    Since 1995 people have been complaining about the awful AI in C&C games. The fact that they made a remaster without improving this at all boggles the mind. Such an AI makes a game unplayable by today's standards. You can forgive horrible for a 25 year old game, but not for something that is new.

    Игра мусор, для тех кто ненаигрался в оригинал, для всех остальных не стоит внимания, текстуры почти теже, АИ такой же унылый, физики нет, по факту ничего нет, зачем тратить на игру деньги я не знаю. 5/10

    They game is a faithful remaster of the original, with bonus content galore and modern quality of life features. They did a great job up-scaling the original videos, the will not win any awards, but for what they had to work with it is impressive. The soundtrack is amazing and graphically there is a clear upgrade while not throwing out the original style or feel (zoom in if you want to see more detail).

    At $20 bucks, this is well worth the money. 2 Complete games and all associated DLC are included. They even went and included content from the console version of the games that PC players originally did not have access to. Plus, the team worked with the community to create the remaster. So if you want a true "remaster" of a classic, and not a "re-imagining", grab this game and see how other companies should do it...    … Expand

    Faithful to the original even with all it's faults. That's fine with me though and the new graphics looks great. Hoping they remake the rest in the series!

I have later briefly played the original C&C and RA, but never got that much into it since i thought it was dated compared to RA2.. Then as an adult I bought the total collection and started playing again. This time; i also thought the early games was dated, but I suddenly discovered the quality and charm about them. I still played RA2 and Generals, but now I had a silent hope they would remaster the series. The hope strengthed when starcraft got its remaster and AoE 1 and later 2. SEing the great jobs the programmers did to those games made me wish a C&C remaster even more. Naturally I was estatic of the news of the remaster. And now it's here. Having more or less never played the original I was pretty excited and the expectations were maybe unfairly high. However I was not disappionted... At all. The intro was brilliant in every way and I emagine all of the 90'es players will sit and put on a nostalgic smile the entire lengh of it. I know i did. The graphic and interface is crisp and siuts the game well. the gameplay is what it is, with the slight bugs in AI and etc suiting and game from 95. And I didn't want it any other way. The quality of life additions to the UI and game it self is amazing and the outdatedness is almost terminated, but in a way where the game never looses its charm. I'm half into each of the four origian campaigns and loving it. This remaster has really brough the games quality back. graphics, sound, gameplay is as current as ever and with the original charm intact, this is a must buy for any RTS lover. Old og young. .. Now I just hope a RA2 and C&C TS is in the works... please...… Expand

A ton of cool extra's like behind the scenes recordings of the fmv's and bonus tracks. The team behind this product really went the extra mile.

    They even left in bugs and exploits as the original. This is staying true, no doubt and I know that a lot of people will appreciate the original experience, warts and all. Still it would have been nice if they fixed these ancient issues and have an option to disable the fix. They did include all the code so that programmers can easily make mods to fix this, so thats a plus.

    I'll be honest I didnt expect this move from EA. I hope they keep this up! It's a long hard road out of hell but this is an excellent first step so kudos to EA for doing the right thing! (And f*** Konami and Blizzard for their cynical anticostumer practices and the s**t they pulled with their disgraceful butchering of Silent Hill and Warcraft 3 "remasters")    … Expand

    It reminded me why I fell in love with PC gaming. Rarely has a game been able to capture the imagination as well as Command & Conquer did. The game holds up amazingly well, the story is still engaging, the new remastered music is fantastic, and I can't wait for the next one. After Fallen Order, this is the second time EA has done right by us. Thank you!

    Me encanto, le meti muchas horas de juego, lamentablemente no llegue a probar el Red Alert en un solo mes que es lo que me duro la membresia. La verdad que esta remasterizacion le metieron muchisimo cariño, las nuevas texturas ahora en 4K se ven muy muy bien, ademas podes alternar rapidamente con el juego original apretando el espacio, esta muy bueno el soporte para monitores 16:9 ya que el original era en 4:3, el menu tambien se actualizo manteniendo el estilo del juego original, la musica remasterizada en mejor calidad y con temas ineditos que estan buenisimos.

    Lamentablemente solo jugue al Tiberian Dawn, lo jugue completo con el DLC The Covert Operations y las misiones especiales de consola, por lo que la historia esta muy buena, no es de lo mejor pero esta bien, lo mas importante en este juego es su jugabilidad de estrategia.

