Edric O Posted February 23, 2002 Share Posted February 23, 2002 So, paul, are you saying that a game is a rip-off of Emperor just because it has the same number of playable armies? Riiiiiight... ::)Westwood made YR because RA2 sold so d@mn well. Besides, YR is NOTHING like Emperor. It's a totally different style of RTS.And I happen to like YR better than Emp.

paul_of_arrakis Posted February 23, 2002 Author Share Posted February 23, 2002 basically YESanyway, if you like RA2 more than Emp then WHY are YOU involved in making the new mod.NO-ONE INSULTS EMPEROR AS BAD AS A RA2 FAN CAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted February 23, 2002 Share Posted February 23, 2002 But as this is a dune site then the arguement is going 2 b biasedPS:E:b4d is better no matter wot Arbites saysPPS:I agree wif Paul up2 a certain pointcos the whole C&C series is a con on the whole of the Dune seriesIt is all based on Dune2 the original RTS game.

Timenn Posted February 23, 2002 Share Posted February 23, 2002 It's not a ripp-off, only that the games have the same basic principes. Then all games are ripp-off of the first person who developed the term 'game' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobdouds Posted February 23, 2002 Share Posted February 23, 2002 Timenn has a point. But both Red Alert and Emperor are made by the same people, so how can it be a Rippoff I ask you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ligic_Tha_Master Posted February 24, 2002 Share Posted February 24, 2002 Yes, WW made both C&C and Dune. How can they make ripoff's from themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted February 24, 2002 Share Posted February 24, 2002 ehm.... i agree with the thing that yuri's revenge is not a ripp off..... i only want to tell you that ra2 is made by different people than emperor..... ra2 has been created by RA fans....

Ligic_Tha_Master Posted February 24, 2002 Share Posted February 24, 2002 And how do you know that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edric O Posted February 24, 2002 Share Posted February 24, 2002 Both RA2 and Emp were made by Westwood, so YR can't be a ripoff.Paul, by your logic Emperor is a ripoff from Starcraft... Which we all know is a stupid idea.Just because I like YR (and I mean YR, although RA2 comes close) better than Emp doesn't mean I don't like this game, too! Besides, I also like Tiberian Sun better than YR. Tib Sun (+/- Firestorm) is my favourite game of all time. But even though I think it's much better than anything else, I don't play it as much as the newer games any more... No matter how good a game is, you're still hooked by the newer ones eventually.

Timenn Posted February 25, 2002 Share Posted February 25, 2002 What a stupid magazine is that! TS is a good game, a whole new graphics interface + good and fun missions. And also good units and nice type of terrains. No, don't touch TS, cause it is one of my favorite games, and sorry TS, but Emperor is better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aribites Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 YR is no way a con on emporer. Â Just because they have tha=e same number of sides, does not mean Emperor was copied!!!!! Â It is a totally different style of game, set in a different time AND is better than b4d.Anyway, cuase we're talkin' bout b4d,SARDUKAR RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Terror Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 well i have no problems with people who like TS... it's just i was very disappointed cuz i didn't like any of the units.... Mammoth Mk2... how did they think of it... yugh.... banshee fighter awfull... but to get back to the point... TS was just way less than i expected... the first TS screenshots were amazing.... 3d terrain and units.... many options like powering down certain buildings and stuff.... and none of those things were in the final version.... me and my first thought it was a joke or something....

mushman29 Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 The Atreides machine gun post defence has a gatling gun... hmmm. That sounds awfully familiar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 the first screenshots of tiberian sun were actually 3d... it looked realy cool.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardauker-Kirov Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 Well, Who knows. The Westwood team wants to rip them selve's off by making some other games. Â ::)Btw, I think Tiberian sun doesnt follow the Original C&C story line. The units of Nod arent Original. Same goes for the GDI Side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 well.... the thing that makes me think RA2 is better than TS is because of the units.... there are few units in tiberian sun that i actually like.... RA2 has many original units... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemafakei Posted March 2, 2002 Share Posted March 2, 2002 "The Atreides machine gun post defence has a gatling gun... hmmm. That sounds awfully familiar"Dating from C&C1, and the Rocket turret was even older - DII.But does it matter? Gatlings are often deployed as defence!
