Ra3 1.7 patch

Hello all, just a quick CHEER for Red Alert 3, 2v2 auto match ladder will be released in the next patch…..

The Red Alert 3 development team is hard at work on Patch 1.07 and is finally bringing one of the most requested community features to this game: 2v2 Team Automatch! You’ve asked for it, and now we’re delivering it. Tired of teaming up with a random player? In Patch 1.07 you’ll be able to battle your way up our 2v2 Ranked Ladder with any of your close comrade’s in ranked play. Upon the release of Patch 1.07, we will reset the 2v2 Ladder and clear the playing field for new team champions to arise!

While we’re very excited to bring the C&C community 2v2 Team Automatch to Red Alert 3, Patch 1.07 will also deliver a number of other exciting and critical updates to further improve your online experience. Here is an overview of what you can expect:

•Addressing a number of critical multiplayer exploits related to constructing wall hubs, the Chrono-Rift & Cryocopter, and selling your MCV

•Adding a small amount of multiplayer balance changes across all 3 factions. Greg Black is already addressing your feedback from the thread!

•2v2 Team AutoMatch (as mentioned above)

•Fixing Elo “range” functionality during automatch search so that you connect with players closer to your rank and Elo score

•Consolidating and renaming some of our game lobby’s to facilitate easier navigation for the game type you are looking for

•A number of technical fixes. We will post the complete list closer to release.

Patch 1.07 is well in development and will be coming out soon. For more updates, including the complete change-list, keep your eyes posted here at CommandandConquer.com and on our official forums. I will keep you updated as we near the release date.

Red Alert 3 Uprising FAQ

APOC from EA games has released a statement about the uprsing expansion for ra3. ra3 uprising is something im personally looking forward to, tho im upset that its not available on mulitplayer just yet… hopefully they will sort out a decent mulitplayer expansion with maps. Here is what he had to say:

A few clarifications so it’s all in one thread. First off, I made a mistake:

-Uprising WILL HAVE TRADITIONAL SKIRMISH MODE, so you will be able to play agianst the AI with the new units that have been added to each of the 3 factions. We’re also adding a huge number of new maps. While this expansion add-on has a huge central focus on single player, we were able to incorporate traditional skirmish. See below for further explanation.

And now for some more consolidation:

-The Commander’s Challenge which features over 50 different scenarios is very similar to the General’s Challenge Mode. It is not, and I repeat not simply an achievement based mode. This is an entirely seperate component of Uprising comprised of over 50 different challenges which are almost like mini-missions with different objectives and challenges.

-While Red Alert 3 base game is still in its infancy, its important to us to continually give the game strong support with patches, tournaments, etc as it continues to evolve. Our objective with Uprising was not to quickly add a 4th faction to online play. We decided we would try something new and create a campaign expansion that delivered on exactly what many in the community asked for in our research – new UNIITS AND STORY. Uprising provides a continuation of the story line for each of the 3 factions, plus we’ve added a 4th mini-campaign which will be centered around the newest commando, Yuriko. We think you guys will really enjoy the Yuriko campaign and agree that it plays out like nothing you’ve seen before in a Command & Conquer game. While co-op nor multiplayer are not included with Uprising, we absolutely haven’t forgotten our multiplayer audience and will have more info in the coming months ahead.

-Uprising will include a large amount of new multiplayer maps for skirmish play, which we will also make available in near future patches for the Red Alert 3 base game as well. That is pretty cool.

-Uprising will be available for digital download at first release through the EA Store this March, but please rest assured we are looking in to other distribution models which does include retail

-We have not determined the suggested retail price yet for Uprising, but part of the reason why we decided to become a digital download was so that we could pass some of the savings onto all of you out there. We realize that times are tough, so we are making sure that Uprising will be a great value and something that any Command & Conquer fan can afford. More on the exact price in the weeks to come.

Red Alert 3: Uprising

Red Alert 3 Uprising is the new downloadable expansion for Red Alert 3.

Command & Conquer™ Red Alert™ 3: Uprising

Command & Conquer™ Red Alert™ 3: Uprising

command & conquer™ red alert™ 3: uprising


Have a read over what EA said!

The third iteration of the Command & Conquer™ franchise’s beloved Red Alert™ series is returning with Command & Conquer™ Red Alert™ 3: Uprising exclusively for the PC. An epic single-player campaign expansion, the standalone title catapults players deeper into the Red Alert universe, giving them more of the action-packed gameplay they have been clamoring for, while offering a gauntlet of new and compelling challenges with the new Commander’s Challenge mode. Command & Conquer Red Alert 3: Uprising will be available for digital download this March.

