The game is fun but since EA closed the servers the game IS NOT MULTIPLAYER. Steam needs to change the tag to LAN-CoOpShow moreShow less

http://cnc-online.net/ <- go here for multiplayer. With that out of the way, let me just remind you of what you're getting into here - everything about this game is over-the-top - the story, the characters, the artstyle, the units, the actresses' cleavage. Basically, a Red Alert game like any other, maybe except for that last part. There are three factions to choose from, the Allies, the Soviet Union, and the Empire of the Rising Sun. Don't ask. Okay, you just had to, fine. Einstein invented the time machine, erased Hitler from the timeline. Soviets got ballsy and started WWII instead of Nazi Germany which is now nonexistent. Then Allies kicked their asses twice, and at that point they invented a time machine of their own to kill Einstein. "Wait, that would mean there is Nazi Germany now and-" No, shut up and go defend your refinery from cryocopters. Behind the nonsense of a story, there is a jewel of RTS design, hands down. Every unit has a secondary attack, meaning more micro options. There are air, land and sea units (every building except barracks and war factory can be built on water), some can freely switch between two or even all three. Every faction is unique to play down to the way they build their bases, each has something different to offer depending on your preferences and they're overall balanced relative to each other. People might tell you that Allies are the best faction which is kind of true but there was a time when they said the same about Empire so whatever. Just play Soviets, they have bears.Show moreShow less
Online doesn't work on steam version anymore, I'm reviewing this today because I saw it on sale. So anyone wanting to play it online get it on Origin then go to C&C online. Gamespy stopped the online service on June 30th 2014. http://cnc-online.net/ http://forums.revora.net/forum/2728-c-conline/ (Forums) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPrax-e-naU ^^^(Tutorial how to sign up to C&C Online)^^^ http://www.ea.com/1/service-updates http://www.ea.com/news/update-on-ea-titles-hosted-on-gamespy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMsThO6m6s0 ^^^(TL;DR)^^^Show moreShow less
Tim Curry is a Russian premiere who hollers about capitalism and Peter Stormare is a weird drunk scientist go buy this game nowShow moreShow less
Bought together with my friend to play together. The online services are closed which is OK I guess for a game this old.. We tried to play over network and we couldn't because for some reason it says we share the same CD key.. So you basically are too lazy to write some code and stuff to make it playable in steam but not lazy enough to actually publish it on steam. EA games.. Never change..Show moreShow less
