You could unlock a gun that sprayed grenades everywhere

Or a rocket launcher that fired short range ballistic missiles

That just sounds like so much explosive fun.

I haven't played C&D in like 6 years

That's all the mercs games were

They were just explosion sandboxes

everyone remembers command and conquer but not so many remember westwoods blade runner 😦 makes me sad

Mercs 2 on PS2 was glitchy as fuck

You could throw like 7 C4 packs on top of eachother and meelee them

So the physics would bug out and create a literal tornado of C4 that would randomly stick to different parts of your surroundings

Then you'd set them off and buildings all around would start collapsing

Sounds like an improvement

And you'd watch your faction rating just plummet all across the board.

Mercs got the sandbox formula right.

All the helecopters had magnetic winches on them

So you could pick up a truck full of troops and flail them into the side of skyscraper

Just cause 3 makes you manually winch shit to your helicopter and throw off the center of balance

Wasn't there a Mercs 2 marketing stunt in the UK where they found a random gas station and set up barbed wire and sandbags around it while giving out free gasoline?

yes!

I remember that!

they ran out in like an hour

caused massive tailbacks in central london iirc

lol

"The game was generally well-received, scoring a 72/100 game ranking and the stunt is still talked about today as “a perfect piece of PR“."
