'EA' fucked it up? RA2 was never that great a game to begin with. Sure it was good, but not 'great'. Seriously, Westwood did the same shit EA did with rushing games (Renegade it became more noticable) and they would have continued on the way they were and then end up doing the same shit EA was doing. Westwood is gone, they weren't that great so quit fucking crying 'BOO HOO WEST WOOD DID A BETTER JOB BLAH BLAH BLAH' because they didn't, talk out of your ass all you want you know it's the truth.
@BoydTheMilkmanX except EA was already definitely in over in RA2 if not already beginning to take over WW at that point, pressing them with release dates of whatnot
probably because this testing version originally designed the cannons pilot to be male.must have been a last minute check.Not to mention that the aegis shields graphics are completely different.
if u use 10+ athena cannons and make them attack the same target the beam will be big enough to destroy the building and surounding units and structures with one blast
Yes but you can use that for your advantage. You can send one in with it's mirage shield on and units beings concealed is an option at the same time move up other mirage tanks slowly making them look like trees to the enemies naked eye and while he focuses on the mirage tank that's visible you flank him and attack him with trees. The Ents are here. This game is awesome i own it for the 360.
The sphere surrounding the units is a rising sun defense shield that protect units and building inside its radius from any type of attack including super weapons.
Oh man im gonna love that tactic.Having the Athena Cannon team up with the mirage tanks oh that would be sweet.The Mirage Tank while standing still they disguise themself like trees and with their abillity to conceal other tanks that be sweet people be like "WTF WHERE ARE THEY WHERE AM I BEING ATTACKED FROM!!"
Question: Can the Athena Cannon fire at something which is positioned on o higher ground, like a plateau or a mountain ?

Athena Cannons are butt fucking useless...
actually, all the "long range bombardment" vehicles in this game sux.
They always miss and their easy to kill...
TheWatchmen1000 2 years ago
They can destroy static defenses quite easily.
panzerfaust777 2 years ago
of course they are easy to kill... they need ANY weak point, dont you think?
And they only miss if they can't finish their aiming, so you need to protect them

No, the Aegis Shield protect them from land attacks, the Iron curtain protects them fro all attacks.
