[Sonic 296]

The fifth round of Red Alert 3 related questions and answers have been posted on the Official C&C Forums. As mentioned in the past, these are questions that are submitted by registered users on the Official C&C Forums. You can submit your own questions by posting them in this thread on the Official C&C Forums. Here are a few from the latest round up.....

 

Are Gap Generators in the game?

No, the Allies don't have any Gap Generators in Red Alert 3. However, clever players will be able to use Chrono technology to temporarily hide their units and structures from prying eyes.

 

Will the allies have pillbox returned in RA 3?

No, the Allies don't have a pillbox. Their primary base defense uses the same kind of technology as the IFV Multigunner, which allows players to customize that defense's weapon by garrisoning it with different kinds of infantry.

No pillbox ;__;

That's not cool.

Well think about it, RA has always been futuristic and RA3 is gonna be even more so.

So there gonna go a bit more high-tech than a pillbox, plus when was the last pillbox built in real life for warfare?

[Sonic 296]

I think the answer to the pillbox question makes it up for it. You won't miss it anyway.

The pillbox is more of a mini-bunker to be garrisoned by infantry IRL anyway.

Also, Apoc hasn't answered whether the weather affects gameplay, Weather Control Device or not.

The pillbox was useless- An IFVesque defense is much more interesting and can function as a pillbox, among others.

[Gben 20]

The pillbox was never useless Hagren. But the evolution of garrisoned structures in this instance is reasonable.

Although I prefer dedicated tier-one anti-(insert unit here), and garrisoned structures as a mid-range solution before tier 3 heavy base defenses.

 

I will miss the iconic pillbox.

Yeah, gonna miss the pillbox and gap generator...

 

[BioBen 3]

Gap genarators were particularly crap at what they were for tbh. I never used them.

[Luk3us 63]

RA3 doesn't have shourd, so a Gap generator would be pointless.

[rEdaSbLood 1]

well isn't it still a pillbox, just customizable? this is RA, and things change in this universe. you know, hitler not existing and einstein being killed...

[Gben 20]

Yeah that's right, well my impression is that it would be similiar to what happens on epic units in KW.

So kinda like the modula towers in Tib Sun and KW Epic units combined.
