know how can I have your help, because I really need it. In another video, you suggested to buy from Origin. I did that today, but the resolution is really bad, and I have no idea how to change it to HD or something. Please contact me as fast as you can! Keep up the good work! :)
Original Command and Conqueror! It was blast to play back in the day and even now. Great memories of calling in sick since PlayStation had no save capacity and I had survived a level my roommate and I had tried numerous times to beat, no way I am turning it off nor was I wanting to leave it on all day on pause, soo ..cough cough…
OMG... I've never seen such a grandeur battle. So many Dreadnoughts raining missiles on Flack Tracks and a sea of Apocalypse tanks rampaging another sea of Apocalypse tanks.
RA2 is my favorite fun RTS, was so pissed off with what EA did with RA3. I'm surprised the pro scene was so slow in mirror matches, if I remember it wasn't uncommon to have 20 factories churning out Rhino tanks at the 5 min mark. Almost to the point of not bothering scouting.
I’ve played a lot of Halo Wars 2 and I’ve played a lot of RA2. Easily 500+ hours of each. My biggest complaint between the two is when units become ‘elite’ in HW2, you don’t feel like they’re noticeably stronger. 30% gains to health and damage. An elite sub, dreadnaught, rhino, prism, infantry, you can feel the ULTIMATE POWER!!!!!
Why is he throwing in dogs along his apocalypse tanks? Is that to get rid of these spider like terror drones? How to get rid efficiently of the latter actually?
Okey. But are u sure one shot of an apocalypse tank damages your unit of interest more (in financial terms: if 1/3 of your tank's health bar is destroyed, count 1/3 of its price) than the price of the dog? U also have an opportunity cost here, I think: the dogs can't shoot. So all the decoy money is not destroying apocalypse tanks, so lowers the destroy rate of your army=>apocalypes can fire more shots in total before taken down. I think the calculation could get more complex as first thought.
The spider drones can cause havoc on your expensive units if they get through. When they manage to take over a unit it becomes very difficult to stop them jumping from one unit to the other. Your only option at that point is to separate the infected units quickly and force fire to kill your infected units.
Quick question mate, how do you get it to play so smoothly? WHat version of the game are you using, Im using an I7 with a great graphics card but its just so bloody slow when theres lots of action going on
I dont play against people in this game so if i ever wanted to try, hearing ideas from someone like you who has played against people would be really helpful. either way, these videos are awesome and really makes me want to play this game again.
You should make your videos the way you want to, I don't mind you talking at all, this channel should just as much be for watching you as for watching red alert 2 lol
With large forces like that you have to be careful telling them all to move or attack the same target or area. The ones up front will get just in range and stop to fire while the others behind will dance in circles trying to find a way around and won't be firing. Better to make groups and have each group attack from a slightly different area.
alot of times i see you use what looks like "attack move" with your cursor changing from full green to partially green/red. But it's not the one with the shield that come with ctrl+alt. What is that? is it different? and how is it done?
KillTyrant - Its true, this was the benefit of multiple buildings before they got their seperate queues... I didnt know the max was 8 (been MANY years) but the theory is very much true.
In the first RA, you would also increase the speed of nuclear missiles with more silos too. Not that you would usually play a game long enough to get to that point, but it was pretty funny when you had 8 silos. I think you got diminishing returns on build time reduction though
Amazing! I have this on Origin but thing is it does not do full screen like that an recently for no reason my base blows up 30 seconds in to a skirmish, and campaign I die instantly for no reason... can you help?
dude that was FUN TO WATCH! quick question: I'm playing Red Alert 2 & Yuri off of a non-steam game via steam launching Origin (yuck) , which messes up my chance to go any higher than 1024 x860 , (menu buttons become unclickable even typing hires) , is the cncnet executible that allows higher res allow me to play the campaign as well?

This game will never die, 15 years old and still going strong. Can never beat the classics.
21yr update
Just discovered on CnC , $12 to d/l ultimate collection , all C & c up to RedAlert 3. Patches, updated to Win 10! The JOY of Yuri Rev once again!
That was gnarly. I prefer when you talk, especially about your strategy.
I think having two versions would keep everyone happy.
One with full showing and commentary,
the other being highlights of the match.
if you keep the length and give us an overall strategy "debrief" --- and then just take ot some awesome spotlights where some very hard stuff worked out the right/wrong way
Some people like a full match with commentary, others like highlights. It's like football, some people like watching it on TV (highlights), others like going to the event.
