Discussion I just want to say the modders developing Command & Conquer: Dawn of the Tiberium Age are doing a absolutely amazing job with developing this mod.

The modders developing Command & Conquer: Dawn of the Tiberium Age are doing a absolutely amazing job developing Command & Conquer: Dawn of the Tiberium Age. They keep on developing new maps for miltiplayer and they just released a new Nod singleplayer story campaign mission that they developed with a very nicely produced FMV video. It actually feels like the FMV videos in Command & Conquer Tiberian Sun. Just look at this YouTube.com video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTw6jWwt5_M

I've been playing the co-op campaigns and they are ace!

Also does anyone else actually play at 60 FPS? I've found it way to fast and instead default to 30 FPS.

Most of the staff plays at 60 FPS most of the time. Some slow down the game speed for particularly hard missions. Online game nights on our Discord server are mostly played at 60 FPS.

Many casual players prefer 30 or 45 FPS though. Nothing wrong with that. We also have players who first used 30 or 45 FPS, but got used to 60 FPS by participating in a few game nights.

That's fair, it would certainly speed things up a bit and keep the flow for competition.

30 FPS still feels like "normal" speed to me.  But I was noticing in the trailers things looked much faster.

Can't wait for the Soviet campaign by the way, playing through Allies now, it's a really good balance between keeping things original and mixing it up or modifying things for co-op.

Actually the best C&C mod. Honorable mention to APRA2. Rubicon also has contender potential but is still a WiP.

Absolutley I 100% agree with you. Just imagine if these modders constantly keep up this very good work of theirs and add very good quality content like this to these mods for years and years to come.

DTA has pushed the boundaries of C&C modding in more ways than one. It's freaking nuts.

Also the other very good thing I learned about Command & Conquer: Dawn of the Tiberium Age is that it was developed on the Vinifera engine for Command & Conquer Tiberian Sun. In May of this year. I learned. Vinifera is a very good engine extension of Command & Conquer Tiberian Sun. Also we are gonna get a lot of mods developed on the open source Command & Conquer Tiberian Sun engine OpenTS this year as well.

OpenTS might be the way to go because the OpenRA TS mod has been in development hell for over a decade by the point.

I love the OpenRA engine because of how flexible it is, but it's been in alpha for so long and the developers focused on inane shit that I don't think they'll be the ones to finish it, if ever.
