OpenRA is all well and good...until you want to play Tiberian Sun, or Red Alert 2

I'm still a little salty as someone who donated to the project in 2013 to add support and it's still not even at "alpha test"



If it's making you salty.... I don't think it's fair to call that a donation.

I unfortunately don't have a better word yet, what's a word for money that's freely given but only with the expectation of some return in exchange?

I'm also disappointed there's no OpenRA2... That was without a doubt my favorite RTS!


I know it's an open source project and I'm not "owed" anything

But watching them just drill away at every pixel of Tib Dawn and Red Alert 1 is like watching the Sistine Chapel be repainted as the world's most intricately beaten dead horse

Was anyone really asking for a "C&C in-game wiki"?


The word you're looking for is "gift." That is a gift.


I considered and rejected gift because it's disingenuous to say it was a gift given without compensation, when compensation or consideration is is expected.
