Well done, Cavedog.The following codes can be used in any game mode, including single player skirmishes and campaign missions, as well as in multiplayer mode.
#STEAM TOTAL ANNIHILATION KINGDOMS PATCH#
If you've downloaded the latest patch and the extra units from Cavedog's website, you may feel short-changed, as you'll already have resource-sharing, 20 new units and a few new maps Core delivers 50 or so new units and two new campaigns and a mission editor.

If you're still getting used to the original units you may find Core Contingency tieavy going it seems to take ages to learn what tactical advantage can be gained from such a bewilderingly large arsenal. The hover-based craft make up the bulk of the new units, but notable lovelies include the Maverick (top-looking ARM Kbot), the Podger (multiple mine-layer), Decoy Commanders and the mammoth CORE Krogoth, a heavily-armed walking nightmare. It would be nice to be able to alter the ten ain, perhaps by digging trenches or building platforms on the sea, but maybe we'll see that in the sequel. Conversely, the urban wasteland is fun and offers a lot of scope for multiplayer battles. The new terrains are a mixed bag the water terrain can be dull, and on Luschworld units get obscured in the dense foliage. Even factories can be assigned to squads-their combined output is automatically born into the same team. For the serious multiplayer, there are new shortcut keys. This lends the game a new diplomatic angle where lone players can ill-afford to take on pairs alone. The best enhancement is resource sharing: allies can now pool their energy and metal reserves as well as mapping information. Multiplayers and skirmishers will get the most from this pack. It can be a soulless advance, but persevere through the waterborne missions and they do get steadily better. But if you found yourself skipping them and playing skirmish games instead, you'll probably do the same here. Don't be deceived - the missions are easily on a par with the originals. The new missions and environments are well-constructed, and although the AI still seems a bit sticky they offer a strategic wealth of options. While there are two new campaigns (one for each side), progression is a steady grind, with no real depth of involvement - due in part to boring between-mission narration (no cut-scenes here). The main weakness of TA was in the single-player campaign missions, and it's the same here.
#STEAM TOTAL ANNIHILATION KINGDOMS DOWNLOAD#
Many have been available for download for a while already, but with over 70 extra vehicles and buildings for single and multiplayer games, you wonder what Cavedog could possibly do with the next add-on that could make TA any better.Īctually, that's easy. It has more units than the entire C&C series. But Core Contingency, the first expansion pack for Cavedog's classic, is heaven-sent. Fans lapped up the lacklustre Red Alert: Counterstrike, just as fans of TA will lap this up.

Whether you see add-ons as rip-offs depends on how much you liked the original game.
