Welcome to our first C&C game design analysis video! Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 has a controversial method of resource collection - Here, collectors / prospectors mine from static ore nodes, while most players prefer the harvesters from Red Alert 2 as well as most other CnC games that mine from ore fields / Tiberium fields wide spread across the map. Are the ore nodes in RA3 really that bad of a design decision, or have we fallen prey to pre-established conventions? Let's examine whether the economy systems of RA2 or RA3 is better, and go over some advantages of RA3's ore nodes from a game designer's perspective!
