ApornasPlanet 9 Posted January 14, 2009 I don't know exactly were to put this thread since it's not only about one CnC game but several. With this thread I want to try to figure out the connection between Kane and Yuri. You know in Red Alert Kane works for Stalin. But in Red Alert 2 we learn that Yuri was Stalins advisor. So, did Yuri and Kane co-exist for a while? Or is Yuri a twisted version of Kane due to changes in the space time continuum? Or is he a Scrin mastermind agent sent to earth to stop Kane? If allies win in Red Alert, the series continues with Red Alert 2. And Kane doesn't appear in the Allies campaign of Red Alert, only the Soviet one which leades to Tiberian Dawn. Maybe Kane never existed in the Red Alert 2 timeline. From the Petroglyph forums: Question 12 Question: You said in an interview @ CNCNZ that even Yuri's Revenge fits right? Asked By: Mighty BOB! Answered By: Ishmael-PG Answer: Yep. It all fit. You have to think differently about the C&C universe and how it relates to RA... So, even the events of Yuri's Revenge could have been explained in Westwoods C&C3. So whats the connection then? Maybe Dinosaurs. At the end of Yuri's Revenge he is sent back to pre-historic times and later in the tiberian Dawn era Dinosaurs starts appearing out of nothing. Coincident? Maybe. What do you think?

Chronojam 3 Posted January 14, 2009 Frankly I'm happy RA3 retconned RA2 away. But this is fun to think about. Who knows, maybe Yuri was a damaged Kane clone with Scrin mind control powers that let its ego get too big =P Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted January 14, 2009 I think Yuri is a bastard child and that when he got eatten it was for teh best of the series. <3 Kane. Also moved. Share this post Link to post

ApornasPlanet 9 Posted January 15, 2009 I made this same mistake when I was new around here and I forget who but someone chewed me a new one hmm it's around here somewhere... And what the hell is that supposed to mean? Also I'v been here for almost two years now. ...anyways don't try to compare the two... please Well, I'm not comparing them, I'm just wondering if they know about each other and if they have met and things like that.

Wee_Ooh 0 Posted March 18, 2009 I love the C&C fiction. It's awesome. I've thought about the connection between the Tiberium and RA universe a lot. I sort of wish that they would explain it a bit more. Maybe in the next game. They were probably going to reveal everything in Tiberium. XD Share this post Link to post
Sonic 292 Posted March 19, 2009 The two universes are completely separate. EALA stated this awhile back. Years ago Westwood had intentions of making a few games to link them up but its changed with EA in control. Share this post Link to post
Malevolence 6 Posted March 19, 2009 Originally the former westwood guys wanted to merge both RA and Tiberium universe together. We see hints of merging in the old games and a cancelled Renegade 2. However merging both universes seem difficult and many loose ends remained untied. Now EA comfirmed that both RA and Tiberium universe will remained separated and not merging at all. So live with it. If you want to live that dream of merging both universes or see a new direction to the franchise, maybe one day when you are successful rich man you may wanna buy the C&C franchise trademark and rewrite C&C in your image?

Wee_Ooh 0 Posted March 19, 2009 Just because EA said that they're separate universes doesn't mean that they're connected somehow. I mean, Kane was in RA1. Even if the timeline changed and they're totally separate now, that proves that they were connected somehow in at least one timeline. Share this post Link to post

Malevolence 6 Posted March 21, 2009 (edited) So for a dude who's having a split personality, one having furry animal fetishes, and the other having excessive pr0n fetishes, this is madness! Edited March 21, 2009 by Malevolence Share this post Link to post

Luk3us 63 Posted March 23, 2009 We are getting off topic. Let us get back on track. Yuri = Bad Kane = Good Share this post Link to post
Malevolence 6 Posted March 23, 2009 Nope. Yuri's obsessed with "control" and Kane's obsessed with "his master plan". It isn't fair to judge either of them good or evil. Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted March 23, 2009 I'm not talking morally. I'm talking in terms of general epicness and overall survival. Yuri was a nobody in comparison to Kane. Share this post Link to post

Doctor Destiny 40 Posted March 23, 2009 So why is Yuri so much more bad ass? He just never had a chance to be epic. Share this post Link to post
