Combined Arms brings Command & Conquer and Red Alert action mashed together into a single OpenRA powered game and the 1.0 release is out now.
This sounds really cool but I’ve never heard of it. Can anyone vouch for the safety of the programs?
I have used OPENRA before, it’s safe.
It’s also open source, so you can go dredge the code yourself if you are really concerned.
Ok, after backing up my computer just in case I tried it out and it’s dope af
This is a stupid question, but is this a port of the actual missions from C&C/Red Alert, or just inspired by them?
I think these are new - there’s a comment on the project page asking about “playing the classic Red Alert maps” and one of the devs replied they would require some modifications to work.
Besides, original missions can be played with OpenRA so I don’t think they would port them here without at least adding support for the new factions (which in turn would require changes in story?).
That’s just my guess based on some research though, I’m not a specialist when it comes to these projects.
