Command And Conquer 3: Engineer Rush Tactic

[GHSTTHERENEGADE]

This was GG when the Yard, Crane, refinery was taken 

[rantingraj]

why the reqiuem of a dream music bro??

[twistedfaiz]

how did you record you match ?

[Wigganator]

@TheExtremeGamerzZ It's a demonstration video. Thumbs up for no raison!!!

[spyder1311]

howdo build a barracks

[Arminski2008]

This is a "give your enemy a WTF experience" tactic

[YRgeex]

the 1. music name is ??

[Wigganator]

@YRgeex The first song is "Requiem for a Dream Remix" by Clint Mansell. The second is "So Cold" by Breaking Benjamin.

[bullseye088]

ive done a better version of this on nod. of course it was kanes wrath. raped high level people but stealthing a reckoner and utting engies in it. rarely fails

[Jambo139]

If your wanting to make sure u win a game, all you need to do is ensure that you control more tiberuim feilds than your enemy.....eventually he'll run out and you can over run him.

Also build emisarys at the start to send out to other feilds, which will give you more income. Then you can concentrate on defence or building your army.

[Tomskicat]

This NEVER works against a reak player

[Wigganator]

It did back in early '08 XD

[salam14111]

are u sure ?

[xgx1000mhz]

Brutal enemy destroy you, and this tactic dont help you, lol =)

[LiangHuBBB]

CY sell all in engi rush destroy brutal.

[rickertheman]

u played an easy

[bodunchar]

hah tried that on same map against brutal, when my apcs arrived he had more tanks than I had apcs haha

[4ppfan1]

nice rush but you played against a com ... so its not that easy to rush that way when youplay against a real player... but anyway very nice rush i like your style

[lukieie]

this is cool, but i think its better to build a power plant, pack the MCV, and unpack at enemy base, and build 1-2 infantry facillities. and just spawn those enginners ASAP and capture the buildings

[ooPaXeRoo]

Nice VID but i can´t here this song any more :(

[CalliberG]

whats the name of this song anyway

[ooPaXeRoo]

reqiuem for a dream; or something like that

[mramf1994]

sigh, look at the info SMART ASS

[ThisNameIsNotUsed]

cool

[SpirtualSuzie]

it was funny to watch but come on should have 1 hour deadline to create what you can for ww3 lol

[LewisLordPr0]

too many people use this song

[william462]

the opposing team's base would be so much more advanced

[killer576]

:D:D:D:D ohh cmon, rush??, sorry in 3 min i have a complete base, with defend. :D :D

So skilless you are my friend, a did your ass if you do only this in 3 mins :D

[SimonTheGreat1995]

if the reckoner is stealthed it's no rush...

reckonerrush is with 2 blackhands...

[COOLDUDELT]

It is better in Kanes Wrath to rush engineer rush with stealth reconers

[onniex]

i figured that tactic before seeing this :) it owns btw! good vid

[Northoc]

The first guy was shit.

[kaine180]

thats a good tatic but by the time it took u to make them i could have done a full scale rush

[goku123super]

i am geting this game on xmas lol

[FieryMastermind]

on this long time i wold already have a big base with anti-everything turrets....good tactic btw

[darkelite824]

nice move. but if you were facing me i would already have anti infantry and anti vehicle turrets up and you wouldn't be able to get through my base with only 3 apc's.

you see unlike everybody else i actually devote allot of time and resources to putting up base defenses. i can get a tech center down in under 4 minutes. i synced this video down and if you were fighting me i would have at least 1 advanced base defense up by the time you get to me.

[gliepner]

Well, now you're just lieing. It takes about 2 minutes for the Tech center to build, and then you gotta think about the other buildings that are prerequisites for the Tech center. not only that but you also have to think about the human (you) rate of how fast you move your mouse around, any lag that's going on, and so on. =]

[zx169]

Who makes a tech center in such a game in under 4 mins?

[redneckelf]

wow that is so fucking dirty. im gona go try it rite now. lol.

[welcomegohome]

wow good idea. this is cool and cheap. i had a little engineer rush strategy of my own. build a lot of engineers, airlift them to an unsuspecting corner, do the radar scan thing for your target area, then shockwave artillery to disable things then rush them in.

[Wigganator]

I tried that, but that tactic only works on the Xbox version for me :-(

[ersia87]

What? how do you mean? why?

[djreggiehightzfm]

:D COOL

[Duckzilla123]

wrong...

[Wigganator]

What about it's wrong?

[Duckzilla123]

You build warfactory first not barracks - so you dont put yourself at a risk of enemy doing an infantry rush and killing off your engineers, hence causing you wasting your resources...

[ahhhhh1123]

dude have u tried to sell his base after ??? (so funny)

[Wigganator]

I usually do, but for the purpose of the video I didn't.

[rockizcool]

pretty good, but indeed only against newbs, cuz most people will already have some defenses and tanks.

BUT anyway a very funny tactic, thxs 4 making ;)

[Wigganator]

Thanks, the feedback is greatly appreciated. I may even play it again some time :-)

[ShadowWolfTJC]

Nice build order, but I think that this order would be quicker:

Refinery (You can build one right away.)

Power Plant

War Factory (Queue up your APCs as soon as it's placed.)

Barracks (Queue up your Engineers as soon as it's placed.)

