This game is already dead...
Why devs release game without hotkeys, or even simple attack-move is beyond me. They could at least improve UI and make game controls modern. Also meta is incredibly boring in C&C I read from veteran dev on reddit. It comes all just to micro of tanks... Another RTS which could be successful, but no devs don't know what hotkeys are in 2020... It is mind-boggling to me, why all these RTS game which failed miserably didn't include hotkeys.

PS: all you had to do was modernize UI and make game playable in 2021... Not everyone wants to play old-school game like that without hotkeys... Another waste RTS simply because devs didn't include hotkeys... All you needed to do was look at Starcraft II and copy its hotkeys... Importance of hotkey layouts and customization was already figured by blizzard in 1998... But no modern RTS do hotkey system well. That's like half of reasons these games are basically dead on arrival... Then if game is imbalanced, lacks diversity and gameplay itself not fun, then game is instantly dead...

Low effort troll detected. Doesn't own the game, didn't play the game, didn't even look at the actual features list.

Yes, it has hotkeys, lol:

Definitely a troll bait thread.

Why you still couldn't come up with a good troll bait in 2021 is beyond me.

If you want modernised tank heavy RTS with hotkeys, attack-move, a complex meta and all the other trimmings, I would point you in the direction of Wargame: https://store.steampowered.com/app/251060/Wargame_Red_Dragon/

A game from 1995/96 is probably not going to have those things.

Are you dumb? I Am not talking about simplistic basic hotkeys. I Am talking about modern hotkey system. Don't you have to build using mouse still?

Also there is no attack move and you can't even change move to command to right-click I don't think...

Nor there are basic control like hold position, stop etc. which for modern RTS is like wtf?

At least if they are gonna release old school game, they could improve mechanics. In 1999 this was okay, but not today... Might as well to make it playable for current generation, which is used to modern hotkey system...

You can use hotkeys to start constructing building and select them when construction is finished when it's ready to be placed. How is that not modern?

I hope you're not talking about having to use the mouse to actually hover over the location and then use the mouse to actually place it because that would make you the dumb one.

Also there is no attack move and you can't even change move to command to right-click I don't think...

Nope, no attack move but they wanted to stay faithful to the original game. And yes, you can in fact change the attack/move commands to right-click.

Nor there are basic control like hold position, stop etc. which for modern RTS is like wtf?

Units won't move themselves to chase your enemy so hold position isn't even needed. There is in fact a stop-command though. How is that not modern?

At least if they are gonna release old school game, they could improve mechanics. In 1999 this was okay, but not today... Might as well to make it playable for current generation, which is used to modern hotkey system...

This is a remaster, not a remake. It still has a good modern hotkey-system.

In conclusion, your trolling attempt has failed badly.

You don't even own the game. Half of the complains are already in the game :steamfacepalm:
Are you dumb or pretending to be dumb? I'm asking because I am really concern.

OP is a StarCraft 2 fanboy who cries because other RTS games aren't exactly like Blizzard RTS games.

And by the way OP, this game is from 1995, not 1999.

Only to pick a position to place it down. What, you prefer arrow keys for that? Then you're going straight back to the era from before the mouse was even used in gaming. Yea, that sounds modern.

It's been abundantly clear that you "don't think", yes. And neither did you check the links I provided, because one of the images in the features list clearly shows it can switch to right-click control scheme.

Attack Move is just a lazy way to replace proper micromanagement with letting an AI system manage your attack. It goes directly against the individual unit micro that is prevalent in these games, especially in Red Alert. If they had added that, and you tried using it online, any skilled RA player would laugh his ass off while circling around your heavy units and picking them off one by one without any losses on their side.

This isn't Starcraft. That stuff doesn't work in C&C.

You should really do some research before spouting such complete nonsense. The C&C games had those controls even before the Remaster. Which was back in 1995, by the way, not 1999.

See this game for what it is. It is not made for nor marketed to a younger and dynamic audience but, rather, an old, static and nostalgic one that wears rose-tinted spectacles.

C&C is dead and it should remain so.

C&C has never died, lol. People still play even the original.

I mean that's kind of the reason this remaster was done in the first place.
