Did you mean: Combustion Co-op?

 

Hold on... Combustion Co-op is basically that? I better check it out then.

 

EDIT: Checked it out. The main gimmick with Morales is there. My need was fulfilled.

I love the idea of each hero having a 'origin' story covert ops!

How can you not recognize Black Snow (Destroyencio)'s co-op map. We've spent a lot of time together with him

Actually, Libra's backstory could be an Epsilon Covert Ops mission, where they try to escort that truck from Warranty Void to safety, but they are not only intercepted by Chinese troops, but the kid-Libra also causing additional random damage to surrounding units, Epsilon or Chinese.

 

Yunru's backstory could be she field testing some equipment, and yes, accidently causing some collateral damage, but by accident also inventing nano-tech.

 

I think Archetype already fits as Volkov's backstory. Doesn't mean that all hero backstories should have the said hero as a controllable unit.

Hmm... i remember 1 easter egg in one mission, or allied or soviet, wich involving psyhic beacon and chineese (?), as i remember, one "car" was moved with gravity field effect. Or thats reference to Yuriko, or... Libra? Maybe i mistaken something.

 where they try to escort that truck from Warranty Void to safety

Solais already said the mission.

Found it. Thats... confusing. It really be handy to know the origins. We know Volkov`s, almost.

Hero backstory missions would fit some heroes more than others.

Especially because some missions in the campaign are basically hero backstory like Huehuecoatyl. It describes Rahn as a sadistic genetic monstrosity that single-handedly destroyed an entire Soviet base.

perhaps sometimes... it's better to keep some things shrouded in mystery, we don't need to know everything about everyone all the time.

Specially if this knowlenge can traumatize someone.

Would noiro's be his cop days as a Rocketer?

[Solais]

Sometimes I wish we had missions/campaign like in Starcraft 2, upgrading units, changing between different versions of the units and all that before missions. I loved that feature.

Comrade general? I found a Blizzard lover here who dare question Khala's, i mean Westwood's, sacred teachings. Send him to Gulag.

Changing their model is rather simple, just modify your own mix files (hopefully somebody would make an user-friendly tool for this some day)

For upgrades we can let people deploy them like plug-ins and cast 'memelodon projectors' all around the map. Not sure if in-game model changes is possible tho, not familiar with Ares.

I don't think you got what I meant.

[Handepsilon]

That's not what he meant. What he meant is the ability to customize your units before you play the campaign, such as its' active/passive abilities, or what type of units which we freely can choose to take (like taking Bulldog as MBT, Archon as IFV, Black Eagle as jet, Riot Trooper as Tier 3 special)

I think it is somewhat possible to do the latter, but that would require massive client changes, possible rules too. It won't be feasible at all with how WW makes RA2.

Or maybe it's not, Skirmish and SP are 2 different things

Edited by Handepsilon, 10 October 2017 - 12:28 AM.

[Solais]

Considering that there were campaign missions giving access to trainable units out of the blue, I think it's possible the if customization is done at the start of the mission, before the "actual" start of the mission. Like imagine, a late Act 2 mission where all Allied factions are allied now, and you could mix and match from all three subfactions which units you'll use for your final assault.

[Hardric62]

Not really sure of where to ask this question, but... Is the name Reznov a reference to the Russian character with the same name in Call of Duty: World at War? One of the thing making me think about that is the fact this Reznov was a sniper before a wound led him to use the Russian PC as a 'replacement'. I'd want a confirmation, if anything to know if it could be added to the Wiki page.

[Speeder]

It's not.

That would be an awesome backstory to have. Imagine controlling him putting down riots and catching criminals. xD
