'Cause it is a great add-on, enhances TS very well and provides a great addition to the story.

It enhances and fixes a few things, such as the artillery mysteriously hitting moving targets, and the addition of a GDI artillery unit is also good. One bad point though is that, apart from damage, it is the same as the Nod Artillery. GDI is more a power-based side so I would have liked to see the Juggernaut have a shorter range than the Artillery but more damage against heavy armour. And the Cyborg Reaper, although cool, is not a good and balanced addition to the Nod side. The limpet drones are completely useless. What the use is of being able to see the enemy's base (which you probably can anyway if you scouted right) and slowing down a single unit, I don't see. It would've been better to use the same principle for a mobile stealthed defence turret, or maybe a HE mine. That way you would be able to set up a small sneak attack early (I did that in a mod once and it was great fun ). The mobile EMP and Stealth Generator are both nice though, but the problem is that there are not many situations where you would actually need them. So, overall, FS is not very good as far as expansions go.

Maybe its because we have the excellent YR to compare it to, it sucks, but it generally does.... why?

1: Barely enough new units to change the combat type.
2: No massive improvement on playability
3: Never ending, and highly annoying missions
4: That annoying blue computer face with its stupid over-testosteroned voice.... makes me want to stick a virus in it!!!

I like TS but it just seemingly doesnt compare to RA2, and FS certainly doesnt compare to YR.

Ever hear of the saying "Evolution instead of Revolution"?

No actually.... but i can guess what it means....
Does that mean i have to wait a million expansions for TS to be something comparable to RA2?

No, that means that the knowledge and experience gained from FireStorm made Yuri's Revenge a better product.

The Jug is an awful weapon. It's like 'Hey the Arty is too strong and people like Titans... *thinks* Mix 'em!'

The Reaper has a funny concept behind it, but is really too weird for me.

I am still one of the people saying the artillery is not overpowered...
