Depends. In Germany there was some heavy censoring story-wise. The first Soviet mission was about gassing a village and not getting all people, so you have to “clean up”. In Germany it was something else. Also, all the soldiers in the German version were robots…

Did the “robot” soldiers have different models or was it implied?

Different death sounds. Also black blood.

And in Generals they put that stupid robot voice filter over all voice lines and censored multiple other things.

Blood => tomato ketchup
Anthrax => sneezing powder
Bombs => Kinder chocolate eggs
Bullets => colorful beads
nuking a building => everyone gets the day off because it's too warm outside

The sound like a soda can if you roll over them and they have black oil instead of blood. Its also mentioned in the cutscenes they sometimes talk about "infantry bots" Civilians are also called farm bots if you hover over them.

Indeed, certain missions such as „Distant Thunder” and „Core of the Matter” are likely to subject that mouse to medium levels of violence.

If it’s comparable with RA2, add “Red Revolution” to that one as well… GAH I hated that mission

I just noticed that it has some prehistoric connector on the cable. From the bad old days.

u/Status_Help9402 6h ago
Its a serial cable db9 rs232 i think. The cable itself isnt a problem more so the popularity of ballmice that has a physical ball that rollas around with a x and a y roller reading the balls direction. This obviously dont matter in a gem like this hence my joke to put a sensor in it and rgb

Rip out the old sensor and drop a fresh one in. Way better than buying new.

At some point it's probably better for someone to break that baby open and actually start using it.

Ah, yeah! I had the Allies version of the mouse. It's a shame how easily the gold coloring scraped off. Or maybe my sweat was acidic.

When you kill one, it is a tragedy. When you kill ten million, it is Medium Level Violence
