Red Alert 3 Q&A Update #8

[Sonic 296]

Another week means another round of Red Alert 3 questions and answers posted on the Official Red Alert 3 Site. 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 couple from the latest round up.....

 

Will the iron curtain be returning?

Yes, the Soviet's Iron Curtain does return as a superweapon in Red Alert 3. Just like previous games, it'll protect targeted structures for a short period of time with the unfortunate side effect of killing any unprotected infantry within the superweapon's range.

 

Will Popular maps such as "Bay of Pigs" (BEST MAP EVER) or "Arctic Circle" be making a comeback or a re-vamp in RA3?

Those two maps specifically won't be making a comeback in Red Alert 3. However, we are including at least two remakes of some of our favourite RA2 multiplayer maps, including Temple Prime, which is a remake of Tournament Map A, and Roundhouse Redux, which is a loose adaptation of Roundhouse Kick.

The lack of bay of pigs and arctic circle is a big disappointment.

With the RA3 Worldbuilder fans will be able to recreate those maps. No big deal really.

Yeah I understand that will happen but most fan maps seem to suffer the problem of poor AI

What about 'A Path Beyond 3' or 'Heck Freezes Over' ? I really expected those maps to return.

Well, the lack of the best map ever sucks, but the other stuff's pretty sweet.

I'm surprised about the subs being constantly visible...
