I picked up a copy of C&C red alert a year ago. Sadly, it's unplayable on modern PCs. At least it was for me. Too many issues, crashes and the game speed not being changeable before game launch and by the time you can change it in game, it's too late and you're basically already way too behind to catch up. It's a shame because it was one of my favorites from the era.
- dhfs 3y agoThere are open source engine reimplementations which use the original assets to play the c&c games on modern machines. See https://www.openra.net/ https://www.openra.net/
- nerdix 3y agoBoth the first C&C game and Red Alert were remastered in 2020 as a part of the "Command & Conquer: Remastered Collection". That version should run on modern machines. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_%26_Conquer_Remastered_Collection https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_%26_Conquer_Remaster...
