It was probably due to high expectations not being met. I never tried the co-op, and I reckon that the game was build around that feature, and don't know, I didn't felt that good with AI at your side, battling with another AI. Japan was another thing, you may have noticed that I have quite an interest in the country, as you see me as a regular in the COMG thread, and well I was expecting more from that. But, again, the balance of the game wasn't that good, and the allied side seemed again to be favoured. This was also an issue in RA2, and I shouldn't have expected anything. I don't know at what time did you played the game, I tried it quite early, and it was quite buggy. They surely have patched everything and that, but I remember that until that game I've never seen a game crashing that many times. I played the Japan, and Soviet campaigns, enjoyed at a certain point, but that was it. Didn't bothered trying it online, nor in LAN, as I did with previous C&C games. EA will probably release RA4, and I will try, and this time I may will try to keep the expectations at a decent level. |
No, that's a fair assessment, I was just interested in hearing your thoughts. I did play it later on, so didn't suffer any issues to do with bugs (at least, nothing I noticed particularly badly).
I wasn't too sure about balance issues. I felt Japan's ability to place buildings anywhere was pretty great; and each side had overpowered units (particularly an army of those helicopters for the Soviets), but you're probably right that allies were the best.
I'm still looking forward to RA4 in any case, if it ever ends up happening :p
