Still some stuff in this video look like bugs/glitches. Like the helicopters on the water (programmed to not sink), teleporting Kirov (only when you sell your warfactory at the right time) and teleporting harriers (they spawn on the ground)
What's scariest than a Kirov? Teleporting Kirov, immediately in your base :P Those giant squid are truly Yuri's creation, they're able to read you before it happened xD
Ah the Chrono tech. This very RA2, Allied campaign, the last mission. I couldn't hold on the base for long before it was continuously decimated by the Soviets. But, the game is not ended even if your whole base was destroyed, as long as you had one unit left, it didn't matter which. So theoretically you could keep going forever. A speed run idea was devised and i managed to build about 50 Chrono Legionnaires that i send on a safe corner while trying to fend off the attacks on the main base. As soon as the base was destroyed, i had my Chrono Legionnaires sneak attack various Soviet structure basically decimating them piece by piece, while they earned their ranks. And thus i managed to win that mission. It was a long Swedish winter at that time.
I usually got to the second iron curtain deployment before I went nomad with a few tanks and an IFV. The goal was to get at least one IFV fully promoted before leaving and hopefully 1-2 grizzlys as well. I'd just sneak around the side and use the IFVs range to take out teslas.
0:50 this bug probably stems from the fact that "water" in TS and RA2 is just normal land but with some special characteristics (and thus anything naval is actually a vehicle restricted to "water"). When using the Ares DLL this doesn't happen and the JumpJets sink.
My favourite chronoshift of all time was one player chronoshifting one enemy yuri's masterminds right into another enemy's tanks. Absolute chaos ensued.
2:30 - *Soldier:* _General, why are we loading these hovercrafts with APCs filled with troops and packing them so tight together?_ *Player's General:* _You see, Boris, my favorite toy is matryoshka. This and the Chronosphere, indeed._ *Soldier:* _Oh, yeah. It's all coming together now..._
For me, the most funny chronosphere use was when Bryan Vahey was playing on an all-ore map against two Yuris. Both were stronger than him. One Yuri built some Masterminds and located them on a small spot, whereas the other had an army of Gattling and Lasher tanks. Bryan teleported the masterminds of one Yuri on top of Gats and Lashers of the other Yuri. It caused a total chaos.
That Kirov trick was crazy. I always liked the demo truck in the transport with crazy Ivan. I usually put an iron curtain on it and just ran it through the enemy base unloading trucks. It was cool just watching it blow up multiple times XD
1:34 ok, the fact that you can use chronosphere on chrono legionnaries is mindblowing to me. It's logical, but because they are infantry it never crossed my mind that it was possible.
Top ten uses for an Iron Curtain. 1) Invincible Tanks 2) Kill infantry 3) uhhh...hmmm 4) oh yeah! Save buildings 5) uhm.... 6) Yo Jack! Got any uses for the Iron Curtain?....well that's what I said! 7) Sell it for a few troops 8) Epic team strats with Allied Chronosphere? Well thats something for BOTH chronosphere and ic, thats lame 9) I feel like allied gets a lot more fun gadgets :( 10) Make something invincible. That's literally it.
8 seconds of invincibility is a long time in RA2. It can remove Terror Drones. Makes them immune from Chrono weapons(legionnaire and chronoshift) AND mind control. Though yeah, Chronosphere has better versitility.
If your Chronosphere about get freeze or delete by the CLegion after you select location 1, you can still select location 2 and use it again once the CLegion stop delete it (doesn't works in YR however)
You can use ctrl+F2, F3, ... and then F2, F3, ... to "bookmark" and then view that location on the map, like how you create teams and double press their number to center the screen on them. That should avoid some of those bloopers :)
Haha no more Quarantine from Covid 19! The full amphibious transport shift I've seen before. Imagine 36 tanks coming out from 9 transports but granted it is very expensive to pull it off, and not even sure whether it is that even viable in competitive play.
