Cast List?[edit]
Would it not be helpful to add a full cast list? The FMV sequences are arguably a core element to the C&C franchise.
Also, I'm new to this so apologies if this is redundant but I'll be editing the line in the Plot subsection that previously read "Like all other Command & Conquer real-time strategy games, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 contains two separate campaigns, with distinct story lines, one for each playable faction." It'll now read "Like all previous..." as most C&C games after this point had three separate campaigns.Grundfuttockk (talk) 04:43, 26 April 2018 (UTC)

WW studios vs. WW Pacific[edit]
All of the game boxes, game discs, splash screens, in-game menus, and other materials credit RA2 and Yuri's Revenge to Westwood Studios, not Westwood Pacific. If someone wants to claim that WW Pacific made the game, then provide some reliable citations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.70.13.107 (talk) 06:28, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
- WW Pacific did not have their own logo until 2002 (when they were renamed to EA Pacific). Have a 2003 post-mortem on C&C Generals which shows that the studio was the same on both titles, and have the respective credits of Red Alert 2 and Generals, showing largely the same people. Hence it is Westwood Pacific. Case closed. 88.207.56.116 (talk) 09:35, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, doing so would be what we call original research. Lucky for you, there are actually reliable sources that confirm this, e.g. [1] [2]. I will amend the article accordingly to hopefully stop this pointless edit war. Regards SoWhy 09:59, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
