I always feel like an idiot after watching these videos. I forgot that the riot gun special weapon could tear down a building. Once I saw that, I was able to get unstuck on this level.
Tips if some of you choose to rush unsuccessfully: choose Japan faction, quickly build 2 gold factories then build war factory. Don't bother to defend gold factories. Next quickly build 6 or 8 mecha tango flying unit. Get 2 of them for each gold factories to guard. Then you see the blue mother***** stop bombing you for awhile. Get the next 2 gold factories on the south side of your base with same tactic then build some metatango and attack missile flying machines then rush to the bases.
this looks like fun, because i finished the Command and conquers, tiberum and kanes wrath and everything else i honestly need this or something, and down the line i'd get the red alert itself but this seems good enough
If Future Tank X-1 is not yet available once the Commander's Challenge "Future Warfare" must be completed, how come there are already 2 sets of Future Tanks during the start of the game?
@BlackEagle351 Challenge-specific settings, like the unlimited Commando units thing from the "The Omega Program" challenge, where one unlocks Yuriko Omega. This is the reason the 4 Futuretanks already exist for the player.
Love your videos, I play this on the PS3 and just realse how much quicker you can manage everythink on PC :).
A better method for this is build as soviets and create twinblades. With these you can pick up the future tanks and bypass all of the defenses and cross the sea with ease.
@J0sh258 I bet you used the Red Alert button. When you use that button, your time is automatically set to 99:59. If you want the actual time to count, do not use the Red Alert button.
Love Your vids! It's like a Master Class in Rush Warfare... I have no idea how you are microing your Future tanks, tho. When I try that, the Telsas take down at least one of my robots. But you set them to attack and leave them alone, and they take out the telsas while you are on something else... Is there some special planning move you do there or something?
@MarkJoel60 Thanks for the kind words. What I do is that I waypoint the Future Tanks. But first, I set them up so that they will take out the two spectrum towers (or teslas) simultaneously, that way each tower will only hit each tank one time and they will survive and autorepair. Next I set the future tank to attack with their secondary attack on the spectrum towers by a waypoint (hold ALT). Then I waypoint a move command to move away from the towers.
Continuing: Then I take out the towers on the other side of the map in the same way. Then I go back to the first two tanks and take out the last two towers in the same way. By switching back and forth, the tanks have time to repair. You see the process from 1:25 (except the destruction of the towers, because then I start microing the tanks on the other side of the map). It is essential to keep all four future tanks alive, otherwise - it is hard to finish the challenge in less than 5 minutes.

But you set them to attack and leave them alone, and they take out the telsas while you are on something else... Is there some special planning move you do there or something? (I know you are using the special attack... but how are the other telsas not killing you?)
i tried a giga fortress build and destroyed 3 bases then they wiped all my buildings out and i lost..... >:( i only got like 4 out but thats enough to kill all of them its just time i needed. thanks for the help on this one anyways.
err i finished this one but i cant seem to do anymore...stuck at 94%
am i meant to get under par for everything to go on or something?
(i really suck at the gold mine is going to collapse or something...i tried to use so many methods but she kept on building SOOOO many so i was like wtf)
@JointScorrer I experienced that the vindicators (from Giles) were more interested in bombing my ore refinery to kingdom come.. What are your timings relative to mine and whose vindicators bomb your future tanks? If it is from the owners of the spectrum turrets, I think you can manage to get inside to their base faster and target fire the airfield (if it built, if not target fire war factory with one tank's secondary ability, barracks and then mcv with the other tank's secondary ability).
@CrazyOneRA3 i always found them easyer because of the armor that is a yes but for a tsunami to be effective it needs to be in a group which takes time to make
@CrazyOneRA3 When i did this, i used the soviets and called in the twin blades to transport the future tanks to the bases on the east and west to destroy their bases.
@TSMK900 As did I. I think there is a video response above where I have done Future Warfare in 4:53 . If you cant find it there just search for future warfare and crazyonera3 in the youtube search field.
I dont know why you have problems with them. I just choose one future tank and uses its secondary ability (by hiting F) on the tower. Done and done. At the same time, I do the same for the next tower. Then I move back. When the secondary ability has cooled down, I repeat with the next two towers. You are sure you use the secondary ability (the two beams) and not the primary ability (the ball of energy)?
thats what i do but i have it for the 360 you dont have a mouse and you cand hit the f buttion its very diffrent in it takes a while to do esspeshally if your trying to make 1 of your 50 units do something diffrent than the rest of trying to make units use powers on diffrent targets
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
CrazyoneRA3 u r the person with the best time in commanders challege OVERALL in PC version, while I am the one with the best time in XBOX 360 version! ; )
Even funnier since by the time you unlock that mission, it's you who's whooped all three of them time and time again. So first you laugh at it in general, then you laugh at it again with "what does he mean I need another whoopin? I always whoop him". :p
and giles' defeated video didnt show up coz after you beaten him, you fastly destroyed cmdr. hill's base and his defeated video shows up. nice job for that. LOL
i am annoyed when i see giles along with his airforce.
dude, what is the hotkey for calling newly produced units from your far away base to join the attacking group of the same units (like all VX choppers) so that they could attack the enemy's base?
I use the key "w", I think it is default. You must choose one VX, then hit "w" you get all VXs on the screen. Hit "w" once more and get all VXs on the map. Then Ctrl+1, if you want them in group 1.
You must assign one FutureTank to one tower. Also make sure that they attack at the same time. after the attack you MUST drive them back, for the Riot Beam to recharge. Then do it again. You take first two prism towers, then the second two.
EA is weird. They make the Apocalypse Tanks sound like robots in this game, and the Future Tanks don't and they actually are robots. I also find it surprising that a unit used by a good faction has such a menacing voice, but oh well.
I too can't manage to accomplish this feat, I either get my tanks blown up by the towers, or failing that I suddenly have to fight off 8 vindicators and my mecha bay isn't done yet. Usually I have both problems at once. I guess I just don't have the great macro required to do this mission :(
Ohw wow you could destroy the prism towers just like that XD. I thougt the designers placed them there to prevent futurtank rush, so I retreated after I saw them. I probably underestimated the power of future tanks.
Just for the credits and I dont need it anymore. Building anything else is a waste of credits. Also I get an engineer which either a) serves as a great target for the vindicators or b) captures an oil derrick.
I did this under par as Soviets using The Future Tanks,Twinblades and Migs. It sucks that i lost all the future tanks (Damn Vindicators and Cryocopters) but destroyed both Hill and Lydia's Conyards after that i focused on Giles since he builds Proton Colliders using Migs to camp his airbases on each of his base then Twinblades finish the job. Once both his bases is destroyed finish the left overs of Hill and Lydia's when all the future tanks were destroyed and not yet defeated
You use the riot beam, their secondary ability. It one-shots most buildings, except the Construction Yard. At 2:45 I use two future tanks to take out the ConYard of Purple/Pink with the riot beam. Just use the same on the spectrum towers.
actually i only tried this tactic once and didnt make it before i saw the vid but I tried again after i saw this vid and i actually got it. hehe thanks for the vid.