Sir where can I download the red alert 2? I want to play it again. Its a classic. I cant find it anywhere. Please answer thanks.
3.99 GBP
This is exactly how I remember playing RA2 with my friends. Shit tons of gems and oil and just build huge ass armies to clash against each other. xD
This is how I failed my school
9:50 you taught a good lesson. No matter how good your tank is, always bring foggers. And they are awesome!!! just dont get phoned by animal aid. lol
This reminds me of horrifying memories on PS1 playing C&C with a controller
Red Alert Retaliation was what got me into the series. I remember being disappointed I could not find a copy for my PS1. My friend told me Retaliation was the second one, so I bought Red Alert 2 thinking it was the same for PC.
Imagine the horror of trying to play this on a mobile device. Glad it was never ported.
C&C 3 and RA3 on consoles wasn't so bad. Downside were the population cap and the dead online community lol
OMG PS1 C&C is so fucked up :S TD especially.. My brother completed both campaigns on hard difficulty.. It's hard AF, ecerybody knows that TD is hardest C&C, add controller to that.. damn...
It was pretty harsh doing it with mere megs of ram in Windows 95, too!
i prefer the commentary, as it's the main reason i enjoy your videos, decent gameplay of ra2 is everywhere, but it's the insight on the decisions and all that jazz that make your videos better than the rest.
That was totally awesome! I like the commentary on the competitive matches but can get down with no-commentary on complete CHAOS like this haha. The non-stop Dreadnought missile fire and Apoc tank battle was intense! GG
This game is ridiculously good! Holy shit I love this game!
PS: Ty Peter Parker !
OOPS :)
Really well fucking played ! GG and keep the videos , just love then
This game was amazing back in the day... playing it now I find handycappin myself is the only was to create a challenge vs bots... even with 7 of them on brutal vs me it's too easy. here is a summary of how to win every time... destroy bridge, build air defence, mass click prism or apocalypse tank, rebuild bridge, steamroll enemy with your tank of choice... no joke you never loose.
I***** yeah man its harder but the only real threat is spies and engineers and a few dogs solve that problem. They need a hd remake with super smart ai...
online vs players is where the real fun is DOA NEXUS
I mean the real problem for me is either KIROVS which is a threat or just the superweapons
Don’t destroy the beige
So long since i saw this game. Memories from childhood comes back, and here i were thinking all those memories were lost due to heavy drinking and other less dangerous drugs.
hahah true story
I miss this game, guys still play it eh?
Theres actually around 200 people online at a single time playing ra2/yuri revenge. Still alive
itsWagZ98 awesome, thanks man
It was free on Origin not too long ago.
petnzme01 is Red Alert 2 on Steam too? I know there's one at Origin.
@petnzme01 eh Red alert 3 sucks in my opinion
surprised that people are still playing this game.
it's nice to know that people are still playing these types of game and not letting them die
I used to play that game and I got a new laptop so I couldn't play it anymore
so seeing this game again gives me so many nostalgia feels
Fantastic game. I played exclusively Soviets.
Brought back memories.
Boris.
I reckon you should keep some of the voice over, particularly if you cut to the good stuff!
So satisfying. My first game of all time since I was a kid. This would be my best game in my life.
haha I used to love playing this game as a kid. I remember going into I believe it was electronic boutique (now GameStop) after saving up for 2 months of doing chores to buy this game. I couldnt really play online much as I had dialup so I was relegated to playing the campaign over and over again. Im glad there are still people that play it.

Same! I got destroyed when I finally did go online lol, but I mostly just enjoyed collecting custom maps
Definitely like the talking. It's because you narrate what happened after the match, rather than talking during the live match. We see the bigger picture, instead of the commentary being reactionary.
please do more talk over, I'm curious what you're thinking in these situations
Ive done lan parties with this game and we had armies so big the game lagged and you couldbt fit a tank anywhere
Submarine Captain:Marine squad dive!
Battleship:I can't dive captain
Headquarters: Missiles incoming dive!
Battleship:I said I can't dive!
(Missile Approaching)
Battleship:*Girl Scream*Aaaaaaahhhhhhhh!
(Explosion)
Headquarters: Unit lost
Player:.....(Creates another battleship)
Nice Battle. I love massive battles, usually one-on-one, conventional weapons only (tanks and troops, no Yuri, no air-force, no navy).
this brings back so much memories. I used to play this game hours and hours with some of my best friends.