Hey, great vid. Love this game, but I can't get it to run on my current system. I own the original cd, the decade edition, and have bought it on EA. None are playable. Any help would be great.
Try to install DirectPlay - maybe that will help: th-cam.com/video/y1c5opN5uG0/w-d-xo.html Also make sure that you installed DirectX 9.0c and old Visual C++ Redistributables
Unsure if this was mentioned, but this happened to me on a CnCNet 4v4 Ore Near Far game. one of the opponents was Yuri, and they had a Genetic Mutator. my team had no money left, we would surely lose; but i had a Chronosphere, so i took that to victory by dumping the Slave Miners into the water on that map. Two things to note; you can use the Chronosphere to deny the Yuri some money by dumping the miners into the water; or Chronosphering the Brutes themselves. If you Chronosphere a tank in a Tank Bunker (For me it was a Gattling Tank), and put it on the water, for some reason it doesn't sink, and just.. floats there. for some reason.
@@tg.Sacred yeah, the game crashes frequently. I'm hoping they announce a remaster of RA2 and TS similar to what they've already done with the originals. Otherwise I might have to spend on the Origin digital collection.
I expected an MCV theft in there but I did learn that you can transport deployed helicopters and demo trucks. I thought that demo trucks would self destruct when you tried to chrono them.
hmm...do you really Need the CrazyIvan bombs on the DemoTrucks in order to destroy a ConYard in one go? either way, i think thats scarier than a NukeMissile...you dont have enough time to put the ForceShield up when you hear "Warning: Chronosphere Activated" ('instant nuke' breaks your base)
@@tg.Sacred lol well like i said, that makes it even 'worse' (from the Receiving point of view)...if Libya gets a hold of Chronotech (or if the Allies get a DemoTruck) might as well just give up at that point xD
I remember having an hard/normal AI having a bunch of War Miners at the Ore Refinery and I just Chronosphere'd them into the water, making them all sink! That was priceless. And I heard it's possible to Chrono Teleport Ships to a Swimming Pool! Who wouldn't want to have a Aircraft Carrier or Dreadnought in a Swimming Pool? xD
There are other variations of these tricks. 1. Drop the ships you picked up onto something. 2. Carry tnt'd explosive trucks in transports for a total overkill.

The fact of how old and creative the devs where, all the stuff here seems legit designed with purpose from such a long time ago, very creative!
Im still impressed with how insanely cool the Chrono Legionaire is. Starcraft 2 is fun and all, but units like this are true classics to RTS.
Ra2 will forever be a legendary game.
Still some stuff in this video look like bugs/glitches. Like the helicopters on the water (programmed to not sink), teleporting Kirov (only when you sell your warfactory at the right time) and teleporting harriers (they spawn on the ground)
What's scariest than a Kirov?
Teleporting Kirov, immediately in your base :P
Those giant squid are truly Yuri's creation, they're able to read you before it happened xD
The worst part: that was just a scout for the main force.
Chrono + IC kirov
I litterly had nightmares of Kirov's invading my hometown when I was younger. Now it just got scarier haha.
What's scariest than a Teleporting Kirov?
Teleporting Kirov with iron curtain effect
5:02 Finnaly! Squids can now attack air! *Happy elite Giant Squid noises*
Wow it's the real yuri prime
naw.... the squid was just lifted up with the heli
RA2 never dies...
There are many tricks that we didn't know
Because old is gold
never have been, brotha!
Amen brother
... only the players.

Bruh you can win with 1 cryo unit lol

Moral of the video: always keep your giant squids around in case of floating helicopter artillery.
Soviet Air time to unpack
Soviet Squid:STAY HERE COMRAD
NKWD Squid: NO RETREAT!
I thought teleporting Aircraft Carriers to swimming pools was hilarious, but all of these takes the cake.
yea lol
0:50 this bug probably stems from the fact that "water" in TS and RA2 is just normal land but with some special characteristics (and thus anything naval is actually a vehicle restricted to "water").
