C&C: ShockWave

C&C Generals: Zero Hour mod | Released Dec 22, 2007

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.

Report article ShockWave 0.952 October update.

Finally, the silence has broken. Though we've been working hard on RoTR, SW has progressed some as well. The next patch, version 0.952, will not only have a plethora of balance fixes, as well as some bug fixes and some new units. Hit the jump for one of those new units.

Are you picking this up?

Da comrades,

Radio silence is broken at last. It has been a few months since the last transmission, but I bring you good news that the war effort in the west goes well. Reinforcements have arrived and the Red ShockWave Army will soon rise again and march on till the End of Days. Work on the 0.952 patch goes on behind the scenes. This patch will upgrade your combat software with new units, sound effects, maps, voices, model refinements, and further improve the balance between the 15 factions. Some minor adjustments have been made to popular existing 1 vs 1 and 2 vs 2 maps to improve online play.

Today we have prepared for you a special treat. To ease the pain of waiting we are taking the wraps off the Tank General's new Advanced ECM Tank model.

Born out of necessity, this support vehicle was the perfect answer against enemies of the PLA that like to exploit the Tank General's fatal weaknesses: speed and an answer to ranged weapons. Its presence is feared and loathed by enemy generals on the battlefield. The Advanced ECM Tank, aptly named 'The Harpoon' by Kwai's tank crews, can paralyze the largest of threats in seconds, allowing his armor to roll up and finish the job unchallenged.

-Lore by Overdose.

The SWR Team hopes that you enjoyed this media update. There are more good things on the horizon that we are bursting at the seams to talk about. I am excited at the prospect the future holds. Till next time, comrades.

Rocket pack guys and jump-jets infantry have been suggested before; those ideas were all shot down. One of the main reasons is that it's not easy to code something like that. Secondly, this is probably a no-go (things that we simply won't add cause it's too outlandish, mundane, or redundant)

Please, if you want to suggest something, fo it on the forum. (read the rules first)

I think you're referring to one of our easter-egg units. That thing is more or less the result of the dev team messing around and having some fun. It's incredibly overpowered, but it's fun to put in a map and use it to kill a bunch of enemies with it or you can challenge yourself and try to kill it.

It doesn't appear anywhere in-game, so unless you put it in a custom map, you'll never see it.
