Would be nice if they finished Tiberian Sun/Red Alert 2 support. I only complain because I put in over $1,000 USD as part of a crowd funding campaign to do just that ...13 years ago :(

#103Earlier quoted context omitted.
When I was a teen I was mostly writing RA2 custom map scripts and rules/units for my friends and watch them battle with my rules in internet cafes. When that was not possible, I was creating custom RA2 AIs, but it was very hard. These days, I'm having incredible fun developing good old AI scripts with LLMs, for my own vibe-coded RTS game. Just choose all AI players here to make them battle each other: https://egeozca…
Huh. You know, I wonder. The API provided to AI scripts must have enough info for limited strategies, but I've never seen what's what. You have. What are the possibilities for just giving Claude that each turn. Yes, insane over kill, but in a couple of years Claude level AI will run locally on laptops...

#104Say what you want about EA, but they not only tolerated Open RA, but they straight up opened sourced the older games.
More publishers need to do this. I wouldn’t even mind a crowdfunding effort( give the proceeds to charity) to release the source for other games.

#105Open RA2 also exists. I think RA2 is significantly better and the peak of what an RTS can be.

They also don't have a choice though. There's nothing illegal or actionable about OpenRA. At most EA could have potentially forced them not to refer to CnC on the github, but even then its not clear that that's enforceable
