Command & Conquer™ Red Alert™ 3- Uprising

Dasha....

Base game is better, this one is just a forced expansion, cash grab. Story is absolutely not fun, the Yuriko mission is badly designed.

With this expansion to “Red Alert 3,” the developers made some interesting choices. Most notably, they dropped the co-op commander mechanic that featured so prominently in the base game. In its place, most missions now follow a more traditional structure, with longer maps and evolving objectives. The Yuriko campaign, however, stands out as the most experimental. For the most part, you control a single hero unit with special abilities, offering a very different gameplay experience compared to the rest of the content. That said, the campaigns themselves are quite short. If you’re a completionist, you’ll likely spend the bulk of your time on the dozens of challenge missions instead. These are exactly what they sound like—maps with tricky objectives, handicaps, and optional time limits to crank up the difficulty. I enjoyed them for the most part, though I’ll admit they wrapped up just before they started to overstay their welcome. All in all, the “Command & Conquer” franchise has never shied away from weirdness, and this expansion is no exception.

Good once realized it Red Alert 3

Red Alert 3 was a golden gem when it was released. It had a unique style, fun gameplay, and great music that made it stand out. Even today it is still enjoyable to play and brings back good memories for me. Love it!

Despite being singleplayer it holds up well.

Soviets are still running you over, Allieds somehow got even more insane late game (except the harbinger imo), and the Empire still has the same issues they already had despite the units added to help make up for it ((why the hell did they think Archer Maidens would solve their anti air infantry problem!?))

Commander's Challenge is the best and worst part. I wish it was structured better on when you get certain techs or how to progress to the ones you want, but hey, that's where most of my hours went.

Bought this game through steam 15+ years ago. It's the only EA game I have installed and I just got randomly and unjustly banned by EA for violating their "User Agreement or Terms of Sale". I have absolutely no idea why I got randomly banned by EA and they won't tell me. This game doesn't even have multiplayer. I appealed the ban and they say it's justified. This negative review is also justified. Thanks.

i wish this one had multiplayer but i know why it doesn't, units are just way too op, i can't let them go, the challenges mode is my highlight, other than the units that is.

One of my all time favorites games!

i need more maps

Game is very good!

If you love Red Alert 3’s absurdity, Uprising is basically the afterparty where no one’s sober, the music's too loud, and someone just released a bear with a jetpack. Highly recommend if you know exactly what kind of chaos you're signing up for.

Meh DLC but it did come in the package so its ok

giga

fun mini campaigns

love this game so much. need red alert 4

An oldie, but a good game.

GOOD GAME

Capped at 15 FPS with no option to undo it. Fuck EA, i want my money back.

good rts game

A classic!

...

While it sucks to see how much the campaign is scaled back (no co-op, very short campaigns, only a depressing timeline where the Allies won RA3), the challenge missions and the new units are great fun.

i like it

30 fps lock makes it basically unplayable.

The campaign is great. Unfortunately there's no multiplayer

A good nostalgia trip. Janky, but fun

fire game i like the new strats you can use because of all the weird tech

C&C veteran, been playing the games on and off for decades. Can I just say, as an overall statement: WHERE'S THE AIR DEFENCE?! Been playing Skirmish to get used to all the new units, buildings etc, and even a medium AI just spams air units constantly and within 2 minutes and all you have from every Empire is weak little buggy-ass Anti-Air units that get killed in one shot from any bomber and do pitiful damage. Ooh, I can garrison a Missile Trooper in a Turret, can I? So what, just give me specific Anti-air units and buildings for every Faction. GDI Slingshot from Kane's Wrath anyone? Fucking two of them could hold off the whole air force of a Brutal Empire. Like the previous games every empire needs a dedicated anti-air unit that cannot attack ground units but wrecks Aircraft. Fucking atrocious otherwise. Just constantly getting the shit bombed out of your units and bases with no real way to build up your forces and mount an assault.

