C&C: Red Alert 2 Mental Omega 3.3.6 Released After 10 Years; Brings All 133 Missions
Version 3.3.6 of the popular Mental Omega mod for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 - Yuri's Revenge has been released. This is the first full version of this project, as it introduces missing missions from the new story campaign.
We finally lived to see the release of the new version (3.3.6) of Mental Omega, the iconic mod for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 - Yuri's Revenge. The update number doesn't suggest it, but in reality this is a big event for this project. With the release of the patch, it has reached the form of a full version, finally including everything the developers had planned when they started working on the project. It took them 10 long years to get to this point.
First of all, version 3.3.6 introduces additional levels that complete the massive story campaign. A total of 133 missions are available, 97 of which are for single player and 36 for co-op mode. The story is based on Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 - Yuri's Revenge. It not only expands the storyline for Yuri's army, but more importantly enables us to experience the conflict from the perspective of Soviet and Allied forces.
Mental Omega is one of the most ambitious mods for Red Alert 2. In addition to the many times larger campaign, it offers an additional faction, increasing their number in the game to four. Each faction is enriched with new units, and additional variety is provided by a sub-faction system that allows for even greater variation in armies.
The new faction is called The Foehn Revolt. It is a Chinese paramilitary organization founded by the genius Yunru, whose goal is to liberate humanity from Yuri's influence. Units of this army are very powerful and advanced, but at the same time expensive.
The mod also offers 22 challenge maps for single player or two people in co-op mode. There's also as much as 651 maps for the skirmish mode (against AI) or multiplayer and 21 game modes.
The project also introduces numerous improvements to the gameplay and graphics. It significantly enhances the AI and offers several levels of difficulty, so both rookies and veterans can have fun. On the other hand, we can join the multiplayer via the fan network infrastructure CnCNet. The save system has also been fixed.