Just found your channel as soon as I started replaying RA2 again (about 2 weeks ago). I agree with the other comments, you telling us your thought process and why you do stuff is extremely helpful! Thanks for keeping us updated!
How did you install this?
In My case, I had installed in Win7
it worked but some Resolution failed.
Should I get XP maybe?
I miss this game, spending hours of tactics and strategy
10:05-10:55 Did you borrow that tactic from Hannibal? I lol'd!
I like how you spam the doge army to tank like 1/4 of the enemy's apocalypse fire power (10:00). Nice strat.
one of the best games ive ever played in my life!
dang the dog distraction is genius
How did you add the RA2 music to the Yuri's Revenge Client?
all this years playing red alert 2 and I still don't know how to attack bridges
Bryan Vahey thank you so much. but does it work on the regular red alert 2 or only in Yuri's revenge?
fun alternate options include seal/tanya c4 or crazy ivan bombs for instant destruction use on the repair huts :)
Classic Style Tanya
Just press "A" onto the bridge.
You remind me why I loved these games!
Your voice I like, Keep it.
Dear Bryan! If you read this, please let me know how can I have your help, because I really need it. In another video, you suggested to buy from Origin. I did that today, but the resolution is really bad, and I have no idea how to change it to HD or something. Please contact me as fast as you can! Keep up the good work! :)
Thanks a lot! :)
Máté Szél You edit the ra2.ini file in the folder the game is installed. Under [Video] you set the resolution to whatever. :D
That apocalypse tank free for all... Crazy video.Nicely done.
The discipline of those Submarine commanders is awe inspiring. I've never seen 40 Submarines that close to each other
3:40 nice sound east hit west tactic lol
Just curious how do you get the multiple barracks, War Factories and shipyards to produce units? The standard game only lets you use one at a time.
Each extra building speeds up production by a notable amount
this was MY GAME back in the 2000's
Original Command and Conqueror! It was blast to play back in the day and even now. Great memories of calling in sick since PlayStation had no save capacity and I had survived a level my roommate and I had tried numerous times to beat, no way I am turning it off nor was I wanting to leave it on all day on pause, soo ..cough cough…
OMG... I've never seen such a grandeur battle. So many Dreadnoughts raining missiles on Flack Tracks and a sea of Apocalypse tanks rampaging another sea of Apocalypse tanks.
I have absolutely no idea why was this recommended to me, but it was fun. The nostalgia was real with this one.
6:09 It is day of judgement ,😁
Thanks for such an entertain video :)
RA2 is my favorite fun RTS, was so pissed off with what EA did with RA3.
I'm surprised the pro scene was so slow in mirror matches, if I remember it wasn't uncommon to have 20 factories churning out Rhino tanks at the 5 min mark. Almost to the point of not bothering scouting.
1:53 Those desolators(or what was their name?) destroys those missiles using that radiation skill?
Do you have any more of these mega wealth vids Dr B?
*In the voice of Good Ol' JR* "It's a SLOBBERKNOCKER!! Oh my GOD what a series of BLOWS from these two TITANS of the battlefield!!"
That is awesome!!
I’ve played a lot of Halo Wars 2 and I’ve played a lot of RA2. Easily 500+ hours of each. My biggest complaint between the two is when units become ‘elite’ in HW2, you don’t feel like they’re noticeably stronger. 30% gains to health and damage. An elite sub, dreadnaught, rhino, prism, infantry, you can feel the ULTIMATE POWER!!!!!
yet again this game is still alive
I miss this game so much.. just waiting until i can afford to get a new PC :D
I don't have one :( not worth dual booting my MacBook pro
lol. Who plays the original disc version of RA2 anymore?
Download OpenRA and install it. That's what everyone plays nowadays.
If you're on Windows 10, it's hard to configure the game because it was made 18 Years ago.
Ellis Arnold Macasieb they have the complete series version that was released more recently is that playable on windows 10?
Decent video chap! Just randomly came across this and so happy I did. I've liked and subbed!
what song is playing at 3:55 i swear to god i recognize it
How do you still play the game on these newer OS without having it crash often?
BOT Opie i can even play it on android
Can you play on windows 10?
Setting compatibilities on .exe aren't hard. WIndows 10 are able to handle games made from 1992.
At least my Win10x64 does.
Nice video!!! I love your channel! ♥
Gg wp man, and I think a little commentary is good every now and then 😄
Btw do u play it on windows 10? I'm trying to but it keeps crashing 😭
oh man brings back good memories!!!!!
