30 years later, do you still act on instinct?
>that kid who only played the console ports
>we are going to have to act... if we want to live in a different world.Also, the more I listen to Frank Klepacki the more I realise he was just a hack who copied Nine In Nails. Case and point, compare "Hell March" to the bridge of "Heresy" which was released almost a year before.
I'm a mechanical man.
>>12057654Played red alert 2 as my first C&C, could never adjust to 1
>>12059038Same on RA2 being my first, but I never mind playing the first game. The remastered versions are my preferred way of playing RA1 and Tib Dawn, but I was always able to tolerate the original versions up until then.
(just x7) do it up
>>12057969Frank is definitely not a hack, if you listen to the entirety of his output you can hear the talents he had. The only soundtrack where I question this is TS because I know he did not work alone on that, and I question how much of that was actually him.
>>12057969FLA's Tactical Neutral Implant was released in 1992. Wouldn't you say Klepacki stole their stuff?Seriously, it's just EBM in one of its countless forms.
>>12059258>The remastered versions are my preferred way of playingi got excited for the remaster, i had the originals back in the 90's, as well as the psx games and first decade version on pc which doesnt work with correct colours on anything above winXP, couldnt remember the last time i got hyped up for a game especially being an oldfag, i downloaded a repack of the remaster just to try it out, and im glad i did, if i payed money for it i'd be demanding it back, the remaster is built on top of the MS-DOS versions which no one played, its not the same as the win95 version which is the same version which was on psx and first decade which was what i was expecting, instead they remastered the worst version of the game, absolute trash.
>>12060750This post is so much bullshit, I don't even know where to start>first decade version on pc which doesnt work with correct colours on anything above winXPIf you can't get classic C&C games running on a modern windows machine you must be tech illiterate retard.>the remaster is built on top of the MS-DOS versionsIt is not. How the fuck did you even come to this conclussion? What do DOS version and the remaster have in common that Win95 version doesn't have?>MS-DOS versions which no one playedMS DOS Tiberian Dawn is the OG version that everyone played back in 1995-1995. Windows version was an afterthought that didn't even appear until 1997.>which is the same version which was on psxPSX was its own version, based on the DOS original Windows version didn't even exist when that port came out.>remastered the worst version of the game, absolute trashIt's trash for having awful ingame artwork that looks like ai slop or fanmade hd texture pack.
>>12059525You don't need to question that. The soundtrack album tells you which track is made by who. It's only the modern Spotify releases that fucked up the credits and gave him credit on all tracks.https://www.discogs.com/master/14534-Frank-Klepacki-Jarrid-Mendelson-Command-Conquer-Tiberian-Sun-Soundtrack
>>12061017>If you can't get classic C&C games running on a modern windows machine you must be tech illiterate retard.no reason to play the original 95 discs on a modern OS when the first decade is superior due to the updates and extras, such as cutscenes from the psx as well as the psx/n64 missions. >the remaster is built on top of the MS-DOS versions>It is not. How the fuck did you even come to this conclussion? What do DOS version and the remaster have in common that Win95 version doesn't have?yes it is, they are so zoomed in you cant see shit on the screen like the dos version, and it has a drop down menu like the dos versionim mainly talking red alert, i actually compared screenshots i took of the dos version of red alert and the remastered legacy version, they are the same except the remaster version looks worse than the original dos version, its like a degraded cut and paste with oversaturated colours. the HD textures are built on top of the original game allowing you to switch back and forth at any time, the original game being the MSDOS version. you have actually compared them right? you know with eyes.>MS DOS Tiberian Dawn is the OG version that everyone played back in 1995-1995.yes i know tiberian dawn was originally msdos, there was no reason to use the potato msdos version of red alert other than to accentuate the difference between the shitty dos version and the HD graphics>PSX was its own version,again i should have mentioned i meant red alert, the psx version is the 95/first decade version, only difference on the screen is the sidebar. its the same gameplay wise, not like dune 2000 on pc/psx they both look different in game.>It's trash for having awful ingame artwork that looks like ai slop or fanmade hd texture pack.i thought they did a good job with the new menus and the remastered soundtrack with an option to use the OG soundtrack, but the dos version of red alert is just a shit disappointment.
>>12057654I only played the Red Alert games.
>>12057827yes this was also me, i had the win95 versions first, then got the psx versions, its not the easiest to play with a controller, but i had 2 official psx mice, also a few years back i converted red alert/retaliation and played through it on psp which was pretty challenging, i swear it was harder than pc, also you cant save on psx you only get a password after finishing a mission, never played the n64 version but im pretty sure its based of the shit dos version, you can at least play the missions on the first decade which as i already mentioned is a nice addition.also ive got retaliation for the pc, which is a bootleg my grandparents got me from singapore back around 1999, pretty sure the disc pre-dates the psx version of retaliation, its basically a heavily modded version of aftermath with units from tiberian dawn and like 100 or so custom maps.
>>12057654The remaster NOD campaign is dogshit thanks to the GDI airstrike AI.>>12057827We didn't have a PC growing up, and after seeing the original version around a friends I wanted to play it so much.The PS1 version was much harder due to no saving and passwords existing for levels. Sometimes I used the Nuke cheat over and over to destroy the enemy so I could see the next cutscene and find out how the Tiberium War was going.
>>12061037Sick, the one I have, and the one that incorrectly credits everything is the later re-release of the soundtrack. TS in general always fucked with me because the OST is missing a bunch of songs from the game. But yeah, I wasn't aware the original soundtrack release actually had proper credits.As a side note this confirmed my suspicion that all the best TS tracks weren't Klepacki lol.
>>12057654No I just build like 40 dudes and throw it at the enemy base and see if that works.
