Let's play a game of 6 degrees of separation...

and see if any of you can connect Silent Hunter 3 to Total Annihilation.

And this isn't just a silly game. I have a good reason. And those that know the answer before its asked might know whether its fair to answer. That'll be clearer when this is done.

Let the games begin!

Got no idea. You mean TA as a game or just a word describing something. IF you mean the game, I'm blank, but if yo mean a word, the my connection of SH3 and TA is my modded U-Boat U-26 from Hell and 300 Allie ships taking a beating from my boat!

I do mean that glorious game. But no you haven't found what I'm looking for. I'm thinking of a direct tangible link.

1. Silent Hunter III is played by P_Funk at SubSim.
2. P_Funk at SubSim suggested Total Annihilation as the subject of a 6 Degrees of Seperation.

DONE!

P_Funk · 11-02-06, 07:42 PM

Very cute.

Alright it's hint time. I'll give you an entire degree! It involves the Grey Wolves mod.

Hmmmmmm . . . kinda resembles an Alexander/Gordian knot answer. :p

I just spent the last number of hours finding all the good TA content on the internet I could find. I'm getting all nostalgic now. Truly it is the greatest RTS ever.

I think when I need a break from Beta testing GWX I'll get right back into TA. Rope my friends into it. Maybe some guys here are old TA players.

I wonder who still has their old TA disks?

Biggles · 11-04-06, 12:37 PM

I have it! I'l never get rid o' it! And no, I don't think TA has the best musical score in the gaming history, I know it has the best musical score in the gaming history. Probably the first RTS going with a orchestra instead of that old rock music. I always turns the music up on maximum every time I play just to hear it. I really love one of the scores: I think it's called "The march unto death" and begins with a violin, and then another one comes in, and after a while the other instruments joins in for a dramatical battle-soundtrack. Surely this is the best RTS ever created. Because who can think it's not dramatic when you build up your base, you construct a radar, sees a big dot on the map closing in with high speed, and before you can say "I think CORE is attacking with a huge army of "The Can" and I'm done for", the CORE attackes with a huge army of "The Can" and you are done for. At the same time the music changes dramaticly and your pulse is speeding up, and for every explosion the screen actually shakes.

Nostalgia? Oh yes. And I don't think TA has ever been dull or boring, because no battle is the other like, and you know it's always a pleasure when you just have finished building that 3rd Big Bertha and is ready to unleash hell.

Can you say the best RTS ever created? I can (And have said that at least ones in this post

)

.................I rest my case....

Best RTS ever? That is a tie between Command & Conquer and Soldiers: Heroes of WW2.

But what is this thread about? Tell us!

Edit: Maybe Company of Heroes can be mentioned in the same class, although its never popular to bring new games into these discussions.
