[Gen.Kenobi]

Hello everyone! The ModDB Mod of the Year 2009 popularity contest has reached the second stage and now it's time to vote for the best mods from a list of 100 released mods and 100 unreleased mods. At CnC Guild, one mod has reached this stage: Contra. It's in the list of unreleased mods, dispite the release of Contra 007 in august. At Petrolution, the Petroglyph games division from Revora, Sci-Fi at War has also advanced to this stage, so any votes for it is also appreciated. And from our partners that supported us in the first stage, PPM has two hosted mods which advanced as well, like Tiberium Essence and Twisted Insurrection (the first Tiberian Sun mod to ever reach this stage on any mod of the year event).


So, check the full list HERE and cast your vote to:

-> Contra (Upcoming -> Command & Conquer Generals Zero Hour)


and the following mods from our partners:


Petrolution:
-> Sci-Fi at War (Upcoming -> Star Wars: Empire at War - Forces of Corruption)

Thanks for your time and for your vote!

lol Contra as mod of the year? seriously? They dont even have any cameos of their stuff its neigh unplayable and badly balanced. Just because they have some cool models that really doesn't mean anything...

[Gen.Kenobi]

You got be kidding with me, right? Contra is one of the bests C&C Generals ZH Mods...it has 7 realeses and they still working on the realese number 8.

You talk as a guy that never played Contra. Play it before making such affirmations.

[Alias]

Contra is boring as it plays through so slowly and you can't play it in multiplayer because the balance is so bad.

The content isn't bad per se, but rather the way it's implemented.

Contra isn't so bad as long as you remember its balanced pretty differently to most mods.
I have had some very fun matches of contra although the bugs did turn me away eventually.
The balance isn't so bad as most teams have plenty of unfair units, which evens it out in a twisted kind of way.
Its one of those mods which is made to be pure fun.

I played Contra up to version 006, after that I left it aside since it bored me out (a touhouhard or even nintendohard RTS? Not my cup of tea <.<).

[Anubis]

Actually contra is rather balanced atm. Each side has it's powerfull units and disadvantages well thought, and imo it's one of the few mods out there that had the balls to do something different for a change, and not same same zero-hour addon stuff 90% of the mods do. To me that is what is boring. The same ideea played over and over again. Contra just brings more color to an already monochromic looking community. My full respect to it and it's team.

[Zeke]

Contra also pushes the boundaries on what's possible for ZH, that alone makes them one of the best mods out there.

[Stalker]

Contra's bugs and balance and has greatly improved in the latest Release (007) you should really try it.

There is no reason for me not to vote for Contra, it has a new and fun style of gameplay with lots of new ideas combined with top quality models, textures and effects

They dont even have any cameos of their stuff its neigh unplayable

what?

[Erik]

For me every single cameo in that mod is transparent...

[Shiro]

Then you obviously do not have the English version of Z:H.

if you want mod that most push the possible boundaries of ZH, play Beng's LaserDemoNuke mod.

the strangest thing is.. why contra is on upcoming mods? it already have a lot of releases!

[Shiro]

One of the few actual good things about Beng's mod were dogs.

[Stalker]

I guess you didn't install it properly. Most mods need some folders renamed to work correctly with non-english versions.

The newest version (007) however has a launcher which does this automatically

the strangest thing is.. why contra is on upcoming mods? it already have a lot of releases!

I guess they never uploaded it to ModDB, thats why it's still -TBD- (IIRC Contra has only recently joined ModDB)

*faceplam*

i would admire contra for its art but lets face it , the game play is far more restricted compared to ZH or SW or ROTR

I just don't have the ability to tech up and get awesome units , i have to sit there for 30 mintues waiting to get to rank 5

Just to try some ridiculously OP unit that Pwns everything? do i notice a problem here?

Its nub friendly , i would never use contra for competitive gaming unless i was the nuke general which is the only one with that loose ZH game play.

Seriously its a giant middle finger to people who actually like to play online.

i cant just sit here for 50 - 60 mintues just to finish up a game |:


however if you want to comp stomp that's a different story

I personaly think its a mod for 10 year olds

try fighting china at the hardest difficulty especially kwai.

God I hate those sniper cannons......

[Comr4de]

Come on guys, everyone is entitled to their own opinion but bashing other mods isnt one of the things we tolerate.

Contra to me is really great since it was fun to play with friends and I ought to say that the crazyness of each faction IS what made the game "balanced?" in one respect as EVERYTHING in that mod was crazy.

It's not about how big it is, but how you use it ..

Sniper Cannon upgrade for Modular TC is my fav weapon in the mod. . Its damn awesome.....although the deployment requirement is a bit of a pain the concept is great

[ComeOn]

I agree with Comr4de. Contra is a pretty interesting mod in its own little way.
However, I WILL NOT vote for it because of its players commenting (negatively) on ShockWave's reders.

That's what she said

Contra is alright but I agree that it isn't the best for multiplayer. Still great for lulz though.

Also why is it upcoming? It's in its 7th release I believe?

[Raven]

Contra AI is pretty tough too. I remember playing 005 with friends against the AI and it was quite challenging and damn fun.

It's even better in 007. It is a unit now (no upgrade) and it deploys faster :-)

It isn't that crazy imho. Apart from the Generals Images it's pretty serious now imho (no Terrorists riding a Tomahawk any more)

Also I think it's awesome in multiplayer.
The main reason I prefer Contra over Shockwave or other mods (in MP) is the fact that you can't just turtle and spam superweapons (unless you're Superweapon General ofc). I'm mostly playing 3-Players-FFA in LAN games and in Contra you need promotion for better units so there is a guaranteed battle from the start on. No boring turteling for 20 minutes.
In the end the games last longer but that isn't a bad thing for me.

I guess opinions are where different here.
Lol am I the only one who likes Contra AND Shockwave?

[R3ven]

nope im with you on that

[ComeOn]

nope im with you on that

Well, I'm in the club too.

[Gen.Kenobi]

It's on upcomming because they are working on the 008 realese.
