nothing good...
you can't play as a Soviet forces
Helicopter vision range = 0 (i was laughing for about an hour about it... MB USA have special blind helicopters? :dunno: )
you can't build buildings
gold\lumber icons at "buy" centers haven't been changed
Several units still have WC3 voices (Or VG import russian voices o_O )
And the main one :D
I NEVER THOUGHT that ALIES HAVE MEDIUM TANK ! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Only SOVIET units have :Medium tank ;Mammoth tank

Allies have only light tank !

Allies have light and medium tanks. Soviets have heavy and mammoth.

This map is designed more to reflect the campaign-style action that was seen in red alert's single player mode, where you do not always have the luxery of building structures or selecting sides before the mission. This is not meant to reflect multiplayer, or "melee" action.

Oh, and helicopters had zero vision range in the original, as well.

GOD!!!

You need better description, and the file size is WAY too big. God, god, god!!! Mega fail. I haven't played yet since map takes so long time to dl since it's so big!

EDIT: Remove the music, it may be good, BUT IT WEIGHS ALMOST 20 MG!
EDIT2: You have to import DISBTN icons, since the icons is green when I pause.
EDIT3: According to Leak Check v3.1, the trigger Map Initialization had 6 leaks, Unit Dies 3 leaks, Unit Dies2 4 leaks, Ground Burn 4 leaks, First Battle 37 leaks, Assault1 38 leaks, Routine Attacks 9 leaks each, V2Notice 2 leaks, NotDie 2 leaks, Rond 6 leaks, Base 1 Destroyed 8 leaks, Base 2 Destroyed 3 leaks, Assault2 136 leaks and so on ... GOD!!!
EDIT4: I noticed it was a single player map, so leaks doesn't matter ... But it's much more fun to play with other players.
EDIT5: Real Red Alert has much more infantry ... atleast the second.

Because most of them have nothing to do except to write bullshit comments for statistics [number of posts].

My sir, no one is posting bullshit except for you. At least you could check the date of the posts and initial map release and realize that not all people have uber fast internet, because using modem, which usually means you must pay per minute and downloading 5 kb/s with paying every second you are online is NOT funny!

there is a few things that are wrong. tanya doesnt attack as fast as she should.(speed listed as fast, should be very fast) tanya doesnt plant explosives on buildings by right clicking.(she does in the real game.) you should get a build system in place. you could for example give players an mcv after they have survived for a while.