When using the Ares DLL this doesn't happen and the JumpJets sink.
going viral soon
just came across my recco sooo
Now we're fucked as everyone uses these tactics
the demo truck chrono tactic is one i always use xD
also that squid ending lol didnt expect that
My favourite chronoshift of all time was one player chronoshifting one enemy yuri's masterminds right into another enemy's tanks. Absolute chaos ensued.
That Kirov and Siege Chopper chronoshifting was absolutely brilliant!!!
Chronoshifting a kirov? Meh
Chronoshift then iron curtained Kirov? That's me. My friend ragequitting after I do this to him lmao.
Uhh... I just using my luck against him...
Damn. Thats pure evil. 🤣
WTF? This is so mean 😂
Don't mind me just taking notes
@@capriumnoir6426
....
Uhh....
I'm so early Kane is still plotting behind Stalin's back.
Anyway, nice video as always.
lol the squid at the end
And to think that was just a blooper.
Elite squid want to grab some aircraft. And this time it finally can do
Well damn look at that fearless mind controlled squid!
Good thing the game didn't crash by its awesomeness.
I know, right!
bloopers was the best part! those expressions and music! nice to see you back!
that kamikaze harriers though.never thought you can use the alt+move mechanic to crash them
Nice, someone noticed!
Wait a minute... kamikaze harriers?
I've seen people in ra3 multiplayer use aircraft like that to finish off something, but this is brilliant :D
so thats what the harriers were actually doing in the intro of Yuri's Revenge!!!
Learned a few new tricks, knew 7 or 8 already. But those bloopers? Pure Gold
I love the bloopers part so much.
Flying squid is never seen before for sure.
Love the presentation and humour!
Your editing gets better and better :)
As an RA2 fan i appreciate your effort and creativity. And blopers part is a fun too.
The most great video i saw about this game. Most of the crazy things happen when chronosphere is combined with sovient techniques
The squid part was hilarious lol.
Nice. At least I'm early for this video.
Edit: damn, the bloopers at the end.
2:30 -
*Soldier:* _General, why are we loading these hovercrafts with APCs filled with troops and packing them so tight together?_
*Player's General:* _You see, Boris, my favorite toy is matryoshka. This and the Chronosphere, indeed._
*Soldier:* _Oh, yeah. It's all coming together now..._
Damn, been hosting "Yurifest" LAN parties once or twice a year for most of 17 years and I still learn things from you! Thank you!!!
Meet me at the time that the Helicopter can swim and the Squid can fly.
is that the same giant squid from that previous video? the champion giant squid who got aggrod by air units?
nice to see em living his dream :P
Haha, yes it is!
It used the Chronopshere to go back in time seeking for revenge!
hahahahah that's pretty cool. Also the song from the blooper section gave me strong Banjo Kazooie's vibes xD
I've been playing this game since it came out and you've shown me so many cool things and with humor! 10/10 channel, sir!
Thank you so much!
I had no idea the siege copter was so vulnerable to giant squids, bahaha
Lesson from this video : Never teleport anything straight to enemy buildings
Unless you have a death wish.... aka suicide bombers.
Those bloopers are more interesting than the content itself.
For me, the most funny chronosphere use was when Bryan Vahey was playing on an all-ore map against two Yuris. Both were stronger than him.

Here is the video. th-cam.com/video/YqRKdev8MKQ/w-d-xo.html The most funny real-battle chronosphere use!
It was excellent!
Love this game
You failed this time
haha you've failed to farm likes (you've probably never played this game in your life)
Im amazed by you again Comrade!
The video was perfect, im enjoyed as well.. Thank you for that Grand Comrade TG!!
I never knew that you can do half of these. Mind blown 😱
That Kirov trick was crazy.
