C&C: ShockWave is an enhancement mod for C&C Generals: Zero Hour. The main goal of this mod is to make Zero Hour a more interesting game with more diversity between the generals, making you think twice before you select a certain general, and overall provide more choices, diversity, and strategic freedom than in Zero Hour - while keeping the spirit and design direction of the original Generals game and storyline.
Altough it isn't a railgun in the true sense
of the word, this vehicle actually fires a highly
concentrated beam of superheated air, kept stable
by a rotating magnetic field. It has the ability
to pierce several armoured vehicles, before
eventually plunging into its actual target.
same physics as the railgun
Maybe but in fact it a plasma cannon from what I understand, or else it wouldn't work. Logically at least. (Only ionized air can be controlled by a magnetic field)
(buried)
ok. I will stop pointing out what they have already, they are just putting too much in
Stupid
kinda cool I guess
If it shoots straight, what if there's a hill in the way?
it goes around
ic learned that the hard way 2 day :(
@thevladernuaght
This is fraking useless vs. base defenses...
It explodes like the Wisp in WC3 when destroyed.
really? haven't seen it explode yet. but i'm currently playing the mod .
Hills seem to be the only thing that can stop the projectiles.
While it's decent with line of sight targets I feel cannon and missile arty gets the job done better, especially when there's a hill between the target and the weapons platform.
the tank is too small :(
Superheated air? It's a hair-dryer tank! JK, the GDI's rail guns for C&C3 weren't "real" rail guns either. They were just a generic (albeit really cool looking) energy weapon called rail guns.
you know in cnc3 if you looked really close when the railguns were firing..just as they fired a small projectile led the "beam" to the target....it took me just over 2 years to find it
anyone else noticed this is matches the descriptions of the Melta guns of Warhammer 40K ?
i don;t have this gun
pretty detailed.
Reminds me about Prism tank from CNC RA2
good ol quake 2