Even the USA army would fall to this army
Good planner ✌️, the way how you mange your Tanks Movement was perfect 👍
Why is he throwing in dogs along his apocalypse tanks? Is that to get rid of these spider like terror drones? How to get rid efficiently of the latter actually?
Okey. But are u sure one shot of an apocalypse tank damages your unit of interest more (in financial terms: if 1/3 of your tank's health bar is destroyed, count 1/3 of its price) than the price of the dog?

PETA would be so angry if they saw this XD
The spider drones can cause havoc on your expensive units if they get through. When they manage to take over a unit it becomes very difficult to stop them jumping from one unit to the other. Your only option at that point is to separate the infected units quickly and force fire to kill your infected units.
man i miss this game. Are you playing on a lan? Haven't been able to play multiplayer on that game since i was a kid. Good member berries
How good quality resolution oo. How? Full HD? From origin?
This was so satisfying to watch!
That incredible slowdown on the last clip!
Quick question mate, how do you get it to play so smoothly? WHat version of the game are you using, Im using an I7 with a great graphics card but its just so bloody slow when theres lots of action going on
Why you not use kirov?
Commentary is better then just watching and wondering what you're thinking.
Even watching this video, my PC fans started ramping up, haha. Great one.
Where are u playing this?? GameRanger???
Its like watching my childhood....thank u bro
I dont play against people in this game so if i ever wanted to try, hearing ideas from someone like you who has played against people would be really helpful. either way, these videos are awesome and really makes me want to play this game again.
the way-points option is a target list?
What were the siege chops for?
I'd prefer to hear you explain the choices you make and why during the match :D
why it is so smooth? My game just use one core of the cpu and it's very laggy.
you said it, the cpu !
На 9:29 красный отправил собак вперёд. Он сделал довольно хорошо таким образом. Обеспечил победу.
All those good boys doing their bit for the motherland.
Loved the dogs on tanks strat. 10/10
I like it with voice over. Nice video
You should make your videos the way you want to, I don't mind you talking at all, this channel should just as much be for watching you as for watching red alert 2 lol
So is it a silent spring yet or what?
to someone who witnesses that fight he'd only see the squids LOL
Hi how can you play with other players in multiplayer since Gamespy is closed down ? Is there another way to play multiplayer online ?
With large forces like that you have to be careful telling them all to move or attack the same target or area. The ones up front will get just in range and stop to fire while the others behind will dance in circles trying to find a way around and won't be firing. Better to make groups and have each group attack from a slightly different area.
What's the hot key to attack any enemy along the path? I saw u did many times
whats the strategy for the dogs to go with apocalypse?
wow... its a super game.. i love it ... its so great... big support from me.. also i love this game
alot of times i see you use what looks like "attack move" with your cursor changing from full green to partially green/red.
But it's not the one with the shield that come with ctrl+alt.
What is that? is it different? and how is it done?
This just got recommended!
Hey man! is it possible to play on win8 without change anything?
Thoses were the days :D miss playing Red Alert 2
THAT was AWESOME!
What the version this game?
Having more shipyards increased build speed of ships?
Alright good to know! I played it so much int he past and somehow never knew this! XD i feel stupid.
Also contstruction yards increase all structure/defensive build speeds
okay I gotta ask. Are you guys trolling? I legit never knew this if you arent.
KillTyrant - Its true, this was the benefit of multiple buildings before they got their seperate queues... I didnt know the max was 8 (been MANY years) but the theory is very much true.
In the first RA, you would also increase the speed of nuclear missiles with more silos too. Not that you would usually play a game long enough to get to that point, but it was pretty funny when you had 8 silos. I think you got diminishing returns on build time reduction though
Amazing! I have this on Origin but thing is it does not do full screen like that an recently for no reason my base blows up 30 seconds in to a skirmish, and campaign I die instantly for no reason... can you help?
Why dont you use hotkeys for waypoints and deploying buildings?
Back in the day, machines will grind to a halt with the sheer amount of units :P
dude that was FUN TO WATCH! quick question: I'm playing Red Alert 2 & Yuri off of a non-steam game via steam launching Origin (yuck) , which messes up my chance to go any higher than 1024 x860 , (menu buttons become unclickable even typing hires) , is the cncnet executible that allows higher res allow me to play the campaign as well?
also what Windows version do you run?
Do you have to get a physical disk, download it, or can you download it for free?