I always liked the demo truck in the transport with crazy Ivan. I usually put an iron curtain on it and just ran it through the enemy base unloading trucks. It was cool just watching it blow up multiple times XD
Holy frick you can chrono a chrono legionnaire?! That makes perfect sense yet in all my years I have never tried it
Ohhh haha those bloopers are the best!
Loved the bloopers more than the actual video ❤️
the octopus on the chopper is the best! xD
That Memories get me This my friends. For 15 Years I've Played this Game. Thanks.
I'm a simple person, I see a nice RA-2 video - I put like! =)
1:34 ok, the fact that you can use chronosphere on chrono legionnaries is mindblowing to me. It's logical, but because they are infantry it never crossed my mind that it was possible.
Floating squid! LOL
Oh my, can you imagine if they were doing to your air units?
Personal ranking:
1. Happy Death Day! (3:07)
2. Than more than better! (2:32)
3: Flying giant squid! (4:42)
Should be 1 and 2 together. Up to 36 demotrucks.
#6 and #4 tips are useful. #1 tip is impressive. Other tips were used by me earlier😅
Now way! I had no idea that chronoshifted helicopters can remain "floating" on water. This glitch is a game changer.
Yay! That eager squid finally got his air units to munch! Hahaha
Top ten uses for an Iron Curtain.
1) Invincible Tanks
2) Kill infantry
3) uhhh...hmmm
4) oh yeah! Save buildings
5) uhm....
6) Yo Jack! Got any uses for the Iron Curtain?....well that's what I said!
7) Sell it for a few troops
8) Epic team strats with Allied Chronosphere? Well thats something for BOTH chronosphere and ic, thats lame
9) I feel like allied gets a lot more fun gadgets
:(
10) Make something invincible. That's literally it.
8 seconds of invincibility is a long time in RA2.
It can remove Terror Drones.
Makes them immune from Chrono weapons(legionnaire and chronoshift) AND mind control.
Though yeah, Chronosphere has better versitility.
This is super creative and hilarious haha great video
where did you get the art in the video thumbnail? I've never seen that detailed model before
I just found the Chronosphere and edited in the background image.
That Chronosphere can easily be found on google.
@@tg.Sacred but it's very high resolution art. I can't find it
@@Preda.Y send me a pm in discord and i will sent it to you
Hmm. Load tanya/seal/Yuri prime in amphibia/helicopter. Cronosphere it to water. Unload. What will happen?
Dunking tanks in the water is always my favorite.
If your Chronosphere about get freeze or delete by the CLegion after you select location 1, you can still select location 2 and use it again once the CLegion stop delete it (doesn't works in YR however)
You don't try to check what if the siege copter with giant squid dies on the land?
Same thing, chopper will sink.
The flying squid was awesome.
But chrono in a kriov was pretty neat. Good luck stopping that before it drops atleast a couple bombs.
You can use ctrl+F2, F3, ... and then F2, F3, ... to "bookmark" and then view that location on the map, like how you create teams and double press their number to center the screen on them. That should avoid some of those bloopers :)
That was awesome 👍
Will you make an another video with Mental Omega?
Yes, of course!
This is so fun to watch than I expected! 😂
Haha no more Quarantine from Covid 19!
The full amphibious transport shift I've seen before. Imagine 36 tanks coming out from 9 transports but granted it is very expensive to pull it off, and not even sure whether it is that even viable in competitive play.
Hearing kirov reporting is terrifying.. now you instantly appear in base direct from mcv.. damn.. ALT F4..
I wonder if the squid fell on land, would it just die instantly?
I think some of those demo trucks didnt quite make it!
Squid would die from the chromosphere!
@@tg.Sacred Not if the chopper flies with the squid
Why is this video healing my soul?
I could use the 'No more quarantine' one right about now

Still my favorite RTS ever. Are there any ways to actually play it on Win10? Preferably a workaround to get the original disc to work.
Install the game and run it with the CNC net launcher. It's your best bet.

hmmm that gave me an idea for kirov rush lol ..
but yea i always abused the libya trucks more often lol
