/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Best I have is Dig Dug, but that could be wreck it Ralph tune over ruling a few memories

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Dig Dug is an interesting thought (great Commadore64 oldie as well), though not where that quote game from.

It's from the greatest game ever made: Lords of the Realm II

Now that's a studio I haven heard in years- Cesar 3 and Pharaoh days

Can't believe this line is the only reason I'm aware of red alert

[–] [email protected] 18 points 4 months ago (3 children)
[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago (4 children)

I saw some people in the thread mention they're only aware of Red Alert due to the memes. Which is a tragedy, because Hell March kicks so much more ass than it had any right to for a random 90s video game track.

Here it is for anyone that needs some bad assery added to their day. https://youtu.be/e3YzmjmAGoI

Frank Klepaki is amazing! He formed a group called Frank Klepaki & The Tiberian Sons for a best of album.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

it played during installation, didn't it? what a way to build up hype. ah the ancient times when EA games had soul.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Was that EA? I remember Westwood Studios, but not EA.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Westwood is correct, i misremembered. EA didn't take over Westwood until Tiberian Sun, which another one I enjoyed a lot. Still, EA wasn't complete dogshit back then.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Oh man, that takes me back. Thanks for the nostalgia kick

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Absolutely one of the greatest songs in gaming history.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago

Lieutenant Klepacki, report to the bridge.

Rubber boots in motion

Lol, never ever made that connection.

Now you'll never not make it!

Time to build Tesla coils and energy plants all the way to their base

Wasn't that Command & Conquer (which later got the "Tiberian Dawn" part added to its title)?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

C&C was the original, Tiberian wars and Dawn were sequels

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Dawn is the original CnC. Then came Tiberian Sun and Tiberian Wars, sadly they stopped developing the Tiberian series as in no other game came afterwards. Probably for the best.

Then on the other hand we have Red Alert, Red Alert 2 and Red Alert 3. Kinda uninspired imho :)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Indeed.

Also come over to .org since .de is dead :)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Good musical piece either way.

Also no, I won't.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It's alive enough for me. And I replay like it.

Also, the obtrusiveness of some people wanting me to change over is having quite the opposite effect on me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Whelp. Have fun on a dying server with an AWOL main Administrator and where nearly every mod left for .org

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Thanks, I will.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

Music instantly started playing in my head, thanks.

I just finished a round of Red Alert Remastered. Fun game. I was real good at the game nearly 30 years ago. Got in the top 10 on a 1v1 ladder on some now forgotten site.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I bought StarCraft remastered today because I had an itch for RTS. Just 3 rounds into the single player and nostalgia is making me so happy.

Maybe I get the C&C collection next...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Get it, but also get the free version OpenRA.

They have taken the classic game and made it work on modern computers, they have plenty of online servers you can play on, and the controls are more modern than the original C&C games, left click to select, right click to command.

This is awesome! After StarCraft I can harvest some spice and make sure a worm doesn't get my harvester.

Just mass produce a bunch of Tanya's and send them into the enemy buildings.

Their weakness is power, black out their base and nothing can stop you. Good luck

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

That really took a soviet genius to not protect a whole base side and let the powerplants be overly exposed.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

Oi! Oi! Oi!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

This reminds me of when I'd have my devs play Artemis as a "team build exercise" and totally not as an excuse to Star Trek LARP at work.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

I remember playing this on the PS1 against my friend. I had it on PC as well as Tiberian Sun but it was a PITA to try and do anything with any speed or precision using a PS1 controller lol
