I dunno, I felt that title was pretty specific, lol...

People have been talking about it and I really freaking miss this game so tonight Im gonna throw it on my computer and play some online games like back in the good ol' days! Post your screen names and let me know if anyone wants to join and rehash their skills!
 
I actually have the whole First Decade installed.
However I haven't tried online yet. Is it still through west woods?

Those were some of the best games ever.

Ive got the first decade too but never installed it on my new machine. Im not sure who handles their online these days... I hope it still works
 
Either the first guy I played totally sucked or Ive still got my finesse because I lit him up with Korea in like 15 minutes lol
 
I was under the impression that you can't play RA2 online since Westwood Studios doesn't have any servers up. I've gotta see if I can find my RA2 and Yuri's Revenge CDs and try, otherwise Hamachi could probably be used.

Click to expand...

It does still work, Strike-Team are running it as I just found out. You don't need to create and register your account. Simply click custom game, and follow the prompts, but don't click create account.
 
It certainly brought back very fond memories for me last night!

I guess I have never understood how people churn out units so freaking quickly, even when Im allied with them and can watch! There must be some sort of strategy to it that I never knew :P I was 2 for 2 last night which isnt bad after a 3 year hiatus. My name is Ukulele on the custom game server so let me know if anyone wants to play tonight :D
 
How does it work...cause i got a friend who I'm sure would give me the game but he's also already played it online.

He doesnt play anymore. Would he be able to give me the game? Would i log into his account or could i make a new one?
 
^^^ Its easy and it wont matter if you use his code because the online is handled by a different server now. Just go to custom game and your set.

Im starting a game in 15 minutes if anyone wants to join, Ill wait about 15 and see if I get any takers. USA Command The password will be 'alpha'