I don't normally use this tactic online, because if my opponent was smart, then he/she would pack up his/her MCV, plop down some defense turrets, produce a few tanks, etc. I don't use it against tough computer players either, as they'll sell their buildings.

[Wigganator]

Sounds like a good one - I'll have to try it out some time :-)

[teranceha]

do u no how much times i beet poeple with that online hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha brliant all the noobs are retarded there was this one guy who was so slow i made 3 engineers and took his haloo base and sold it harharharhahhar and i also remember killing like 50 rifle men in a buggy hahahahahaha

[Wigganator]

Glad to hear it works :-P

[redSHIFT69]

i remember your mom telling me she was pregnant with you. Didn't use da rubber.

[aqulex84]

this tactic is way to slow.... got a more effective one.. your tactic only works with noobs who really cant defend themselves but anyway nice vid...

[Cryptic645]

nice done

vs KI or real enem.

?

[Wigganator]

This was AI, but I used it against a real player and it worked.

[pumacaine]

should of put commentary on it

[Wigganator]

Really?

Well, I might put a commentary on another one if I make one, but I'm not really into CaC any more.

[pumacaine]

yea i thought it was pretty cool but commentary would keep me more interested.

let me know if you do happen to make one

[Wigganator]

Sure thing.

[boobierockstudios]

very interesting, is this on PC? Do you have an xb360. If so add me GT is Brynladin

[Wigganator]

Yes, this is on PC. And yes, i have an Xbxo 360. My GT is Da Wigganator. I'll clear some space for you on my list.

[AvatP5]

how did you get the camera view to be higher?

[Wigganator]

If you scroll out with the scroll button on the mouse, then it zooms the camera out for a larger view. Also, I have a 20" widescreen monitor, so the picture will be of a higher resolution when recorded.

[AvatP5]

well i know about the scroll part, must be my moniter

[Wigganator]

Ok. Most normal monitors (16" ish) aren't widescreen, so they can't spread the picture out as much. This was the case with my old PC too.

[AvatP5]

i can only play medium graphics on it with my pc, its fast but not as fast as ultra high graphics.

[AvatP5]

wat kind of pc do you have?

[Wigganator]

It's a Dell Inspiron 530 with 4GB RAM, 256MB graphics card, and 500GB HDD.

So, basically I can have a decent picture quality, but not too high.

[AvatP5]

my computer can show the graphics, to speed it up, wat would i need, a better processor, or more ram, i only have a 2GB ram

[BlisteringDDj]

I have to ask, what's the name of this song? Please write it in the description as well ;)

[Wigganator]

The first song is "Requiem for a Dream Remix" by Clint Mansell. The second is "So Cold" by Breaking Benjamin.

[BlisteringDDj]

Thank you for the fast reply! Put up more videos! ;)

[Wigganator]

I'll get straight to i. :-)

[WanderingShadow121]

Hey nice vid. Did you already try to rush with airport and then transport the engis by plane?

Should be a little faster i think, but yours is not bad too.

[Wigganator]

Thanks, and I've used the Airport rush version, but it not only takes longer (so the enemy has a chance to build good defences), but it also drains your resources and if it fails you are very vulnerable.

[WanderingShadow121]

Yep thats a point, i am going to try out your strat ^^

[Wigganator]

Thanks - but this only works on C&C 3, not Kane's Wrath.

Also, when you try this, build a second harvester once you send out the APCs, because it helps get the resources back quicker. But remember to get a Watchtower to ward off enemy infantry!

Good luck :-)

[jarvie10]

hey bro what music did you choose on the first part? could you pm me.. thanks

[DragonSpeak6]

Requiem for a dream.

[LordBurnFire]

so what I didn,t see you how would I now

;(

[Wigganator]

Well, now you know :-)

[LordBurnFire]

Its a easy thing to do on a easy enome do it on a hard one

[Wigganator]

I did this tactic on a 2v2 game online (the first person to be wiped out by this was a person with 100 games played to 78 wins) and I took out the first guy on the enemy team in a matter of minutes.

[E3tiger]

If the enemey already has infantry defence turrets then arn't you a bit screwed?

[Wigganator]

Yes - but if you move the engineers around the back then the turrets shouldn't be a problem :-)

[deviljoe13]

Nice video mate, Might make one myself soon. Just finding the time to set it up then actually tactiv working...lol

[Wigganator]

Thanks, and good luck with your videos :-)

[BigFatLedgend]

is this kaynes wrath or tiberium wars

[swatts100]

tiberium wars

[cru3linside]

suggestion:

build refinery (money earlier) first, then powerplant, warfactory -> 3 apc (take longer) -> barracks -> 3 engineers (ready almost the same time the apcs are) - saved time plus you earned more credits

and you can build a tower earlier, because they might rush as well

[Wigganator]

Well, either way works but this way you get the power plant and barracks ready, and pump out the engineers while you build the refinery, but I see what you mean :-)

[timmy0890]

do the engineers automatically go for the building?

[Wigganator]

No, you have to right click the building when the engineer is selected.

[Maxeee92]

good but a good player would have built towers

[Wigganator]

I didn't really need atchtowers that much, but it is a good idea to have them in case of them rushing you too.

Although, it's not really a probelm if you try this in Kane's Wrath, because it can easily be countered.

[Wigganator]

Woops I meant watchtowers not atchtowers

[Wigganator]

Sorry about the picture quality, but when I played it in movie player it was fine :-(
