I was playing a skirmish with a buddy tonight and we noticed something very odd. He just got the game and didnt want to go head to head with me yet so we played against a brutal Chinese army. We both witnessed several Chinese goods trucks and collection buildings pop up at supply sites with NO construction bulldozer in sight. We had several apachees over the supplies on guard, and out of nowhere a building just popped up. Any known issues with the game that would cause this?

Are you sure that the buildings popped up completely built and functional? The trucks too? Otherwise: the buildings popup because the other player has decided to build there, but the "build-o-meter" will stay at 0% until a construction dozer arrives. /Nisse e "JM" <n...@na.com> wrote in message news:s1ltkvk7loe0ghd436ms7m6jqgks5dohrq@4ax.com... > I was playing a skirmish with a buddy tonight and we noticed something > very odd.

Trucks appeared with the building. Once the building was at 0%, another time it was completely functional.

I should clarify that the time the building was at 0% there was no truck, but the other time they both just popped up.

I've experienced other rts-games where the computer cheats indeed. This because it's easier to cheat than to build an AI that can compete with a human brain. /Nisse "JM" <na@na.com> wrote in message news:s1ltkvk7loe0ghd436ms7m6jqgks5dohrq@4ax.com... > I was playing a skirmish with a buddy tonight and we noticed something > very odd.

C&C franchise has been known for cheating in skirmish mode when playing at the hardest level. This goes back to the original C&C, where all the tiberian silo magically fills up with one dumpster.