There are a few anti-air units for each Faction, but they're all just so mid at best. And if you can't fight off constant air-raids, you can't do anything else. Your assault forces will have no AA ability because anything worth sending to fight ground units or buildings is pure ground-attack. So they'll get chipped away into nothing before they reach the enemy base. If you send the few mixed-AA+ground units available for each Faction they're even squishier so they'll get destroyed even faster but maybe they'll take a few Aircraft with them. By the time they get to the enemy base they won't be powerful enough to do much damage.

The only good unit that's generally an all-rounder is the Rocket Angel. Flying, attacks ground and air but has low health. But oh, they bombed or superweapon-ed your Barracks, so now to get more of those you have to rebuild not only the building but then also spend time doing TWO building-dependent promotions that reset upon destruction. Why have it like that?

Oh, and the big Superweapons take 2 fucking minutes to charge, so fuck you if you didn't get one first because you're getting your base rocked, and bases take ages to repair. To get at the enemy Superweapon building, try fighting through a horde of enemy flying shit with your shopping cart-ass anti-air buggies and whatever handful of air-weak tanks you can muster before taking serious base damage and getting finished off with bomber or Promotion directed-attacks.

In all previous games on Skirmish I've only ever had my Con Yard destroyed by Brutal Steamroller AI, but in this game I can get that done by even a Medium Strategic Air Command AI that I _chose specifically and still just cannot muster the Anti-Air against_. There are no good units for any empire.

The Promotions system stuff is unlocked far too fast and for nothing, and only serves as a distraction to humans and all bonus to an AI that can manage that kind of thing simultaneously with other tasks. You barely get a chance to read the description for half of it before you're attacked, something important happens in game or you could be doing something else strategic in the meantime. It's like watching TV in the background when you should be playing, if the TV is a list of semi-useful little skills that freeze two enemies, swap places with them or get a Supersonic jet to do 12% damage to one of their buildings. But with the AI they've got everything in the tree unlocked in 3m from constantly destroying your units and they just attack you with twelve different things every minute.

Buildings are more fragile than previous games, and take twice the time to repair, With the previously mentioned rapid superweapons and air attack with little defence, you're getting fucked with no time to recover. Russian War Factories also don't heal their units for some reason,

"Campaign" is one mission for each empire, What?! The first one was also strangely difficult and took a few tries once I got wiped out by the artillery.
Some goofy Challenge mode seems to have taken development priority instead where you very slowly unlock units after each challenge. Ugh, no thanks. Why is this a thing? Campaign mode is legendary in every C&C game, what were they thinking with this challenge shit?

In conclusion, every previous "big" C&C game (not you, Renegade) was far superior to this. Even Generals was FAR superior to this mess.

If you like C&C you will like this one

god

pretty neat continuation of previous Red Alert, shorter campain but the challenge section is gonna devour fat hours from your life along with your mental state and sweat

Why tf single-player only????

Dub game before EA bought it

how the fk does one refund this bullshit piece of crap

best free play rts for pc

When it works its way fun.

This game is a blast! I highly recommend it! I is fun and you can be a good commander and taste real action!

Nostalgic

first mission is impossible on easy, love pretty much every other C and C besides this one because the first mission is legit impossible to beat, they get my scientists no matter what i do on easy, shits dumb how you gonna be a C and C game and not even have a barracks to make more units on first mission?

good game

old but gold

Actual review

This game bore me after only completing all Soviet Campaign. This expansion feel meh not impactful like Kane's Wrath as in plot. The gameplay also made every faction broken on each other and the Allied still meta with cyrocopter AND NOW WITH CRYO LEGIONARE (and now they have AC-130, ffs allied -_-)

But overall this expansion is alright, just don't expect with their short campaign on each faction.
BTW not playing Yuriko campaign because I've just give up after completing all 3 faction, especially bulshittery on last mission of Allied and maybe second and third mission of Rising Sun.

No multiplayer, even over network???
