C & C : Generals Online Multiplayer

[Radi0h3ad]

Hey all

Don't worry this wont be about the bugs that ppl have been complaining about im sure future updates will fix those, basically i was just wondering what the best strategies were in C&C Generals for online play?
Some of you ppl must have pld it enough to be able to know what to build and what not to build when playing online so what's the deal? Has it changed from the previous games where all you need is a **** load of tanks?

[hoodedrat]

i've been running into a lot of guys that all they build are base defenses and then like 20 tanks and they wait for me to attack and their base defense demolishes everything and then they take their little group of tanks over to me and kill me , also I'm wondering if there is cheats for this game already because I played tournament Islands with 1 other person and I got every single supply from 3 / 4 islands, he was GLA and he somehow managed to get 3x the amount of supplies that i got, i do not understand because he only had 2 of those black market things, i heard people talking about a trainer in the chat lobby, if there are cheats for this game already that is such bs and all those homos who use it really suck

Two black markets can keep your whole GLA army supported, i built 3 SCUDS and about 50 + tanks, buggy's, demolition trucks etc, just with two black markets.

I think my problem is that i tend to worry about defending my base and seeing wat the enemy is doing rather than concentrating on getting a tank force built.. I usually play as USA for the convenience of seeing the enemy base but i find im always low on cash, resulting in ownage

my best cheapo way is to use GLA

and build those PickUps

they are the fastest and easiest

and THEY upgrade on the Go

so a PickUp can easily turn into a TANK just by behind in the battle field

so in essential it's the cheeessyest tactic you can use

kinda like making tons of zerglings and rush rush rush

I love the Scorpions coupled with it's home-made missile, and anthrax, it can take out tanks, infantry etc .

Then i like the buggies cos they are mega fast

And the Technicals cos they can turn into nasty b*d's when they have the missile launcher and are veterans.

GLA are my favourite army, and the Zergs were mine in Starcraft .

[AllGamer]

China and USA they are well Balanced

but GLA is too "gay"

these guys are too darn easy

i'll see every Online game and people using GLA all the time, i betcha

[Radi0h3ad]

Nah i've found most ppl online are China for some reason..

[AllGamer]

Cuz... that's the Very first Missiones they get before GLA and before USA

so people get more used to them

and on a side note

people LUV!!! THE NUKES!!!

that's the more attractive thing about china

and the Mines around each building

gosh they are pretty when Intruters gets in

or when they try to attack your building

Does anyone else experiance lag?

Even playing LAN with a computer a room over over my LAN it was laggy. Is this game coding, as no other games do this?

[hoodedrat]

i dont get much lag at all unless i'm playing with someone who has a slow comp/internet connection... other than that its smooth sailing

yeah i played a 4 player on a 10/100 network .. the computers were a Xp 2400+ , Xp 1800+ Xp 1700+ and a Duron 900 .. we thought it was the duron so we told him to get lost .. so we played with the 3 Xp's and it was ABIT faster but not by much .. ALSO one of the players kept getting kicked out of the game , as soon as ONE building was finished it would say Didj Defeated .. whats with that ?

then i played and got me *** kicked with china but it was 2 vs 1

I don't know, if you can figure it out, then tell me please!

[GenearlFoxz]

i have sent a thread thingo into EA games concerning this problem and i will get back ta yas all on it

has anyone Noticed that WESTWOOD is nowhere to be seen in this game ? i mean if you look in the credits you see Generals was Inspired by the original CNC series so this isnt really a Command & Conquer game just a rip off iam thinking i do know that EA bought out westwood also but dont they usually have a Westwood Logo at the start ??? Eg Yuris revenge and Ra2 ?

[Radi0h3ad]

I've found EA games to be generally poor in the past ( the FIFA football games were too commercial and sacrificed gameplay for example ) and I don't know how far the C n' C franchise can go without Westwood behind it any more.

Generals is class and I'd recommend it to any1 but I think westwood contributed to it in a small way before totally dissapearing..

Hope the series doesn't go to **** now

oh btw, I use Norton 2003 and I have to turn it off to play generals online ( doesn't seem to want to create access permission for generals or summat ) and sometimes I recieve a message on my desktop in german from haaker central?

We were on a 3v3 and we all got it at once, wtf is that all about???
