RA3 Unit Profile - Empire of the Rising Sun Yuriko Omega

[Sonic 296]

I really enjoy the unit profiles posted on the Official Red Alert 3 Site. And the good news, another one has been posted featuring the Empire of the Rising Sun's Yuriko Omega. As always, this profile has a short in game video, concept art and extra information. Here is a sample....

 

Based on the transmissions intercepted from the Empire of the Rising Sun, this woman is known as Yuriko Omega, presumably a codename. Records of the exact origins of this Yuriko Omega are either highly classified or may not even exist. What has been gleaned, however, is that she must be the rumored survivor of an intensive program conducted by Shiro Sanitarium, a private paramilitary R&D firm seeking alternatives to Japan's increasing dependence on high technology in its military affairs. That program must have been dehumanizing to the say the least, yet the results seem self-evident: Yuriko appears to have powers that can best be described as monstrous. Her mind has been "sharpened" to such an edge that it can cut through entire squads seemingly at her whim. How exactly this power is manifest, or what effect such powers must have on this woman's psyche, is also unknown.

I will hate this unit... I will.

What I don't like about the unit is that it looks too much like wc3 sorceress.

 

Also, it borrows too much from Yuri: floating, psychic infantry-ownage blast, hero unit for the 3rd faction, even the name Yuriko is a borrowed one.

Okay after the burrowing Zerglin... er I mean.. Tankbuser and now this I think I'll put off buying this game unless the SDK turns out to be good.

Either her graphical shell is leaving or I am. This game deserves better than such a silly looking unit.

Its Yuri's granddaughter. Yuriko

 

I agree with Hagren. Get rid of the hoodie.

At the very least have her untie those tails- Then it's ok.

[Saracen 16]

Finally, Japanese Schoolgirls have a use outside....errr.... anyway, Is she related to the RTS version of Empire at War's Darth Vader? She has the exact same abilities, but lacks a lightsabre, and the cool looking black outfit that happens to make anyone sound like James Earl Jones

 

I try and ignore unit profiles so I can have a bit more of a discovery when the game comes out. But this unit is so ridiculous, so Japanese, so Red Alert!!

[Doctor Destiny 41]

Hell yes. Epic unit.

[hagren 0]

Yeah, people like her. Perhaps it's just me thinking about Moaning Myrtle (The dreadful annoying movie version) when I'm seeing her in-game footage and/or those tails, hence my disapproval

[BioBen 3]

Ick. Too much japanese pop culture.

[Saracen 16]

I already know the actress playing her

 

OK, I'll post it on the front page

[Red Blitzkrieg 0]

I dun care as long as she's psychotic...........>.>.............I have simple needs

[Gben 20]

Yeah the graphical/animations for this unit don't work for me. I like the concept art though.

[Luk3us 63]

She looks retarded, in the bad way.

[BioBen 3]

What is the good way?

[ORCaLoVeR 0]

Im afraid im gonna play Ra3 as with C&C3.

 

 

Allies and sovjets.

 

GDI and Nod.

[General Leang 0]

I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT! Though this...

 

 

...was closer to who might have played the Japanese commando.

Purple hair makes you more dangerous you know.
