Player Focus Series: cap^



Today's Player Focus series comes with everyone's favourite creepy Hungarian, Mr Cap^. A proud board member of CnCNet 4am Alien Chat, find Cap^ lingering in the Keep off the Grass and P4 rooms. By day he can be found lost in a bong cloud and researching existential philosophy. [answers in bold]:

1) When did you start playing Red Alert?

1996, missions and skirmish, but I joined online play on CnCNet in December 2015.

2) Why do you like Red Alert so much?

I don't have a good answer to that. [00.21]<[> a retarded baboon can play this 25 year old game with barbaric graphics.

3) Which games do you play apart from RA?

I love builder games, my all time favourites are Rollercoaster Tycoon 1 and Transport Tycoon, but recently I got hooked on Cities Skyline.

4) Who do you consider to be your greatest rival(s) in your time playing?

I don't have rivals, but since the majority of my 1v1 games were against bart on KOTG, I consider him to be my worthy adversary.   

5) What is your most memorable game?

Definitely with Crush against two top pros (forgot exactly [Lauta & Soul?]) on P4 2v2. Crush was playing Allied, the rest of us were Soviets. He did an early deploy and light tank rushed them, slowing them down while I could gain momentum to spread out with building. He took my depot and later a CY and went early CYs with dual faction techs. Thereafter followed an early Chronosphere with Tesla, simultaneous with helis and tanking. I just moved south step by step and we won. I've never seen this tactical feat from any player ever since.

6) Who is your favourite  RA YouTuber/streamer?

Breakdown, Lauta and Ford.

7) What is your favourite map?

Keep off the Grass (KOTG) and King of the Hill (KOTH).

8) What is the single best tip you would give to other players?  

Play with players that you like, try to avoid the assholes and don't take it too seriously. 

9) Are there any changes you would like to make to Red Alert/CnCNet?

  • Anti-cheating mechanisms could and should be more sophisticated.  
  • More admins and moderators are needed and would be beneficial.
  • A less toxic pro scene to keep more aspiring players interested.

10)a) Would you like to give a shoutout to anyone?

Bart for the KOTG 1v1s, Gin for the countless random Bo3 games and Stacks for being hilarious.

10)b) Any final comments?

Break's momma is so fat she once squished a mammoth tank.