”Uprising is a game that in many ways reflects the feedback we have gotten from the Command & Conquer community,” said Amer Ajami, Senior Producer at EA Los Angeles. “We’re giving gamers more of what they want – more of the fast, fluid and fun gameplay, more of the story we began to tell in Red Alert 3 and more cutscenes featuring top-notch Hollywood talent. At the same time, we’re excited we’re going to be able to bring new things to the mix, including new units and the Commander’s Challenge, which is a great way for players to hone their skills and get deeper into the combat.”

Command & Conquer Red Alert 3: Uprising takes players into the aftermath of the epic battles in Red Alert 3, with the Soviets still reeling from a crushing defeat, the Empire of the Rising Sun desperately trying to regain both honor and identity and the seemingly victorious Allies finding themselves in the midst of corruption and deceit within their own ranks. In addition to four mini-campaigns, one for each faction and one bonus campaign centered on the origins of the Empire of the Rising Sun’s commando Yuriko, Command & Conquer Red Alert 3: Uprising will also introduce the new Commander’s Challenge, enabling the players to test their skills against a set of nine commanders from different territories and difficulty levels in 50 unique challenges with their own special rules and unique conditions.

In true Command & Conquer fashion, top Hollywood talent will be delivering the gripping story in full HD live-action cinematics. Fan favorites Gemma Atkinson and Ivana Milicevic will make their stunning return to the high ranks of the Allied and Soviet leaderships and will be joined by an all new set of stars, who will be announced soon.

Command & Conquer Red Alert 3: Uprising is a standalone game and does not require Command & Conquer Red Alert 3 to play. This product has not yet been rated by the ESRB, PEGI or USK. For more information about Red Alert 3, please stay tuned right here at ra3.co.uk

Tell all your mates, enemys, friends… we need to get as many of you to upgrade to 1.6 as possible so ea can test there hardware and software systems. If we do this and help out, we will have less fixes in the future, less downtime and a better gaming expreience.

Read what EA had to say:

As promised, we have completed production on our Beta Patch 1.06! It’s now live for direct download right here at CommandandConquer.com. You will not be able to auto-update to Beta Patch 1.06, you will need to directly download it below as this is a Beta Test for 1.06.

Did you miss patch 1.05 and WorldBuilder?

HELP US TEST THE BETA PATCH! We need your help at 7PM Pacific tonight for a stress test! Just install the new patch, sign online, and automatch from 7-8PM. We’ll be scrutinizing the new match-bot and our automatch servers to evaluate the beta patch. The Premier demands it!

Here are the major highlights:

  • New, Improved Automatch! Get into games much faster thanks to a completely new match-bot system.
  • Balance exploit fix: No more “Crane Exploit”

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

Q: If I haven’t patched to 1.05 yet, do I need to be updated to 1.05 to install the 1.06 Beta Patch, or will it install 1.05 and all previous patches as well?

A: No, you do not need to be patched to 1.05 to install beta patch 1.06. The game will fully update (along with the 1.05 content) when you run the beta patch 1.06 executable.

Q: If I do not like 1.06 for any reason and would like to uninstall it and revert back to Patch 1.05, how do I do this?

A: After installing beta patch 1.06, a new .bat file will be in your root Red Alert 3 directory called “RemovePatch1.6″. Upon running this file, the beta 1.06 patch will be removed and your game version will be reverted to 1.05.

Q: If I install 1.06, can I still play against people on 1.05? Or will I only be able to see and play against those on 1.06?

A: Players with the beta 1.06 patch will be unable to play against 1.05 versions. To clarify, 1.06 players will never Automatch against 1.05 players, and custom games will appear grey in the lobby list if the host is on a different version. We ask that you please encourage your friends to download beta patch 1.06, so we can get more 1.06 games happening in the system!

Q: If Beta Patch 1.06 becomes the official Patch 1.06, will I need to re-download the patch again when you release it officially or will I already be updated?

A: Our hope is that the beta version of 1.06 is stable and provides a solid improvement to the game. As long as we don’t make any changes to 1.06 during the beta period, then you should not need to re-download 1.06 when it officially goes live. However, if during the beta period we discover some issues and need to make adjustments to the software, then players will need to download the updated version when it releases.

Q: If I update the beta patch 1.06 and play ranked games through the new Automatch system, will those games still count towards the ladder?

A: Yes! All games played on both the 1.05 and 1.06 Automatch systems will count towards your ladder ranking.
