Command & Conquer: Generals – Zero Hour - Are You Ready ?

Strategic games that we used to sit in for hours were always inspired by us during childhood and adolescence and those games enjoyed great popularity in the past such as Red Alert games, Stronghold and other great strategic games.
Most of the games at that time depended on ancient wars with swords and arrows, and even games such as Red Alert, which relied on traditional patterns of strategic wars.
Until the Command and Conquer game came, which was a quantum leap in the world of strategic games, and despite the very early release of the game in 2003, it had many advantages that make it a valid game for the time being.

The story of the game

Perhaps the game does not have a clearly defined story and no one has touched on it, but the game was a qualitative transition in direct wars between nations, so all you have to do is choose the army that you will fight with.
Whether it is the Chinese army, the US Air Force, or the Land Forces, each army has its own style of play and distinctive weapons.
The game starts with choosing your favorite army and then immediately starts building your own rules and starts playing.

Gameplay

As we mentioned previously, the gameplay here is very special due to the diversity of weapons and the variety of weapons, as the game will start building your own rules.
From airports, ground forces bases, etc., and perhaps other games, you will not need to build institutions to bring in resources. All you have to do is concern the energy institutions.
That you will need some military equipment.
Next, you'll start making tanks, military planes, and infantrymen being pulled out and preparing for battle or defense.
You will have several advantages, for example, by extracting special forces that perform specific missions and the greater strength you will have
It is building a nuclear weapons arsenal that will be able to almost destroy the text of your enemy's forces within a few seconds.
But beware if someone uses you against that weapon, you will be at risk of loss, so try to divide your army and make them spaced apart.

Game disadvantages

The game map is not good enough to match such a war.
It is also very easy to destroy your army and all that you built in seconds through nuclear weapons, especially as you expand in your area
Not big enough.
Unfortunately the game is free from seas or naval wars where there are no ships, submarines, etc., which made me search for another integrated game.
There is a huge difference between armies where you will find yourself playing only with the US Air Force or the Chinese Army.

The map

The maps in the game are multiplayer and include many environments but not large enough.
The map is also hidden sometimes, and if you want to discover a certain part, you must put some soldiers or equipment in it.
It even shows you a certain circle.
This may be a major shame for a few people, and I have that personally, so you will be surprised that there are enemy soldiers and tanks close to you.
It attacks you without noticing it.
Perhaps this option was because the game has an air force, as you will be able to bomb any tanks trying to attack you early, and there will be no advantage for the opponent.
It also makes it a simulation of reality, and also makes you create special equipment and soldiers for reconnaissance.

Graphics

As for the game released nearly 15 years ago, the graphics are very good and I compare them to Far Cry 1, which was a very big move in the world of graphics
At that time, most of the games graphics were almost cartoonish.
You will be able to play the game even on the weakest device that exists and without any problems and perhaps the real problem
In acoustics, where most of them were faded and never mimic reality.

Finally, we say that the game provided us with great pleasure over the years, and that the company stops developing it and producing new parts, which is very sad.
