C&C Tiberian Sun Freebie

[Tetsuo_Shima]

EA recently posted C&C Tiberian Sun (avec the Firestorm xpansion) up on their free-to-download classics page. Tiberian Sun just happens to be the best game in the Tiberian series, so if you've never played it before then you are well advised to give it a bash:

The Page of the Classics

They've also got Tiberian Dawn and RA1 up there if you're interested.

Online works?

 

[Tetsuo_Shima]

Yeah, it says something about it in the 'HOW TO INSTALL' thingy. The servers are hosted by some clan, XWIS or something.

For your convenience...

 

[Kasatka]

Not only the best Tiberian game, but the second best C&C game overall, just behind Red Alert the first (avec expansiones!).

Wish they could toss up Generals there
'Tis quite fun to Ion in "GG" smack in the middle of enemy base *giggles*

 

[Tetsuo_Shima]

Am I seeing things? Somebody else that enjoyed Generals? It was China and nukes for me all the way, though. Chinaaaaaaaaa!

China was great fun as well
Played both.

And now time for one of -the- most classic things in C&C:
"Unit ready. Unit lost. Unit ready. Unit lost. Unit ready. Unit lost. Mission failed."

My mum used to annoy my brother and I by saying 'Building...' and 'Unit lost' like EVA from Tib Sun. She still comes in and does it when I'm playing C+C games

I hope you realise that this makes your mother awesome *giggles*

Also: Rubber shoes in motion (RA2)

The Yuri's apocalypse tank was brilliant. Armageddon is here! It will soon be a wasteland.

Apocalypse and Tesla Tanks.

Tesla was annoying enough for troops.
Bringing tanks? Say helloooo to the Apocalypse, moahahaaa! And goodbye to your own tanks

 

[Gombol]

Anybody wanna do some playing together with this?

 

[Dragon]

I miss the king raptors from the Airforce General ... should install zero hour again!

 

[Tetsuo_Shima]

I was playing a couple of games in Generals ZH last night since SwampFae started talking about it. Ah, I forgot how good it was. It's a shame you still get all those stat queens that kick you off their team if they think you look like a liability, or kick you off the other team if they think you look too good.

Those aren't even worth getting owned by you

 

[PsiSoldier]

Tets, I just noticed I have Generals and Zero Hour installed, if you (or anyone else, for that matter ) are up for a couple games of it

 

[Tetsuo_Shima]

Most certainly, good sir. Most certainly! Fae? Dragon? You up for a bit of hot Generals action, too?

 

[elDiablo]

Zero Hour is having issues under Windows XP Pro 64 bit Also, trying to log into the EA Online thingy, it just plain old fails everytime. Guess Hamachi and LAN is the only way to go?

 

[Dragon]

I think the EA Master Servers for Generals were taken offline. So there is no way but Hamachi!

 

[VibroAxe]

I've got similar issues to elD on 64 bit win7. If I could get it to work, I would be well upg" for this!!
