Should I review the RA mod on Youtube?

freijon · 12-28-15, 07:39 AM

Hi guys,

I'm new here in this forum but not really new to the game. I was thinking a lot if I should install the Reinforce Alert mod. I heard a lot of good things but also some negative comments. The way I usually make these kinds of decision: I search on youtube to see what I'm going to expect. Unfortunately there were not a lot of vids. Found some of FPSchazly covering LWAMI (btw. I love your vids!), but not much covering RA. I then installed the mod and played a bit with it.
So I thought I could do some vids myself, covering (at least) all controllable platforms and explaining the differences I notice from the vanilla DW version.
However, it's quite some effort and I've never recorded gameplay vids before. I'm a bit hesitant because I'm not the most talkative guy and I'm aware that gameplay vids with a silent person are boring. The other reason is that my mother tongue is German but I'd try to do it in English.

So my question:
Would you guys even appreciate vids like this or does anyone know about RA and there is no need at all?

Regards,
freijon

Would be nice, but that would probably need a MP session.

some of the changes would be shown best in a MP session, I agree. Like the "silent mode" of the Red October Typhoon.

The problem I think is setting the MP up, there is some dark ritual you have to perform.

But if you get it done, I can offer an over agressive RuN nuke driver

Setting up the MP session wouldn't be an issue I think, I've played online with a friend several times (I can't host myself, just join, but that's because I'm using Linux). I just need an IP and then I'm ready to go. Anyway, I think first I would do some offline recordings with the AI to show the different/new stations, textures and weapons. I thought I'd do a quick-mission with all controllable platforms. But only if enough people think it's worth the effort...
