Rise of the Reds – or ROTR for short – improves upon the C&C Generals formula while also adding its own distinct elements to it. Most notably, the mod adds two completely new factions, the tank-heavy Russian Federation and the defence-oriented European Continental Alliance. In addition, the three original factions China, USA and GLA have been greatly expanded and redesigned in a variety of ways, with several new units, buildings, powers and abilities to explore and combine in your in-game tactics.
With an ever-growing number of unmanned combat systems entering service with the US military, the DoD has recently green-lighted a new directive which would disconnect the deployment of military drones from American field factories and centralise them at a new, dedicated structure. The Drone Assembly Plant is used to build a variety of military robots. According to many experts, this new generation of drones will fill the niche between infantry and vehicles, providing firepower and protection for a number of specialised purposes at a much more economical price.
Ooooooo....pretty shiny building... O.o "Smithers....release the drones!" muhahah
will drones be rolling along the conveyor belt?
its the little things
GLA hijackers are going to hate this!
Yes, yes they will.
American General to GLA General: Dear general, one does not simply steal my units.
Judgement day is getting closer...
So, can we be expecting to see an expansion to the United States' arsenal of drones in the near future?
Yes there will be, MARS wrote this on the forums:
- There will be a hell of a lot more drone units coming. Unmanned units are basically a proper faction mechanic for the US from now on.
Looks like a cross between the command vented and war factory
Looks great, I like the concept
So when are we gonna get skynet and HK drones? ;P
Ahh... the only thing missing now is a insane, psychopathic AI.
Where's CABAL when you need him/it?
(does that AI even have a gender?)
Technically not, but generally entities (AI's, deity's, etc) that do not have a specific gender either pick what they like best or get an assigned personality, which they may or may not change later on.
I love how these guys come up with all this new content, and don't just throw it out there. They actually stop to balance them!! I mean OMG I have never seen a mod team that is so careful and dedicated to fixing bugs and glitches and balancing the game as well as introducing a ton of new content! LOVE YOU BROS!!!
I actually had a similar idea for a drone assembly plant. You could have it produce a only few different drone types (say anti-infantry, AA, AT) but each time you want to start producing a different type it goes offline for a few seconds to refit the production lines. Once switched, it'll keep making drones, (and subtracting funds for each one) automatically until you switch production to the 'nothing' type. So you can assemble a force of drones more quickly and cheaply than normal but if you don't pay attention it could drain your funds dry, and will be slower than a normal War Factory if you keep switching types.
that i like.adds tactical taste to the game.
what kind of drones will it be able to build besides the sentry drone?
nice work swr production
Why not call a hive nest? :)
