The AI is a fvcking cheating bastard! :|So I started playing Firestorm again and started right away with a skirmish. I've spent 8 hours now trying to beat the AI with no success. I've even built another base litterly right next to theirs, defending it with two oblisks and several sam sites, and building up tons and tons of troops, cyborgs, tanks, etc.

But no matter how many waves of troops I send in they are always able to fend them off. If the AI played by the same rules as me then I would have defeated it hours ago. I know it's cheating because as soon as I destroyed its construction yard, two mobile construction vehicles were built then deployed almost instantly.

I keep destroying their power plants and I know they are low on power because their turrets stop working, yet they can somehow still fire their ion cannon and their build speed doesn't slow down at all. Everytime I destroy a refinery it rebuilds instantly in another location, infact, it seems like when the AI is under attack and a critical building is destroyed it rebuilds it instantly without needing to wait the normal amount of time.

Oh yeah, and 1/2 the time I get hit with the ion cannon the game crashes and I have to load from my last save point.

In C&C generals...they always attack the money making buildings/people. It really annoys me lol 🙂

I've always played the hardest mode on skirmish games...and usually team mates aren't helpful lol (AI team mates)

I always play US and do tank hoard. There's nothing scarier than a huge army of tanks that can negate missiles coming at you only to be preceded by a fuel bomb and a ion cannon.

Finally beat the AI. Basically what I did was bomb all of the bridges, which cut off their money supply. Then I sent up a bunch of obelisks where the only land path was to more tiberium. I kept wiping out all of their harvesters and they kept rebuilding. Finally after picking at them for a while I deployed 10 APCs full of engineers and took over everything I could then sold them. After that I sent in the army and they were toast. 😛

cutting off their supply is always the best :thumbsup:
 
I never even finished the Nod campaign for Tiberian Sun. I never bothered playing the expansion. God those games sucked. Was Red Alert made by completely different people or something?
 
holy ... Tiberian Sun? I got that game for kicks because I saw a friend playing for it. I played about three levels before I got pwned and gave up.
