...the same script from ra2 that causes the game to pause but the video transmission in the radar is playing...

 
I have discovered a way to create artificial lag!

????

[Handepsilon]

Mapper thing, just ignore it

[UNSC THE CHILL OF WAR]

On the mission "heaven and hell", why is there an allied runway in the soviet base? You can just see the veey bottom corner sticking out the top of the map.

[TheWankBank]

Maybe they captured it?

[Tathmesh]

I think Speeder said that runway was necessary for the scouting harriers in the mission to work properly.

[Gameman112358]

Yeah, Speeder did mention it, mainly because no runway or airfield somewhere in the map means that the Stormchild will crash and go down mid air.

I just played juggernaut, and in any naval wave from the west/left, there are 2 zubr's that decide to ignore all logic, and climb a vertical cliff! They then follow the road and go down to the beach then drops off the tanks.

Also, the Chinese forces have borillos instead of armadillos.

(Wolfhound spam needed for this mission. Plus, much lag, much units - the first time I tried this, the game crashed due to epsilon spamming of... everything!)

[edumm]

Just a few suggestions of new missions for analysis that came to my mind in the last days...

 

Coop-missions:

 

(2) Allies: Monkey's Planet

Bloody Soviet-funded armed revolutions in the Congo region have destabilized all of Central Africa and now threaten Allied protectorates in the south of the continent. The Expeditionary EA's force must finally the revolutions.

Objective 1: Contact the lost Allied outposts.
Objective 2: Prepare defenses and expand the bases.

Objective 3: Destroy all Soviet monuments in the region.

(2) Soviets: Bio Risk

The Yuri's have discovered that the Soviets are producing new deadly biological weapons in Voz-Island, Aral Sea. This dangerous bio-weapons should not fail in the wrong hands.

Objective 1: Protect the Biological Lab complex from Infiltrators.
Objective 2: Establish a base on the island.
Objective 3: Eliminate the Yuri's naval forces and the Naval Shipyards.
Objective 4: Eliminate the Yuri's costal bases.

(2) Epsilon: Black Tide

The Strait of Malacca is of fundamental importance to the world economy, both to the Allies and to the Soviets, the eventual control of the region to break economically the major powers. Yuri's naval forces must fulfill this task.

Objective 1: Build and protect strategical naval bases.
Objective 2: Destroy all Allied and Soviet cargo ships that cross the strait.
 

Single-player missions:

 

Epsilon Covert Op: PRISION BREAK
Location: Somewhere in East Siberia, Russia - Player: PsiCorps

A psychic cell of Adepts was sent to frozen Siberia for forced labor in a Soviet camp, naturally the high-ranking Soviet comrades who are in the area are unaware of what is going on in the minds of the new prisoners... this will be the Yuri's first great opportunity to control their minds.

Objective 1: Controlling the mind of high-ranking Soviet members.
Objective 2: Evacuate all controlled high-ranking Soviet members through APCs.
Objective 3: Sabotage the main camp base.
Objective 4: Keep at last 3 Epsilon Adepts alive.

I was doing the deception challenge ​as USA and I found this thing what is it?

 

also, in the brief for the same challenge, It says "To make things worse, a storm is brewing". ​what is the storm? as the challenge just seems to be 3 invisible epsilon base's.

[Handepsilon]

That Watch Tower is the object that makes the player invisible (edited for the map)

 

The 'Storm' is several Wormqueens around the map

 

Btw, 'The Yuri's'? What the hell is the yuris?

So i tried the scorpain cell challenge, and it was literally impossible.

Easy difficulty (dont flip out at me for picking easy, most missions are ahrs, even on easy) me as USA and blue. Allie is red Russian.
Launch game. Loading screen. Then the game appears. Then my MCV turns purple, i lose, end of game. Allie unaffected. Game lasts 7 in-game seconds. Tried 3 times, the same thing happened again.

How can i prevent this? Do i even want to do this challenge? Can i even do this challenge?

[Janusz Olender]

This challenge is bugged, just don't pick USA. Any other faction will work.

yeah this bug was reported earlier in this thread. USA seems to be the only ones affected by it

[Handepsilon]

The trigger was owned by United States and explicitly said to turn the house to the AI, which is the reason why any US MCV turns purple instantly.

After some reading a lot in mental omega wikia and playing. 

I have a theory about libra while in dance of blood she doesn't have voice lines I think she is the real one and the one in obsidian sand was only a copy a clone of her self as we see in dance of bloods mission description (the European Alliance forced yuri to bring his ace card early) so why when she killed in obsidian sand nothing happened and the mission didn't fail in addition that she was stronger in dance of blood.

 

note:again in the right place  .

Except she wasn't a clone, it was the real Libra. If you haven't noticed, there are several missions where heroes can die in battle if they aren't important to the objective (I believe Eagles Fly Free is an example of one with Tanya). This is implied knowledge based on the objectives, where it'll say "Hero mus survive until such and such is completed" (Another example is the Epsilon mission where you control Rahn and Malver, and have to bring them to the Epsilon base. After that they can be defeated without repercussion). Libra being able to die in Obsidian Sands isn't indicator of anything special, especially since Rahn can also fall in that mission, and as we all know, there are no heroes with clones or cloning capabilities (aside from Libra).

[Janusz Olender]

Besides, that Libra in Obsidian Sands was also significantly stronger than in multiplayer, even though not as powerful as in Dance of Blood.

[Handepsilon]

When they die ingame, they don't really die, just incapacitated.

Even though the game depicts them melting to a Desolator fire.
