There are some people developing "D.O.R.F." rts game. It looks a lot like somebody wanted to make for KKND what Tiberian Sun is for C&C: an isometric sequel.
Especially when they were pretty campy, like in C&C and RA, haha. There's a really nice charm about them. I never played the first KKND, but I loved the second one, playing co-op on the PS1.

The mutants are actually just bogans that evolved due to the harsh climate/environment as well as domesticating monsters. Contrary to common belief, these monsters are not products of nuclear radiation, but actually an evolutionary response to the harsh climate/environment of the Outback - they are hostile to humans, but not to bogans since most of these monsters instinctually recognize and maintain a symbiotic relationship as well as recognize evolutionary traits in bogans that are present with themselves creating a sort of familiarity.
OMG I had totally forgotten about this game until this video! I used to play it loads too, " consider it dead" lol memories!!! haha awesome ! cheers for the upload mate! Think if i get some free time I'll give this a go again!

@@LPetal86 Still, it would be fun if there was an Fallout RTS similar to KKND. With factions like the Brotherhood of Steel, the Enclave, NCR, Legion or even Super Mutants all fighting for control of the Wasteland. And all of them would have unique and bizarre troops, war machines and super weapons.

Series 9 Agricultural robots. They went rogue after the crops got ruined by the war and now they see humans (mutated or not) as pests to exterminate. Their infantry units were more expensive but more durable and too big to crush.
@@Sonlirain yeah something like this. i just remeber one mission as evolved where i defended the ruins of my base with two elite rokettrooper and gained my money with one little pig...those two boys repelled attack after attack and i rebuild my base slowly... i think this was the longest mission in any strategy game i ever played ^^
KKND 2 : Krossfire , they added the "Series 9" . Wiki goes like this : "The "Series 9" are advanced farming robots that have become sick of the Survivors destroying their crops and have taken it upon themselves to destroy all organic life, so they can finally farm in peace. When the Series 9 finally gained their own conscience, they became aware that the earlier robots (Series 1-8) were still following their last orders from the humans. The Series 9 robots decided to shut down the other model lines in order to complete their goal. They were active during the first war, but realized that pitchforks and wheelbarrows weren't going to do much against tanks and mutant Mastodons. They took the time to research Earth's old weapons and wars from history in order to adapt their tools to become formidable armaments. They are farming robots, and as such much of their weaponry resembles farm tools, like the Seeder, Weed Killer, and Spore Missile. This faction is new to the franchise."
there is a trick when we use spider. we can hold shift button and click on the attack area left and right to cancel out the attack delay so the spider would attack insanely fast.
there's a trick using the game's second infantry unit select all, hold alt to shoot and cancel then target the enemy all units will shoot at the same time like a "spike" in GW
Ironically the first version just spamming Shotgunner and Swat can get you through any difficulty. They are just too cost effective, high damage and self sustaining once they are veteran ranked.
There is no need to destroy enemy oil pumps, you can just extract oil from any oil pump, ther is basically no ownership functionality wise only color. Just let the enemy build the oil pumps for you.
I remember I could not figure out first back then how to research for new units :D I think i made half of the campaign with the basic units. I was cursing so much. Then came the big revelation :D Anyways, I really loved this game even though at that time it was considered as a c&c clone.
Offtop comment- Im searcing for one old game and always failing on finding it. Maybe I can try my luck here since its a very great old games channel. So what I remember is that the game begins with a cutscene where MC and his girlfriend are riding a horse near some creepy castle and they get attacked by some monsters, ending up with the girl getting captured. So the MC gets into the custle to find her. First stage is in the castle yard. Game has some sort of puzzles and also monster fighting mechanics. Also I remember MC having brown ponytail and graphics was like it was made of play-doh.
little big adventure? i don't remember the story, but the game play was isometric, you had all these stances like sneak/run/fight to approach different situations. also one of the very first games i played on cd-rom back then.

This was my Jam back in the day love this game
This was released around the same time as Red Alert, no wonder there are so many similarities.
wow the text during the briefings is amazing
I love the acting and the typing/script on the right hand side during briefings, it's hilarious if you actually read it
Legendary game! Had it for PS1. The game have soo much potential to challenge C&C but it wasted it's opportunity. Thanks for playing.