    Que hablando sobre esto ultimo, merece varios puntos a parte, en general es un juego de estrategia, de eso no tengo quejas, el problema es que no la adaptaron para las epocas actuales, porque es estupidisima, el movimiento de los tanques es absurdo, para ir de un punto A a un punto B es toda una travesia ya que el tanque va a ir por donde quiere, va a ir chocando con las paredes hasta que llegar a destino, no la va a costear o rodear, va a ir por el camino mas largo y dificil, lo mismo pasa con las excavadoras, para esto ultimo usaba los muros para que vallan mas rapido al tiberio. Cuando mas me molestaba esto era en las partidas online cuando queria atacar a alquien, las tropas van por cualquier lado y no pueden atacar mientras se mueven por lo que son un blanco facil y me quedaba con la mitad de las tropas para cuando llegue a destino para ahi si empezar a atacar. Lo mismo ocurre cuando atacan tu base, las tropas se van a quedar como espectadores, ellas por si solas no se van a defender.

    Otro problema son los aviones, es inutil usarlos porque en el aerodromo, solo va a recargar municion un solo avion, y tenes que hacerlo manualmente uno por uno con los aviones que tenes, no lo van a hacer automaticamente, lo mismo para repararlos y que encima te consume tiberio. Tambien atacar con aviones es un problema, el objetivo tiene que estar si o si quieto, si esta en movimiento, los aviones no van a disparar ni 1 sola bala.

    La superarma es inutil, el cañon de iones de la GDI especialmente, porque solo hace daño en 1 solo punto, no ocurre lo mismo que en el misil nuclear de Nod en donde hace daño a todos los enemigos o edificios que esten dentro de un determinado radio. El cañon de iones ni siquiera tiene el potencial de derribar un edificio completo, siempre lo deja a la mitad de vida, lo mismo ocurre con el misil nuclear, pero este al tener un radio de ataque si puede eliminar a todas las tropas.

    Otro problema es la exploracion del mapa, un gran fallo para el modo multijugador, si exploras la base del enemigo, siempre podras verla, la cantidad de tropas que tiene y anticiparte a sus ataques, es un arma de doble filo, es malisimo esto.

    En conclusion, es un excelente juego para el año 95, pero es un mal juego para la epoca actual pero con graficos si adaptados para el 2020/2021    … Expand

This was something the game was undeniably lacking in Tiberium Dawn and Red Alert. Being able to seamlessly toggle between modern and legacy graphics is brilliant, so you can see how far the series has come from its infancy to now. So many cool features too, like the jukebox and being able to go back and do mission varients which couldn't be done in the original. For example in Red Alert where you have to help Tanya escape there are 3 different varients, and when you complete the first one you can go back and do the other two. This wasn't possible in the originals so a lot of thought has gone into this. I'll likely be playing this game for the next 10 years. An absolute bargain at £18. So much nostalgia!… Expand

    2. Отдельным пунктом - поведение харвестеров. Это что-то с чем-то. Постоянные тупки, нарезание кругов вокруг refinery, вместо того, чтоб разгрузиться. Компенсируется только тем, что ресурсов тут много, а разгрузка быстрая.
    3. Запредельное количество багов для продукта от такого издателя и за такую стоимость. Первым делом меня встретил мигающий курсор. ОК, обновил драйвера на видюху, отключил отрисовку курсора видюхой (а без обновления не отключалось!)! Далее, я понимаю, что у меня не игровой комп (core i3 3 поколения, 12 гигов рам), но блин игра работает нормально только после ребута компа. Даже если по монитору ресурсов занято 5 гигов, а проц на 7-10 процентов, игра будет лагать как сука. При чем, при запущенной игре проц в сотку не долбится, а свободной памяти дофига. И все равно лаги. Ну и как финальный аккорд - на 12й мисии в ред алерте у меня сломался дамаг. Все юниты перестали наносить урон. И мои, и противников. На этом для меня пока гейм овер.

It is a remaster perfectly made of both games with so many bonus functions of flavors, etc., which is very positive. A very nice surprise was also the multiplayer mode in which it was very fun to play, anyway you can feel that it is a 30-year-old game but the developers did a great job in this respect. This is a perfect remaster, it has all the inaccessible additions from the ps1 version, it improves the graphics interface, it adds a lot of flavors for older players and cool features like changing graphics in real time, the whole thing with soundtracks, etc., custscenes are uncompressed and in super quality. I recommend and for those who played this title from the 90s and also to new players. A remake for five with a plus.… Expand

    While adding remastered graphics and a modern UI, Remastered Collection avoided dealing with 20-year old shortcomings of the original game, like poor pathfinding for infantry and harvesters, for instance. On the other hand, these flaws will definitely make your missions much more exciting on higher difficulty settings.
