One of my favorite video game webshows, Epileptic Gaming recently died so I've been working with their community to set up a new show untill EG returns. Come check it out the community at http://www.eg-forums.com I'll be hosting a hiatus show from my desk.

You can tune in at http://www.stickam.com/thegunrun

Also keep playing the beta and posting input:

  • Gunther will be made faster and more powerful against infantry, huge splash damage on infantry.
  • Rocket Militia on nod will now be double in squad sizes.
  • Actual loading screen music.
  • Scrin Conyard/MCV gets 20 repair drones that can go everywhere.

C&C Retarded Final - Smackdown Units



C&C Retarded Final will feature, Epic units. Smackdown Units!


All smackdown units are emune to emp/catalyst avatar beams and can survive a direct liquid tiberium bombing. This unit also counts as a structure so if all your buildings die you will continue to play as long as this unit is real.

Cost of all Smackdown units are 10k and your epic structure. They are construable at the epic structure and automatically destroy it when built.

GDI - Gunther, Lord of the Smackdown
Giant GDI Mammoth MK1 Tank
Can go underwater
Has special super armor which stops catalyst avatar beams and also makes it the only unit that can survive a direct hit from a liquid tiberium bomb
Can phase through tiberium
Fires Huge Rounds which do MASSIVE DAMAGE

Nod - The Dark Fist, Kings of the Smackdown
5 Avatars in one squad which replace any of the ones that die in 3 seconds.
Fully Upgraded and and attack flying.
They fire obelisk beams.

Scrin - Spirit Wormhole, Prior of the Smackdown
Giant flying wormhole which kills anything it touches incl. air.
Very very hard to kill due to it's health.

Still thinking about it give me some time... Comment or give me ideas.

My Crap Ideas

Here is a list of ideas that I have had in the past that I felt later on to not do. Enjoy!

  • Release Retarded 2.9 on April 1st where the only change to the game is changing the intro to an inescapable Rick Roll video.
  • Make blue tiberium easy to destroy, and when destroyed kill all things around it including tiberium next to it creating a chain reaction of explosions. Blue Tiberium would have been worth 5 times as much as it is now.
  • Replace all tiberium in the game to breasts
  • The Liquid Tiberium Truck, a Nod vehicle that would hold liquid tiberium. After Temple Prime is made this vehicle would carry this liquid tiberium into its enemy base causing a liquid tiberium explosion (like the gdi one). Max number of unit would be one and cost would be 13k.
  • Hover Mammoth Tank that flew at orca speeds
  • Seed Avatars - Dropped bomb that exploded into 3 Catalyst Avatars
  • Jobber Hives that created controllable Jobbers.
  • Viral Tiberium - Grew exponentially and damages everything. [When I was testing this it grew so fast and so rapidly it eventually crashed my computer...]
  • Father Ship - Mother Ship with a cannon that when fired at tiberium turned it into tripods, huge range.
  • The I'm a sore looser upgrade, costs lots and when you loose your mcv every thing on the map dies.
  • more to come as I remember/create them
If you don't get it, these ideas will never happen unless I feel like modifying them or popular demand.

C&C RetarDEAD


As of today C&C Retarded is officially dead. Sorry guys! :(


Update: April Fools!

Edit:
C&C Retarded 3.0 (FINAL) will be coming out in a while. Currently I and swamped with AP homework/projects/papers/lab reports, so yeah... Keep telling your friends about retarded and continue to support my mods.

P.S. Kane's Wrath currently does not support any modding, so yeah Kane's Retarded will be delayed until EA releases a patch that will give it a mod browser. So yeah, keep lobbying EA for the KW SDK/Patch!

Peace!-
TheGunrun
